A 2-day hackathon starts 19th July, where game devs from across the country can come together to build games with the WTF x IGDC Game Jam. The learnings with game jams are of great value by being a part of it, but the rewards with this one are also worthy lu.ma/pq0vla0p

Importance of embodiment over immersion in VR games. The design article makes valid points. Understanding and implementing real human interactions with our environment is the key to embodiment. roadtovr.com/synapse-embodi…

Sundays at Marine Drive are always packed, rains or shine. Great to see the Mumbai Police preventing people from climbing the ledge, especially as they prepare for high tide to hit the shore. #MumbaiRains

We've announced our new strategy for bringing Epic's games to mobile stores: not only the soon-to-launch Epic Games Store for mobile, but also other independent mobile stores that give all developers a fair deal, including AltStore.io. epicgames.com/site/en-US/new…

Wrapping up an incredible games fellowship with Epic Games. It’s been intense, but so rewarding. Gained new skills, learned a ton, and connected with an amazing community of game creators. Time for some well-earned sleep now.

Updates from the Unreal Fest should be of interest to any game dev using UE. Better terms for developers with the 'Launch Everywhere with Epic' program. Also the launch of UE 5.5 preview with a ton of new features and better rendering capability. unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/cat…

To learn anything new, having the right resources and a community of supportive people makes all the difference. Mentorship is key for staying on track & pushing you toward your goals. Most importantly, to surround yourself with those who believe in you! linkedin.com/posts/mariamdh…

Saw a lovely movie, not many are talking about- Binny and Family is about three generations of an Indian family living in UK/India and their struggles with modern day living & gaps in undestanding each other. The maker has really understood this well to create it with perfection.

Stats on women in games. Women in Games International (WIGI) 22% game devs globally are women. 46% of gamers are women 4% of game companies are founded or lead by women Pay gap - women get 20% less than their male counterparts. I've been in the industry for long. Not sure how much has changed.

The VR visibility crisis is real. Cost, weight, comfort, and portability are some of the reasons holding it from going mainstream, which in turn is limiting investment. androidcentral.com/gaming/virtual…
