Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

In 2016, game designer and podcaster, Choi Mika, posted about a t-shirt on social media. Thus begins a story of how the Korean tabletop industry stood against a right-wing mob and transformed their scene for the better. www.rascal.news/how-rpgs-bec...

Eis como se luta contra bigtech: Use, e mais importante, CONTRIBUA com software livre. Neste caso, LibreOffice, tu não precisa piratear esse Word, e não, pirarear não prejudica a Microsoft, pq ainda naturaliza como escolha padrão. No mais, contribua com doações, pro software continuar de pé.

There were many takes about this already so I don't think I have anything to add, however, do read the article, it's not as superficial as the headline may suggest. As for the romance topic: I believe it has more to do with clichés that nobody cares anymore than disinterest on romance itself.

Tirando da memória, então sintam-se livres pra me corrigir se estiver errado: Lá pros anos 2010, havia uma industria de jogos BR, em boa parte como estúdios de advergames. Quando bateu a crise de 2012-14, as marcas pararam de investir em advergames, e os estúdios sumiram. [...]

Hi, I'm transmutrix! I'm a programmer and game dev specializing in gamefeel, polish, and tools/workflows. I've spent the past 5 years making online multiplayer games with JS and TS, and now I'm looking for work! I make... all kinds of stuff. 😅 🎮 #SteamDeck #indieGameDev #gamedev #pixelart

Don't let the success of others guide how you feel about your own accomplishments. Just because someone seems to being doing incredible doesn't mean you should spit on your own achievements. Our journeys are different from one other. Look towards YOURSELF and not those around you. ❤️

Aproveitando pra dizer que a Wikipédia é uma ótima fonte de informações (pt e en) Por quê? Porque cita a porcaria da fonte! Nem texto jornalístico faz isso, e é tragicamente irônico que o site que tanto acusam de "ain qualquer um pode escrever o que bem entende" é o único que cita sua bibliografia

Intermittent reminder that 'AI' is a broad name for a huge range of technologies, some of which are really useful and have no negative effects, some of which are pretty useless and/or based on plagiarism. The existence of one doesn't negate the existence of the other.

Unfortunately I have been affected by the latest Unity layoff. While I didn’t expect it to happen so suddenly, I’m still incredibly grateful for nearly six years there! I’m open to new opportunities - so I'm more than happy to connect with anyone wanting to make great games!

Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock. If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.

Desenhei o post de pessoas por aqui!

Hoje eu vi uma tradução de game designer para "ludoísta", o que foi novidade, mas sinceramente acho que "projetista de jogos" me parece um termo mais preciso 🤔.

Acho que é justo dizer que o que tá acontecendo é a tentativa de transformar tudo em "fast food", ou melhor, "junk food" Música de IA: junk music Filme em IA: junk movie Jogos em IA: junk game Usar IA pra se educar: junk education Mídias sociais: junk media Código de IA: junk code E assim vai.
