Steam Winter Sale has begun, good luck with accessing the store when other 40m people are doing the same! #Steam@GameDEV
Steam should buy more servers 😬
Their Servers Official Stats: https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/ — they peaked at 38.9 Tbps.

Whoa, that was an interesting year, no doubt! Show your Steam Replay in the comments! #Steam@GameDEV
Only 5% in my case — all of them were demo projects and "Find 100 cats in". This year I bought 0 new AAA games.

Blender founder complained that certain Google questions are polluted with AI hallucinations.
Google silently replaced the reply when the topic went viral.

Think twice before launching a multiplayer game. There's a very limited market for them. Same with Helldivers II (thanks to PlayStation locking 180+ regions), same with Deadlock from Valve.

The noscript is misleading: the video is about Teamwork and Game Design — how to fit into the team, how to collaborate, how ideas can change over time with required iterations...

Valhalla is ridiculously beautiful for a game of its size. The lighting is leaking from time to time, but who cares if it can be played on a handheld and looks like this 99% of the time!

IDK about you, folks, but thanks to @discomode I'm playing Infinity Nikki — a gacha game where your powers are in your dresses. And yes, I'm a pink-hair waifu.
And I like it...
UPD: What the heck, the game is actually a FIFTH iteration of a huge dressing franchise, popular in Asia (and called Nikki Up2U).

Radiance Cascades Global Illumination (the one that will probably be a part of the upcoming Godot solution, mixed with their Voxel-based HDDAGI).
The initial solution of Radiance Cascades for 3D lighting was created by Path of Exiles 2 developers. And by Alexander Sannikov, who posted his experiments for the last couple of years.
But this one runs even on a phone. And it's beyond screen space!
