Play my short (10min) interactive story 1977: Radio Aut. It's about Peppino Impastato, Sicilian kid who was born in a mafia family but decided to spend his life fighting it by every possible means. alexkalopsia.itch.io/1977-ra… Any RT means a world to me for this project. #NOMAFIA
California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a bill into law that will force storefronts to admit that you don't actually own your digitally purchased games, films, and TV shows - you're just licensing them. bit.ly/3N0Kn9v
I've been tempted to try #GodotEngine for a while, and last weekend - during #gmtkjam - it finally happened.
This is my very subjective experience of using it for the first time (tl;dr: I am a very happy kid): 🧵
3) Version Control: #godot never gave us a lot of confidence here. Resave? Reload? Overwrite? Keep? What are the changes, even? It quickly turned our flow into "save changes > close Godot > pull merge > reopen Godot"
That's about it, of course this is in the context of a gamejam where things are messy and unorganized, but I do think it's very likely that from now on #GodotEngine will be my go-to choice for prototyping: it was fun to think about the game, without the engine getting in the way.
Sorry team @_PhantomSpark, you didn't have to spend years making tons of super fun tracks and beautiful environments. Stage 1 is perfect and I'll stay here forever and ever until I'm im the top10, I'm never leaving ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Very *very* relatable blog post by @joonturbo . I've been lucky enough to have somewhat regular video calls with wonderful old time industry friends over the past few years, but social media isolation has been both liberating and exhausting. joon.be/blog/?post=2024.06.0…
You can still find me on Mastodon, where I have a much better and curated experience, but do feel free and encouraged to send me a DM / email if you want to hang out and/or (re)connect.
It's so sad how you either isolate and obliterate yourself into absolute social media detachment, severing many of your digital connections, or you have to put up with an infinite flow of shit and hateful content
