Trigger time, Cross space.
A panel titled "Preservation is Profit: How Retro Games Unlock Long-Term Revenue."

Over the years the themes shift a bit when then prospective technology catches up to our ever-widening technological present, but they also get more profound with age. That's really special and it's why GitS:SAC is my favorite sci-fi series.
I'm sure cyberbrain sclerosis will be prescient in time.
Panelists on stage at GDC
"Never underestimate expressive choices... The choices that people think don't matter often matter the most."
"Choices matter if they matter in the moment you make them."
'It's Not In The Writer's Manual' Q&A
I'm kinda fucking shocked that this flew under the radar of sub 500 reviews but god Labyrinth of Galleria rules. A wild ass tale of love and heartbreak across time and dimensions, and also one of the most mechanically *cranked* games NiS has produced.

Can confirm in my own experience and AuDHD. Sometimes it feels tied to anxiety and stress? There's a lot of say 'selection ease' when you are in the middle of something and can just default back to it versus new approach. Extends to social gatherings as well. I love being there, I just hate going?
Every time it comes up I just gotta remind people that it's extremely expensive to license filming in Shibuya, which the team making this game couldn't afford, so they filmed this game by stealing shots and running from the cops.
Aw, was hoping it was Brandish this time.

Thanks to everyone who came to #DayOfTheDevs this year! Both the developers and the players! Thanks to all the hard working folks who make the show run so well! And thanks to all our generous sponsors! I had a great time and met so many awesome people! See you next year! ๐๐ฎโค๏ธ
new blog post about: makin' it easier to integrate elaborate (or not) contextual character animation stuff into gameplay in @sleightofhand.game. Like all the best shit, this is not so much technically impressive as workflowily excellent.

My GDC 2017 Narrative Design talk on creating resonant characters is now up on YouTube! I go over some lessons learned (and mistakes made) attempting to build characters that players would really be able to attach to emotionally. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyQf...

Zeliard (1987) is an action RPG by Game Arts that debuted on the PC-88 in Japan. An ancient demon defeated thousands of years ago threatens to return, a princess is turned to stone, and scattered gems of legend must be gathered to save the land! (a jumping and slashing thread)
I'm glad someone is saying it. Adaptation can be more than simply moving the experience 1:1 between mediums. Sometimes it can, and should, necessitate a greater dive into the core mechanics and translating it across experiences through a wide alteration of ancillary systems.

Each one a grosser color, concerning amount of stretch or unappealing toppings before it. Pizza has become redefined as a totally new metastructure, a 4th state of matter.
Great job on this
Oh! And CRISPR! Which the right has taken the opposite on to their ideological cause in anti vaccine and particularly anti MRNI vaccine efforts. How can you see vaccines now as anything other than medical technology of the left?
I am CONSTANTLY gushing to family and friends about the green technology boon with the caveat is the one part of tech news I still get legitimately excited for. For some reason if the profits don't go to some maladjusted weirdo with questionable reproductive beliefs it isn't tech in 2026
