Rob’s BOTD is #Gannets - to be interpreted as you see it! Never seen a real gannet but the #Starlings certainly eat like them, emptying the feeders in minutes especially with their juveniles demanding food!

I imagine the turkeys glaring balefully as they fly away backwards
Today's Guernsey: Turkeys now fly away as a flock when you get near!
I fixed it so they all fly away the right way, but I thought this gif was funny.

Finally picked a copy of Giantess Playground over on Epic, and I like playing it as "I'm a big lady kaiju" haha!
So I can say that I'm happy for the audience that finds this kinda stuff more titillating, but I'm content noodling around the environment and going smash-stomp-smash.

LucasArts had so many internal tools, but to make levels their FPS games "Dark Forces" and "Outlaws" they just used the good old AutoCAD. Here are shots of "Outlaws" maps being worked on in AutoCAD R13 for Windows:

Really curious. Physically disabled people: What are common pitfalls video games fall into when it comes to flawed accessibility, or the lack thereof?
I have a few concepts in my head but things slip between the cracks.
