As a self-published indie game developer, I think about this Simpsons scene pretty much every day. I am Lisa. And I am also Stacy Lovell. #gamedev #indiedev

Been a tad quiet lately - I've had my head down on my extraction fps! The extraction loop with missions, inventory system with attachments is working (1000s of weapon combos), new ray-based audio (atmospheric af). It's getting more fun to play now too 😆 #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Implemented a weather + day/night system, improved locations (lots of shiny new assets!) plus some other internal stuff/better UI/inventory. #godot #godotengine #gamedev

Been working on a few things for my open-world extraction shooter lately: - Environments are feeling a lot richer now - More natural looking locomotion - New decals and particles - Got core gameloop in and am putting together the first chapter of the story #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

Palestinian game dev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.com is announcing the promised second crowdfunding campaign for his beautiful Dreams on a Pillow - but @safety.bsky.app has decided you can't know about it and marked his entire account as spam. Another obstacle in him just telling his story via games.

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X. I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!). So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism

in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.

I think of this a lot

Poem reading
In order for me to write poetry that isn't political
I must listen to the birds
and in order to hear the birds
the warplanes must be silent

Reddit needs a bot, like the one that flags AMP links, that detects when a post title uses "someone" or "somebody" and encourages the user to include the person's name instead. If it's worth sharing what they did, it's worth sharing who they are

Been refining locomotion and AI behaviour - took a few snaps from the session. Also testing a new build of OpenWorldDatabase that simplifies the editing workflow while keeping everything intact (multiple LoD thresholds, easy networking, minimal setup). #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn aerial view landscape. It depicts an apple orchard in bloom in the centre, allotments to the left and sheep in their field at the bottom. Train tracks go past the top of the orchard and allotment.

Sewn train tracks past an apple orchard (to the left).

The British state getting into bed with Palantir is just incredibly blackpilling, especially since it is being done by a Labour government who are composed of the exact sort of people that Palantir's owners and operators openly say they wish to drive from power forever! Inept self-loathing fools.

ngl i genuinely kinda love that the voice actor seems like they totally flubbed their line here and started his read again, and instead of trimming the audio they were just like "fuck it, subtitle it and pretend it was intentional"

I want people to remember that this never became anywhere near as functional as VRChat, which is free and more or less entirely populated with user-made content that the makers usually charge $25-50 for. Capitalism does not and cannot drive creativity.

Just a little PSA - don't make the same mistake I did! Most of the people who contacted me turned out to be scammers and the couple who I did pay were clearly using AI. You live and you learn I guess. I'll only take referrals with fleshed out portfolios going forward.
