It's almost time for Ramadan, as Muslims tonight peered to the crescent moon to see if the month of Ramadan starts tonight or the day after. As with every year, I'm starting this thread so that people can ask questions, and learn about Ramadan from one person's perspective of it.

It’s pretty common for a player to say something like “selling items at the shop isn’t worth it, you should increase how much the items are worth” and then it turns out the game economy is fine but the actual problem is they have to walk too far to get to the shop and back

Remember: When you playtest a game, never take players’ feedback/suggestions at face value. Figure out what emotion is underneath what they’re telling you, and then figure out what in the game is causing that emotion

Boutta do some #gamedev and vibes in an On-Together lobby, if anyone is interested. I'll also be streaming to twitch! Working on Art Attack, but maybe something else too? Anyway, come hang!

The antidote is:
-documentation
-collective action
-survivor-centered support
-relentless, or as Trump calls it, “boring” transparency
That’s how coverups actually collapse but you have to actually show up.

The amount of times I sit in a call with a dreamer and their dream game is basically "everything from my favorite six games smashed together into perfect harmony and there was endless flawless content and it has graphics everyone likes" and I have to explain that making feet go on stairs is hard
i think what a lot of people never seem to realize is that a lot of people's vision of an "epic dream game" isn't actually very deep and comes down to scale and/or having a lot of features, whereas by embracing limitations you can be pushed in a far more radical direction.
rpgmaker definitely isn't the right tool for everyone, but I think using opinionated pre-baked tools to make some games would be very instructive to a lot of folks setting out to make their epic custom dream game. they're a much lower-stakes way to learn important lessons like "how to tell a story"

tl;dr: we actually need _both_ of the things i mentioned in the first post. people should be able to freely making non-commercial games and be supported through UBI and free healthcare+education. devs wanting to run businesses with commercial art/products need support and funding. both are true.

Anime, VTubing, adult content, table top, and videos games. So basically, anything fun is "high fraud risk". Got a complaint? Here's a list of their numbers. And a couple helpful links to contact other paypros. #SaveSpeech #StopPayPros

Happy Valentines Day! I'm single and indifferent about it, but whether you're seeing someone, married, in a committed relationship or happy alone, remember to love all of yourself, even your flaws. All of you is worthy of love. Hopefully someone has told you that today, but if not, I'm saying it.

Bluesky people need to learn how to take the fucking win. “Where were you when” stuff may feel emotionally satisfying, but it’s loser behavior.

Social media continue to apply the policy that doing genocide is acceptable, but objecting to genocide is not, and suffering genocide is even less welcome.
palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

@Tamer_Alnoaizy
BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was “spam” and that it was “causing harm.” What kind of logic is this?
The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us.
Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as “violations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime.
What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful.
[the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.]

this is a great read on why doing development and talking about development are fundamentally different things
Today's Load-bearing Tomato addresses the age old question:
"why don't the devs just [SOCIAL MEDIA OPINION]"
It turns out, "a lot of reasons", but if you never have to test your ideas, you never have to discover why they're not any good.

Why chasing twitter's approval doesn't work
The opinions you believe are universal are being fed to you by an algorithm designed to show you what you want.

Everyone's situation is different and we're all struggling. There's a lot of stuff we all need to reevaluate about society, and as individuals. But more than anything, we need to maintain kindness and patience. For others, and for ourselves. People are going to see things differently, and that's ok.

When they say:
"no one owes each other anything"
Run away, you won't be able to count on them and they have individualism/capitalism to unpack.
They've been conditioned to believe things can't be any better, that people can't treat each other any better.
You never see ppl like that at mutual aid.
