Marty Stratton, @idSoftware Studio Director, lied about @DOOM Eternal's OST events in a Reddit post that used disinformation to blame me entirely for its failure

Later, he offered me a six-figure sum to never speak about it

The truth is more important.

Since the bird site is imploding, if anyone has a link to other #gamedev communities it'd be nice to follow some of you smarties and continue listening to your stories.

When we were first developing @MARVELSNAP - we wondered if we could do away with a card game staple: The Mulligan. Obviously we did, but early testers hated it. We changed their perception with a single change to 1 card. 🧵

@ChevyRay Fwiw I've been hoping you'd share some things. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

Thinking of the backend devs at Blizz today on launch day. Today is definitely a day.

Even now fractured (but large) communities like reddit take the role of meaningful query results that once belonged to the internet at large.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

I feel like full scale search engines and the abuse of SEO are going to change dramatically in the next 20-30 years. You can already see how useless major search engines are at querying things that used to be tremendously good. Such as computer support.

@owletbabycare Doing the classy "release a new app because our old one has bad reviews" while keeping the same buggy crap they've always had.

@ChevyRay Been investigating rhai. I'm new to embedded scripting though, this would be my first go.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

This thread is amazing

Never getting off this app, etc etc.

🔥 New Post: Announcing InAppBrowser - see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser

👀 TikTok, when opening any website in their app, injects tracking code that can monitor all keystrokes, including passwords, and all taps.

I've spent my entire adult life working on multiplayer games and I simply cannot stand playing games with random people.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

In #unity3d if you download textures from the web, you can't control their color space if you use DownloadHandlerTexture. Since I'm using them directly in a compute shader, I had to convert it there after sampling!

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

Why isn't my compute shader updating even with obvious breaking changes? Oh, because Unity suddenly decided it would stop updating it until I compiled a script. Fun. When Debug.Log ("WTF"); makes things work you know it's time for bed.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

Projects with examples for their published version that only work on their unpublished git version need to take a step back to reality.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

Has anyone used ue5 yet? Curious about the new ecs / dod things. Might be the final step to give it a real shot with a project.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

Someone make my voicemail auto cleanup based on voice recognition. Should be trivial to detect "warranty" and auto delete this garbage.

[Will Corwin @wcorwin]

The fact that basic sharing of files over a private network is still more or less an unsolved problem on Windows is a travesty. Nor can I simply plug a usb-c cable from one computer to another. Mind boggling.
