If you like Half-Life: Alyx mods, then maybe you'll like this private playtest that I'm making public. The project will probably never be completed, but I wanted people to see it anyway

Cheat Sheet v.2

nothing from the prior version is incorrect, but ive made it a little easier to read, plus included a bit more helpful information

MAKE YOUR CALLS!!!

WHY?
On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells
games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the
group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal,
and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing
restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell.

Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell.

If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

1. VISA:
(US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

2. MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 (8001-307-7309
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111

3. STRIPE:

Stripe: complaints@stripe.com

4. PAYPAL:

Sounds a lot like the perceived skill cycle!

A graph comparing an artist's skill at creating art to their skill at evaluating art. When their skill to create is higher, there's an art high where they feel great. When the skill to evaluate is higher, there's an art low where the artist loses confidence. But the key is: both skill levels are always improving.

Quick art tip: If your glowy lights look flat/boring (they read more like fog than light), it might be because you're fading from 100% to 0%.

Instead, try using an off color, and boost it to, say, 150%. This gives the same peak color, but fades through a different tone.

#gamedev #indiedev

Top three panels show the "flat and boring" versions of glowy lights. Their colors are cyan, yellow, and white. As they fade, they remain cyan, yellow, and white.

Bottom three panels show the "interesting and bright" alternatives. The cyan light fades into blue. The yellow light fades into orange. The white light fades into a slightly yellow off-white.

I recreated Joey's Gibson virus from the movie Hackers and it runs on a vintage Powerbook Duo. When you launch the "virus" it makes a new post to the Bluesky bot @hacktheplanet.simone.computer

Before you ask no this is not actually a virus 😜
