100 Diffuse Textures by Luis Guilherme Bento
100 photographed tiled textures and decals
epicmcdude.itch.io
I've made 2 packs with 100 diffuse textures each, they're free to download and use wherever!
Pack 1: epicmcdude.itch.io/100-photo-te...
Pack 2: epicmcdude.itch.io/100-diffuse-...
These are game-ready seamless and horizontally tiled textures, as well as some decals. I used these on my own game.

My mom’s first camera, a Praktica MTL 5B made in East Germany (GDR) in the 1980s!
I’ll be putting this in the game for a gameplay mechanic that’s been on my mind for a while

Yeah... some of my absolute favorite games are Demon's Souls, Dark Souls and Bloodborne but you'd never know because I never talk about them! Just yesterday I tried the PS4 emulator so I could try Bloodborne at 60fps and holy shit it's still so beautiful

Hey y'all, I'm trying to survive the last few months of development on 500 Cal, so I'm looking for work. I can do character models, UI, logos, character design, cover art, music videos, consulting, whatever the hell you need. Dm me or email at [email protected]

worked in generalized targeting, allowing factions to sense and fight each other. should be many benefits: fleeing wildlife hinting at enemy positions, letting the player 'third party' skirmishes, and also the inclusion of friendly survivors like this poor guy (differentiated by their teal lights)

Testing a sound propagation mechanic using the NavMesh, this way the sound can "travel" around corners and closed doors affect the max distance the sound can travel.
Still not sure how viable this is for the full game though!

Brush Burial: Gutter World is OUT NOW.
it's a lite immersive sim with tightly interconnected levels, a melee combat system based on positioning and counterattacks, and almost a hundred cosmetics to unlock.
you can get it on Steam, and play the demo there as well.

Tip for a pacifist run: you can ride the info drones flying around in this level and with a high enough athletic build you can go inside the CorpMend building through the balconies outside, skipping the elevator ride

Cool thing about my game, you can literally kill everyone and still complete the story. You can also not kill anyone at all!
And every boss has a way of dealing with them indirectly, you never have to fight any of them

A reminder that for every billion dollars made on PC gaming, Newell pockets $300m.
He keeps out of the public eye better than some billionaires, but he is still a libertarian billionaire, and billionaires should not exist.

This is so funny, Ubisoft were arguable one of the pioneers of "games as a service", constantly updating and offering microtransactions in single/multiplayer games so people played these for as long as possible. Motherfucker you made the bed!

Well, fuck. Revoking any and all Peripeteia recommendations (and I wish I could un-back it on Kickstarter) based on the very thinly veiled transphobia from the dev (the first one in the screenshots here).
I hate this.

"Second stage is people rejecting conspiracy discourse" is genuinely hilarious, I gotta teach em a little about Yakub and maybe they'll change their tune

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:
"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

Can't wait for Geoff Keighley to use The Game Awards show and call out Rockstar for this obvious union busting 👍
I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.
