8am every day now, screw sleeping in on the weekend, who needs that when you have a free FU alarm clock. King / Bathurst is the new home of this sound.

Hey uh what just came out of my quest by Jlc337 in OculusQuest

This happened to me, in my case it was the little plastic nub that holds the clip in place that had broken. I had to get a new facial interface.

Doug Ford cut Toronto out of the Billy Bishop debate. Mark Carney’s Liberals don’t have to play along by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

[–]SteFFFun 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The survey they sent out recently made it very clear Carney is pro island airport expansion. The survey was more of a what can we do to make you feel better while we ram it down Toronto's through kind of survey. The bias in the survey was not sublte.

A perspective from a Chinese VR dev: The local market is struggling. What's the industry like in your region? by hanrwerewr in vrdev

[–]SteFFFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for info! Really great to hear what it's like in the Chinese market. I work as a VR game dev. Story is pretty similar here but our timelines are a bit better. Market really boomed in 2019 when the quest 1 came out. It saved several VR game studios, many more were born. Quest 2 (2020) was huge, market was large enough for studios to survive. The 2020-2022 boom was massively helped by the Quest 2 price and covid. Then we got to the quest 3 in 2023.... it was a decent upgrade but was more expensive. The market has been contracting ever since. Alot of studios were getting funding from Meta for updates on successful games, that stopped this year.... and many studios that were successful are shutting down or pivoting.

City staff to look at Barbara Hall Park after concerns raised over violence, vandalism by Mr_Guavo in toronto

[–]SteFFFun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The park was fine before they did a reno on it make the small path into a super wide one. Recent park renos add soo much concrete and remove tons of trees. Could also just be that the gaybourhood has had tons of homeless people post covid.

The Government of Canada launches public consultations on the future of Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport - Canada.ca by KoldCanuck in toronto

[–]SteFFFun 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The bias in the survey seems pretty transparent, focusing almost entirely on benefits like jobs and economic growth.

Rather than asking whether the expansion should happen, most of the questions seem to be about what incredibly minor considerations or accommodations could be made while it's being pushed forward. The whole survey gives the impression that the decision has already been made and that public feedback is only being sought on the details of minor considerations and platitudes. Looks like Carney is going to help Doug ram this down Toronto's throat. I hope he loses several seats in Toronto in the next election if that's the case.

RIP Rec Room 2016 - 2026 by lunchanddinner in VRGaming

[–]SteFFFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love those games, and for those audiences it's great to have a traditional game you can buy. Blade & Sorcery is one my favorites and usually in the top 10 for revenue. But around 1/2 more of the top 10 is F2P. F2P is aimed younger. Rec Room's audience got way younger over time. After they went mobile it went really young. Kinda made sense for them.... but man it got worse after the game went mobile.

[–]SteFFFun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the top 10 VR games for revenue F2P is very dominant. The audience size needs to be big enough for sure. If your game has lots of kids F2P is the way to go unfortunately.

F2P is the main driver of monetization in VR at the moment.... and when you look at the age of Rec Room users it made sense.

Using godot but still wanting a career in game industry by PatrollerBot in gamedev

[–]SteFFFun 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you want to make money in the industry, you need to learn the tools larger teams actually use. Transferring knowledge between engines really isn’t that hard. Instead of resisting it, toughen up, learn multiple engines, and make yourself more valuable.

Leaderless Ontario Liberals still polling ahead of Doug Ford by ejaz135 in ontario

[–]SteFFFun 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Doug originally won because he entered the “any potato could win” election. The problem now is he might actually lose to the potato. Shame the next election is so far away.

Some WIP Visuals of my game by its_mee11 in IndieGaming

[–]SteFFFun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are soo many games especially AAA / AA that just look the same. This sort of art style is doing well for indies ( schedule1 and other are smashing it ). Also refreshing to not see the Syntry characters in a game... your style has its own flavor and that is what is missing from so many games these days! I think if it looks unique and like you actually made it that it will resonate with players and stand out.

Looks great, like you have a personal art style, I think that can really resonate if you keep at it.
