We even credited everyone who worked on localization - yes, including temporarily trade show localization that didn’t ship in the final game. Crediting people is super cool and very legal you should do it too!
We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

WHY BE STINGY WITH IT! Amazing, 10/10, everybody take notes.
Credits are basically a free space. Players will watch them or not. Those who do will come to understand how each person participated. We also credit everyone who ever touched the game in any way. This means for a relatively small team our credits are long. But who cares? Why be stingy with it?

Before being an indie game dev: oh wow they've been working on this for two years? That's so much of their life dedicated to one project!
After being an indie game dev: oh wow only two years? And they finished it? Like, the whole thing, not a demo? Are you sure?

elon fucking killed a major piece of not only driving game discussion, but also sheer inherent word-of-mouth advertising. it has no doubt kneecapped many small- and mid-sized titles and i can't even tell what big games are popping off right now unless they have a Little Guy people wanna doodle
In a post-Share button world, it's been very hard to tell what games are actually hitting. It takes effort to post clips or fan art.
That new Digimon game has some fan art.
Death Stranding 2? Very few clips
Yotei? A little here
Kirby? You would think it's the biggest game in the world right now

Mastercard is bleeding, get in there. Make some calls. Get some cool family members in on it over thanksgiving
The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge
#Finland will begin to #Russia - proof its rail network, integrate with EU train infrastructure.
The Finnish government has announced the conversion of its rail network from Russian gauge (1,524 mm) to European standard (1,435 mm).

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

In The Labyrinth of Time, entering the Ziggurat without a lantern is supposed to show a black screen. However, the developers put in the wrong filename for the black screen, so it fails to render, showing a black screen instead

the fact they made a texture that works *from the side view* on a *low poly ps1 character model* is genuinely an incredible feat.

at this point i am ready to say i truly cannot distinguish Starmer from a Tory prime minister. he exclusively speaks to that audience and is exclusively interested in gaining votes from that audience
but i'm also ready to bet it's not his idea, he comes across as a man with a think tank led breain

I know everybody is making fun of this for numerous reason but genuinely - what the fuck is the Prime Minister doing on a manosphere podcast hosted by temu Rylan Clark with 15k subs?

Something I really hate about the US-centric "anime is mainstream now" narrative is how local media outlets are uncritically picking it up, I've seen several headlines like that following Kimetsu no Yaiba's box office success, as if the 40something years of anime history in Italy never existed

ANATOMY is a game about a house that’s alive, alone, and hurting. A house that slowly tears itself apart.
I made a video about its beauty, its horror, and the quiet sadness hiding behind its tapes:
