Working hard to get a publisher demo shipped out for our prototype, drinking some Monster Rio Punch. Duran Duran's "Hungry Like The Wolf" from their classic album Rio starts playing in my head. www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6wV...

Today we make the announcement that we are proudly an AI Last company. Effectively immediately, we will be making no changes to the way we work or the tools we use. We have brought in a special consultant - Ned Ludd, who will be helping us with this transition.

ALL HANDS is a couch coop sailing game that combines elements of games like Journey and Death Stranding.   Work together to master everchanging winds in a post-revolutionary solarpunk world. We are looking for publishing! Hit us up! #PitchYaGame #Solarpunk #CouchCoop #WorkerOwned

I cannot stress how important Rebecca has been for trans gamedevs. I wouldn't be here if not for her and her wife. Help if you can.

An amazing "NORMAL" success story! There is way too much focus on making it big and selling your game studio for millions. Thanks, not interested. We actually do want to make games. Security and enough time to also have a life is what we need. Thanks Don Daglow for an inspiring talk.

I just keep telling myself that we're almost there. The irony of making a Solarpunk game in 36 degree heat... Good things are cooked in ovens, right? #indiegames #solarpunk #couchcoop #heatwave

After a brief 'clinic' in rotational math (please, I don't want to talk about it) We can finally turn our heads in game.  Progress marches ever onwards.  Towards Gamescom. #solarpunk #Indiegames #behindthescenes #coopgames

We've upgraded our production value to bring you this higly polished and sincere insight into our development process as we try to get our game in order in time for #Gamescom. More documentary content coming soon - so look forward to that? #BehindTheScenes #Solarpunk #couchcoop #indiegames

Elder millennial conducts field research and comes dangerously close to quoting the Lonely Island circa 2011.  We are all on (the same) boat, if you think about it. May as well at least be a cute indie game that you play on a couch with someone cool.  #Solarpunk #IndieGame #SoundDesign #CouchCoop

We are all about the wind, so we make shure that our designers are in the right headspace before diving into the project every day. Tell us if you know any games with cool wind mechanics for us to get inspired by! #fyp #solarpunk #indiegames #thefuture

Another early ALL HANDS concept. Quiet shapes and shadows passing over. We have some excellent blue-gray skies here in Berlin. If you could sail the winds anywhere, where would you go? linktr.ee/deepskygames #Solarpunk #CouchCoop #WorkerOwned #IndieDev #ConceptArt

The legs of our "Terrafoil" that will be taking you cross country with the wind in ALL HANDS.  Based on the Jansen linkage invented by Dutch artist Theo Jansen for his famous wind powered beach crawlers. Manufactured by the Homestead Wind Cooperative. #Solarpunk  #WorkerOwned #IndieDev #ConceptArt

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
the "stop doing math" meme except it says "STOP DRIVING CARS". the meme reads:
* PEOPLE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED IN CAGES
* YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for building ONE MORE LANE
* Wanted to travel large distances anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "TRAINS"
* "Yes please give me NO GREENERY. Please give me INFINITE PAVEMENT" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what Civil Engineers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the concrete and asphalt we built for them
(This is REAL Civil Infrastructure, done by REAL Civil Engineers):

?? [Image of a gigantic mega parking lot with thousands of cars]
??? [Image of the infamous I-405 gridlock photo with tens of thousands of cars not moving]

"Hello I would like [Image of a graph of global surface temperatures] climate please"
They have played us for absolute fools

I did a gamedev crime yesterday. I forgot that timer nodes are a thing. I rigged a timeline to be an adjustable timer. * Duration to 1 sec * Set rate by dividing 1.0 by some float * Set a bool on update that only fires once * Reset bool on complete, loop back into play AM GENIUS #GameDev

Hello Dear Folks, Before I say anything, I want to acknowledge that unpaid labor is a huge issue in our industry - and I personally believe that all labor should be paid a fair wage no matter the context. Our aspiration is and continues to be to fulfill this basic right. cont. below

Solidarity and condolences to the folks laid off from Marvel Rivals. Thankless, thoughtless, unforgivable institutional betrayal that is now the status quo in our industry. You all have many great things to give the world. You will get back on your feet, to spite the bastards.

Ok lets get into it then. Hi I'm Valentine, I was one of the employees who led most of the walkouts and who was part of the original group pushing for unionization at Blizzard, especially on the WoW team where I worked at the time.

One of my favorite things I recently special interested about - the malicious compliance of Otto Wagner's Vienna Secession government buildings. 'Oh, I will make the most neoclassical building you've ever seen!" (Dont tell them about the other shit)
