The lack of art fundamentals in student work is shocking. The simplest things - composition, colour theory, blocking - I’ve seen so many portfolio’s that are clearly built with zero foundational knowledge.

My hot take... I hate that video game characters now look like the actors playing them.

This book terrified me. This looks incredible.

Damn - I take a few days of social media detox, and we get Alien Isolation 2 trailer, a Cronos DLC - and a STAR TREK HORROR GAME BY @BlooberTeam ????

dev day 588: My game now generated random missions. On top of that I built a web interface for writing text for generating a matching mission name and briefing based on the random parameters. #indiegamedev #gamedesign #buildinpublic

Its really weird to see people acting like Unreal 6 is like... the sequel to Unreal 5. Its just another point release.

It would have been cool to see Homelander actually go bezerk - but I mostly liked how it ended. The past 2 seasons of The Boys definitely did dip a lot - but the actors were always fantastic, and in that aspect, the finale worked for me.

I miss when the future felt both possible but also unattainable.

Ok - Hear me out... 007'S

Hope everyone is ready to knuckle down and have an amazing week! Hug your loved ones, phone your parents - drink good coffee - do good work, make cool shit!

I love that this little WIP from our conversation engine looks like a cool 'behind the scenes' photo from a movie. :D

Situation 1 - A button on the moon, with a big pole attached to it, reaching back to Earth. Situation 2 - A button on the moon, connected to a button on Earth via radio. Which method be the faster way to press the button?

The fact that they didn't put him in fancy dress-robes is atrocious.

I long to have enough money to be considered a plucky indie studio.

Dead Space 1 - - $37 Million dollar budget. Dead Space 2 - - $40 - $60 Million dollar budget. Dead Space 3 - Possibly $100 million ... Maybe make a $37 Million Dollar game again? Did that quadruple in price quadruple the quality?

I'm always blown away by artists who will spend months making an incredibly detailed model of something like a fire hydrant or a box of matches. Its a special kind of crazy.

I swear we a living in a simulation, and its slowly degrading. This is the trailer for the movie - Pacifico. It entered production in 2022... But it felt SO familiar. I was so sure I'd seen the trailer before. So I googled it.. This trailer was uploaded in 2016 - youtube.com/watch?v=4VI8G7jM… The video has a decades worth of comments on it. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING. Movie looks amazing tho. I can see why it left an impression on me OVER A DECADE AGO.

I’ve only ever player the Call Of Duty single player campaigns. And I’ve loved most of them. Modern Warfare and Infinite Warfare are exceptional. Just good solid fun action games.
