J'ai assisté au procès Ubisoft. On y entendait comme l'ambiance terrible qui régnait a servi, aussi, à créer de parfaits travailleurs, s'épuisant à la tâche, emplis de racisme et de misogynie. Et à crafter des jeux qui reflétaient ça. Des jeux 𝒇𝒖𝒏𝒔 🔴 youtu.be/IVV4LKME-K4

For some people, video games are about the wonder of exploring strange, thrilling, action-packed worlds but for me the joy of video games has always been all about moving to a franchise-centric planning strategy to better focus resources on long-term growth and stability amid broader restructuring.

A trillion-dollar company inflicting misery and cultural vandalism on an industrial scale for no reason other than to pay the toll for a long standing culture of wretched, pig-headed, cowardly leadership and the awful decisions it keeps making.

Worked again with Benjamin C. on this launch trailer and it's one of my favorite. It rightfully gives the vibe that Cairn is more than a climbing game, it's an adventure game. youtu.be/6Ejphz8fY0A

Seed by Seed | Baladins coming on Consoles! @seedbyseedgames.bsky.social · 16/01/2026
Hi there, game industry and friends, This is our turn to do the "square news bad news" thing. Sadly, our studio has been affected by the crisis like everyone else. You can ask questions in thread, we'll try our best to answer. Cheers & take care ❤️
Hi everyone, long time no see.
The global video game economy was bad in 2024, and it got worse in 2025. We had hoped that it wouldn't affect us, but it did. 2025 has been a rough year for us.
Seed by Seed is experiencing significant financial difficulties, and we have to pause our creative activities. We're not closing the studio, but we had to let go most of our employees (understand: we fired ourselves) and we'll now focus on contract work to stabilize our company. Seed by Seed still exists with a few persons that will maintain our games as much as they possibly can. Nevertheless, Baladins will soon be released on consoles, and more is to come for Jump the Track.
The Seed by Seed team sends lots of love to everyone who has helped us on our creative journey so far. You can support us by buying and playing our games, spreading the word, and leaving good reviews on Steam. All efforts will help us return to creating our own weird adventures.
The Seed by Seed Team

Windlet is not the only spirit taking care of the island.. who might this tiny cheeky little guy be ? ⭐
A teasing for the second spirit of Spiriki. You can only see their shadow with a spiky round head, two rounds on the side (maybe their ears), and a long tail creating a tiny round at the head of it. They seem to have the same hat with a star at the top of it as Windlet. The frame is orange for this character, evoking their element.

a tumblr post by sewerfight

my friend was testing perfumes out at the store and she sniffed a bottle and announced "ngl this bitch kind of sucks" The girl at the counter suddenly looked really sad, and my friend was like "I'm sorry, I wasn't talking about you." And the girl looked up and said "No don't worry, I didn't think that, but I just crushed a ladybug with my shoe" We both took a peak over the counter. she'd stepped on a red m&m.
