I uninstalled the apps for this place from my phone! Will check the desktop web version once in a while, but I'm really trying to get off here completely. I know the social media thrash is exhausting, but look how heckin' cute the mascot is!🐘

Wonderful! This is what folks want to see, and only a day or two turn-around is not too shabby for a big org to admit fault and do the right thing. Plenty more to learn and grow for y’all at Unity, but this is a step in the right direction! 👏

We’ve removed Atlas from our @AssetStore as they violated our terms and conditions. We are actively reviewing all verified solutions providers in the AI category as we remain committed to upholding the quality of our ecosystem.

Devs love to throw in things we don’t own during prototype/pre pro and think “oh we’ll for sure remove it before ship/no one will datamine this”. I once found and removed the full lyrics to smash mouth’s allstar hiding randomly in game data just a month or two before release lol

I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to be Creative Director for the marketing campaign on Legends of Runeterra’s latest expansion. And within this campaign, I got to work on a dream project and Creative Direct my first music track. Check it out at @PlayRuneterra ❤️

Somewhat related to a cool thing I'm working on, here's a little Mario Kart-esque rainbow dash pad #madewithunity using shader graph! #indiedev 🌈🏎 Graph and textures in thread! 🧵

I will not consume much games media, pay attention to indie reddit/twitter, or consider buying any games for at least the next 72 hours (and probably a week or two more). No idea what this person is talking about— absolutely don’t ship your indie game today.

Everyone ready for that new Legend of Zelda game? I bet your PR team told you today would be a bad day to launch a game or do a big announcement. Hot take: it doesn't matter if you launch the same day as a AAA game. Here is why 🧵

If nothing else, your word-of-mouth factor will be dead. Someone picks up your game and wants to tell a friend, but all that friend cares about is Zelda. They aren’t interested in hearing about the sickest avant-garde indie game that is doing something novel right now.

While this dudes logic might hold for other AAA releases like CoD and AC, there is no way it holds for moments like BotW, Elden Ring, and now TotK.

It is actually unbelievable how much #Bard sucks.

So #Bard has trouble reasoning about counting, simple math, and seems to not know what women (sisters) are! Google: Looks good to me, ship it.

A wave of nostalgia just slammed into me as I vividly remembered getting my hands on “Does This Look Infected” for Christmas at the age of 10. Dang.

A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.

I get that this is supposed to be fun/cute, but it’s also spectacularly wrong— right? In what world are Online Multiplayer and Optimization as easy/easier than Stairs, Ladders, Doors, etc. Also all the apples to oranges comparisons for role difficulty are whack.

Game devs: ROUND TWO! Are these more or less accurate? Anything missing?

Space Cab (1997) and Bubble Trouble (1996). I guess we had a Mac and for whatever reason, these were installed on it. They honestly ruled, or at least, to child me they did.
