Just finished Ep. 375 of Naruto, Kakashi vs. Obito, which features one of the best fights in *any* media, IMO. Well choreographed and "shot," emotionally resonant, it's my platonic ideal of a fight scene.

It's an *incredibly stupid* bit, but I really enjoy Sasuke returning after 3 years and however many murders and being like "I'll be hokage."
Buddy, you are *so dumb*, Naruto the famed moron is smarter than you.

I agree with this, but also, I have a bunch of finalised assets that look shitty, so it's not like I can tell them apart. That's just how it goes.
you should make placeholder graphics look incredibly shitty!! making a game is a long and complicated process and if you use ai to make placeholders that look finished at a glance you'll probably forget some of it, and then people will scour your whole game and you'll look like a fraud.

Back to my Naruto watch, and it's *such* a shame that the mechanics of Neji dying are so fuckin' stupid, and also presented badly, because the narrative and thematic elements involved are really sweet (if a little blunt).

Alright, time to watch this one and say "hell yeah!" to every game on the list.
The best games of 2025 give a glimpse into a better world — where artists can invite audiences into their memoirs, where AAAs are thematically ambitious and small teams can sculpt epics.
This is also my 100th(!!) proper video on YouTube, a milestone seven years in the making

My mum asked me to do her a favour, and start making a second game, so that she could stop lying when she told relatives that I am "making games."
I'll admit to a certain smug satisfaction as I told her that I've technically released three games this year.

I went back to an older project today to see if I could crack it: hard pixel texture sampling with vertex paint support.
It's 95% working now, supporting ^2 sample counts above 16, diffuse, normal & roughness + height.

I'm rewriting my resume, since the old one wasn't working. This sucks so much.
I just have to remember, I am cool and people like me. I have skills. I am a normal guy.

A few months back I saw a post that floated the idea of software rendering for indies, given the lo-fi nature of a lot of indie game visuals.
I thought it was a fascinating idea for about 2 seconds, before remembering modern rendering resolutions, and dismissing the idea.

Seeing a lot of this while playing Galaxy Princess Zorana, it feels like nearly every day on the world wide web.

It's not about if Horses is good or if you like it, it's about the world we're in where a few companies have control over who gets to make money and which artists get to continue working.
Stores can stock whatever they want, but if you don't understand the broader picture you shouldn't speak.

For some reason I keep reading comment sections about Horses (the game) and it's making me want to scream. When the fuck did everyone in the world decide that nudity is inherently sexual? That puritanism is great? That they should be obsequious to the opaque whims of a store?
It's all so anti-art.

The additional context is that Valve is still killing a beloved games studio, still tried to weasel out of making a press statement, still didn't allow a second review, and still did not communicate with the developer beyond vague references to their terms.
