My biggest pet peeve is when someone gives advice about audio, AND IT'S WRONG ahh

With a degree in Post Production (editing) and 10 years working in the industry for tv, my advice is...

Audio Mixer OBS:
Voice: -5db (THE RED ZONE IS GOOD, never get to 0)
Game: between -20db & -15db (Yellow)
Music: between -45db & -35db (Low Green)

People saying never to put audio in the red zone are flat out wrong. You want to avoid distortion, which is when it peaks at 0 and above, but your voice should be louder than the game.

Hope this helps!

One of the worst parts of game dev is when you can't show people the work you've done. Work you were proud of. Years of effort you put in. It all just goes poof, out of your control. Eman opened up about this in such a real way.

Yep, we’re still deep in the game — exploring, building, and ensuring the sands move with purpose. 🗡️⏳

This game is being crafted by a team that truly cares, and they're pouring their hearts (and a lot of coffee) into every step.

Thank you for sticking with us. 💖

With my friends who get together every year for a New Year's party.
I served everyone my original special recipe of TAKOYAKI.
And we stayed at the Bokeh Game Studio until 4 in the morning.
Everyone had endless stories to tell, and tonight was just a gathering of game lovers (Kamiya-san traveled 500km just to have this interesting conversation with us).
Hopefully we can get together again soon!

By the way, whose apron am I wearing…?

I also see there's a Pico Park 2, so I'll say here and now that we'll definitely 1-shot it since we're super experts. mmmHMMMMM
