Here's the dev update. It's an examination of features of war/sports games that the dev wants to reimagine. Examples include emphasis on building character growth arcs into campaigns, making victory less important than story, etc.
It's crunchy, but fans of #gamedevelopment should take a look.

Looks like 3000 words weren't enough to talk about code, so here comes another 1500 words to expand a little bit more on the topic. This time around, the State Machine, and some interesting thoughts and use cases. Interested in you?
I have implemented platforms, a new tool for making bridges and making cave exploration etc nicer. I think they'll be an important element in letting the player build and create things while keeping the feeling of the world as this semi-immutable pre-existing thing that you can't just modify at will #gamedev #gamedevelopment
I am holding a giveaway for my Tiny RPG Hero Printer. You can now add your own assets to the library, pushing the customization even further. Rules of the giveaway? Just boost this toot so more people can get it as well :) There are 50 available keys up for grabs!
For #ScreenshotSaturday, here are some minor updates on my #Mario #ROMhack/game mod.
Like a chase scene with a Grinder and a mine cart stage from world 2.
I'm setting up a workstation for an upcoming project. Everything except the monitor is too new (relatively speaking, most computer parts are from the late 90s). I've plugged together what I have, and I'm waiting for some new (old) parts.
Does anyone have tips on how to create an appealing page on Itch.io?

nadworna wiedźma Admael to jedna z trzech fan postaci które wymyśliłem do JJ2: Demon Dash
już oryginalne JJ2 wprowadziło motywy magii, zaświatów, demonów itp. i moja historia ciągnie to dalej, więc potrzebny był ktoś, kto trochę lepiej ogarniałby takie paranormalne tematy niż Jazz i jego rodzinka; Admael jest wg. porządku fabularnego DD pierwszym takim NPC, pełni trochę rolę takiego dodatkowego tutoriala do nowych rzeczy które wprowadzam (przeciwnicy, przeszkody, blabla)
poza tym kanoniczne żeńskie postacie w świecie Jazza są generalnie jakieś mniej więcej takie same, poza najwyżej królową (sexy wg. jakiegoś ogólnego standardu, dojrzałe, spokojne, ogarnięte, takie rzeczy), więc bardzo chciałem wypełnić lukę żeby w kobiecej obsadzie też był jakiś głupolowaty nakręcony gremlin jak Spaz :D

Made for a modeling jam. I was hoping to animate it but I ran out of time. I was going to set the texture filtering to linear like I usually do with N64-style models, but I kinda like the pixelated look.
There has been a LOT of human job losses due to #I in the #GameDevelopment industry. Good to see folks taking a stand!
Pay rises, AI regulation, and layoff protection: what #ActivisionBlizzard's newly unionised employees want from #Microsoft
A big development.
By Connor Makar, Published on Aug. 22, 2025
Excerpt: "[Scott Alsworth from the #UK's #IWGB Union] credits the increase in #unionisation efforts to several factors: #TechnologicalDisplacement (especially poignant with the push for #AI), a greater number of #WorkingClass people joining the video game industry who bring a greater awareness of unionisation, and a response to the state of the industry as a whole."
