Despite the rapidly greying, shrinking population of blademakers in Japan, their fine steel swords known as katana are amassing a new generation of fans, particularly younger women, on the back of pop culture. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/12/japan/japan-katana-pupularity/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #japanesecrafts #anime #videogames

"The Afrofuturist heist game offers engaging puzzles, a memorable cast, and a sharp answer for how to start fixing colonizers’ centuries of wrongdoing. Nomali, an All-African freerunning champion whose speed has earned her the nickname Lightning, gets roped into her grandmother Professor Grace’s plan to reclaim stolen African artifacts from private collections and auction houses across the world, returning them to the people they were taken from."
Love the premise!

The government will step up support for expanding content industries overseas, such as games and anime, as overseas sales of Japanese content reached around ¥5.8 trillion in 2023. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/11/japan/japan-anime-games-content/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #videogames #anime #manga #intellectualproperty

Hello!
I just moved in from another instance, so here is an introduction:
I live in Italy, I have been working in the videogames industry for a long time and I love my job.
I always loved tech just as much as I love art, tea, cats, books, D&D, and heavy metal.
I care about equal rights for all humans, sustainability, and people above profit.
My favourite game I worked on is Control. Favourites I haven't worked on are Dragon Age and Animal Crossing.
Pronouns: she/her.

Somebody made the "Reverse Indiana Jones" game, where artifacts are liberated from museums.

Ok fediverse, I want to start streaming video games again. Which #peertube instance would you recommend I join? I'll be focusing on retro point & clicks and indie point & clicks. Ideally one where I can integrate chat to my channel (I'm brand new to this approach).
Two Point Hospital is a very fun game and has 80% discounted on GOG, which makes it just 65 NOK (which converts to just under 6 EUR)
