There are an estimated million game devs in 'Western' gamedev - and it has suffered about 20,000 layoffs.

Gaza has 2 million people and 40,000 were murdered by Israel

Same ratio as our layoffs, but its violent murder. Just so you can imagine the scale & scope of that genocide.

The hardest part is working on this thing for so long and not getting to share it with y'all. I took the first interview for this project 1004 days ago. A thousand days of thinking about our core challenges, crafting a world, helping others fill it with new, cool things. Gone.

In a bizarre studio closure and layoff message to staff, Possibility Space owner Jeff Strain blamed the studio closure on employees leaking information to the press.

Finally I can scratch off “make a skin-themed #CS2 skin” from my bucket list of real dumb ideas. Dedicated to all you Workshop artists just trying to get a skin in the game, may I present: Skin in the Game for the P90 (w/ deluxe sunburn graphics).🧴

Free Palestine.

New York Times calling the Nakba a 'migration' is as accurate as calling WWII a 'impolite land dispute', 9/11 a 'airline routing mishap', or Pearl Harbor a 'harbor fire'.

The Nakba was massacre, forced expulsion, and violent dispossession. It has few equals in modern history.

Over 6,000 developers have been laid of this year. The same year that studios have received unprecedented praise for the quality of the games they’re making. The same year that the industry has maintained its trajectory of reaching 320 billion in revenue vs. 120 billion in 2017.

For anyone still “standing with Israel” or trying to inject false nuance into the Israeli genocide of Palestine, this thread is for you. These are the things you won’t be shown on the western news. Look at them now. It’s not too late to adjust your perspective.

I'm linking to three threads I've done in the last three weeks with resources, historical + modern context, & stories that I believe you should know if you're feeling out of your depth watching the Israeli bombs light up the complete darkness sheltering 2 million people in Gaza.

Just finished the second custom painted skin in my psychedelic AUG/P90 mini-collection for CS2. So many redesigns/weapon switches on this, but I feel like it ended up in the right place!

Some more #CS2 workshop updates! I've added roughness maps (and the occasional pearlescent map) to my recently reworked Aloha collection, and man, it makes a huge difference. Check it out! 🌺

Just finished up my latest #CS2 skin, AUG-mented. It's a total redesign of the AUG from my Mindscape/Psychedelia collection, and my favorite one so far. I've got a P90 in progress which I hope will be even better!
