This list is freaking awesome. Sooo much good stuff on there and a great reminder for myself of stuff I still mean to check out.

I got no excuse, it's all free!!

Filled in a few more details and added a few more games to my Big List Of Free PC Games.

Did you know that the latter two Penny Arcade RPGs are now completely free? I only found that out today!

Yay, das Gothic Remake hat seinen "Gamer kennen Frauen nur vom Bildschirm"-Moment, da man vor kurzem die Modelle für zwei weibliche Figuren gesehen hat die... normal aussehen.

Am besten aber die Antwort von offizieller Seite: "There wont be any form of censorship or effeminacy." Am Ziel vorbei lol

found these old ff8 comics and laughed at them somehow so i will post them here. i literally had to look up irvine's name
1 Irvine: "Betcha I can kill that sorceress with a gun" Squall: "(I don't know who this is.)" Squall: "(Are we traveling with this person? I literally don't know his name" Selphie: "haha wow cool" Zell: "good to have you on the team" Squall: "(someone say his name)" 2 Irvine: "Auuhh god what was I thinking, I can't do it" Squall: "Hey...c'mon, now." Squall: "I bet you can kill a sorceress with a gun if you really try." Irvine: "you're just saying that" Squall: "(Well what the fuck else do you want me to do)"

Audio (sound effects, music, and dialogue) has a weird relationship with temp assets, mostly because of issues revolving around human psychology.

Problem #1: How do you communicate that something you're hearing is temp?

The annoying thing about the "oh we left a placeholder" generative AI slop excuse is that that is EXACTLY NOT how you should be using placeholders. Anything "not obviously terrible with a panicked hurried half-awake glance" is getting shipped.
rajio.bsky.social Raj Patel @rajio.bsky.social · 12d
In gamedev, if you're using a placeholder asset, best practices involve marking it as placeholder so garishly and offensively clearly PLACEHOLDER that you can't possibly miss it. Also flagging that asset in the dev process so it can be identified quickly before the final build.

Krikzz has added a solar sensor and a motion sensor to GBA EverDrive which means you could now play Hideo Kojima's masterpiece 'Boktai' on it.

Hab ein neues Mikrofon -- und wollte es ausprobieren! Wie früher in meinen "Fundubs", hab ich mir eine Folge von #tadc geschnappt, und chronologisch on the fly die Dialoge übersetzt und alle eingesprochen.
Hatte vergessen wie viel Spaß das macht 😅

Können Spiele unsere Demokratie stärken- oder sogar gefährden? Klingt für manche absurd, einige aber sind vom Potential des Mediums überzeugt. Dazu gehört auch die Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung, die sich längst in der Spielewelt engagiert. Ich fragte nach: warum? okcool.space/ok-cool-frag...
