I really really want to make an action sort of modern take on the fmv: using 3d animation blending as well as stuff like inverse kinematics to allow players to switch branch as they approach them with a reasonable margin for error. Imagine John Wick level choreo in a game #gamedev

telling us to enjoy the camps is fine but we apparently can't say "tranny" anymore even though it's OUR word.

Don't sleep on Relooted, an Africanfuturistic heist game about reclaiming artifacts from Western museums. Here's a chat with two of its creators, who are putting their time and money into building up the games scene in South Africa.

The trans artist barely scraping by on itch io is making the art you want but they don't have the budget of a small country to work with so you turn your nose up at it and beg for scraps from the war crimes corporation

There is also a weird thing with wanting more games to feature diverse viewpoints, then acknowledging indies are doing that, so basically what you want is a big budget game to do what indies are doing... And you gotta give this up.

DOOM '98 Imagined what if id Software released an additional entry in the Doom series in 1998, using a technological mix between id Tech 2 and GoldSrc engine. Going for the blend of fantastical and grounded, which would be in vein of Half-Life and System Shock 2.

Concept art is the most poisonous place to use Al. That's when your creative vision is the most fragile and undeveloped. When you see what the Al made and say, "That looks cool, I want my game to look like that!" it's like it's secretly swapping out your baby with its own.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottomA nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."A mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

And then you either hit 40 or a level of stress so bad your systems cannot cope, burn out so hard they stop working and will likely never work again and suddenly your low support needs neurodivergence is a high support needs disability.

To most people, rape is the sexual violation of another person's body. Cisgender supremacists routinely invert this commonplace understanding and repeatedly act as if autonomy over one's own body, for trans people, is an act of rape against the cisgender concept of the idealised sexual body.

It is not appropriate for record-keepers to keep records of trans people's sex assigned at birth and sideline their gender. I have a pretty decent base of knowledge on this topic and I cannot think of a situation where assigned sex is more important, or even equally important

I’m a trans woman in my forties. Growing up without social media—and during Section 28—I knew nothing about transness and I knew no-one like me. I almost didn’t make it; I dread to think how many didn’t. You can’t tell me that returning to this state is not an intended effect of this proposed ban.
