as a reminder about all of my game jams and steam festivals....

games have been releasing for years before chatgpt became popular. you can still release games without using ai-generated assets. using ai-generated assets is a choice.

As a heads up to new/old artists here it is -incredibly- important that you tag your work here or use specific phrases. Because not only do people check tags, your art has the chance to appear in multiple feeds! Unlearn not using twit hashtags and start following multiple feeds of YOUR choosing!

An anecdotal guideline on how I like to post art on Bluesky! This is what works for me, it might not be 100% solid so use it with a grain of salt 🙏

It's important to support the many indie devs who are staunchly anti-genAI and believe first and foremost in collaborative development. My dev friends don't use genAI, that's for sure.

My free 43-page guide to bridging the gap between digital games and physical spaces has been released.

Great for devs who want to bring indie games to local markets, shops, or spaces, and for organizers and business space owners to better understand indie devs!

I'm making a small, mostly light-hearted romance RPG with horror elements (non-commercial) and am looking for a GUI, composer, and audio engineer! If I have any pals who wouldn't mind volunteering, please DM me here, on Discord, or comment here!

Will also be looking for VAs later for a few lines!

I am not fucking joking when I say the English-speaking video game world would be nothing without GameFAQs. Everyone and their mom used it (literally, my mom and all her friends). If you played video games in the 2000s you probably knew GameFAQs in the same way most people know, like, Wikipedia
Hey, happy 30th birthday GameFAQs! Launched on November 5th, 1995!

The earliest scrape I can find on Wayback is December 1996, but I doubt the site changed much. But yes, here it is in its earliest days as the Video Game FAQ Archive!

voicemail for my reps, a 10 minute call with PayPal at this number: 1 (888) 221-1161 (US customer support, keep saying "speak to rep" and you don't have to enter in anything)

for PayPal I was a confused user (who never gave account info) bc my friend had their account restricted for buying ebooks
as always, if you want to support creators and not give into fascism,

There's a good tactic to keep them on the phone longer in here: Start by saying you're concerned about a statement that the processor has put out, and then read the entire statement without stopping. This will cause confusion and awkwardness if they just repeat it back to you, which they likely will

I'll say it again: if you are terminally-online & have a vast reservoir of pent-up angry energy from feeling powerless as the world around you gets worse and worse it is 1000% more productive to direct that energy towards Mastercard, Visa, Stripe, and Paypal than any other target #SaveSpeech
