okay this is actually surprising to me. *only ~20* demos are puzzle shooters? huh. didn't know this was such a niche genre.
screenshot of Steam Next Fest filters interface, showing that the overlap between the tags "Puzzle" and "Shooter" is only 20

huh. just learned that Cursed Words is based on Words on the Street, a previous "Twitch Plays" game from the same studio. interesting!
screenshot of a channel trailer titled "Michael Pillow's Channel Trailer" on a Twitch channel "WordsOnTheStreet". the current frame shows a dog with a ball in its mouth and a sock puppet character waving at the camera. in front of them is text that says "WORDS ON THE STREET" and "HOSTED BY MICHAEL PILLOW".

evil cat........ EVIL CAT..............!! #ocart #halloween
digital artwork of a robot cat in a witch hat against purple background with black bats and an aura of bright purple clouds. the character's head is a yellow-orange monitor with 3 metal antennas on each of the left and right sides resembling cat whiskers. the character shows an evil smiling face using their monitor, with visible fangs and blush marks. the character's body and boots are teal coloured, their hands and fingers are yellow, and tubes connecting their body to their limbs are dark teal. with their arms raised, their hands facing down, and their sharp fingers bent inwards, they are making a pose resembling a cat raising their paws with claws out.

gave the player character a little "look around" idle animation to better showcase the pistol reskins in the customisation menu. now this animation is also used in gameplay if you idle for 10 seconds!

put together a handy little photo mode to take some promo screenshots with! it lets you fly with the camera freely while the game is paused.
video game screenshot. a lowpoly character with a pink cone body, yellow shield head and limbs made out of thin blue lines stands on a platform that quickly fades away around them. in front of the character are two giant floating TVs, which show that the character is actually standing in an alleyway.

in the top right are some hints on how to use photo mode control keybindings:
Toggle player - [1]
Toggle UI - [2]
1st/3rd person view - [3]
Exit photo mode - [Escape]video game screenshot. the same character from the previous screenshot is now in a grey world, surrounded by dancing human 3D models with randomly-coloured noise as their texture. in front of the player are some square particles with the same random noise texture and an orange text popup that says "HIT!"

how it started vs how it's going
screenshot of a barebones video game. the player is a white capsule in a plain yellow world looking at a floating TV where they can see themselves. the environment *around* the player (except for the TV) is invisible.screenshot of a much more detailed video game.

the player character is humanoid and abstract, made out of a pink cone shape for the body, thin blue limbs and a yellow shield-shaped head. they are holding a gun with an infrared laser.

the floating TVs now have a different, more stylised 3D model, are outlined in green, and have green "radio waves" coming out of their antennas.

the world visible inside TVs is also a lot more detailed. the player stands next to a wall of purple electricity, with an electrical box next to it emitting purple lightning and sparks. above the wall of electricity, there is a yellow pipe with an orange triangular "electricity warning" sign attached to it, and a white rectangular sign with a "left mouse button" icon drawn on it.

i am Urging people to actually read the Blender Funding Policy that is linked in this very article
Funding Policy

The Blender Development Fund is a donation platform. Individuals and organizations contribute to support Blender's development without acquiring decision-making power over the project's direction.

The Blender project sets its own strategic roadmap and yearly planning. This is done by the community of contributors together with the development and product leadership. When large donations come in, or when major organizations join the Fund, the existing planning can be accelerated or augmented, but the priorities themselves originate from the project.

Blender Foundation maintains a deliberate balance between individual and corporate donations. This balance ensures the Blender project's financial resilience and prevents the leverage that any single donor or category of donors could exert on the organization.

Corporate participation in the Development Fund does not imply alignment between Blender and the donor's mission, products, or strategy. That is not the purpose of the Fund. The only requirement for joining the Fund is to support Blender's mission: building the best 3D creation technology as free and open source software.

The project funding is handled transparently and detailed in the Blender Foundation annual reports.

For more information, reach out to foundation@blender.org.
