Need a pinned post. I'm the Creative Director at Everbloom Games. For seven years we've been making Minecraft maps as one of the leading partners in the program, we've recently started work on our own indie titles. I love games, narrative, art, science, some would say I can elicit a chuckle or two

Game design is the art of creating an enticing itch and rewarding you for scratching it.

Wow, can't believe soulless, dead-eyed slop merchant Mr Beast doesn't like charismatic, kind, empathetic NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

I wish just once a reporter would ask some of the men behind these technologies: Does it bother you knowing that you've created an engine to skip the need for their consent after death from women who likely would have never consented while living?

It's insane that someone at the Jellybean company was like "What if we make some bad flavors ON PURPOSE?" And it got approved and was actually successful.

Wounded Knee is a dark stain upon our nation’s history. We must remember it for what it truly was, not for what white nationalists would have it be.

This is so nice. What an honor to be in such company. 😭
My front runner for performance of the year pick now goes to @erikaishii.bsky.social after Ghost of Yotei. It’s nice that the Expedition 33 talent have some direct competition. It’s one of my favorite performances ever in a Sony game for sure.

Review | ‘Ghost of Yotei’ sharpens the samurai revenge formula with raw feeling
The open-world PlayStation epic excels thanks to a revenge story written with precision and heart, backed by a compelling lead performance.

Hard to believe that we were at PAX West less than a week ago. Thank you for the love for Nullpoint Protocol! If Roguelite-RAIDlike boss rushes are your jam shoot us a wishlist on Steam!

Additionally the larger stuff I was able to see was the new Onimusha, and Valor Mortis. A load of smaller projects like Etre, a space salvage adventure game called Black Jackal, an MMO style boss rush game called Nullpoint Protocol, and loads more…

Our team, some friends and one very tired girl spent the evening organizing all of YOUR art from #PAX this weekend. We fought over Jackbox who got to take what home.
It's time to sit down, plug in, but not glaze over because we're motivated to make Nullpoint Protocol the best for you all.

This is in the replies and it demonstrates a real issue which is if you find profundity from an AI, you’re responding to something profound a human being wrote that was vacuumed up and what ends up happening is you thank AI and not only don’t thank the person, you have no idea they were involved

How do I convince my very intelligent dad that using ChatGPT is bad? He's a doctor and finds it incredibly useful for patients summaries and info although acknowledges the problems with it. His main argument is that you can't put the genie back in the bottle so why resist it?
