Pixel version of Fala, possibly for use in a visual-novel-esque game (although leaning much more heavily in the Professor Layton/3 in Three direction). Fala isn't the one solving puzzles in the game, but something here definitely has her stumped.

@ktemkin We shipped StarTopia in EFIGS, which was absolute murder because ti's full of stupid puns.

Almost immediately we got requests for a different language setting for the voice vs the subtitles. People really wanted the voiceover to be in English, but the subs to be in their native language to explain the jokes they missed. Very easy to fix in a patch, a great idea, but it's not something we thought of ahead of time!

it’d be amazing if games had the ability to e.g. toggle text-box languages at the push of a button, or while a button is held down

it would be _so good_ for the kind of immersion learning where you play a game in a language you want to improve in; you could just hold a trigger button for a second to demystify a piece of vernacular or learn a new piece of vocab

Of all those amazing writers still out on strike #StarTrek geeks are definitely my favorite. 🖖

I’m reading “I Am a Cat” by Natsume Soseki, which was written in the early 1900s. There are references to stops on the Yamanote line and the tram throughout the book.

Looking it up, they’ve added stops since then, which is pretty much the opposite of North America, where train-based transit has mostly been demolished.

a character i designed and drew really quickly for an rp, but i really like how it turned out

drew a cute @typhlosion :3c

Wherever you land on the ideological spectrum, you've got to see that the wheels are coming off the market here. If huge oligopolies can literally set their own prices based on numbers that they make up *after the purchase*, and huge oligopsonies can set their compensation based on numbers that they made up *after the work is done*, that's not a market any more. I think it's a fiefdom? This is not even hypercapitalism, it's neofeudalism.

The backlash to Unity's new pricing model is very closely related to the WGA/SAG strikes. One of the main points of contention in the strike is that streaming platforms get to do their own reporting on stream counts, with no obligation to disclose them. Then they make compensation decisions based on those numbers. Unity is just trying to get a piece of the "we make up a number, then we send you a bill for that number" pie.
