Looks like Azzurra Monde fucked around and found out

I cannot wait for the day that people like this who slander innocents to no end finally get sued into bankruptcy for defamation

Try not to blatantly libel people next time bibi ;P

Soulash 2, indie game blacklisted by the woke industry for not featuring homosexuality.

There is no drama this time, and there is not even a trailer for the new update. The marketing is mostly word of mouth from fans who love the game.

Gaming is and always will be about fun.

I see some people keep repeating the debunked lies spread under censorship on /r/roguelikes, so for anyone who wishes to know why a queer person was banned or why I used harsh words to oppose the group, the documented events are here:

I recommend reading 1984 by George Orwell. There's a fantastic comic version with illustrations by Fido Nesti.

It will help understand why fake political divisions are being created and why one side needs to be in a heavily moderated space to continue radicalizing itself unchallenged.

Smear campaigns, fabricating evidence, slander, disinformation, labeling as enemies (homophobe, transphobe, fascist), psychological pressure, and isolation.

Does that sound familiar?

These are Soviet Union tactics to character assassinate dissidents of the prevailing ideology.

I'm not a homophobe, and this post is another attempt at targeted harassment I've been under for 7 months.

In my full post, I said I would build a more welcoming community for indies and players worldwide that would not require global left-wing political allegiance.

this is his own words. he just says that gaming should be fun, not for brainwashing and proselytizing which the pseudo progressive stance is.

that progress flag tells me all i need to know.

I'm gay, i talked to the man. anyone who likes your tweet should be seen as full of shit.

Looks fun!
Early Access release on Friday!
I planned to release Cyclopean: The Great Abyss in 2024, but it still needs some time to bake. Early Access will help me polish out some of the rough edges. #EarlyAccess #CRPG #IndieGameDev

Got to act 5 of BM: Wukong yesterday.

It's tough to pick between gaming and gamedev, with so many awesome things to do.

If BM: Wukong is not a GOTY contender, 2024 must be the best year in gaming history, and I need to pick up more games.

It's been a long while since I had so much fun in AAA.

Curious to see where this app is going now that it's open to the public.

The feed looks cool, with many happy people sharing their work, but the occasional nazi talk was disappointing. I need to check those filters.

If there's anyone interested in apolitical gaming and gamedev, let's connect. 🍻

Eh, gotta do GUI work this week, my least favorite part of gamedev.

What are you guys up to?
July 3, 2023 at 8:35 AM
It may be the first time I completely cleared the board while working on my game.

What a great week!

Testing if gifs work here.

Does anyone here like procedural generation in gamedev?
