deanimate, do games w Godot Engine hits over 50K euros per month in funding

Are the people who run unity best mates with musk?

Prior_Industry,

Blaze your code

Lemminary,

Not by our own accord. Unity is the seemingly cool, weed-sharing guy with shady friends who wanted to introduce you at a party one day and decided to grope your boob to tell Musk how laid back you were and they both laughed.

clanginator,

This characterization disgusts me but it’s a perfect analogy.

Candybar121,

It’s run by the ex CEO of EA.

I played their last game let’s build a zoo. Very interesting game lol. You can either build a zoo

Tap for spoiler
Or use zoo as a front and build an exotic animal meat factory

TheFANUM, do games w Steam Survey for July 2025 shows Linux approaching 3%
@TheFANUM@lemmy.world avatar

I think Windows is kicking anti cheat out of their kernel (thanks, crowd strike) so it may become a non issue.

What I had heard was that they were looking for other hooks into the operating system that weren’t as deep, not that they were removing the deeper hooks.

    Which is perfect for Linux. If it lives in userspace, it can be made compatible.

    pool_spray_098,

    This is wonderful news!

    I’ve been using Linux full time for around 3 or 4 years. I just bought a Legion Go handheld gaming PC, which comes with Windows.

    I knew before I bought it that I was going to load Linux on it instead, but decided to check out the Windows experience a little out of curiosity first. Holy fucking shit, it was a shitshow. A buggy mess and terrible experience .

    And you hang out in the online communities for devices like this and you will see even totally nontechnical users who have no dog in the fight for a Linux bias are still vastly preferring the Linux experience. This is completely unprecedented.

    Anticheat is the only thing Microsoft has ‘‘going for them’’’ if you can even put it that way. Really starts to feel like Windows is toast.

    BananaIsABerry,

    It’s interesting, anticheat and the xbox game pass are the only things stopping me from changing my main OS over. Not many other reasons to keep it, really.

    Joeffect,

    I gave up game pass, i looked into paying more to be able to stream games from it… but i decided it just was not worth it… at some point the great deal is going to become shitty…

    I don’t regret dropping it and have just used steam…

    I also didn’t play games that had kernel level anti cheat… just never seemed worth it

    BananaIsABerry,

    I can’t say the same, I enjoy some competitive games from time to time and would rather not maintain two OSs just for when I want to play one.

    For now, game pass is a great value. Once they inevitably raise the price and restrict things for pc users, I’ll gladly drop it. I’ll get a lot of value out of it until then though!

    pinball_wizard,

    The Windows team has been looking for ways to remove the deeper hooks ever since the CrowdStrike outage last year.

    REDACTED, do games w Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed

    This made me think. For an European, are there any good alternatives to Visa/Mastercard/Paypal? Seems like we’re dependent on US payment systems

    daniskarma,

    In Spain you can use bizum, which is a system made by Spanish banks. I’ve been reading that it’s supposed to be interoperative with other european systems but I’ve never used that way personally.

    The ECB have been working in the digital euro for ages, which is supposed to allow payments directly processed by the ECB. But it is taking ages…

    Very limited market.
    I am interested to see how it’s going to develop (considering the lagacy of paydirect

    Ghoelian,

    I think Wero is supposed to become the replacement for all of that, though I’m not sure if it’s gonna have similar features. For now it’s only available in a few countries unfortunately.

    Man, Robocraft and Loadout were both great games I enjoyed back in the day, and they both crash and burned a few years later. A real shame.

    Send_me_nude_girls, do gaming w Valve detail their plans to combat Steam Deck OLED scalpers
    @Send_me_nude_girls@feddit.de avatar

    You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Simply add waiting lists and a max limit of one order per person. Sucks for large families but only until the initial hype is gone.

    vivadanang,

    scalpers often recruit straw purchases in those situations. they have ways man, I’m all for Valve finding innovation in fucking those fuckwits up

    Hmm kinda like what they did before. It worked. I knew I was going to get one and the community built a spreadsheet tracking estimates dates.

    sounds like fun

    Manage the day-to-day running of your game studio, from hiring and firing to keeping your investors happy
    Negotiate tough conversations with shareholders, staff, players and publishers to make meaningful choices that will impact the direction of your studio.

    sounds terrible

    123,

    Depends how it’s handled. If its just a gag and you show investors a shiny graph with a line going up (# of toilet paper holders went up this week!), it could work.

    E.g.: in some of the roller coaster tycoon games, you could fire staff, but it wasn’t necessarily a core mechanic.

    Treczoks, do games w Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content

    That’s not a statement. It’s just a lame excuse and attempt to escape the blame for their behavior.

    Quail4789, do gaming w Steam games will now need to fully disclose kernel-level anti-cheat on store pages

    The best thing that’ll come out of this is people will realize Easy and BattleEye are kernel-level on Windows. I know so many people who calls Vanguard a rootkit then go play all the other games.

    dangling_cat, do gaming w Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed

    And twitter chatbot can do nsfw role play. I wonder why he doesn’t get pinged by payment processors.

    monogram, (edited ) do gaming w Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed

    That’s why you should be buying those games from itch / Patreon/ SubscribeStar, banking on a single game store is a loosing game.

    That is why EU has the DMA That is why a market is only healthy if you participate in it

    E.g. when buying coffee (except for Starbucks) I’ll go to any café that sells it, if it looks too corporate or dirty I’ll go somewhere else.

    PonyOfWar,

    The problem with that is that all of these platforms also use the same big payment providers, meaning they’re just as likely to be forced to remove these sorts of games.

    ICastFist,
    @ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

    True. A number of Patreon folk had to go for SubscribeStar or elsewhere because they decided to ban several types of fetish

    l_b_i,
    @l_b_i@pawb.social avatar

    Patreon has similar restrictions. I’m not sure about itch. They all rely mostly on stripe for payments. Stripe gets to set a lot of terms, and switching platforms doesn’t usually change that.

    monogram,

    I’ve noticed that enforcement becomes more of a thing the larger the platform

    AFAIK Steam uses adyen for payments (at least that’s my experience every time Steam wants to verify my credit card).

    belated_frog_pants,

    They will be next as all of those also use the CC companies.

    This looks absolutely delightful. Thanks for sharing!

    TomSelleck, (edited ) do gaming w HP are interested in making a SteamOS handheld as the Windows experience sucks

    Fuck HP. I could see these assholes charging you a fee to download anything or use their device in any meaningful way. They are leaders in the enshittification race.

    algorithmae,

    and then the GPU will catch fire

    TomSelleck,

    Better hope you paid your fire suppression subscription!

    TacoSocks, (edited ) do games w Luanti (formerly Minetest) v5.11 out now with an in-game settings menu and better server browser

    I’ve tried luanti several times and I’m trying to dial in the graphics settings for best performance with the lack of in game settings menu was always a such a pain I’d give up. I’m super excited about his change.
