5% of Steam games capture 92% of all sales. Only 1 in 5 developers ever ship a second game. This isn't bad luck — it's power law economics. Same math behind VC, wealth, and city sizes. Here's what the data says about beating it 🧵

Pirates vs sea serpents. Jetpacks vs lasers. Zombies vs you. Rockets, zigzags, and color rings.

Fable is back and I built this! 🔥
Started Halo and Horns with Claude Fable 5, fumbled through the ban with Opus 4.8 + GPT-5.5, then finished strong once Fable returned. 141K+ lines of Roblox Lua, open source, live right now.
Pet battles, epic summons, wild exploration, pure chaos in a vibrant low-poly world.

2. Make a GTA 6 trailer in 1 hour
xitter.cf/Veltrxai/status/207246…
Anthropic switched Fable 5 back on 24 hours ago, and it took me 1 hour to prototype a GTA 6 trailer.
Not a mockup or a storyboard a rendered trailer with camera cuts, Vice City neon, and a chase over the causeway at dusk.
The run looked like this:
Minute 0 — dropped 6 reference frames and the leaked trailer script into Fable 5
Minute 9 — it wrote a full shot list of 22 shots timed to 0.1 seconds
Minute 24 — generated every scene, with 19 of 22 usable on the first pass
Minute 41 — cut the sequence itself, matching pacing to the trailer's audio waveform
Minute 58 — export, 1080p, 91 seconds
I typed 4 prompts total while Fable ran the other 200 steps on its own planning, generating, reviewing its own frames and regenerating the bad ones.
The old pipeline for this was a VFX team, 3 weeks and $15,000 minimum, when 1 fake trailer shot from an Upwork freelancer already costs $2,000. Rockstar spent 12 years and a reported $2B making the real thing with 6,000 people.
My version doesn't compete with theirs but the gap between a studio and 1 guy with a laptop just shrank to 60 minutes and 4 prompts.

I'm still loving this animation style. It feels perfect for adventure stories, but it also shines when telling something more emotional and poetic.

If you’re interested in 2D animation workflows in Defold, keep an eye on SpriteLoop 👀
There's a Defold native extension for .spla animation playback, with editor integration, a dedicated component, Lua helpers, and examples 🧡💙
The latest development updates are exploring Smart Limbs, which looks like a very promising direction for sprite-based character animation.

We’ve prepared a new example showing how to create billboarding in your games! 🌲
It includes two modes:
- always face the camera - like the smoke ☁️
- lock rotation to a vertical axis - trees and rocks🌲🪨
We combined here 3D models by @KayLousberg and 2D screenshots of 3D models by @KenneyNL for trees and rocks!
Since Defold 1.12.3, custom vertex formats and improved local-space vertices have made proper billboarding much easier in Defold.
