All the repeat-idea devs are chasing down sorting inventory or finding a needle in a haystack, yet the big indie release this week is a femme-coded cozy game that's (shocking!) an original idea

It's easy for me to say because I don't like 90% of Western AAA games but i truly think the western AAA games industry has been a mistake in the making since the Xbox 360 and this is just the chickens coming home to roost

True equality isn't when every demographic is perfectly represented in positions of acclaim and power, but when any demographic holding those positions in any proportion is unworthy of note because it is so clear that their position is unrelated to their demographic.
"When I'm sometimes asked 'When will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court]?' and I say 'When there are nine,' people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that."

🎉 HUGE WIN: Our boycott AI facial recognition surveillance campaign has pushed two of the most prominent venues using this dangerous, invasive stalker-tech to turn it OFF. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/f...
The image features a colorful, vibrant background transitioning from bright blue to deep red, creating a gradient effect. In the center, a bold black rectangle contains the text "WE DID IT!" in white uppercase letters. Below this, another rectangular area highlights information related to the context of a campaign regarding AI surveillance in bars. It reads: "FOLLOWING THE ARTIST PLEDGE, TWO MAJOR CASTRO BARS DID THE RIGHT THING & CUT OFF AI SURVEILLANCE," also in white uppercase letters.

To the left, there is a photograph of the exterior of a bar named "BADLANDS," which is a video dance bar located in San Francisco. The building has a wooden facade, large windows, and a sign above the entrance displaying the bar's name in bright red letters. The photograph shows the entrance area with a white vehicle parked in front. Positioned to the right of the photograph, there is additional text that indicates the source of the information: "SOURCE: THE SF CHRONICLE." An arrow points towards the text and a colorful zig-zag pattern in purple, blue, and yellow adds visual interest around the edges of the image.

A red poster with a white logo (a polygonal heart lifted by 2 hands) and the title "United Videogame Workers – Hardship Fund", followed by this copy:

"UVW-CWA stands for every game worker: for those still employed and fighting for union contracts and those who have been callously treated as disposable by executives who've never shipped a title. 

We are proud to announce our launch of a hardship fund for game workers across the US and Canada who have been subjected to layoffs. If you are a game worker in need of support, please apply."

If you're really mad about the slew of studio layoffs, go buy a game on itch.io. Make it a regular part of your experience as a gamer to find a few games without publishers and buy them from non-Steam channels as your days pass. Make it more affordable for smaller, indie titles to succeed.

Pretty damning condemnation of Phil Spencer's batting average with his acquisitions after it's all said and done when it's the game they acquired years before the rest of their Game Pass portfolio that's apparently kept the rest of the division afloat all these years. Shocking? No, but still grim.
"Going forward, Xbox plans to take a more streamlined approach to games and studios, rather than the bigger-is-better approach. The company will focus more on franchises like Minecraft, from studio Mojang, which had previously operated more or less independently. Profits from Minecraft, considered one of the most successful video games in the world, were used to fund the rest of the gaming portfolio, according to the person familiar with Xbox operations."

Thomas Paine is my favorite founding father. He was famously abolitionist and one of the earliest voices to point out the hypocrisy of fighting for independence while keeping slaves. He also firmly believed that keeping any friendship which required compromising your morals made you a bad person.

Paine was arrested in France on December 28, 1793,[98][99] following the orders of Vadier.[8][100] Joel Barlow was unsuccessful in securing Paine's release by circulating a petition among American residents in Paris.[101] He was treated as a political prisoner by the Committee of General Security.[102] Sixteen American citizens were allowed to plead for Paine's release to the convention, yet President Marc-Guillaume Alexis Vadier of the Committee of General Security refused to acknowledge Paine's American citizenship, stating he was an Englishman and therefore a citizen of a country at war with France.[8][102][103][104] Paine protested and claimed that he was a citizen of the U.S. However, Ambassador Morris did not press his claim, and Paine later wrote that Morris had connived at his imprisonment.
