the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims

Have you seen some of the art for @gardens.dev's upcoming game? Yeah, it's that beautiful! 💚🌳 More info: gardens.dev/press
Three heroes walking towards a sort of ritual site—a small megalithic structure. Beautifully illustrated.Four wanderers—likely the three heroes and a companion—are making their way through a very dense forest and are currently passing a large clearing situated in the valley.The three heroes have found a small, round, closed gate in the middle of the deep forest. Atmospheric god rays shine through the treetops.The three heroes spend the night sitting close together by the campfire, in the midst of an old stone ruin in the forest.

the thing about video games is its a terrible business, because they have to be made by a half dozen of the most elite creative professions working in harmony and they're priced worse than disposable single-person works

This past weekend, the new movie Project Hail Mary was a smash hit, bringing in nearly $141 million at the box office. But many years ago, before he was writing novels adapted into mega-hit films, Andy Weir was fired from his dream job... at Blizzard Entertainment. Excerpt from my latest book:
