Allez, pour cette rentrée, je cherche un nouveau taf 👀

Dispo à partir d'octobre, plutôt sur Paris et dans le jeu vidéo, mais je reste ouvert au mode hybride / à distance et à d'autres secteurs !

Si vous avez des pistes ou besoin de plus d'infos, on peut en causer en privé / de visu avec plaisir o/

Hmm, okay, I'm going to share this because they asked nicely, I'm not comfortable with this kind of thing, but okay... I do like cheese, though.
So, who’s @jonshiwa.bsky.social ?

He's the co-founder of Tuesday Quest.
Half his brain is working on game concepts, design and code to bring fun ideas to life! The other half is pure cheese.

His super-power: he’s always early...
His weakness: but he hates to wait!

Well, I'm never proud of what I do, but the team has been asking me to talk more about the game, so here's a short video. I have to admit, watching it run isn't so unpleasant sometimes...

Donc si je résume ce qu'avance ce papier.

Les développeurs : "On avance bien, les indicateurs sont bons. Les retours aussi. Le jeu est bientôt prêt."

L'éditeur qui regrette désormais d'avoir promis une juteuse prime si jamais le jeu atteignait ses objectifs : "mdr nouvelle règle : t'es viré ☝️🤓"
NEW: In a newly unsealed lawsuit, the former leadership of Subnautica 2 developer Unknown Worlds say Krafton sought to sabotage the game after realizing it'd be successful enough to trigger most or all of a $250 million earnout.

A wild story gets even wilder: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

In a newly unsealed complaint, the ousted leadership group accused the South Korean video-game publisher of firing them without cause to seize control of the company

me, buying another game before i’m half way through the last one:
REPORTER: The president is revamping the Rose Garden for a second time, he's spending billions of dollars to overhaul a 747 that will be used for Air Force 1 for possibly a year. Are you concerned about that spending too?

RUSS VOUGHT: We have a lot of priorities. We need to spend in areas.

Loved all their games, especially one not mentioned here: the fantastic Tetrobot and Co.
Our upcoming puzzle game Looking for Fael is developped by @swingswingsub.bsky.social
You might know them for Blocks That Matter (2011) or Seasons After Fall (2016)

Have you already played any of their games?👀

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS

The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...?
