I am making a narrative game set in a fantasy environment and most systems are in place, so I can almost go back to what matters most: the story!
Have a look :)

Suddenly my game has menus! Liking the art deco elements, and the screen space post processing which is creating this cool night effect for free (at the end of the video).
What do you think? (Still very much WIP of course...)

We researched the adoption of generative AI in the Dutch games industry (as part of the Games Monitor). 6 results I find striking:

1. Adoption in games industry is actually slower than cross-industry average

"Story in the Sky: The Kasten Conspiracy" - working title for my solo narrative game project. Curious to hear your thoughts on that name. Plus: looking forward to @indigo-showcase.bsky.social! I'll be hosting 3 talks, including the @godotengine.org session by @adriaan.games & Franz LaZerte. #gamedev

Found some time to work on my game.

Have to say, the Unity 6 SRP batcher delivers. Makes it much easier to create a dense city.

Are we financing our own downfall?
It sure seems like it.
Most (semi) government agencies in Europe pay Microsoft. Microsoft pays Trump. Trump is trying to cripple Europe.

We should seriously start to consider European alternatives to Windows, Teams and Office.

🎶 This is so cool! The 9th edition of the BUMA Music in Media Awards will feature a new category: GAME MUSIC! Honoured to be part of the jury alongside the Netherlands' most accomplished game composer @jorisdemanmusic.bsky.social, Ubisoft's Leon Winkler, and TikTok's @jannespijkervet.bsky.social.

Great news: we’re hard at work on a brand-new edition of the Dutch Games Monitor! We recently sent out our main survey, if you haven’t already, please take a moment to complete it fully as soon as you can.

This Wednesday, I’m honored to be hosting the celebration of 17 years of @dutchgamegarden.bsky.social —a bittersweet farewell to an organization that has shaped the Dutch games industry.

🤶 Nog op zoek naar een tof kerstcadeau? Mijn high fantasy-roman 'Het verdwenen woud' is overal te koop als paperback (480p), als e-book én als luisterboek! Voor fantasy-liefhebbers van 14 tot 99 jaar. Een spannend verhaal in een fascinerende wereld 😊

Unexplored 2 is still one of the best roguelikes to play. Says @rockpapershotgun.bsky.social . So, it must be true.
