Some people said "what if there was a gamedev twitter, without the rest of twitter bs", and then I spun up this Mastodon instance. mastodon.gamedev.place If you're a game developer (or related to that), or want to discuss/follow game development and related fields, join!

The same thing goes for everyone who does work at Valve or on Steam. Discord is not a channel that Valve uses for customer support.

Are you a MARKETING FREELANCER? Think you got an eye for RHYTHM-GAMES? Most important of all: YOU UP FOR A CHALLENGE?! Hi, I'm Tom. Klang 2 released last year, a rhythm-action game I'm super proud of, despite struggling to find an audience for it. Please help!🥴 DM's open.

There is no ‘teacher shortage’. There are thousands of qualified experiences teachers who are no longer teaching. There’s a shortage of respect and proper compensation for teachers allowing them to actually teach.

ever wonder why the cheap junk flooding Amazon has keyboard-mashing brand names like MOFFBUZW? let's dive into an example... the 2nd organic result for "baby moccasins" has: - 0 reviews - no Prime offer - 20 day shipping (lol) - a brand name that literally looks like Dog Shit

Check this thread on the massive counterfeit business of books on Amazon. Seems like the only solution is to buy directly from the publisher.
I've been asked about this a lot, so let me provide a quick FAQ. Q: What's the nature of the issue? A: Anyone who has bought my book from Amazon in the past few month hasn't bought a genuine copy, but a lower-quality counterfeit copy printed by various fraudulent sellers.

🚨🎨LOOKING FOR ARTISTS! I'm looking for an artist to illustrate a card game. Looking for someone that can do high-energy character designs and poses with a lot of visual impact, maybe posterized, perhaps with a manga or comic influence. 👇Drop your portfolio links! No DMs pls!

I absolutely love my job, and what I get to do for a living. But sometimes working in the game industry really does be like this 😐

“I'm a big introvert, which is one reason why I love games,” says Jane McGonigal [@avantgame]. “They provide a formal structure for our social interactions. For many introverts, it's relaxing.” Listen now: freak.ws/3LIFfDH

Every time I think about smart contracts, I think about how often code memory leaks, then remember that with Solidarity the leak is money, and I laugh and laugh. 🤦‍♂️
$34 million, or 11,539 eth, is permanently locked into the AkuDreams contract forever. It cannot be retrieved by individual users or by the dev team. The refund processing, which is complete, sets each bid status to 1.
