Yet another veteran games studio touched by the all-consuming hand of private equity. Two months after the buyout, they're stripped for parts.

Splash damage did a lot of good stuff over the years, and didn't get nearly enough love.

This is a mother’s plea from Gaza
My daughter Alma is fading from hunger, her cries breaking my heart. We have no food, and no way to ease her pain
Your compassion could bring her a meal or medicine she desperately needs. Please, help my girl survive

Santa Ragione are a well-known studio, covered by a great many mainstream outlets. Their latest game will not be releasing on Steam for... reasons? Steam won't tell them why, won't tell them what needs fixing, and won't communicate in general.

Every other store will carry it. Just not Steam.
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

If you use StreamElements chatbot, be aware of this.

If I'm understanding correctly, this is expected behavior and the streamer is responsible... but for creators, be cautious with commands running (touser) or (#) variables if you run other bots alongside StreamElements.
Hacking Twitch Chat 😎 L3TH4L_P4ND4 shows me what looks like template injection or unsanitized variable expansion with StreamElements, then leverages Nightbot to mod yourself, ban accounts, change livestream settings or many more hijinks 😜 Video: youtu.be/8G45lYCZzZ8

Since changing the Partner requirements a month ago, about 770 streamers have become Partners.

This is a 20% increase in new partners per month compared to the monthly average from the last year (~640/month).

At the same time, about 6% fewer streamers are going live compared to this time last year
Twitch has updated the Path to Partner achievement to reflect the "6 Streams, 6 Days, with 75+ CCV" over the course of 60 days.

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.
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.

I'll pay attention to TGA when it actually does something meaningful for the industry it allegedly serves besides taking in shedloads of cash and exploiting people, especially the marginalised.

So I did the thing before I chickened out (or came to my senses) and threw up a GFM as a stop gap measure. I hate doing it more than anyone will hate seeing another fund raiser.

As y'all may know by now;
I'm against the Death Penalty.
As it won't bring back victims.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
And it's a very cruel punishment.
Thankfully, Mr. Wood was spared
