Fun fact: Gabe Newell has a Maine coon cat as a profile picture.

You have to listen to your community!

Not a fan of the channel (as it often lacks depth during the talk), but the research he discovered is indeed interesting:

A new collision solver, working on raw meshes instead of colliders.

It splits everything into chunks, computes intersections in each chuck, and makes volumetric force fields as the output.

This Dude Went to Game Design School So You Don’t Have To

I felt pain when he passed 3D modelling regardless of the shit he created...

According to several sources, Battlefield 6 surpassed 7m copies. The game is still on the first place on Steam almost a week after the release.

It took Battlefield V about 2 months to reach the same number of copies. And the estimated revenue is about $350m (before tax). Even the premium upgrade is making more $$ than the majority of new releases.

I know that South Korea in media is between cheerful K-Pop and Squid Game dystopia, but hear me out:

The Crew 2 just received the hybrid-offline mode! Same as they promised after the scandal with The Crew being delisted.

You have 2 choices:
• Start an entirely new game save purely in offline mode.
• Import your online save to an offline/local save.

• Only one local save is supported, so a new one will re-write the previous one (for example, if you export online one again)

• When launching the game, if your console or PC is connected to the internet, you'll be able to select whether to play online or offline.

• If no internet connection is detected, the game will automatically launch in Offline Mode.

BUT the game still boots up BattleEye for some reason.

Sleep well, my dudes and dudettes! 🪄

Sweet Baby Inc website is down. The controversial consulting team messed up with their SSL.

An interesting story: the guy was working over 2 years non-stop to push his isometric RPG on Steam and then he gave up.

The game will be delisted, but currently on a big sale. And yes, it will remain available in the library even if delisted.

UPD: Apparently, the story was even worse!

- 25 people, they got funding for a few years, quickly assembled the prototype and the investor left with all the $$.

- Everyone is fired, but 5 folks are saying they will continue on Early Access. They still own the rights.

- 2 folks actually continue and send it to Early Access.

- 2 years later the remaining one gives up.
