@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euThe Steam Autumn Sale is live!
For players, it’s bargain season. For devs, sales like this can mean a spike in visibility, wishlists, sales, and sometimes the difference between a quiet month and a very good one. It's always been a big win for us.
Good luck & have fun!
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euWhat I miss most in games: printed game maps.
They used to come standard in the box, alongside a fun, printed manual. These days, the only way to get a physical map seems to be buying a deluxe edition or printing one yourself.
Has anyone bought a game recently that still included pne?
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euFascinating! Rumours are starting to spread that, after GTA IV, Rockstar is working on a new L.A. Noire game.
I was actually surprised to learn that Rockstar was involved with the first one (as co-producers and publishers)... which actually makes a lot of sense now that I think of it.
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euNo humans were harmed in the making of this game...
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euI'd like to report a crime!
@mars.wsocial.euNo, but that's because I'm playing on Switch :-) #WGames
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euIs this the most mysterious figure in game history?
Any theories, or perhaps stronger candidates?
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euTo the gamers here #WGames, what's your opinion about the Epic Games Store? Do you use it? Why not?
Should alternative stores to Steam exist?
@mguscius.wsocial.euIf you're #nerd #gamer #gamingbro #oldafgamer on #w give a like and follow #wgames feed @ wsocial.eu/profile/did:... 😅
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euGamedev behind the scenes:
This is what a “simple” water shader looks like. Every connected node on the screen represents a different effect, all layered and working together to create realistic water in our simulator, accounting for every reflection, every ripple, and every subtle detail.

@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euIf you needed proof of the immense cultural impact of games:
Not only is the new GTA a phenomenon online, but Miami is rebranding itself, at least for the duration of the promo campaign, as Vice City.
You’d think this would be to promote the game…
Nope. It’s also to promote the city!
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euOk, another one!
Without looking it up, complete this line:
"I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took ** ***** ** *** ****."
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euWithout looking it up, who can complete this line?
"This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: **** *******"
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euIt's a amazing open system, a portable PC that runs Linux.
Always love to see gaming innovation used in a broader context.
@schdadia.wsocial.euSchade, ist ein geiles Spiel mit dem Nintendo ein bisschen Live Service hätte machen können 🤔
@kevinhaelterman.wsocial.euHonest answers: as a gamer/consumer, do you care if a game development process involved crunch?
Have you stepped away from buying a game, after reveals of devs having to crunch to meet the launch deadlines?
@mguscius.wsocial.euRighteo! I've installed Batocera and the first thing I do... Is creating support service for better steam integration in there 😂😂😂 now we have automatically generated beautiful game cases, all metadata, gameplay videos. Also uninstall from ES triggers uninstall via Steam too! #wgames #worknotplay 😅😅
@papatraube.wsocial.euKurze Erinnerung: Das Ding hat das Potenzial, #Warhammer40k Fans weltweit zu begeistern und wird im schönen #Bremen entwickelt. Ich freu mich drauf.
WAAAGH!
