@JaeGamez Might've been me.... x.com/kodingnights/s…

I once watched a YouTube video or something where this guy said, something along the lines of: “If I’m going to be staring at someone’s ass for 20+ hours, I’d sure as hell prefer it were a woman’s” Can’t remember who it was but that always stayed with me… 😅

@dieinthedungeon That capsule art is so great, who made it?

MORE THAN 3000 REVIEWS ‼️ Thank you to everyone who took the time to write a review for our little frog game on Steam, forever grateful! 🐸🙏

@Jonathan_Blow It's almost like the 'idea guy' meme was correct all along

It's been 3 months since the 100x vibers started 100x vibin'! So, post your 25-years-of-work-equivalent project here, so we can signal boost and everyone can celebrate the Life's Work that you did in 3 months. Looking forward to it, Let's Go!!!

After getting some feedback on demo playtests I have learned: * Don't assume players look at their whole screen * Don't assume players read * Don't overestimate players patience

@TheOtherFrost And if they do, Nintendo will sue them!

Here's the simple difference between console exclusives and why Nintendo gets away with it Xbox and PS exclusives: I only buy these consoles because I can't get the games anywhere else Nintendo exclusives: I only buy this console because no one else makes these games

@SandyofCthulhu @RPG_GM02 But then how would they sell more copies? They wanted you to update all you had to the new system so they could sell the same stuff twice.

@RPG_GM02 Really D&D didn't need anything after AD&D, though. It was fine. You could keep adding new campaign worlds and monsters and character classes without updating anything in the core rules.

@DamienNZ @Pirat_Nation So in what way was Slay the Spire 2 affected? Genuinely curious.

@kodingnights @Pirat_Nation "who cares that our entire western industry is pushing ideological slop instead of just focusing on the gameplay and story?" ok, you dont care or agree the problem exists - that's fine. Others have noticed things you haven't and DO care. That's "who cares".

Slay the Spire 2 is facing backlash after players discovered Anita Sarkeesian listed as a consultant in the credits. Gamers are leaving negative Steam reviews, saying they regret buying the game and would not have purchased it if they knew. Some are requesting refunds while it is still in Early Access.

@UnrealEngine GTA 1. Because I wanted to see what was inside the buildings.

What's the game that helped you realize you wanted to make videogames?

@fandompulse They literally tell you, right there, in the text you yourself quoted.

Devolver Digital praises Feminist Frequency creator Anita Sarkeesian for her work on their game: "Anita's work has been an essential part of the Devolver production workflow for a long time now. Whether it's a quick sense check or a full consultancy gig, our teams have always benefited hugely from collaborating with Anita and her group. She is at the forefront of promoting diversity and inclusivity within our industry and for that reason, she's a vital part of the work that we do.— Andrew Parsons, Head of Production, Devolver Digital" Why are so many companies hiring her?

@SandyofCthulhu @memeslich Don't throw shade on my Rogue, Bard!

@memeslich First of all, there are only three character classes: fighter, magic-user, and cleric.

What are the four character classes? Wrong answers only!

Why do people care so much about how the game was made? The tools are there, why can't people use them? AI is used in music mixing, video editing, even your Photoshop filters and game enemies use some form of AI. I just don't understand what the problem is. You all sound brainwashed, criticizing what you don't understand because it's the hot new topic to hate nowadays.

Some called Broken Dagger game an AI slop - developer just responded with the following dev update ⤵️⤵️⤵️ store.steampowered.com/news/app/45238… #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #retrogame @IndieGameJoe @clemmygames

@sylver_dev Always have been. Now more than ever. GameDev is more and more like a SoMe popularity contest. Good thing I don't care too much about sales because I have a 'real job' - hence my name

So apparently Steam is testing a new Beta UI that changes how Popular Upcoming work. The current Popular Upcoming is sorted chronologically. However the new one seems to show games with massive wishlist which screws us small devs with limited budgets! Are we cooked guys?

@GreyAlien They use AI agents as well now so you even get personalized responses if you flick them off.

One particularly annoying trend with key scammers now is they send multiple follow up emails.
