often unlooked if you are a dev: keeping knowledge, code, assets, your build toolchain, and ideally equipment to rebuild the game if needed teach a man to play a compiled game once and he games for a day. keep your compilers warm and he games for a lifetime. or something

I have a strange question gamedev friends. We've been having talks of game preservation for awhile. What can I do while building my game to make it easier for myself in the future for preservation? Any best practices? I don't even know where to begin

the pokemon poptart situation is crazy

I finally did it. I acquired over 2,000 boxes of Pokemon Pop-Tarts. Cleared out every Target within 50 miles. Now they’re safe and climate controlled. Not opening a single one. This is a 15+ year hold. Cost me $4/box. These could easily be worth thousands each one day.

gamedevs: github's downtime and issues are becoming unacceptable. what are you doing now? right now i'm just pushing to a remote file server rather than github just in case...

@griffinmatta i went a couple years ago and it was… alright. too much anime focus for me imo (as opposed to pure games)

And surprise to Steam owners, the game now has a Mac and Linux version! Linux was well-supported with Proton, but this native update allows OFF to run on more lower end computers. We even got it running 60fps on a 3770k with integrated graphics on 24.04 LTS.

@graysonZ80 in the positive side: indie games are same as it ever was, for better or worse. quality, marketing reach, and uniqueness (in roughly that order) are still the most important factors

@graysonZ80 affordability affordability affordability!! the best index for games: “my barber’s (a normie) opinion” and has been as such for a couple of years: “i’ll get a ps5 when gta6 comes out, tired of CoD because i cant afford it, tired of being sold to, and i heard it sucked anyway”
