MONKEY MAN (2024)

[qwertyprophecy]

You are the Dark Queen—the most powerful being of your entire universe. Your lair is breached by an aspiring hero—a pitiful thing, easily crushed.

Except they keep coming back.

PLAY ON ITCH.IO

I think game studios should just release their character creators online. For the times when I don’t wanna play the whole game, just the lil dress up part

five hundred and thirty people laid off from riot. We aren't even one month into 2024.

there is no security in the work within game development. My dad would tell me 'just work hard, be essential and earn your place' but that isn't how it is anymore. You could be the best, most amazing artist, as so many of my friends who were laid off were, and it doesn't matter. They will get rid of you just as easily. I don't even know what to feel anymore, but as someone who had been laid off in the past, I cannot convey how devastating it is to have your life uprooted just like that.

Just this week in games:

- EA laid off 700 workers

- Sony laid of 900 workers

- Rockstar announces in-person work mandates for all employees (a 'soft layoff' that will force some staff to quit, which likely means that actual layoffs are forthcoming)

In 2023 6,000 games workers were laid off. Now in 2024 over 10,000 workers have been laid off, and there's still 10 months to go.

Not to be hyperbolic, but I think this is perhaps the worst year for video games ever if we're measuring by number of layoffs.

Inspired by the Persian myth of Huma and royal stars, a cursed Magi and a conniving young girl race against time to thwart fate 🪶🦁

I received a TON of very sweet messages in my inbox about how much it mattered to people to see Persian/Iranian representation, especially with the huge lack thereof in media.

When I complained about the lack of Persian stories and characters in media to my classmates, friends and professors, many told me the same thing. Why don't you make the representation?

So here I am, trying that out! I wanted to use this story as a way to reconnect with my culture and learn more about its history and stories.

also it's gay
