while you port and emulate games, I ported Jira to my PSP

There sure is a lot of AI slop to be found in Steam's Next Fest, huh?

My preference for a Big Achievement Update would be "We removed Achievements. Please proceed to enjoy your media without turning it into Work."

This one needs to get fixed asap, what an absolute nightmare going into launch. Pssst, valve guys who follow…

I never wanted to be a "in my day things were better" old lady... but I need to categorically state that technology actually WAS better. You are currently in the peak of designed obsolence, enshittification, personal intrusion and forced acceptance by lack of choice. Sure, the underlying tech...

pooping out of my mega burnout depression crash to remind artists that Procedural Generation (procgen) is not genAI.

Absolutely Blast Corps. Just imagine it with modern graphics, physics and sane controls!

This hasn't been a priority of any AAA studios for a long while and honestly it is you the end user who is footing the bill. The vast majority of games push your hardware through inefficiency rather than spectacle or quality. You can do a whole lot more with current pcs then you get.

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free. freedomtobuy.games

GAME, the German game industry trade association, released this *damn* good statement on the unjust NSFW game takedowns www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

It took me 3 minutes to lodge a complain against Collective Shout for falsely identifying as a charity. I encourage other Australian Game devs to do the same.

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help. this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls. we can beat them phone numbers and a script:

If you care about games, take a moment to read through this and take action. NSFW games might not be for you - they're not for me - but we cannot allow a small group of censorious extremists to decide that people can not make games about sex, about sexuality, and about the role of sex in our world.

This situation where payment processors get to decide what we can all play, read and watch is untenable. Doesn't matter what local laws around free speech are, what the folks running storefronts views are, a handful of companies now have the final say.
