Etiquette tip for game dev/real life: if you see someone doing something you think is wrong or ineffecient, "Hey, is there a particular reason you're doing X instead of Y?" is always better than assuming they've screwed up or don't know any better. They might be doing X instead of Y for a reason.

It's bad enough to get unsolicited emails offering services I don't want, but this insistence to "jump on a call"? Absolutely not. I don't even want to "jump on a call" with my closest friends, I'm definitely not doing it with you, pushy stranger. Get!

Whenever people say utter rot, like "Apple stuff just works" you should set them behind iTunes and ask them to merge a split album in their music library.

I once saw George Wendt at Baron's Court. I think he was on stage in London in Art. He was with his family. As I walked by my face must have gone "oh!" and his face was "oh shit I've been recognised" so i just walked past him and let him be. That's it. That's my George Wendt story. Sorry.

This was one of the videos i had put on as background noise today while working and ended up just watching with my full attention because it was quite a thing.

Ugh 😩 Spent an afternoon failing to find any fun iPad games for kids that aren't "FREE ... (for 7 days then subscribe)". Absolute trash. And instead of fixing this hellscape, Apple is like "yeah, sucks, doesn't it? Pay US a subscription if you want proper games, like what we used to sell 🤡🤡🤡".

Internet, pls help! Next month I'm having 2 16-hour plane rides with an almost 5 year old and need to fill an iPad with ethical distractions. Please recommend me: - Offline playable games - Suitable for a creative (almost) 5 year old - Free or pay once, no subs, no ads Do these even exist???

When you guess what happened during the development of any game you are mostly likely to be dead wrong. sincerely, someone who has seen this speculation happen on a great many productions and everyone has always been completely wrong

#solodev confession: A lot of cool little features or easter eggs in my games are usually only there because they involve some technique or code I wanted to learn/teach myself about.

I made a few adjustments and reuploaded my video. You cannot silence an Italian girl from New York. YouTube is complicit in my harassment and the harassment of others. Please like, share, comment, subscribe, and signal boost. Thank you all <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5mn...

Tried is a great article! It is super easy to say no. I've "missed out" on a fair number of games i really wanted to play but could not, in good conscience. And it's fine. I don't miss them, but me not supporting toxic people/companies is absolutely worth this tiny inconvenience!

This is the first time I'm doing a closed beta for a select few on my Discord. I was terrified (I'm still worried) but the quality of feedback so far has been amazing and useful! Maybe i just got lucky? #solodev

#gamedev question for #steam devs: Are there any games that have achievements for global stats? Like if a global stat reaches X amount everybody gets an achievement?

This is a difficult watch. Worth it tho, just to remind yourself of what GamerGate is all about.

Dazzeloids was awesome! I still quote the indecisive raisins sometimes... "I dunno, what do YOU want to do?" And ofc "yes we're waiting for the CD to spin!" I also managed a trip to the awesome Greenblat cafe in Omotesando before that closed (decades ago). (/Brag)

Tinykin is such a lovely little game. Superb on almost every level! If you like your Pikmin-style explorathon's with no combat or time limits this is double A+ recommended! Especially as it's a ridiculous 80% off right now on the Steam Creature Collector Fest! I want a sequel!

Designed about 175 achievements for PWOP. 😅 (Remembers what a massive pita it was implementing just 40 of them in my last game 😰)

I don’t know what the answer is, but requiring folks to move to the most expensive places in the country for work, not paying them enough to own homes or save, and then laying them off ain’t it

The "it was all a simulation" trope is functionally identical to "it was just a dream" and equally disappointing, rendering the entirety of the story moot.

Fully shingles vaxxed! 💉💪 Now to spend the rest of the day wondering if every twinge and ache I feel is regular old age suffering, if my headache is because I played games too late into last night, or if it's all a side effect of the shot today...

I've grown really weary of online arguments. Tried it a bit yesterday. Pointed out someone was (vehemently) arguing against a point nobody had made. They frothed at the mouth and argued harder. I just wished them luck and blocked them. Life's too short and miserable enough.

I don't want to talk to a chat bot. I don't want to use AI to respond to a message. I don't want to download an app. I don't want to connect my fridge to wifi. I don't want to connect my socials to my bank. I don't want to rent the thing I used to own. I don't want to get notifications on my phone.
