„Trotz des Einsatzes von zweistelligen Milliardensummen wurden in gerade einmal 5 Prozent der untersuchten Fälle nennenswerte Einnahmen oder Ersparnisse erzielt. Der überwältigende Rest der Firmen scheiterte mit seinen Projekten dagegen und stellte diese teils sogar ganz ein.“

But the note kept me thinking …
Mayberry wasn’t a translation issue. Maybe the sacrifice of the oni was that it shits alone. I don’t know how people did their poopin‘ in feudal Japan 🤷

Im currently playing @suckerpunchprod.bsky.social‘s #GhostOfYotei (and you should too, cauz it’s great!) and today I found a hilarious glitch in the German translation 🤣

„Living as a demon
Means making sacrifices
I shit alone“

I’m pretty sure that it should read „I die alone“ 😏

Ffs those tropes of characters being stupid and always going into dark cellars / rooms / hallways at night and without proper light starts to annoy me 🙄

When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.

Well yes - but that doesn’t make the exploit any less severe imho 😬.

But with Steam already mitigating the issue, the risk is definitely manageable.

I haven’t had the pleasure to work with steam workshop, but I assumed that there would be possibilities to use custom CLAs?

Papa Pepe @alexpieper.bsky.social · Oct 4

High risk of it happening? Or once it trigger for it not being dangerous?

The Ria for it happening I can’t really evaluate, but if it is exploitable then it seems pretty serious to me . But maybe I’m missing something?

Compared to how serious this CVE is, I was totally baffled on how silence my gamedev community was. Maybe I’m already too disconnected? Or everybody is just freaking out and patching the shit out of their games 🫠

It's official now. After more than 14 years today was my last day at @studiofizbin.bsky.social . I don't actually know what's gonna happen to the company i co-founded back then.

For now i'm gonna take a small rest to re-charge my batteries.

For those about to make some games, I salute you 🫡

I’m watching the documentary right now and can’t wait to hear the thief’s perspective (Sam F) on this. Man the thought process behind this is astonishing.
The whole „fake it till you make it“ approach is something I’ll never understand.

But, the movie was originally created by two German film students and they notice this theft because they submitted on their own to festivals and got disqualified by a festival because it’s already online although they took it offline. The original title is „Butty“

So the story is: Samuel Felinton, an American film student sees an animated short film on YouTube, rips it, makes some cuts and exchanges the credits for his own and submits it to festivals and stuff. And even wins prizes 🤯
He releases it with a new title „T-130“.
