@photex OBS is a great screen recording solution, but it gets a little heavyweight. I prefer ShareX with video support myself for grabbing little snippets of windows

So! After some years of being fairly "unofficial", Unity editor for Linux is more official now. You can just get it via Unity Hub, like regular Windows/Mac editors. https://blogs.unity3d.com/2019/05/30/announcing-the-unity-editor-for-linux/

@Sunsh1ne hello, welcome to the instance!

Received this earlier today. Lol

@txusinho I like listening to classical/jazz to focus on general, or whichever album/track I'm obsessing over right now that had become background noise

Hey, i dont know how people feel about advertising but my gaming community that's run by all #trans staff is a free.

@banditjoj 3D tetris is a hell of a thing, made a few prototypes of it and it's weird what is fun

We have a new union in France defending the rights of video games workers: STJV. The most awesome thing is that they are translating everything into English. #Strike at #EugenSystem: https://www.stjv.fr/2018/02/eugen-systems-strike-workers-are-holding-on/

Today's #gameidea: You are a lawnmower who is tired of the forced destruction the humans make you unleash. You've always dreamed of living at the beach since the humans dropped a beach house magazine. It has always been your greatest solace, but one day the humans run you over it and your dreams are in shreds..you decide no more and plan to run away to the beach! Plan your stealth carefully, move slowly and avoid noise, or blare at full speed to escape their sight. Louder sounds alert them more.

One really happy moment re: accessibility we had:

From the beginning Dirtbags' controls were designed with the mantra "you should be able to easily play with one hand using the mouse." The hope was to have a design constraint that stop us from doing anything crazy. We had reundant action bindings on keyboard buttons for those who preferred it, but they weren't required.

But then somebody who actually had just 1 hand showed up at our PAX East booth and the game just naturally accommodated him.

Monday on, game face on

@khalladay I remember the Twitter reaction to the reveal was so great because people saw parts of their culture being represented well!

This is a really good post on how Campo Santo created the hair for Zora, their black character in Valley of Gods. I really like that it talks about the cultural implications and not just technical

This is cool (especially how the devs reacted to quickly patch in an overlay to assist the community): "Into the Breach Notation" https://github.com/fontiago/itb-algebraic-notation
