Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 30/09/2026For many of us, making games was a way to create a meaningful connection with the rest of the world, to prove beyond doubt we could achieve something difficult, to live an adventure through creation. We are moving toward a world in which making a game means absolutely nothing. 000

Reposted by Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave)Daniele Giardini (Demigiant) @demigiant.com · 18/02/2026Just what we needed from a gamedev engine: a way to fill the market with even more slop, as fast as possible. Unity, why would you focus so much on things whose only yield for us gamedevs is a sinking depression? It seems like you really don't like us anymore 161
Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 21/01/2026In my free time, I'm working on a control rig system for my personal project (Unity). Tried some popular ready-to-go solutions but, as always, I come back reinventing the wheel 🙄 #gamedev #unity 031
Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 21/01/2026I think indie game developers need a cheap, open gaming platform built on fixed, deliberately limited hardware. An ecosystem where constant technological escalation disappears, speculative bubbles can't form, and creativity thrives without the gravity of hundred-person teams. 020

Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 04/01/2025While chatting with my wife, I realized that paranoia can be a consequence of anger. I believe that we often fall victim to our emotions. So, stress can trigger anger. We ask ourselves why, and when we can’t find an obvious reason, we see dots and start connecting them to make sense of that emotion. 100

Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Sometimes I wonder if searching for references for gamedev on the internet puts intelligence services on edge—one day I’m looking up pictures of terrorists and firearms, and the next day it’s women kneeling to mop the floor. 030

Davide Barbieri (PeevishDave) @peevishdave.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Back in 2017, I made a tool for creating UI panels/buttons/etc. directly in the Unity editor, planning to release it on the Asset Store. Laziness (mostly writing docs) stopped me from finishing it. I still use it in my games though. Sometimes I wonder if anyone would actually use it. #gamedev #unity 020
