Starter Kit: Racing for @godotengine is releasing next week!
Open-source and great as a base for your racing game using my well-known sphere ball technique. It might be a little rough around the edges but I really want to finally release this ✨

how is RSP not a thing?
how is playing with more than 3 friends not a thing?
how is actual mod support not a thing?
how is a battlerecorder not a thing?
...
EA removed it all on purpose for a more 'streamlined' (controlled) experience, and also to limit the lifespan of the game.

How are platoons not a thing?

@BenjiGameDev Rule #1: Don’t use AI, because it’s sourced unethically.
Rule #2: If you want to go the unethical route, at least be open about it.
Rule #3: Fuck you if you can’t align with Rule 1 and 2.
I see no problem here.

some of you want studios to be transparent about their AI use in formal disclosures, so consumers can make informed purchase decisions
some of you want AI to be so shamed that studios choose to not use it at all
these are incompatible, and pursuing both will get us neither
Benji@BenjiGameDev
if games are punished for honest AI disclosure, the incentive is to lie. it will become a secret industry standard like steroid use in Marvel movies

A GOG GALAXY job listing all but confirms that the launcher will be coming to the Linux platform, which will include the #SteamDeck:

Thank you all for making Godot possible! ❤️
It's incredibly hard to make a general-purpose game engine. A project of this scale is only possible due to contributors putting in countless hours and to people supporting it and making games with it!

#Godot 4.6 is out, and all about your flow! This release puts your workflow first with a new theme, flexible docks, and dozens of UX improvements. Default Jolt Physics, revamped IK, better reflections, and more. Less wrestling with UI. More making games. godotengine.org/releases/4.6/

I was a bit early yesterday sharing an in-progress page but Godot 4.6 is out now officially. My character, and other assets (can you spot all?) are featured on the release page and I love it, I'm honored to be (a tiny) part of a great engine 🎉

Hell yeah, @GOGcom! That‘s the way. But GOG Galaxy needs a better foundation to run FAST and not get in the users way. Right now, it‘s a slog and the integrations are not properly maintained.

@Gigabear_X @ALegendaryDrops @EpicGames @Steam @GOGcom Once established, feature parity on some areas and major improvements on others (modding / workshop / user created content).
GOG had THE killer-feature but decided to bury it, it was called „Steam Connect“ and allowed to unlock some games on GOG which you already owned on Steam.
English
@Gigabear_X @ALegendaryDrops @EpicGames @Steam … and THE 2 alternatives that could actually tackle @Steam haven‘t yet decided to do so. Going a user-first and convenience route is the way. @EpicGames and @GOGcom could achieve that - but both need a fast, sleek client / frontend that is not in the way of users first.

Okay buddy.
Nothings says everyone wins like trying to force people onto your shitty store through exclusivity deals.
Then those games fail and its a hostage situation where they are dependent on you to survive.

Epic and Steam compete for each customer and each sale. On some transactions, Epic wins. On more, Steam wins. But one thing is constant on every transaction: gamers and developers win by having more options and better deals.

@LuizAriel12 @remedygames Because it’s only available on the shittiest of them all. At least Steam AND GOG are the way.

@remedygames Alert the authorities, the whining of PC gamers who claim not being tied to one store, but can't buy a game on another launcher is going to flood everything here!!!

@Gigabear_X @ALegendaryDrops @EpicGames @Steam Would I love to see @TimSweeneyEpic stop trying to jiggle his way into competitors userbases via lawsuits and instead sitting down with his development to to build an ACTUAL competitor with a „users first“ mindset? Sure. But he already decided that it‘s not worth it.
English
@Gigabear_X @ALegendaryDrops For 22% more than @EpicGames‘s cut, @Steam offers not just the playerbase but also features that I don‘t get with ANY other competitor.
If you look at it like this: „30% for a storefront“ - yeah, it looks shit. But not because 30% is much - because you ignore 95% of features.
