Just an FYI for folks, automation for bug tracking and testing has been a thing since at least when I started in AAA in 2016, so it pre-dates genAI quite a bit. I'm still in a wait-and-see for Capcom, but people being confused about old tech vs genAI is what the current techbros want.

Looking to do an “Anthro Festival Direct” style video series. But we’d need some help. Mainly Video Editors and a VRChat Camera Op to record me as I read the script. Anyone interested in volunteering to help out with this? It’s a big endeavour but I believe it’ll help furry gamedev just like AF has.

Also fuck "good game design". Shit got so safe lately it is boring. Bring back friction in games. Controversial mechanics. Make your castlevania-inspired game have Classicvania knockback stun. Have contact damage on enemies. Eschew genre norms. Have complicated controls. Let your devil speak to me.

The situation with FurAffinity is pretty amazing. Advertisers threatened their advertising revenue because they considered Plus Sized characters and characters HUGGING to be adult content. So FA said fuck off, and in two days raised their entire yearly funding. Advertisers are so bullshit stupid.

Fun fact: a medieval castle is being built right now! Guédelon Castle (near Treigny, France) is an experimental archaeology project that began in 1997 aiming to build a 13th century castle from scratch, using only period techniques. It's still ongoing, and everything is made on-site, even the bread!

Guédelon Castle as it was in 2017. Big part of the walls has been built since then, and they are working on the roofing of the towers now.

Master builders working on a newly made gothic style window.

Mural paintings being added to the castle's Great Hall in 2012. They are inspired by 13th century murals in the nearby church of Moutiers-en-Puisaye.

Master builders installing one of the carved stones. Being experimental archaeology, the workers are not only using period materials, tools and techniques, but also are clothed accordingly.

I've been really enjoying this one, had it on my wishlist a while back and glad I caught it on launch. As someone who has been getting back into sewing, both hand and machine, it really does translate the methods and steps soooo well into a game. Defo a lovely afternoon tea kinda game.

For the umpteenth time: do not attack people for having an unusually shaped body, comment on the objectively evil things they do and say. This isn't hard! Being shitty about bodies/appearance while disabled people are vilified for being seen in public feeds into ableist rhetoric.

I saw this screenshot going around, found this detail charming, looked more into the game (I've never played a Silent Hill) & decided to buy it. Btw these are the "unimportant" background assets AI idiots think AI should be used for

Screenshot of a Twitter post by Val / @shegoingtogloat - it's a Silent Hill screenshot showing a close up of a cork board. On it, a paper says "Welcome to Shorefront Family Clinic" in a classic wiggly 3D font style. The tweet text is: Is this a Silent Hill asset made using PowerPoint lol"
