shouting lager lager lager mega mega shouting lager lager lager

behold the venn diagram of people who can't read submission guidelines and people who make games I am totally disinterested in = ⭕

I’ve unlocked the Deus Ex roleplay subculture in LinkedIn

1/2 🎙️ new episode of Say It Like you Play it @indiegameclinic.bsky.social and I discuss language in character creation & world building: ❕language ideologies ❕characters with accents & speech impediments ❕conlangs & orthography ❕Dragon Age, Pillars of Eternity, Cyberpunk 2077, Disco Elysium

I check the little screen, I check the big screen, I check the watch screen, I check the tablet screen. I check the screen that reminds me of the good times, I check the screen that reminds me of the better times.

The thing about "LLMs COULD be cheap" is no they can't, because the expense is the point. If they don't need giant GPU farms to run, Nvidia collapses. If ChatGPT doesn't cost $100 million to train, OpenAI doesn't get all that seed money. The tech and financial sectors depend on the expense.

Another snip from band practice. Didn’t really intend for us to have a blues-rock song, but sometimes you just have to sing whatever goes with the rest of the music.

please support ur friends making creative shit in this cruel world. u have no idea how much a kind comment can mean to an artist when every website just tries to make you focus on the numbers

The Electrifying Incident is OUT NOW on Steam and itch! Featuring the monster from A Monster's Expedition in a brand new sci-fi setting! Explore a mysterious facility, manipulate the electrical hazards and find a way to the source of the problem.

oh hey I heard you wanted 90 minutes of dubby folksy triphop and an interview with an interesting music producer www.mixcloud.com/TonyWestclif...

come here a tale, a tale of weed peter and his elusive blunt www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbCl...

I know I shouldn't have responded, but after 3 months of 'WHY NO AI', I lost my fucking patience.

I am a DJ and a music journalist now btw www.mixcloud.com/TonyWestclif...

Anime culture is wild you’ll see the deepest discourse about something and then look it up and it’s some show about a boy who turns into a metal caterpillar every Tuesday

Here’s the edited version of today’s workshop on characterisation and dialogue for indie game devs! youtu.be/orvZIxC54NU?... #indiegames #gamedev

Good morning Happy Earth Day

Band practice snippage: channeling my inner Shawn Smith (if you know Shawn Smith you are my peoples)

this time tomorrow I'm going to be livestreaming a workshop on narrative design, covering the basics of characterization and some initial dialogue "how to" stuff. www.youtube.com/live/fWBxHO5...

Music folks; if you have a minor chord but then you drop the 3rd down a note in the scale; is there a name for this chord type?

If you want an insight into the sort of people TERF ideology attracts, I just saw a young woman on Facebook try to reclaim the acronym by turning it into “the educated real females”

It isn't a surprise to me that returning to print has made the Onion significantly funnier, but it is a surprise to me how *quickly* it has done so.

I need people to understand that Barthes meant "Death Of The Author" to mean that authorial intent should not be the primary lens by which to criticize and understand a text; it has nothing to do with "is buying a book by a bigot acceptable" it is about LITERARY CRITICISM

I know nothing about Blue Prince except what I’ve absorbed through skeets and it sounds like stuff I would absolutely love mixed with some design choices which would piss me off immensely

To me Rowling exists entirely outside of the “should we support/work with artists with troubling views?” debate. She doesn’t just *think* her opinions, she doesn’t just *say* them, she’s a relentless 24-7 activist whose whole mission in life is terrorizing trans people.

no? we fucking wouldn't?? who the fuck are the "most of us" who would do this, and where can i meet them to punch them in the face???
