i feel like this is actually a long-term net positive for small indies making highly bespoke work. people are already sick of the scale-chasing in big games that are made with conventional tools, which is by definition the best result that AI tools _could_ accomplish

geez, nightreign is so good. no notes. most fun i've had in a multiplayer game in a long time. i actually really dig the pacing, kind of reminds me of a platinum game in a lot of ways. i wonder if any ex-platinum people worked on it

Wheel World is the game I’m most anticipating this year. 100% a dream game I’ve always wanted to exist. store.steampowered.com/app/1497460/...

it's wild how you can make a game that looks 50% better but performs orders of magnitude worse and has 10x the content bugs than the original, call it a remaster, and people will praise it

an accumulation of screenshots from testing my procedural brutalist city... it's coming together! rn this is focused on generating building placement so that it is interesting to explore, and the building overlap is compelling. lots to do still 😰😅 #GameDev #GameArt

I've now published my blog post, "I want a good parallel computer." raphlinus.github.io/gpu/2025/03/... . Thanks much to all the feedback on the draft, I'd like to think I've clarified some things that might have been confusing.

The last demo that I tried this Steam Next Fest that I loved (and of course took shots from) was Wheel World, made by @messhof.bsky.social and published by @annapurna.com. The art direction and character work are beautiful. Go play it! #VirtualPhotography #FramedSC

For what it’s worth, all of the most important/meaningful connections I’ve made at GDC have happened without alcohol around

Publisher bizdev people at events like GDC and Dice trying to sign "the next balatro" should realize that, statistically, the developer of "the next Balatro" you need to be talking to isn't at GDC or Dice talking to bizdev guys seeking 2m+ in funding

AI images have an extremely distinctive and very strange distribution of spatial frequencies. They're basically made of zebra stripes at varying scales. Every dark band has a corresponding bright band of the same thickness immediately alongside it this is actually MORE noticeable at thumbnail size

I think that putting extremely expressive movement mechanics like haste and descenders into a roguelite format is a huge bummer. All the fun in actually playing and experimenting with it gets lost because now everything is just vaguely risky

I'm glad Consume Me is getting the IGF recognition it deserves, but it being nominated for excellence in visuals while Tiny Glade is only receiving an honorable mention feels like some next level indie gatekeeping

I don't have any profound political commentary beyond what's already been said today BUT I believe that progress starts with being there for your people, not in the federal government. So if you want to catch up or play a game or something please don't hesitate to reach out ❤️
