Dragon Ball Z: Spirit Bomb Energy Gathering
Alt: Trunks and Goten from Dragon Ball Z amongst a bunch of farmers. Everyone is raising their hands into the air to signify that they’re giving energy to Goku so he can use a spirit bomb. There are small blue and white balls of energy floating upwards.

Did you know that missing credits can ruin careers, yet countless devs are excluded? Our alpha build for The Arab League of Misfits has a complete credits sequence. It might not be much for some, but all of our contributors (and of course licenses) get attribution on day one. #indiegames #ALoM

Those that know me well, probably know how much crediting means to me in the gaming industry. I worked for years with the @igda.org Game Credits SIG making sure we have a solid credit policy guideline for studios to apply freely igda.org/sigs/credits/

It's true that the internet, like the world we live in, is full of hate & cruelty, apocalypse & toxicity & mass extinction. But it's also full of wonderful things & magnificent people. And with great, constant, daily effort, that's the internet (& world) I choose to inhabit.

First time I worked on localizing to something that doesn't read from left to right. Again, #Godot does an amazing job providing easy locale-based direction switching for UI and Labels. Fun challenge and learned a lot! I read Arabic like a pre-schooler so help from @nazihfares.com much appreciated!

Behind every game you love is a precise balance of focus, chaos, and a lot of caffeine. Left to right is some of your Arab Misfits including Nazih, Jack (mid-air calibration check), and Zein. Jumping into the #whatagamedevlookslike trend and saying goodbye to #Gamescom
Three smiling developers stand arms-linked in front of a white wall under a wooden beam structure. The person on the left wears glasses, a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, and tan trousers. The person in the middle wears glasses, large over-ear headphones around his neck, a white patterned button-up shirt, and light blue shorts while jumping mid-air with his legs spread wide. The person on the right has a full beard and wears a black t-shirt featuring a colorful, neon-lined panda graphic.

Our @arabmisfits.com build is playable on Steamdeck thanks to @zein.northsky.social... And some noob QA problems from my end. I couldn't understand why audio wasn't working in the game, and seems like I've muted the application through a shortcut in desktop mode? #indiegames #ALoM
Nazih holds a black Valve Steam Deck handheld console in their hands, displaying a digital card game on its screen. The console is enclosed in a protective, textured black rubber grip case. The game on screen, "The Arab League of Misfits," features an illustrated wooden tabletop layout with blue cards, a vintage cassette tape icon, and a selected card containing the humorous text, "I will hit you with the slipper, I swear."

The movie and games industry is so terrified of risks, it keeps rehashing old content and IPs over and over. Prequels, sequels, remasters, remakes, life-action , animated, series version... It was only logical they come up with a machine that gobbles up old content to puke out "new" stuff.
