15 Questions For The Writer

1. Are you named after anyone? Nope; my parents chose my name specifically for its meaning, rather than anything else.

2. When was the last time you cried? Yesterday. I was watching CinemaTherapy's video about Wreck-it Ralph on Youtube, and they showed the Broken Karted scene and OH MAN that scene ruins me emotionally every time, I was just sobbing over here xD;;;

3. Do you have kids? Nerp. I'd kinda like to adopt someday, though.

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot? Only in contexts when it's clear that I'm joking. I don't like to be misunderstood, so I try to only use it when I can be obvious about it!

5. What’s the first thing you notice about people? That's going to be their clothes, probably; not necessarily in great detail, but at least the basics of what kind of shirt or whatever they're wearing. I'm not always great with, e.g., faces - and even less so with maintaining eye contact! - so details of those don't tend to stand out to me right away.

6. What’s your eye colour? I don't even know anymore. Mostly a kind of off-grey, I think? Though there seems to be a tiny splatter of brown in there too; and I'm sure they used to be closer to blue when I was a child. So...?

7. Scary movies or happy endings? I do not do scary movies at all. As a kid I was easily upset and so wouldn't consider even touching them with a ten foot pole, and even now I'm too squeamish for guts and gore xD Happy endings - or at least endings with an aspect of hope to them even if they're not fully happy - are definitely my scene.

8. Any special talents? I am absolutely great at memorising movie scripts. I could recite the entirety of The Lion King, for example, word for word at the drop of a hat, and the same is true of several other movies too if I've watched them at least a handful of times. Toy Story 2 is another good example; and as a kid I had both Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins and Bionicle: Mask of Light - two childhood favourites! - committed to memory as well... though I'm a bit rusty on those two these days, I can probably still recite a fair chunk of either of them. There are even more movies, mostly animated ones, where I can do something like 85% of them for memory but just stumble on certain specific details.

And I have absolutely no idea what to do with this ability. I'd love to find some context in which this was actually USEFUL; but that degree of excellent memory doesn't necessarily apply to other things, it's very specific to movie dialogue, so it's kind of... a very limited usability?

9. Where were you born? Ascot, UK.

11. Have you any pets? Nope. I'd love to have a dog, but I can't really afford it at present... and am not sure I'd be up to taking responsibility for one all by myself, either. In the future once my gf and I are in the same place together long-term, maybe!

Otherwise, I haven't had a pet in the family since my parents took on looking after my grandma's elderly budgie, after she could no longer care for him, when I was really young.

12. What sport do you play/have played? NONE xD Sports have never been for me; I'm not particularly athletic anyway and even watching them has doesn't appeal to me, much less participating!

Okay, not strictly true, although the sentiment still stands! But I recall I did take part in rounders club in my last year of primary school (rounders has some similarities to, and derives from the same roots as, baseball, although is kinda a lower-intensity British version without the signature gloves) but that was just for a little bit of fun. In secondary school we had to play some sports in PE classes, but I avoided the action in those as much as possible. And I've very occasionally played casual badminton with my mum or with friends; but again never competitively, only for fun.

13. How tall are you? 1.73 metres, a.k.a. roughly 5'8".

14. Favourite subject in school? DT Graphic Design. You'd think Art, wouldn't you... but I could never really get into that, I preferred to just draw on my own terms than study different styles or whatever. Graphic Design was all about designing our own stuff, though, and that was the part that really drew me in and was a lot of fun.

Also kinda Maths, not that I especially enjoyed it but I was good at it - which made it satisfying, if not exciting!

15. Dream job? ANIMATOR! In the distant future, that is, as far as it being a job goes: for now I'm not ready to try for it as a career but I am focusing on working on animated projects in my own time. I'm pretty much entirely self-taught, so for now I just want to focus on practicing and getting good at it before I pursue it on a serious level... but that's the eventual dream, at least!

Building Worlds: How Game Engines Are Shaping the Future of Gaming

The global game engines market is witnessing rapid growth, driven by the rising demand for immersive and interactive gaming experiences across various platforms, including mobile devices, consoles, and personal computers. According to the report, the market is projected to grow at a significant compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period from 2022 to 2028.

What is a Game Engine?

A game engine is the foundational software used to design, develop, and create video games. It provides core functionalities, including rendering graphics, detecting collisions, managing physics, and handling animations, allowing developers to build games more efficiently. Game engines also support cross-platform development, enabling creators to launch games on multiple platforms from a single codebase, which is especially beneficial for mobile and console gaming.

Market Dynamics and Growth Drivers

Several factors are contributing to the expansion of the global game engines market:

Increasing Demand for Interactive Content: With the growth of mobile and console gaming, there is a surge in demand for visually rich and interactive games, which rely on advanced game engines to deliver smooth gameplay and realistic graphics.

Rising Popularity of AR and VR: The popularity of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) has created a need for sophisticated game engines that can handle complex 3D graphics and high frame rates. Game engines such as Unity and Unreal are well-suited to AR and VR development, broadening their applications beyond traditional gaming.

Growing Game Development Ecosystem: The game development ecosystem is evolving, with an increasing number of indie developers, studios, and large companies investing in game creation. Game engines enable faster and more cost-effective development, making them attractive to a broad range of developers.

Advancements in Graphics Technology: Continued advancements in graphics technology, such as ray tracing, high-definition textures, and improved processing power, are pushing game engines to innovate further to support the creation of realistic and immersive worlds.

Regional Analysis

North America: North America is a key market for game engines, driven by a high concentration of game developers and strong consumer demand for advanced gaming. The region’s well-established tech industry and gaming culture contribute to the adoption of cutting-edge game engines.

Europe: Europe is another major market for game engines, with countries like the UK, Germany, and France being home to a thriving game development scene. The adoption of AR, VR, and mobile gaming in the region supports growth in this market.

Asia-Pacific: Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth, with markets like China, Japan, and South Korea playing a significant role. The popularity of mobile gaming in these countries, combined with investments in gaming infrastructure and technology, is driving the adoption of game engines in the region.

Latin America, Middle East & Africa: Emerging gaming markets in Latin America and the Middle East are also adopting game engines as the gaming industry in these regions grows. The demand for mobile and console games is increasing, and developers are looking for versatile engines to support cross-platform releases.

Competitive Landscape

The game engines market is highly competitive, with several established players leading the industry. Key companies include:

Unity Technologies: Unity is one of the most widely used game engines, known for its versatility in 2D, 3D, AR, and VR game development. Unity’s ease of use, extensive asset store, and strong developer community make it popular among both indie and professional developers.

Epic Games (Unreal Engine): Unreal Engine is renowned for its high-fidelity graphics and is used widely for AAA games and complex simulations. Epic Games’ ongoing advancements in rendering and visual effects keep Unreal a top choice for demanding projects.

Crytek (CryEngine): CryEngine offers high-end rendering capabilities and is known for creating visually stunning games. While it has a smaller user base than Unity or Unreal, it remains popular for graphically intense projects.

Amazon Web Services (Lumberyard): Lumberyard is a free cross-platform game engine developed by Amazon. It integrates well with AWS cloud services, making it suitable for online multiplayer games and games that rely on cloud-based infrastructure.

Godot Engine: As an open-source engine, Godot is gaining popularity among indie developers due to its cost-effectiveness and active community. It supports both 2D and 3D development, making it flexible for various game styles.

Report Overview : https://www.infiniumglobalresearch.com/reports/global-game-engines-market

Challenges and Opportunities

While the game engines market shows strong potential, it also faces challenges. For instance, licensing costs and royalties for high-end engines can be restrictive for small developers. Additionally, as new engines and updates are released, developers must continuously learn and adapt to new tools, which requires time and resources.

However, significant opportunities exist in the market as well. The rising adoption of cloud gaming is opening up new possibilities for game engines to integrate cloud functionalities, which could enhance gaming experiences. Further, as non-gaming industries, such as architecture, film, and education, increasingly use game engines for simulations and visualizations, the market scope is broadening beyond traditional gaming applications.

Conclusion

The game engines market is poised for substantial growth as demand for high-quality, immersive gaming continues to rise across devices and platforms. With advancements in AR, VR, and cloud gaming, game engines are becoming essential tools for developers seeking to create engaging content across industries. As a result, the market is expected to expand significantly over the forecast period, driven by technological advancements and a growing user base in regions worldwide.

I thought this one would be just another developer of mobile game that use The Sims 4 contents in its (fake) ads to fraud users by making people belive its game, when it has a completely different gameplay.

Unfortunately, Room Makover by FlyBird Casual Games is much more than this.

Room Makover has plenty of false ads. This time I actually tried the game, because the pictures and videos on Google Play were cute and I decided to give it a try.

I was so naive. Happens that the whole page on Google Play is full of fake contents.

It's just one of those mobile games in which you have to remove and match nails. Every time to finisce a leven, you will rewarded with bills that you can use to unlock part of a building under "makeover". You have just three option for every part of the building or the room to choose.

There is nothing creative. Not actual building or cluttering rooms or decoring.

As, always, since I'm a curious little bitch, I decided to dig further into this FlyBird Casual Game and... Oh. God. Their site looks even less legit than LUCKY FORTUNE GAMES' one!

It is just a void page. There is nothing here. NOTHING. The only two working section are the privacy and conditions of use, in which they try to convince you that they didn't have any liability for damages or fraud committed.

The privacy one is curious, because mentions this Commissioner's Office in UK and a long list of partners. Both for ads and for data collection, which is hugely uncommon for this kind of games.

Sooooo... In this magical list of apps, I noticed a few tech nightmares, which I will explain briefly here:

Aarki is an AI company that builds advertising solutions to drive mobile revenue growth. Traslated from bullshit: they use AI to generate fake ads and sells it to shady corps.

Blind Ferret is the big deal here! Not only gave you digital marketing solutions, data collection and analytics, but also pays influencers and product placement on social media to promote the game and, hear me out, CREATE fake ads too! It's literally written in their site: "Our Creative Services don’t just make things look pretty. Our team uses data to guide us! How do we make brands shine? By turning the arts into a numbers game with top-performing creative content." This include: Graphic Design, Illustration, 2D Animation, Video Editing and Composition, Copywriting and conceptualizing.

InMobi is a big Corp that does native advertising, which means promoted contents, collabs with influencers, etc.

Ironsource. This one is a fucking cancer. IronSource Ltd. is an Israeli software company that focuses on developing technologies for app monetization and distribution, with its core products focused on the app economy. That would sound harmless, but Samsung use it in its budget and midrange smartphone to install multiple third-party apps during the set-up process. This platform slips bloatware on the pretext of recommended apps, leading to apps clutter and reduction in on-board storage space. The only purpose it exists on Samsung phones is to download games without your consent with no way to remove it (no app installed).

Mintegral is another fucking tech nightmare. Not only poses serious threats to your privacy and datas, but also uses malicious codes to spy your activity and when you seem intentioned to install a mobile app, Mintegral’s software would then fire off fake clicks on non-existent ads to claim credit for the install and essentially collect a bounty from app publishers who pay ad networks to promote their apps.

Mistplay is one of those "play to earn bucks" that I find very very dangerous. Because YOUR data are their revenue.

Tapjoy does monetization of ads and also surveys, that force users to download one from a long list of games, download it and playing for hours or since it is gained some in-game prize. This surveys are rewarded with credits and user can spend on the mobile game they actually want to play. Tapjoy has a huge market among IMVU users, who need credits to buy piece of clothing and accessories for their avi.

The other apps do mobile app marketing, using data collection that allow shady corps to target more gullable and naive people to scam. Plus they do also monetization surveys to get money and at the same time forcefully grow the engagement of this shady corps.

Obviously, there is no user support mail listed in their Google Play page, but at least this has a contact mail listed on their website: flybirdgames2022@gmail.com

As always, stay safe and please tell me if you know more about everything above or know the person who create this build first.

Help people to stay safe.

Thank you.

<<< previous Coloring app use design of The Sims 4 build creating without the consent of the creators and other mobile developers steal TS4 speed build contents and claim it's the actual gameplay of their mobile game.

Anthony's Stupid Daily Blog (898): Tue 3rd Sep 2024

I watched Quiet On Set, the expose documentary about life at Nickelodeon during Dan Schneider’s tenure as their top programme creator. It’s really sad knowing this shit went down given that so many of my favourite shows came from Schneider such as the Amanda Show, Drake & Josh and Kenan & Kel (though I discovered that Schneider wasn’t as involved with Kenan and Kel as he was with all his other shows which really surprised me). The fact that Schneider refuted literally zero of the allegations in his response video in particular the fact that he continued to employ a convicted paedophile despite knowing all about his criminal history with children tells me Schneider feels no remorse. If he was really sorry he would have release a video where every allegation made against him in the documentary is listed and he could either debunk or apologise for them but I think it’s pretty safe to say that this isn’t going to happen. Schneider obviously has a very immature sense of humour and while there’s nothing wrong with that when it comes to trying to sneak your juvenile sex jokes into to shows staring and being marketed at children that’s when things start to get a little creepy. Looking back now at some of the questionable stuff Schneider put in his shows (such as having Amanda Bynes blow on a penis shaped spitball machine or having Ariana Granda squeeze a potato to try to get juice out of it) it’s easy to ask why nobody stepped in and asked Schneider what he was thinking but Schneider was so powerful and generated so much money for Nickelodeon I can only assume they were willing to turn a blind eye. I seem to remember when this documentary was announced there was a furore over Drake Bell being announced as an interviewee due to his criminal history of endangering children and possibly (almost definitely) doing worse to them. I really hope that this doesn’t result in some sort of revival for Bell because although what happened to him when he was a kid was tragic that certainly doesn’t excuse his behaviour as an adult. 

I spent the rest of the day trying to come up with new designs for tattoos that would incorporate two or more of the things I like into one design. While reading the graphic novel Alice In Sunderland I discovered that back in the days of vaudeville, Sunderland audiences were considered to be the roughest and rowdiest in the whole country to the point that theatres all over the UK had posters up backstage advising the actors to “BEWARE OF SUNDERLAND”. When I read this I decided immediately that I wanted to get this tattooed on me as an homage to my hometown but I could never settle on a font. I tried writing it in the fonts of the various films and TV shows I like and when I tried writing it in the Dragon Ball font I realised I was on to a winner. However lately I’ve been re-watching Bojack Horseman and after seeing the episode where Bojack steals the big D from the Hollywood sign I was inspired to incorporate this into the design to so now the design has a little doodle of a helicopter carrying the D at the end of SUNDERLAND away. The result, I think you’ll agree is nothing short of fucking phenomenal. 

Also side note: In the world of Bojack Horseman 9/11 still happened so presumably there were some anthropomorphic animals in the planes and in the towers which is a fucking surreal mental image

Research on Artsits

Week 1:

Army Of Trolls:

Armt of trolls is the portfolio of london born, videogame obsessed artist Gary J Lucken. Working from his Studio in Poole, Dorset, UK, surrounded by Japanese toys and piles of old 2D videogames.

There is a lot going on in their work and it is very crowded they use shadows and gradient to make the photo look 3D and they don't use black outlines

They also use an isometric view point for their work.

Octavi Navarro / Pixels huh:

They develop approachable, narrative video games crafted with tons of love

Octavi Navarro is a pixel artist and developer who worked on games like Thimbleweed Park and Photographs.

Susanna Granell takes care of the studio's business side, social media, and writing. She loves coffee.

Their most distinctive feature is our unique visual style, combined with original and risky narrative stories that resonate with players.

Octavi uses layering, shadows and gradient to give a perspective of looking underneath the ground or a race track. They also use no black outlines on their work

Derek Yu-Spelunky:

Yu has designed and co-designed several award-winning games, most famously Spelunky, Aquaria, and Eternal Daughter.He is also notable as a blogger and custodian of the influential TIGSource blog/community about independent video games.

Speluncky is a 2008 2D platform game The player has to explore and dodge traps as they progress.

Most of these games are from the 90s and early 2000s. 3d graphics were still crude and before indie game developers truly picked up the mantle.

Derek uses some black outlines however not everything is outlined in black and instead is a gradient of what the colour of the object is

Batman (Famicom/NES). Sunsoft, 1990.

Johan Vinet:

They worked on game Animations for Adventure time and Flinthook.

They learned pixel art on an Atari 1040STF with 16 colors.

Castaway is a family friendly, short and charming action-adventure game.

"Embark on an action-packed adventure in Castaway, diving players into a pixelated and retro universe. Assume the role of Martin, whose spaceship crash-landed on an uncharted island where his faithful pet was taken by hostile creatures. Retrieve your weapons and venture out to rescue your kidnapped companion in this endearing and unexpectedly dynamic world. Beat the 3 bosses in the concise and delightful "Story Mode" to unlock the thrilling and addictive "Survivor Mode." Ascend a 50-floor tower, with each level presenting increasingly challenging trials!"

Johan uses black outlines on all their objects and characters, they use power ups and their game cast away is like an escape and fight game.

Week 2:

Michael Myers:

They use low resolution canvases to construct his characters and objects and shows that they are still recognizable without a black outline.

He also makes it seem easy to create something on 8 bit when he still is able to make it look great.

Don Bluth:

Don uses a sketch to begin with and then once he is happy with his design he then goes over it in thicker pencil. He also uses a lot of curves and not a lot of straight lines.

don uses lines to begin working on his character to make sure it is aligned.

Mary Blair:

Mary uses plain colours and adds to them as she creates her character. she worked on many films like peter pan and cinderella and would create the shape and colour design for them.

Mary created children's books with her art work. she used a lot of different colours and used them to make her characters and the area around them more vibrant and stand out.

Mary even created the colour scheme for the new attraction "its a small world" .

Super Meat Boy:

I like the use of the caves in the hell stage and the design of all the levels, the designers for this game used black outlines for their characters and their characters were very similar and didn't contain too much detail.

most of their characters would be solid block colours and still look very good, as the levels where built around the characters design, the levels worked well.

Castle Crashers:

The game designers designed the characters to look like knights to fit the theme of knights fighting enemies. I like the character design as its not too detailed but it used more than one main colour.

This game uses a black outline for their characters as well as using a coloured outline after the black outline.

Minit:

The game uses only two colours for the background and all the characters all the characters use a pallet of light grey and white to give them definition. I like how the character designers use just white and black as it shows a good game can be created without using loads of different colours

The game also uses in game dialogue to show the story of the game to the player.
