As someone who follows gaming news but didn't watch the summer games fest thing yesterday the only things I know about it are they said a bunch of stupid shit and announced RE9. Seems like a real shit use of money for everyone else.

Every once in a while good things actually do happen Also follow Niki and support them and stuff

So on a personal level the thing that frequently frustrates me the most about "solo dev" has very little to do with random tiny games on itchio and a lot to do with the way the "solo dev" myth for successful games perpetuates poverty wages and intentionally poor crediting practices for contractors

she's aten but it's 1330 BCE :(

There’s a solo-dev discourse going on right now, and somehow many people believe I made Selaco entirely on my own which is absurd. I’ll take this opportunity to give the team a shout-out. Without any of these names, Selaco wouldn’t exist.

"Well, Bobby, it's time to get you down to the Arlen Game Expo so you can pick up your solo developer award."

i was referred to as a solo dev frequently when bloodborne psx launched & it made me uncomfortable as it downplayed the amount of effort @art-mino.bsky.social, @thenobledemon.bsky.social & @funnywes.bsky.social so every interview i did i made sure to mention them to push away from this narrative

the answer really is always just "rich dad"

What’s truly funny is that I’ve thought “I should really give Splitgate 2 a chance at least” multiple times in the last few weeks Never fuckin mind lmfao

what @nikigrayson.com said

I'm havin a shit night gang, need you to gas me up proceed

The videos coming out of the Gestapo terror raid in Los Angeles today are absolutely horrifying and really should wake you up to the new reality of American fascism. It’s here it’s coming for us all and unless we fight for one another we will not survive.

DO NOT BUY JURASSIC WORLD EVOLUTION 3 They’re using ai generation in their game, boycott this shit and force their hand to remove this garbage from their game entirely. store.steampowered.com/app/2958130/...

treating my bad night by watching rogue one, which i haven't done since it came out tarkin still weird cass still hot

Chat! Chat oh my god

spinning the dial trying to find Sy Snootles but it's just the ghorman massacre on every channel 😭

DID YOU NOTICE In star wars they never listen to the radio for fun. It's always for something stressful

and not just dev hate from gamers, this is courting investors. "look how much product we can produce with fewer workers"

hey. my bag with my laptop and a bunch of other gear was stolen yesterday while at the vgbees mixer. i need help replacing my stuff. gofund.me/959ad2c0

Lost in our excitement last night was the extremely shitty ordeal of Niki getting their (very expensive) stuff stolen. Please consider throwing in for my bestie and partner in crime.

everyone after that splitgate 2 presentation

I'm havin a shit night gang, need you to gas me up proceed

putting Mads in Hitman is fun tho. that's good

as someone who also "grew up playing halo" that dude's whole vibe makes his game fucking radioactive to me. shame for the other people who worked on it who are probably fine.

🔴🟡🔵 BIG WALK 🔴🟡🔵 Join us for a tour around our new game. Coming 2026.

it's been almost 20 years since the Gears of War Mad World trailer and we are still trying to escape its shadow. no one will update their marketing plans. we are scraping the bedrock of songs we can slow down and make mournful. we are about to crack the molten core of the Al Yankovic catalog.

why is it getting worse what did I do?!?!?!!

Tune into the Xbox showcase on Sunday where they'll reveal the next Call of Duty, made by a solo dev and 2,999 of his friends

Disappointed in everyone in that theater who didn’t jump up and knock that guy’s teeth in

If I was a dev and I had spent years working on a game and my boss went on stage and looked like this much of a jackass I'd be so pissed

i love every genre of hot new video game: * gacha game that took money from a massive chinese conglomerate, which will fail to beat genshin impact and EoS within a year * esports game that took saudi money * 'solo dev' indie game with 50+ outsourced staff in credits * souls clone * call of duty

hat aside, "i'm sick of playing the same Call of Duty every year" is a real telling on yourself type statement. play something else. there's so much else.

it is very funny to wear that hat when you're "we're making shooters great again" ideology was to siphon all of the juice your game had in the first place lmao

are you fucking serious
