One of the most famous gaming grandmas Shirley Curry decided to quit streaming career: games are not bringing her joy anymore!

Same feel, Mrs Curry! The only difference is that she's 88 and I'm 33.

Visible confusion by #Steam

Developers: a perfect mouse input!
Gamer with racing wheel: hear me out...

Ubisoft gave up on Assassin's Creed Shadows — the game about Japan will not be shown on the Tokyo Game Show. It may be related to recent trailers where French company confused China and Japan.

Instead, there will be 90 minutes of Deaths Stranding 2 (and I'm not even joking).

⭐ Our daily awesome post about #GodotEngine:

➡️ https://github.com/OverfortGames/SteamNetGodot

SteamNetGodot

In it's core SteamNetGodot is the combination of Facepunch.Steamworks and LiteNetLib. A performant, easy to use C# Steam Networking library for the wonderful Godot engine.

It will be regularly updated since it's currently in use on our game Taverna.

Goodies

➡️ Compressed Steam VOIP
➡️ Smart matchmaking through Steam Lobbies / internal logic
➡️ RPC system
➡️ Very simple C# code
➡️ Bunch of cool networking code as example (replication, resource management, audio, kick, mute, ban...)

➡️ Open Source
➡️ Godot 4.3
➡️ MIT license

Tron Legacy is 100% fake but looks exceptionally believable at the same time. While way more grounded modern Disney movies don't...

Finally: #Ubisoft delayed Assassin's Creed Shadows and openly admitted several interesting points:

— Delaying games on Steam is a bad strategy for commercial results — it's not getting them more money or more players, when you only release them in Ubisoft Connect and Epic Store
— Releasing unpolished games with mostly generic open worlds, like SW Outlaws and Avatar, is a guaranteed failure
— And also they rejected the service based core — the game will focus on a solid full experience and several worthy DLCs.

Nature is healing! 😁

Meta Quest 3s — a cheaper $300 version of Quest 3 with worse lenses and displays. If you remember the blurry peripheral vision in Quest 2, this cheaper one has exactly the same issue.

But for me the biggest doubt is still content: Half-Life Alyx is the best game ever. I've played it in VR and it was an exceptional experience. But there are just no games worth bothering anymore.

What do you think? Will you buy it for $299? #VR #Meta

Oh, and they have fairly stylish AR glasses that you can't buy:

It seems that #OpenAI is facing hard times: they just lost three more leads, including the CTO Mira Murati. Dozens of others left during the last year.

And people are questioning both — how or if will they become profitable and how they will overcome current AI limitations.

From #Unity to #Godot4 by Antti, the solo developer of Road to Vostok:

Tried out Unigine and it's worthy!

— Launches faster than Unreal or Unity, almost instantly on my hardware
— Fairly efficient on RAM and VRAM (not sure about build file size yet)
— Has very impressive tools to set up the environment (realistic sky, sun and moon, several layers of clouds, landscapes with 64-bit accuracy, etc)
— Models import supports instancing, vehicles, and some other features if they were properly set in your 3D editor
— Settings menu is a little odd and not comfortable (opens up in right panel, lacks some features)
— The default GI has temporal artifacts
— Async shaders are super fast but cause materials flickering in some cases
— Free for indies, affordable (royalty free, $1500/y) for businesses.
— Has C# and C++ support, works fast even with C# (but my scale is very small, can't say for bigger projects)

Totally gonna play around some more to figure out if artifacts and flickering can be fixed or lowered up to the point where I'm gonna like it.
