I made a new video game that is too fun to be released to the public. No you can’t play it, but if you invest enough money in my company and build me a data center, maybe I’ll show you an unfinished demo of a different game that actually isn’t really that original or fun either.

Got one of those GBA SP style handhelds this weekend and when I learned it wasn’t too hard to port Godot games to it, I knew I had to try and put Upstream on it. It runs at >1 fps and has tons of visual glitches so not playable but the fact that it boots at all is so cool.

If you have never seen another planet in our solar system from a telescope, even a smaller/cheaper one, I highly recommend it. Tonight I had just enough time to set up mine on the roof of my building to look at Jupiter + Saturn for 30 minutes before the clouds arrived. It’s truly magical. #astronomy

And one other thing: we’re being told that AI is the only way to make games cheaper and faster, to pull us from this precipice of production nightmares the industry has found itself in. That it’s necessary. We put out roughly 3 motherfucking games a year, not touching the stuff. Skill issue.

It’s funny catching wind that my posts against generative ai have raised a few eyebrows and pissed a few people off. I’d love to be able to give a fuck, but first I’d need to steal a million fucks from other people, and have a machine randomly assemble small parts of those fucks together for me

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

I don't care to explore LLMs in my workflow, or discuss how so-and-so studio is using gen AI ethically maybe actually. Because at the end of the day, it is being pushed and weaponized by evil wealthy fascists. It is not, within the lives of myself and those I care about, a neutral technology.

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne: hushcrasher.substack.com/p/taxonomy-o... Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

A graph titled Scope of video games according to Hushcrasher Classification System. The Y axis shows Game Size (from 10 MB to 100GB), the X axis shows Credits count (sourced from Mobygames).

The clustered dots on the graph represent 4 distinct scale categories of games - Kei, Midi, AA, AAA. The larger correlation between the size and the credits means larger category of a game.
