I checked out this Art of Ray Harryhausen book from the library and there was a lot of cool stuff in it. I learned a lot about early film special effects, too! Having fun isn't hard when you have a library card!

Cover of the book: a black and white illustration of a scimitar-wielding man fighting a skeleton on the top of a staircase

Adventures are not meant to be easy and without a good dose of unexpected. Not knowing what you will find as you set off is half the fun. Predictability would definitely not make for a great incentive to play, no matter how good the company you’re in is. #fantasymaps #ttrpg #dnd #cartography #noai

An elaborately framed fantasy map depicting many aspects of fantasy tabletop role-playing, no matter what your game of choice is. The ornate frame features a cast iron design with dragons.

Meta is upgrading the frame timing algorithm of Horizon OS with an overhaul called FrameSync, and it should result in more consistently visually smooth VR with noticeably fewer hitches. Read the technical specifics here:

If music was reviewed like videogames are: "This metal song has too much drums." "I wish this song wasn't metal, I like Rap. It should be Rap." "The song is good but they should hire a new singer" "The thing is they're using Gibson guitars, they need to switch to Fender and it'll sound better"

Hey everyone. The Allumeria Steam page is currently down because Microsoft has filed a false DMCA claim on it. They sent an email earlier today claiming that this screenshot infringes on their copyright. I am taking a moment to figure out what my path is going forward, will update soon. #gamedev

The 2026 Global Game Jam #GGJ26 was last weekend, so let's take a look at their historical data for engine usage. 📈 @godotengine.org is having a good run! #Godot is now firmly established as the #2 engine in game jams (correlated by #GMTKJam data), rapidly closing the gap with #Unity.

Graph showing the relative share of game engines used in Global Game Jam from 2018 to 2026.

It mainly shows a relative decrease of the Unity share from nearly 80% to 57%, while Godot grew from 1.4% to over 25%. There's a notable inflexion point in the year-on-year growth from Godot in 2024.

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs) Good tech. Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales) Bad tech.

🚨 NEW — Statement from the family of Alex Pretti: "We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital... 1/

"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man."
