ah yeah, totally feel that. especially tough place to be in when looking to move on to something else. like… a timeline for fixing design issues is basically indefinite.

From my very first hour that I spent with the game’s demo prior to release, I’ve always thought the worst thing going for ZP is that it’s a follow up to DE and (worse) it wants you to always remember that it’s a follow up to DE

As if I needed any more reasons to absolutely love @truegrittexture.bsky.social If you’re a digital artist, give them your money for their excellent tools. 👍

don’t know if this is helpful, but i’ve always talked about it like coding “behavior”

One of several many reasons to play this game: You can’t do everything because it doesn’t last forever. 🤤

We throw newbs in a pit. We tell them they must be competitive auteurs from day one, and that they’re disposable. Young professionals need space to learn. Apprenticeships and junior roles. They don’t know what they don’t know. We need entry level jobs. We’re moving in the opposite direction.

Valve should lower their rev share portion to 15% for the first $1m a game earns. Not because it would would help small teams survive to make more games (it would), but because they would earn more money in the long term.

Really digging the boon/curse mechanics and how they start stacking. Once I realized the “heavy rocks” can be upgraded and ever start attacking, I was immediately sucked into the possibilities of those mechanics 🧐

The most annoying thing about friendslop discourse is you (especially you) don't get to decide what genres end up forming and what they end up getting called. That's not how genres work.

I will say one thing that is cool about this ongoing normalization of gen AI in #gamedev is that I get to feel subversive & edgy for hiring a human being to hand draw our concept art.

He's only gone and written 2,500 more words about how game devs feel about generative AI. Latest piece quotes around two dozen different people with an indie background. When asked how they feel about gen AI, not one, but two devs responded, "Fuck that shit." www.gamesradar.com/games/it-cre...
gamesradar.com
"It creates lesser games": Indie game studios are supposed to love generative AI, so why do the 25 devs I spoke to avoid it?
"So it may be slightly faster, and a lot worse, but it's also more expensive? Neat"
