man every day some pundit's on here with the latest random thing they think is the problem in the games industry, we're not original enough, not well-read enough, chasing the wrong trends, whatever. pisses me off. it's that there is no fucking money. whatever shit you think you are seeing is THAT

Oh, you've made a video game? And you want people to play it? Well, let's talk about how to do that better. How, exactly, can you make sure people care about your game and want to tell other people about it? Check it out here: docseuss.medium.com/its-not-enou...

Ocarina of Time demake in my art style! ✨ #art #Zelda #Nintendo #PixelArt #ドット絵

A pixel art rendition of Link's House from the beginning of Ocarina of Time. The perspective is similar to a diorama or an isometric view. Link is sleeping in his bed with Navi floating next to him. Saria and her fairy are waiting at the base of the tree that Link lives in.

The Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road (NDS) (2009) 1/3

On a dark and gloomy night, a forest road leads to a clearing with a lot of white picket fences, withered trees, internally illuminated carved pumpkins and an old mansion with all of its windows glowing with an eerie yellow glow.

Yellow brick road? More like muddy, brown, dirty dirt road amirite?

Inside, a cute blonde witch wearing a red witch's hat with a little skull emblem on it, purple dress, spiky twirly boots and a fashionable red purse with the same little skull.

Her name is Holly - The Witch of the Fall and analogous to the Wicked Witch of the West. She's standing in the middle of the reception hall reading a big purple magical book (which is how I usually like to read), narrating the beginning of our adventure.

A distant side-view shot of the gang - Dorothy, Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion and Tin Woodman, walking down the yellow dirt - I mean brick road, on the most beautiful summer day with green meadows full of colorful flowers and lush green mountains in the distance under clear blue skies filled with a flock of white birds flying above.

This intro scene charmingly recreates the intro to the 80s Ozu no Mahōtsukai anime, even following the same arrangement of the characters as they're merrily walking along.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdVr_WFCzHo

The Great and Powerful Oz himself, in a very peculiar anime rendition this time.

It's a green floating head with a creepy grin and too many teeth, ornate viking beard, bat wings flapping behind him and a neat little crown hat with a christian cross on it just for effect.

Basically, he looks like an evil brother of the King of All Cosmos from Katamari Damacy.

"The games industry is crashing" and "The games industry made a record $197 BILLION in 2025" seem like contradictory things, how can things be going so good for the industry, and yet so terrible for people being laid off en-masse? Well, investors pulling money means studio closures and job losses.

if I were ever to write a followup or expansion to 'A Pivot To Indie Won't Save Us' it would probably center around how much midsized indies benefit from the ability to poach producers, QA and other roles from AAA, roles that indie itself makes zero room for other than preexisting domain experts

Here's a small portion of an animated bumper I made to promote a video game from @owlcatgames.bsky.social (Blind Descent). Seeing the latest advances in generative AI and how they've invaded space, I feel lucky to have at least produced this little piece from start to finish 🥲.
