Incredible moment where Fox News puts up a graphic with all the reasons it opposes the DSA and why people should be afraid of them

A note from us on today's Sony news.
We are profoundly disappointed by Sony's decision to suspend physical games production in 2028.

Physical games are vital to games preservation, ownership, and consumer choice, values that have guided iam8bit since our first physical release in 2016.

Our commitment to these values remains unchanged. Long live physical media.

I'm looking for concept artists or illustrators working in gamedev who would like to share thoughts or comments (anonymous or attributed) regarding the use of GenAI as a reference tool in their process. If that's you, DM or email me! Details in bio.

There's an unsurprising tendency across leaders in the tech world (games included) to see art as merely part of something's production line, a box that needs to be ticked before copies can be sold. It's why AI is often justified as something that saves time, or saves money. But with art, that process is the point. The themes and ideas artists draw on, the way they iterate through those ideas with sketches, the work itself is what creates art. There are no shortcuts.

watched The Third Man for research. I think all movies should dedicate this much screen time to sewer infrastructure.
A large, long underground brick chamber, with many foreboding dark doorways leading into it. Grooves are cut into the gently sloping floor to guide the flow of water. A man in black stands in the middle distance.A dutch angle of a vaulted space, with a gantry running over a tunnel entrance. A ladder to daylight is visible. Policemen point flashlights down the tunnel towards the viewer, while a running man enters the room from a higher doorway.A long brick tunnel with light streaming in from the far end. A solitary figure stands silhouetted against the entrance.A vaulted brick chamber with water flowing through the lower half. A man dashes across gantries suspended from the ceiling.

Write that script. Finish that draft. Wrap up that project. The power of humanity is to share knowledge in the hope it inspires itself into being. Your insights are valuable as a beautiful aria or as color of a thunderous chorus. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima
The UK's new act blocks access to adult content without identification. Turns out, you only need a copy of Death Stranding and a phone to get around it.

Maybe video game level design theory needs less focus on architecture? And maybe I'm part of the problem? My bad.

you know i'm right
most gamers have held up Time To Finish as a unit of value in a game, but all this has done is lead to bloated, dull, over-padded games that stretch on for 40+ hours with little to say.

i propose a new measurement: Novelties Per Hour. this will incentivize increasingly short but dense games. someday you will be able to play for 30 minutes and have your mind blown 100 times in a row
