Yo @grok what was the ad about that has gotten twitter boss so upset

I want to replac the windows desktop function with a figma design document. Cannot unwant 😭😭😭😭😭😭

@Sosowski Its vulgar and provocative. Can Studios counter culture by refusing to be bought? :)

Game companies literally gambled the livelihoods of many people by binge hiring. When they lost, they threw the workers under the bus and walked away without a scratch. That's what is happening. This is real people whose lives are being gambled away by greedy fucks.

The game industry layoffs scale is devastating, and weren't these companies binge hiring last couple years? The capitalistic expected unlimited growth got to their heads. I never undrestood this. I just want to make games, not win capitalism. What is wrong with people?

@McFunkypants I believe I killed my creativity by contextualizing every neat design I had as a sellable product. I I feel skilled as a game dev its just a different kind of difficult to value the skill in the absence of a career.

it is sad when people decide not to learn something if they don't think they could make a living doing it you are missing out in all your dreams and your favourite activities and most valued skills because you need to "justify" the time spent with income potential

@AnderssonKev I would make jump and traversal focused abilities available in items. Carry it to use the ability. Consumed instantly, multiple uses or active until dropped. I like the idea of having tons of props to explore and test. Jumpy sandbox!

What do you think about unlocking/upgrading movesets in 3D platformers? I'm considering adding stuff such as, improving the glider, attack mid-air for a small extra jump etc. Nothing that would be required to finish the game, but needed to find/reach all secrets.

Had a little level design fail today

@GamewithDave SOTN, Xenogeras, ff tactics, Loaded, Die Hard Trilogy, Bushido Blade. I mean why not ALL OF THEM!!

Which PlayStation game deserves a remake?

@AnderssonKev I think it makes sense when it's considered in multi layered platform puzzles

What is your opinion about movement speed when carrying objects in 3D platformers? How about limiting certain moves?

@AnderssonKev Its a neat enough idea to bookmark at least. Accidental jump mechanic is my favorite accident!

@slapmybitsup haha yeah, a bit scary in a game where you've already got so many moves to jump around :D

You can jump off objects that you carry around.. I should remove that.

@McFunkypants Bleak Faith game trailer say "3 devs 1 dream" I look at my project and think "1 dev 3 dreams"

#gamdev protip (opinion: maybe I'm wrong!) your game, no matter the price or budget, is being directly compared to AAA titles of the same genre! Almost nobody cares: - if 5 or 500 people worked on a game - if it took 6 or 60 months to complete - if it cost $1k or $10M to make

@TylerGlaiel break limit!

I want to name this ability that removes a limit from another ability "limit break" but thats not how other games use the name "limit break" :/

@MikaelForslind Steam reviews are toxic poop from a gamer butt!

"the NPC are probably some of the worst in videogames" "Its really not that good of a metroidvania, i really hope the devs can make a much better game later, but its still a major step up compared to how bad i thought the previous game felt." I love reading Steam reviews!

@AnderssonKev I collect and cherish the moments i can say that line!

@slapmybitsup I like this direction!

What fun mechanic could happen when you swap between day and night? #gamedev | #madewithunity | #indiedev

I’m putting together a team

@AnderssonKev It is also a great baby reveal format

@slapmybitsup Hehe thank you! If I make a sequel I would use the same idea haha 😅

3 YEARS AGO TODAY... I released TaniNani on the Nintendo Switch and I absolutely loved how I announced it (this gif). TaniNani is very special to me 💜 To celebrate, both TaniNani and Hoplegs are on sale on the Nintendo Switch! #gamedev | #NintendoSwitch | #screenshotsaturday

@MikaelForslind we all gone

After recently hiring someone younger and taking on an intern I've started to feel a bit old at the office so I need some cheering up. Do you know any gamer or game dev that was born in the 80ies that's still alive?
