Were closing in on 8 years for the Epic Games Store and yet still no forum, user profiles, universal controller support or Workshop style mod system.
Tim Sweeney should seriously focus on his own product and less on Gabe Newell and his product.

Tim Sweeney is taking another shot at Steam.
The Epic Games CEO claims Valve has “held gaming back for years” by locking PC games into Steamworks’ ecosystem.
Sweeney argues that Steam’s social features make it harder for players on PC to communicate cross-platform while also criticizing Steam’s 30% cut.
However, that claim isn’t completely accurate. Valve’s Steam Datagram Relay can also be used across other platforms.

If you'd like to support me (for free) you could help out by wishlisting All-in-1 on Steam. It's at 2,000 wishlists now but hoping to reach 5,000 or (even better) 10,000 before release!

Im starting to think this shit isnt about AI at all. This is just Tim's latest attempt to tarnish Valve by politicizing them even though they literally do nothing (and win) by trying to make them publicly react to his ravings so he can drag them into culture war.

Steam's AI disclosures are akin to "forcing developers to list their voting history", says man who must hate seeing eggs virtue signal that they're free-range bit.ly/4yHFEyK

#MadeWithDefold #webgames #gamedev #indiedev
Hello, hello! 🌿
While I am working on turning Ash Islands into something bigger, I decided to post an updated version of the jam submission on itch.
No new levels or upgrades, but it has a reworked resource gathering mechanic and a bunch of fixes/improvements
