Flickering values from Quake are being re-used in Half-Life series even 24 years later...

Oh my, Showdown Effect, my favourite multiplayer game, made by Arrowhead, the creators of Helldivers, is now free:
1. It used to be a premium $20 title with nearly no marketing
2. The online dried out quickly, but they kept selling it
3. It died completely, was taken down from Steam and a decade later someone bought it out and re-released
It's free, but you host your own servers, so you need friends to play with. See you on weekends or something like that.

Beat Saber developers discontinued PSVR support: users on PlayStation 4 and 5 will not have updates or multiplayer. But they will keep selling it, since Sony doesn't allow refunds anyway!

Cool fact: the first science fiction has been written in ancient Syria: it has space travel, aliens, and interplanetary warfare...
Thanks to kind IP laws, you can use it for your games, since it's been written 18 centuries ago 😏

This is exactly how open world games feel like!

The Alters peaked at 15K CCU — an impressive result for a low budget game. 11 bit studios created a unique blend of science fiction.

Dune Awakening is a huge success: 170K CCU and 86% positive reviews on Steam. In just a few days the game has 22000 reviews (multiply by about 30 to estimate sales).

Do you like sports? The creators of Sifu do: Sloclap just released their Rematch for a wide audience, and it's doing well.
The game has 80% positive reviews on Steam, mostly due to server issues. But I'm still excited that someone challenged serious Football games with a more casual approach.

Mixamo, the free animation platform went down today and the funniest part: Adobe support team was unable to help, since they were unaware they own Mixamo.

Oh, and Remedy tried to grow into multiplayer games after Alan Wake II.
Their first game FBC: Firebreak launched with 60% positive reviews from players and media. It gained only a couple of thousands of CCU.
It's a premium $40 title, but it's also available in subscription services.

A dude got into my LinkedIn messages, said he has a potential collaboration, invited me for a call, messed up with time zones, said I'm a goose when I asked to reschedule, and banned me.
God bless, it was a close call 🙏
You know what? Indie games!

Grey Feather Federation (Haibane Renmei) is a good, slow, and melancholic anime, that I highly recommend.

The last half a year was exceptionally hard for me. It's getting better but the amount of effort to simply stay alive is overwhelming.
I hope you're doing better, folks...
