Law of least astonishment/surprise. Things should work the way most people think they should work. This was originally invented to apply to code and UI, but I think it applies to game design, too.
What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.
There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.
Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

It's understandable that Unreal needs to touch a lot of files when starting the editor. But what if I told you that >5500 of those files are not needed for the editor to start at all and are just adding seconds to the editor launch time?

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.

Im going to start to work on assets pack to seel on itch with my isometric art style, I think at first the theme will be something more generic fantasy but if they work maybe adding other themes, starting with characters and basic animations and then moving to tiles and scenario assets.
