Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

I found this on their company site 😂 Paweł seems cool.
A vertical, 2-panel black and white comic strip.

TOP PANEL: A person on the left is smiling and is depicted with sparkles around their face. They're asking the person in the next panel "Paweł, can I assign you to this bug?"

BOTTOM PANEL: Paweł is on the right side of the panel, smiling and giving a thumbs up. He has responded to the other person's question with "No."

#MonthlyRecap 2026-09 - Went to some cookouts 🍻 - Saw Spider-Man: Brand New Day - Started playing Control Resonant #StarSpark / #GameDev: - Made a run history section - Enabled seeded runs - Gave characters unlock conditions - Simplified the damage formula - Character prologue and epilogue scenes
Movie poster for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. It shows a close up of Spider-Man's face looking off to the right with NYC reflected in his masks lenses. MJ is shown in the left most lense.The Steam capsule for Control Resonant. It shows a twisted, hiss infested version of NYC in the background. On the right, Dylan Faden wields a melee weapon known as Aberrant that changes into various other weapons.A screenshot of a crude drawing of Leo punching a training dummy. This is bad temp art on purpose. Below the picture is a text box with some text and a continue arrow.

Text on the bottom of the screen reads: "Leo is training diligently for the Star Spark Tournament."A screenshot from Star Spark showing previous runs the player has done in the codex. The runs are presented in rows consisting of the face frame for the character they played as, the date, the run time, and whether they lost or won the run.

TIL what may or may not be the oldest board game in recorded history is also, perhaps inevitably, now a roguelike
Oh!Ware on Steam slaps a little Slay the Spire onto a 5000-year-old game.

Can someone teach my cat the difference between correlation and causation? Just because you meow at me for an hour straight leading up to your scheduled 2pm feeding time doesn’t mean meowing at me led to me feeding you at your scheduled 2pm feeding time. Correlation is not causation, cat.

If you use #Firefox and don't like the Nova design: - go to about:config in the address bar - find browser.nova.enabled - toggle it to false It seems okay, but I preferred the previous design, so the toggle was nice to find.
The Firefox browser's config section, accessed via about:config.

It shows that a search bar at the top in which I typed in "nova" to find the setting "browser.nova.enabled" which I've toggled off.

Please stop coming into gamedev discords and showing off things "you made." It's disingenuous, makes you look bad, and a slap in the face to people who actually give a damn about what they're doing 🫠
Top of the image has text that reads:

"you made" or claude made?

And then there's a picture of a cat looking down into a camera lens.
