The current job market genuinely makes me wonder: What’s the point? Like seriously, what is the point of any of this?

The community note on PlayStations post about removing physical media was removed, and then replaced with a perhaps even more scathing one 😂

Three things that consoles have going for them: 1. Exclusives (most of which are now on PC) 2. Cheaper than a PC 3. Physical Media The next gen looks to be doing away with 2 and 3 So, what exactly separates the next gen, from a PC? It’s way more closed off, with a handful of exclusives.

Please remember, this is tactical by Sony, they’re telling you this now before a deluge of bad news at other companies that they hope will make you forget about them

I have owned a PS5 digital since 2021 I no longer buy any games from the digital store, given they’re usually more expensive than physical. Soon, this will be the reality for everyone. The PS5 digital is one of my biggest cases of buyers remorse.

Does it play? @doesitplay.org · 01/07/2026
One thing should now be very clear: Ubisoft is not the biggest player pulling the strings of lobbies like ESA and VGE. Sony now has a prime interest from 2028 going forward that customers don't have the slightest say. SKG needs to succeed or we can kiss this hobby goodbye.

aaronawaygames.itch.io/enlisted For my Final Year of Game Design at Uni, I opted to develop a demo for an Immersive Sim. Trapped on Spaceport Roadhouse, you are the Enlisted, an unwilling participant in a large conspiracy that you must unravel if you wish to escape alive. #Solodev #Indie #Unity

Well, I've been affected by the Bungie layoffs, and I guess I'm now looking for work. I'm a senior narrative designer on Destiny 2. I'm going to thread a little list of stuff I've done on the game; normally I go out of my way to avoid attention, but today I'd appreciate reposts.

Today has been about getting to grips with objectives! (The template I used thankfully provided a nice springboard), As well as some animation work. Here we can see the Roadhouse Casino Vault, and as it opens, the player gets an optional objective: Rob the casino vault #Gamedev #Unity3D

RE Requiem first playthrough done! Fantastic game that combines the best elements of previous titles that somehow avoids a complete identity crisis, and while I’d consider it top three, I still loved RE Village and Re 4 Remake more Nonetheless, eagerly awaiting mercenaries and story DLC!

Indie game devs, when you use the slop machine in your game, it makes it clear to players that you don't give a fuck and just want money. Draw crappy but genuine art instead.
The two buttons meme where one option is pay a bit of money for art and the other is invalidate your entire creative work by using the slop machine. The person choosing is indie game devs

Giving some attention to the small assets…so small, octagonal shapes look like circles, no point going high poly for things this small! Turns out the normals on the faces were inverted, which explains why the text had to be inverted too, but I fixed that now 😂 #gamedev #blender3d

Presenting, Hope and Carry Munitions ltd! Back from Christmas break making more 3D models for the big Uni project ‘ENLISTED: The Roadhouse Incident’ Nice and easy one, simple shape meant UV unwrap was very easy, subsequent texturing was also super fun! #Blender #Gamedev #IndieDev #GameAsset

I’ve created a newer version of this model that is a dramatic overhaul since the old one has deeply unoptimised topology AND is also MASSIVE (I hadn’t cracked scaling yet) 😂 #Blender #Blender3D #gamedev #gameassets

And that’s PREY (2017) done! An extremely well made game, from a mechanics and level design perspective, it’s the video game equivalent of required reading.
