Send us your experimental game — we wanna help you show it off! Get a chance to share your project onstage at GDC next spring, and help us inspire more people to make strange and experimental projects that change how we think about games. <3

Nolan's "Odyssey" poster with Matt Damon in a greek helmet and sword, it looks like he's angry and shouting something. The movie title and subtitles on the poster are replaced with "Where the fuck are my fucking keys" implying Matt Damon lost his keys and is very upset by it

I've been using Tidal for like the last year (because fuck spotify) and overall it's been a fairly analogous experience, but every once and a while Tidal will have the most insane and disjointed "Daily Discovery" playlist lined up. Today's started off with a club remix of "Down Under"

Rolled credits on 007. Overall a very enjoyable game, but I am so incredibly over pointless linear ledge-hopping/climbing/squeezing segments. Feels like some kind of Sony mandate that their single player games need to have hours of absolute pointless fluff mechanics

So you are telling humans literate in history, culture, arts, and writing are better at conceiving ideas than people getting all their ideas from the same box that also drives them insane?

Proud to announce our HARDSHIP FUND: uvw-cwa.org/hardship-fun... If you've been recently laid off and need support, we got you.
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."

Below the text is a link to the initiative (as in the post) and the UVW-CWA logo.

You know what Nintendo does when they have a surplus set of devs from cancellations or production ending? Put them on other projects. The ability to redeploy headcount while keeping teams together over time is like, the main strategic benefit of scale in the game industry
