I just released an EP of experimental electronic/noise tracks I made ALL THE WAY BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL! Yeah, this is about 25 years late, but here it is anyway. If you like very weird, audience-hostile "music," you might enjoy this. Or you might hate it anyway, I don't know! ditto.fm/the-knew-ep

Wife and I took the day off and decided that instead of going out, we would DoorDash breakfast burritos and have a nice relaxing day at home. So of course we decided to binge Chernobyl. Holy shit

New podcast episode! Part 2 of my interview with @espressocat.bsky.social, and this time it's almost entirely about screenwriting! What makes screenwriting different? Why's the Matrix script so great? Find out this week on Make Games, Drink Coffee! www.makegamesdrinkcoffee.com

It's basically restating the post text, but with a picture.

I listened to this today and I had to text my real-life friends who appreciate good music to let them know about it. That's how good it is. After a decade of releasing only singles and EPs, nelward has finally dropped a full-length album, and it is everything an album should be! I love it!

I'm no expert on internet security but this very, VERY bad. This is spam/phishing (???) sent by someone at a random email address, but it appears to Gmail to be signed by costco.com. The contents of the email look totally legitimate, but it's missing my member ID.

I finally did it! I activated the cat essence and now my cats pay out 13X. It would have been a lot cooler if I could have pulled this off BEFORE I hit endless mode, but that seems nearly impossible. Anyone have favorite builds in this game? Cat/witch is fun, but miner/ore/cloth/dame seems best.

not many people know this, but Barilla has a line of 3D printed pasta it sells mostly to the fine dining industry. I don't want the pasta. I want the pasta printer

a variety of 3d printed dried pastas in basket shapes, whorls, little vases, etc

a vase shaped 3d printed pasta in a purple goo with little globs of green stuff

the pasta printer, a big bulky black machine that prints pasta onto glass sheets

Please normalize this as a valid take. Sure, it would be nice if a lot of movies targeted towards kids/families were better, but let’s acknowledge that they can be fun to watch simply for looking awesome as long as the rest isn’t offensively bad.

It is absolutely crazy that it takes about the same amount of time from pressing Play in Steam to being able to load and play a saved game in Doom: The Dark Ages and Stardew Valley.

Unionization would help, but if we really want to reform the AAA part of the game industry in the USA, mandating board seats for employee representatives (see Germany's "Supervisory Board"), limiting stock grants as executive compensation, and making stock buybacks illegal would go a lot further.

Two images of Princess Zelda from Breath of the Wild. The left looks normal, with the text "3DLSS off." On the right, she's blurry and distorted with red and blue, like when you try to watch a 3D movie without wearing the special glasses. Text on this half reads, "3DLSS On."

I'm a veteran 2D artist and art director for games with 20 years of experience. Worked at Mojang. I know games inside and out, and I need studio work. I'm a hard worker and right now I can barely pay rent *and* am going out of my mind with boredom and the waiting. Thank you

my cover for the game I also art directed "Space Jam: a new legacy: the game". Bugs Bunny, LeBron James and Lola Bunny against a background of an evil robot enemy from the game

Early concept art of how the characters should look in-game

My pixelart cover for Transformers Galaxies. Shockwave holding Devastator in the palm of his manipulative hand

A painting of mine when I was in art school. It's about how silly formal dress code seemed to me when I was 20
