Dwarf Fortress financials mark fairytale ending for indie developer
In a nutshell: Various tech giants like Meta, Google, Amazon, and Apple posted negative quarterly and annual statements this week. Amidst the corporate gloom, it's nice to see financials that tell a hopeful story for a small company, especially one behind a game as popular as Dwarf Fortress. A month after the first commercial release of Dwarf Fortress, the game's developer revealed this week that it earned $7.23 million in sales. According to Bay 12 Games' comparison, the number eclipses returns from the previous four months by two decimal points. In each of the months between September and December 2022, Bay 12 Games brought in around $15,000, most of it likely from Patreon donations. After offering the immensely popular Dwarf Fortress exclusively as freeware for 16 years, the company released the first commercial version on December 6, and a few weeks later posted the astronomical January increase. In a post on the Bay 12 forums, the developers say almost half of the money … [Read more...] about Dwarf Fortress financials mark fairytale ending for indie developer
Cette nouvelle carte d’Overwatch 2 est peut-être horrible pour Mei mais pour nous, elle est géniale
Ce n'est un secret pour personne ! La grande nouveauté de la saison 3 d'Overwatch 2 devrait être une carte. Blizzard a clairement indiqué que chaque saison apporterait avec elle de nouveaux contenus, alternant entre un nouveau héros et une nouvelle carte. La saison dernière a apporté Ramattra, donc une carte devrait être au menu de la saison 3. Cependant, lors d'une interview avec l'équipe de développement de Blizzard, nous avons découvert de nouveaux détails passionnants enfouis dans cette toundra glacée. Ce nouveau mode, baptisé Péninsule Antarctique, se trouve au bord de l'océan Atlantique, au plus près de la partie la plus méridionale de l'Amérique du Sud. Ici, le héros d'Overwatch 2, le climatologue Mei, a entrepris de rechercher les effets du réchauffement climatique sur les calottes glaciaires. Comme il s'agit d'un mode de contrôle, nous n'avons pas une, mais trois cartes distinctes. Ce style de capture d'objectif est un mode de jeu en trois rounds, où le but est de … [Read more...] about Cette nouvelle carte d’Overwatch 2 est peut-être horrible pour Mei mais pour nous, elle est géniale
Insiders say Sony slashed PlayStation VR2 production; Sony says, “No we didn’t”
Rumor mill: Word on the street is that Sony's PS VR2 pre-orders were disappointing. As such, insiders say the company is allegedly cutting back production. The two million units it expected to sell in the first quarter of 2023 are now projected to take until March 2024 to move. However, Sony says these reports are false, and everything is on track. With Sony's PS VR2 only three weeks from release, Bloomberg reports that the company has cut shipments of the next-gen VR headset in half due to low pre-orders. The company previously estimated it would ship at least two million units in its launch quarter. However, anonymous sources say those sales are now projected at one million. Sony expects another 1.5 million units to ship between April this year and March 2024. Bloomberg reached out to Sony for official comment, but a spokesperson said, "the company does not discuss its product inventory." However, shortly after publishing the story, Sony told GamesIndustry.biz that it had not … [Read more...] about Insiders say Sony slashed PlayStation VR2 production; Sony says, “No we didn’t”
