ljubljana games club - BABBDI (2022)
Muzej sodobne umetnosti Metelkova, Monday, April 7 at 06:00 PM GMT+2
ljubljana games club so srečanja na katerih se bomo pogovarjale_i o igrah kot mediju, katerega je vredno občudovati, spoštovati ter kritizirati v vsej svoji raznolikosti. vsak teden se bomo posvetili drugi temi (igri, avtorjem, žanru …), ki jo bodo izbrali obiskovalci kluba
8. April ob 18:00 v Knjigarni MSUM
Zakaj v linearnih igrah fantaziramo o "pobegu" iz tirnic, v open world-ih pa se nam zdaj "vidiš to goro? Lahko jo preplezaš" zdi že skoraj vsakdanje?
O tem lahko razmišljaš na vlaku, prvo je treba dobiti karto in priti do postaje. Misija je namreč preprosta - zapustiti je treba mesto BABBDI.
Na naslednjem srečanju se bomo spustili v pogovor o kratkem indie hitu BABBDI bratov Lemaitre. Poleg igre same se bomo pogovarjali o digitalnih okoliših kot samozadostnih svetovih, "exploration" igrah, pobegih iz tračnic iger, o trikih, ki jih
igre izvajajo da vzbujajo lažen občutek večjega sveta in pa seveda o vseh temah, ki se bodo pojavile tekom diskusije.
BABBDI je na voljo zastonj na Steam-u ali a Itch.io, traja pa nekje med 10 minutami ter 1 uro.

ljubljana games club is a book club, except instead of reading books we play games. we meet up every second thursday of the month in the spaces of MSUM+ from 18:00 to 20:00.
8th of April 18:00, MSUM bookstore
Why do we fantasize of "breaking out of bounds" in linear games, yet in open worlds "see that mountain? You can climb over there." ny now feels almost mundane?
You can ponder this on the train, but first you need to get a ticket and make your way to the train station. The mission is simple - You need to leave the city of BABBDI.
On the next meeting we will discuss the short indie hit BABBDI by Lemaitre brothers. Alongside talking about the game itself we will talk about digital spaces as self-sufficient worlds, exploration games, boundary breaks, about tricks games pull to give a false sense of a larger world and of course about any topics that might come up during the discussion itself.
BABBDI is available for free on Steam and Itch.io and takes somewhere between 10 minutes and an hour to complete.

lj games club – Srečanje 16 Novi poker
Muzej sodobne umetnosti Metelkova, Tuesday, March 11 at 06:00 PM GMT+1
11. marec ob 18:00 v Knjigarni MSUM
“Poker je trenutno zelo dolgočasen, saj je optimalna igra zelo dolgočasna. Veliko časa je treba samo odstopati. Ko sem se prvič začel ukvarjati s pokrom, je bil tako vznemerljiv in razburljiv, na primer pri kombinacijah, ki jih sestaviš, situacijah, v katerih se znajdejo igralci. In mislim, da ima Balatro v sebi enako čarobnost, ki je pri pravem pokru že dolgo ni bilo čutiti.” - Profesionalni igralec pokra Ken Cheng v intervjuju za GamesRadar
Na našem naslednjem srečanju, ki bo potekalo 11. marca v prostorih MSUM, bomo igrali lanskega ljubljenčka neodvisnih iger Balatro. Igra je opredeljena kot pokru podoben “roguelike deckbuilder”, v katerem igralec uporablja pokerske kobinacije in pridobiva žetone za premogavanje sovražnikovih blindov. Zasnovana je na kantonski igri s kartami Big Two, ki igralcem omogoča, da s pokerskimi kombinacijami nabirajo točke.
Balatro je znan po svojem zasvojljivem sistemu točkovanja, ki vključuje posebne Joker karte za modificiranje igrinih pravil, in ki ustvarja posebno vznemirjenje ob naraščanju številk. Na srečanju bomo preučili mehanike igre, da ugotovimo, zakaj je igra tako privlačna, in jo uporabili kot izhodišče za razpravo o igrah s kartami na splošno. Balatro je mogoče igrati več sto ur, vendar igra od igralcev ne zahteva veliko časa. Posamezna seansa običajno traja od 15 do 30 minut. Priporočeno je, da vsak igralec preigra nekaj seans in preizkusi različne kombinacije Joker kart.

ENGLISH
“Poker right now is very boring, because optimal play is very boring. It’s just folding a lot of the time. When I first got into poker, it was so exciting and so riveting, like the hands you make, the situation players get. And I think Balatro has that same kind of magic to it, that hasn’t really been felt with real poker for a long time.” - Professional poker player Ken Cheng in an interview for GamesRadar
For our next session, which will take place on the 11th of March in the spaces of MSUM, we will be playing last year’s indie darling Balatro. Balatro is a poker-inspired roguelike deckbuilder where you play poker hands and earn chips to defeat enemy blinds. It is based on the Cantonese card game Big Two, which lets players score poker-styled hands for points.
Balatro is known for its addictive scoring system, which integrates special rule-modifying Joker-cards and which gives the game its unique ‘numbers-go-up’ thrill. We will examine Balatro’s mechanics to explore what makes the game so compelling and use the game as a jumping-off point for discussing card games more generally. Balatro can be played for hundreds of hours, but the game does not demand a lot of time from its players. A single session usually lasts from 15 to 30 minutes. Each player should try the game out for a few sessions and try different joker combinations.

[ kontrolerji 🎮] game making meetups
osmo/za, Wednesday, March 19 at 05:00 PM GMT+1
(eng version below)
skupaj z Ljudmilo bi vam rad povabil na game-making srečanja [ kontrolerji 🎮]. To so meeti za ustvarjalke_ce računalniških iger kjer bomo lahko delili znanje drug z drugim!
na hitro
drugo srečanje bo 19.03. ob 17:00 v osmo/zi, naslednja pa vsako trejto sredo v mesecu. Brin bo predstavil potek procesa ustvarjanja iger iz njegovih izkušenj ter omenil orodja različnih težavnosti, ki se lahko uporabljajo za ustvarjanje iger.
p.s.: prinesi lapto oz. nas kontaktiraj če ga nimaš.
prijave (!!!)
za lažjo organizacijo srečanj, prosimo, da svojo udeležbo javite na: katja@ljudmila.org ali pa jo javite v discord kanalu
ethos kontrolerjev je…
Da so računalniške igre mlad medij z brezmejno širino. Lahko govorimo o mainstream streljačinah, dostopnih puzzle igrah za igranje na avtobusu, umetniških virtualnih svetovih, predstavljenih v galerijah, ali eksperimentalnih igrah, ki rušijo pričakovanja.
Da je ustvarjanje iger je vključujoče in dostopno. Obstaja tisoče načinov in orodij ustvarjanja iger, od teh kjer se ne dotakneš programiranja do teh kjer preživiš dni v terminalu.
Da želimo ustvariti skupnost ustvarjalk_cev na geografskem področju Slovenije, ki cenijo širino medija ter drug drugega. Srečanja so namenjena tako tem, ki ravno končujejo svoj magnum opus, kot tistim, ki ustvarjajo majhne igre v Bitsyju ter tem, ki še ne vedo kje začeti.
akcijski plan
redna in brezplačna srečanja za udeleženke_ce z različnimi predznanji
izmenjava game-making znanja (demonstracije, show-and-tell projektov, predstavitve orodij)
praktično ustvarjanje (coworking, mini game-jami), torej prinesi laptop da se lahko učiš v praksi
principi delovanja
deljenje odgovornosti / odprtost za skupnostno delovanje – več ljudi “organizira/vodi”
raznolikost: varni prostori za ženske, ne-binarne in trans osebe
pravila obnašanja: berlincodeofconduct.org
English
together with Ljudmila we would like to invite you to game-making meetups [ kontrolerji 🎮]. these are meetups for (future) game-makers where we can share our knowledge with each other and further our practice.
quick notes:
the first meetup will be on the 19th of February at 18:00 in osmo/za with the next ones being every third Wednesday in a month. We will introduce each other and our practice (or desire) of making games and cap off the meeting by learning a small tool called pocket platformer where we will make a simple platformer game.
ps: bring a laptop or let us know if you don’t have one.
sing-ups
for an easier time of coordinating the meetups please confirm your participation by letting us know that you would like to attend at katja@ljudmila.org
the [ kontrolerji 🎮] ethos is…
that games are a young medium with untapped potential. we can be making mainstream shooters, accessible puzzle games for phones, art pieces for museums and galleries or experimental games that break our expectations.
that game making is accessible and inclusive. there are thousands of ways to make a game and all are equally valid. you can use tools where you spend nights in the terminal or tools where you don’t need to touch the code editor, you are still making a game.
that we want to create a community on the geographical space of Slovenia that values its participants as well as the width and diversity of the medium. the meetups are intended for those that are finishing their magnum opus just as well as those that are making their first game in Bitsy
plan of action
once-a-month free to participate meetups for participants of all skill levels
exchange of game-making knowledge (demos, show-and-tells, workshops)
praxis and learning by making (co-working sessions, game jams) therefore bring a laptop
principles of operation
self-organisation; we work on the meetups together and share responsibility
diversity; this is safe space for women, non-binary and trans individuals

Hello,
Quick question for the English-speaking peeps around here.
A friend of mine may be looking for a new instance to move to after her old instance was shut down.
We're looking for a stable instance. Something quiet, lively but with no internal drama.
Needs to be #LGBTQ #QueerFriendly #Transfriendly
For the general thematics ideally : #art #Theater #zine #zines #Poetry oriented.
A British instance is even better but I guess not mandatory.
Any reco?
RT welcome!

Anyone know if there is a list of adult friendly web host companies? Specifically asking about "adult friendly" because I have some projects that I'd like to leave open for erotic art, photo and stories
Sometimes queer/LGBTQIA+ gets rolled up into the classification of "adult", depending on the person you ask. I hate that pidgeonholing and misclassification, but all the reason to look for adult/ero friendly hosting options
Like my email service desires, I'm open to hosting located outside of the USA (and/or the 14 eyes)

I love my stylist, and you should too! 💕💙
* Do you live near Seattle, or like flying?
* Have you ever wanted a haircut that makes you scream "Holy shit, I look great!"?
* Do you want a stylist who is absolutely a-fuckin-mazing?!
Meet Nicole.
I've gone to her twice, and will continue to forever now. My past 2 haircuts have been the best I've ever had, and she gives me wine! She's great.
She ditched a big corporate-owned salon to start her own thing, and she needs more clients!
