- Reposted by Zach Soaresunbelievably grim to see Valve announce a delightful and exciting compact Linux box approximately 15 seconds before RAM became the more expensive material in the known universe.
- Valve’s Steam Machine has been delayed, and the RAM crisis will impact pricing. Valve is now aiming to launch its Steam Machine in the first half of 2026, rather than early 2026. How much will it cost, though? www.theverge.com/games/874196...

- Hey friends, do any of you know someone at Discord who can sort out server owner issues? We're unable to transfer ownership to a new account because the previous owning account was banned due to a hack :| Discord support isn't doing anything about it and I'm at my wits end
- Reposted by Zach SoaresLast, but absolutely not least, Beidi (@tinystorm.bsky.social) created all the art for Mythmatch. Beidi has been on the project from the very beginning to the very end, just wrapping up last week.
- Mythmatch is getting to the point where some folks are wrapping up their tasks and also, others wrapped long ago, but I'm only realizing now. So I'm going to quote tweet this post to talk about them. But if you see this, you can see their work in action here: store.steampowered.com/app/1778050/...
- Reposted by Zach SoaresOverall: 28% laid off in the last 2 years US: 33% Design/narrative: 20% in the last 12mo (most impacted discipline) 48% said they haven't found a new job, and the survey admits these numbers are likely an undercount. Fun fact: the survey would boot you out if you'd been out of work >2 years.
- More than a quarter of developers surveyed by GDC say they were laid off in the last 24 months, and around half of them say they haven't found a new job yet. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/more-th...

- New shonen jump manga, Under Doctor is very promising! I don’t anticipate this getting axed this year, here’s hoping the mangaka is good at writing arcs without rushing
- Still managing a book a week. Just finished 5 (700 pages) but I don’t think I can finish book 6 with 800 pages by Sunday next week 😩 Fantastic reads nonetheless!

- Bone temple is an excellent film. Great on its own and makes the previous film better. A weird achievement for a very late sequel of a sequel

- Finished reading Frankenstein. Damn good book. So much social commentary can be discussed around it, still very poignant.
- Live, doing some voxel art tutorial recording. Feel free and come learn (click my pfp)
- Bluesky's "go live" feature is super weak atm and not that handy. It should use a schedule system so you can just input a time you intend to go live, or, alternatively, just plug into your twitch to detect when you're live. The current use is very cumbersome 😤

- Writing/prepping youtube tutorials for voxel art and adjacent gamedev stuff. Anything particular knowledge anyone would like to learn about voxel art?

- Reposted by Zach SoaresAnyone equating crunch with quality in the year of our lord 2026 is so woefully out of touch with the reality of gamedev it’s actually a little funny.
