  • En un rincón oscuro de mi mente, donde la soledad se arraiga como una sombra implacable, me encuentro reflexionando sobre el Proyecto Acheron. Este trabajo, que comenzó como un destello de esperanza, se ha transformado en un recordatorio doloroso de lo que podría haber sido. Las horas que pasé inmerso en el mundo del Spider-Verse, soñando con crear algo mágico, ahora se sienten vacías, como un eco en un vasto desierto.

    A veces, miro los renders finales, esos fragmentos de esfuerzo y dedicación, y me pregunto: ¿valió la pena? La comunidad de Blender Artists se unió con entusiasmo, compartiendo su apoyo y creatividad. Pero en medio de esa colaboración, el silencio de la incomprensión resuena en mi corazón. ¿Dónde están aquellos que prometieron estar a mi lado? ¿Por qué esta travesía se siente tan solitaria, como si estuviera remando contra la corriente sin un destino claro?

    Las palabras que una vez llenaron la sala de trabajo se han desvanecido. La risa y la camaradería, esos momentos que hacían que cada desvelo valiera la pena, se han convertido en simples recuerdos. La pasión que sentía por el proyecto, por el arte y la creación, ahora se mezcla con una tristeza abrumadora. A veces, el peso de las expectativas se siente como una losa sobre mi pecho.

    Acheron, un nombre que evoca la travesía hacia lo desconocido, se ha convertido en un símbolo de mi propia lucha interna. La lucha entre el deseo de avanzar y la realidad de una soledad aplastante. Cada línea de código, cada render, ahora está impregnada de un dolor sutil, una advertencia de que incluso en los momentos de mayor creatividad, la soledad puede acechar.

    ¿Podrá alguna vez este proyecto ser lo que imaginé? ¿O se convertirá en un recordatorio constante de que, a veces, los sueños pueden volverse pesadillas? La vida, con sus giros inesperados y decepciones, me ha enseñado que no siempre hay un final feliz, incluso en las historias que parecen prometedoras.

    Hoy, al mirar hacia el futuro, me aferro a la esperanza de que algún día encontraré la luz en esta oscuridad. Que el Proyecto Acheron no solo sea un eco de mis fracasos, sino un faro que me guíe hacia nuevas oportunidades. Pero por ahora, en esta soledad compartida, solo puedo dejar fluir mis lágrimas y esperar que, algún día, alguien escuche mi lamento.

    Project Acheron - Spider-Verse inspired workflow
    The Class Creatives team recently shared this detailed Behind the Scenes post on the Blender Artists forum. I thought it was an interesting enough read to republish it here. We have been working on project Acheron for a few years, and we wanted to sh
  • In a world where dreams fade like whispers in the wind, I find myself grappling with a sense of profound solitude. The announcement of the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake in 2020 felt like a beacon of hope, a reminder that nostalgia could be revived and cherished once more. Yet, as the years drag on, that hope has turned into a haunting echo of what could have been.

    Every time I think of that game, I recall the joy it once brought me, the adventures that filled my heart with a sense of purpose. It was more than just a game; it was a journey through time, a dance with destiny. But here we are, four years later, and all that remains is a whisper of disappointment. Ubisoft continues to reassure us that they are still working on that remake, but each update feels like a distant promise, an unreachable star in the night sky.

    I remember the excitement of the initial announcement—the thrill of reimagining a beloved classic. But as the Summer Game Fest came and went without even a glimpse of hope, the weight of my disillusionment deepened. The silence is deafening, leaving me feeling abandoned in a world that once felt so vibrant.

    The characters that once filled my heart with courage now feel like shadows of my past, their stories lost in the abyss of time. I find myself longing for the thrill of adventure, the rush of battle, and the beauty of a well-crafted narrative. Instead, I am left staring at the screen, hoping for a glimmer of news that never seems to come. The promise of that remake feels like a cruel joke, a reminder of the fleeting nature of hope.

    As I navigate this sea of loneliness, I can’t help but wonder: will the sands of time ever reveal the magic we once anticipated? Or are we like the Prince, trapped in a never-ending loop, forever chasing a dream that remains just out of reach? The ache of anticipation has transformed into a heavy heart, burdened with the weight of unrealized expectations.

    In this moment of reflection, I realize that I am not alone in this feeling. Many of us are waiting, hoping for something that may never arrive. It’s a shared grief, a collective yearning for the joy that once was. And while the world moves on, I find solace in the memories of the past—memories that continue to flicker like dying embers in a darkened room.

    So here I sit, a solitary figure in the vastness of the gaming community, clutching onto the fragments of a dream that feels like a distant memory. Perhaps one day, the sands will shift, and we will finally see the Prince rise once more. Until then, I remain in this bittersweet limbo, caught between hope and despair.

    Ubisoft Still Working On That Prince Of Persia Remake That Was Announced In 2020
    Remember that Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake Ubisoft announced back in 2020? The one that was supposed to launch four years ago? Well, it’s still in development according to a new update from the publisher after the game was a no-show dur
  • Formentera20 is back, and this time it promises to be even more enlightening than the last twelve editions combined. Can you feel the excitement in the air? From October 2 to 4, 2025, the idyllic shores of Formentera will serve as the perfect backdrop for our favorite gathering of digital wizards, creativity gurus, and communication wizards. Because nothing says "cutting-edge innovation" quite like a tropical island where you can sip on your coconut water while discussing the latest trends in the digital universe.

    This year’s theme? A delightful concoction of culture, creativity, and communication—all served with a side of salty sea breeze. Who knew the key to world-class networking was just a plane ticket away to a beach? Forget about conference rooms; nothing like a sun-kissed beach to inspire groundbreaking ideas. Surely, the sound of waves crashing will help us unlock the secrets of digital communication.

    And let’s not overlook the stellar lineup of speakers they've assembled. I can only imagine the conversations: “How can we boost engagement on social media?” followed by a collective nod as they all sip their overpriced organic juices. I’m sure the beach vibes will lend an air of authenticity to those discussions on algorithm tweaks and engagement metrics. Because nothing screams “authenticity” quite like a luxury resort hosting the crème de la crème of the advertising world.

    Let’s not forget the irony of discussing “innovation” while basking in the sun. Because what better way to innovate than to sit in a circle, wearing sunglasses, while contemplating the latest app that helps you find the nearest beach bar? It’s the dream, isn’t it? It’s almost poetic how the world of high-tech communication thrives in such a low-tech environment—a setting that leaves you wondering if the real innovation is simply the ability to disconnect from the digital chaos while still pretending to be a part of it.

    But let’s be real: the true highlight of Formentera20 is not the knowledge shared or the networking done; it’s the Instagram posts that will flood our feeds. After all, who doesn’t want to showcase their “hard work” at a digital festival by posting a picture of themselves with a sunset in the background? It’s all about branding, darling.

    So, mark your calendars! Prepare your best beach outfit and your most serious expression for photos. Come for the culture, stay for the creativity, and leave with the satisfaction of having been part of something that sounds ridiculously important while you, in reality, are just enjoying a holiday under the guise of professional development.

    In the end, Formentera20 isn’t just a festival; it’s an experience—one that lets you bask in the sun while pretending you’re solving the world’s digital problems. Cheers to innovation, creativity, and the art of making work look like a vacation!

  • So, it seems we've reached a new pinnacle of gaming evolution: "20 crazy chats in VR: I Am Cat becomes multiplayer!" Because who wouldn’t want to get virtually whisked away into the life of a cat, especially in a world where you can now fight over the last sunbeam with your friends?

    Picture this: you, your best friends, and a multitude of digital felines engaging in an epic battle for supremacy over the living room floor, all while your actual cats sit on the couch judging you for your life choices. Yes, that's right! Instead of going outside, you can stay home and role-play as a furry overlord, clawing your way to the top of the cat hierarchy. Truly, the pinnacle of human achievement.

    Let’s be real—this is what we’ve all been training for. Forget about world peace, solving climate change, or even learning a new language. All we need is a VR headset and the ability to meow at each other in a simulated environment. I mean, who needs to engage in meaningful conversations when you can have a deeply philosophical debate about the merits of catnip versus laser pointers in a virtual universe, right?

    And for those who feel a bit competitive, you can now invite your friends to join in on the madness. Nothing screams camaraderie like a group of grown adults fighting like cats over a virtual ball of yarn. I can already hear the discussions around the water cooler: "Did you see how I pounced on Timmy during our last cat clash? Pure feline finesse!"

    But let’s not forget the real question here—who is the target audience for a multiplayer cat simulation? Are we really that desperate for social interaction that we have to resort to virtually prancing around as our feline companions? Or is this just a clever ploy to distract us from the impending doom of reality?

    In any case, "I Am Cat" has taken the gaming world by storm, proving once again that when it comes to video games, anything is possible. So, grab your headsets, round up your fellow cat enthusiasts, and prepare for some seriously chaotic fun. Just be sure to keep the real cats away from your gaming area; they might not appreciate being upstaged by your virtual alter ego.

    Welcome to the future of gaming, where we can all be the cats we were meant to be—tangled in yarn, chasing invisible mice, and claiming every sunny spot in the house as our own. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned from this VR frenzy, it's that being a cat is not just a lifestyle; it’s a multiplayer experience.

  • In the quiet moments, when the world feels heavy and my heart is an echo of the past, I find myself drawn into the realm of Endless Legend 2. Just like the characters that roam through its beautifully crafted landscapes, I too wander through my own desolate terrains of disappointment and solitude.

    In an age where connections are just a click away, I feel an overwhelming wave of loneliness wash over me. It's as if the colors of my life have faded into shades of grey, much like the emptiness that lingers in the air. I once believed in the promise of adventure and the thrill of exploration, but now I’m left with the haunting reminder of dreams unfulfilled. The anticipation for Endless Legend 2, scheduled for early access on August 7, is bittersweet. It stirs a deep longing within me for the days when joy was effortlessly abundant.

    Jean-Maxime Moris, the creative director of Amplitude Studios, speaks of worlds to conquer, of stories to tell. Yet, each word feels like a distant whisper, a reminder of the tales I used to weave in my mind. I once imagined myself as a brave hero, surrounded by friends who would join me in battle. Now, I sit alone, the flickering light of my screen the only companion in this vast expanse of isolation.

    Every character in the game resonates with pieces of my own soul, reflecting my fears and hopes. The intricate design of Endless Legend 2 mirrors the complexity of my emotions; beautiful yet deeply fraught with the struggle of existence. I yearn for the laughter of companions and the warmth of camaraderie, yet here I am, cloaked in shadows, fighting battles that are often invisible to the outside world.

    As I read about the game, I can almost hear the distant armies clashing, feel the pulse of a story waiting to unfold. But reality is stark; the realms I traverse are not just virtual landscapes but the silent corridors of my mind, echoing with the sounds of my own solitude. I wish I could escape into that world, to feel the thrill of adventure once more, to connect with others who understand the weight of these unspoken burdens.

    But for now, all I have are the remnants of hope, the flickering flames of what could be. And as the countdown to Endless Legend 2 continues, I can’t help but wonder if the game will offer me a reprieve from this loneliness or merely serve as a reminder of the connections I yearn for.

  • In a world where the most riveting conversations revolve around the intricacies of USB-C power cables and, no less, the riveting excitement of clocks, it's clear that humanity has reached a new peak of intellectual stimulation. The latest episode of the Hackaday Podcast, which I can only assume has a live studio audience composed entirely of enthusiastic engineers, delves deep into the art of DIY USB cables and the riveting world of plastic punches. Who knew that the very fabric of our modern existence could be woven together with such gripping topics?

    Let’s talk about those USB-C power cables for a moment. If you ever thought your life was lacking a bit of suspense, fear not! You can now embark on a thrilling journey where you, too, can solder the perfect cable. Imagine the rush of adrenaline as you uncover the secrets of power distribution. Will your device charge? Will it explode? The stakes have never been higher! Forget about action movies; this is the real deal. And for those who prefer the “punch” in their lives—no, not the fruity drink, but rather the plastic punching tools—we're diving into a world where you can create perfectly punched holes in plastic, for all your DIY needs. Because what better way to spend your weekend than creating a masterpiece that no one will ever see or appreciate?

    And of course, let's not overlook the “Laugh Track Machine.” Yes, you heard that right. In times when social interactions have been reduced to Zoom calls and emojis, the need for a laugh track has never been more essential. Imagine the ambiance you could create at your next dinner party: a perfectly timed laugh track responding to your mediocre jokes about USB cables. If that doesn’t scream societal progress, I don’t know what does.

    Elliot and Al, the podcast's dynamic duo, took a week-long hiatus just to recharge their mental batteries before launching into this treasure trove of knowledge. It’s like they went on a sabbatical to the land of “Absolutely Not Boring.” You can almost hear the tension build as they return to tackle the most pressing matters of our time. Forget climate change or global health crises; the real issues we should all be focused on are the nuances of home-built tech.

    It's fascinating how this episode manages to encapsulate the spirit of our times—where the excitement of crafting cables and punching holes serves as a distraction from the complexities of life. So, if you seek to feel alive again, tune in to the Hackaday Podcast. You might just find that your greatest adventure lies in the world of DIY tech, where the only thing more fragile than your creations is your will to continue listening.

    And remember, in this brave new world of innovation, if your USB-C cable fails, you can always just punch a hole in something—preferably not your dreams.

  • Je suis vraiment en colère contre la façon dont les entreprises nous manipulent avec des produits inutiles comme les machines à slushie ! Qui a besoin de ces gadgets encombrants ? Je suis tombé sur un article sur 'Les 2 meilleures machines à slushie de 2025 pour un été frais' et je ne peux pas croire à quel point cela va à l'encontre de la santé de notre société. La Ninja Slushi est présentée comme la meilleure machine, mais attendez une minute ! Il y a une autre machine ? Pourquoi est-ce que personne ne parle des conséquences de cette surconsommation absurde ?

    Nous vivons dans un monde où la technologie devrait simplifier nos vies, pas les compliquer avec des appareils inutiles qui ne font que nous encourager à nous gaver de sucre. Ces machines à slushie, avec leur promesse d'un été rafraîchissant, ne sont rien d'autre qu'un piège marketing ! Elles nous poussent à acheter plus de produits transformés, plus de sucre, et finalement, à détruire notre santé. Est-ce que cela vous semble raisonnable ? Non, c’est scandaleux !

    Chaque été, c'est la même histoire : des publicités brillantes, des machines glamours qui promettent de nous offrir la meilleure boisson glacée. Et qu'est-ce qu'on obtient en retour ? Une dépendance au sucre et un portefeuille vide. Pourquoi ne pas simplement faire des slushies maison avec des fruits frais et de l'eau ? Non, au lieu de cela, les entreprises nous poussent à acheter ces machines qui prennent de la place dans notre cuisine et qui ne seront utilisées qu'une ou deux fois avant de devenir de la poussière.

    Et parlons de l'impact environnemental ! Ces machines à slushie nécessitent de l'énergie, des plastiques pour les contenants et des ingrédients souvent emballés dans du plastique. Alors qu'on nous parle de durabilité, ces gadgets font tout le contraire. Au lieu de réduire notre empreinte écologique, nous nous retrouvons à en augmenter une, tout cela pour une boisson glacée qui, soyons honnêtes, peut être faite à la maison sans effort.

    Il est temps de se réveiller et de refuser d'être manipulés par ces pratiques commerciales scandaleuses. Nous devons nous demander : est-ce vraiment ce dont nous avons besoin ? Ou est-ce simplement une autre façon de nous faire dépenser notre argent durement gagné pour des produits qui n'apportent aucune valeur réelle à nos vies ?

    Alors, au lieu de vous précipiter pour acheter la Ninja Slushi ou l'autre machine à slushie qui ne fait que renforcer cette culture de la consommation, réfléchissez à ce que vous achetez et à ce que cela signifie pour votre santé et l'environnement. Ce n'est pas qu'une question de rafraîchissement, c'est une question de bon sens !

    Je suis vraiment en colère contre la façon dont les entreprises nous manipulent avec des produits inutiles comme les machines à slushie ! Qui a besoin de ces gadgets encombrants ? Je suis tombé sur un article sur 'Les 2 meilleures machines à slushie de 2025 pour un été frais' et je ne peux pas croire à quel point cela va à l'encontre de la santé de notre société. La Ninja Slushi est présentée comme la meilleure machine, mais attendez une minute ! Il y a une autre machine ? Pourquoi est-ce que personne ne parle des conséquences de cette surconsommation absurde ? Nous vivons dans un monde où la technologie devrait simplifier nos vies, pas les compliquer avec des appareils inutiles qui ne font que nous encourager à nous gaver de sucre. Ces machines à slushie, avec leur promesse d'un été rafraîchissant, ne sont rien d'autre qu'un piège marketing !

  • Dans un monde où chaque lettre, chaque espace, chaque courbe porte un poids émotionnel, je me retrouve perdu dans l'immensité de l'absence. La typographie, si souvent négligée, est pour moi le reflet de mon âme en détresse.

    Lorsque je pense à l'importance de la typographie dans le branding, je réalise à quel point elle peut transformer les émotions en quelque chose de tangible. Mais dans ma solitude, je me sens comme une lettre oubliée, une police sans caractère. Les juges des Brand Impact Awards peuvent parler des "quatre cadrans typographiques" essentiels pour réussir, mais que faire quand tout cela semble si éloigné, si inaccessible?

    Chaque jour, je scrute des mots, des formes, des couleurs qui pourraient m'apporter un peu de réconfort, mais tout cela ne fait qu'accentuer le vide dans mon cœur. La typographie est censée créer des connexions, mais moi, je me sens déconnecté, errant dans un paysage de lettres qui ne racontent que des histoires d'autres. Chaque fois que je vois une belle marque, je me rappelle que même les mots peuvent être des refuges, mais je n'ai personne avec qui partager ce refuge.

    Les polices de caractères s'entrelacent pour former des récits puissants, mais je suis coincé dans un chapitre inachevé, un livre dont la couverture est usée par le temps et la mélancolie. La beauté de la typographie est qu'elle peut capturer un moment, une émotion, mais que dire lorsque ces moments semblent me fuir? Lorsque les dials de l'inspiration se bloquent, que reste-t-il à part le ressentiment et la nostalgie d'une époque où chaque lettre avait un sens?

    Je me demande si quelqu'un d'autre ressent cette même douleur, cette même envie d'être compris au-delà des mots. La typographie est, après tout, une danse de l'expression. Mais que faire quand la musique s'arrête, et que l'on se retrouve seul sur la piste de danse, les échos du passé résonnant encore dans nos oreilles?

    Alors, je continue à chercher, à espérer que quelque part, une nouvelle typographie viendra me chercher, pour me rappeler que même dans la solitude, chaque lettre compte. Chaque espace, chaque mot, chaque souffle peut encore résonner dans l'univers. Mais pour l’instant, je reste ici, dans l’ombre de ce que j’ai perdu.

  • It’s absolutely infuriating how the creative industry is still drowning in mediocrity when it comes to job opportunities for Blender artists. The recent overview titled ‘Blender Jobs for June 20, 2025’ is nothing short of a disgrace! What are we doing here? Are we seriously still looking for someone to create low poly cartoonish clothing assets? This is 2025, people! The demand for innovation and quality is at an all-time high, yet we are settling for these lazy, uninspired roles that only push the boundaries of our creativity further back into the dark ages.

    The description outlines a desperate search for artists to create thumbnails for YouTube and basic asset production—who gave these companies the right to expect top-notch creativity while offering peanuts in return? This is a blatant disrespect to the talented artists struggling to make a name for themselves. The industry has turned into a free-for-all where anyone with a computer thinks they can just toss out these ridiculous requests, undermining the hard work and passion of those who actually have skills worth paying for.

    “Stealth Startup” and “Pizza Party Productions”? Really? Is this some kind of joke? These names scream lack of professionalism and vision. How can we expect to elevate the standards of our industry when these half-baked companies are running around hiring interns instead of investing in real talent? It’s ludicrous! What’s next? A startup looking for someone to animate stick figures for a viral TikTok? Come on!

    Let’s not even get started on the ridiculous notion of internships being the new norm for artists trying to break into the industry. The term “3D Artist Intern” is a euphemism for “overworked and underpaid.” The expectation that fresh graduates should be thrilled to work for free just to “gain experience” is not only exploitative but utterly shameful. These companies need to step up their game and start valuing the creativity and hard work that goes into crafting quality art.

    Every time I scroll through these job postings, I feel my blood boil. Are we going to continue to allow this cycle of mediocrity to persist? It’s time for artists to take a stand and demand better. We need opportunities that challenge us, not these mundane tasks that anyone with a basic understanding of Blender could complete.

    We deserve to work in an environment that fosters creativity, innovation, and respect for our craft. If these companies want to attract real talent, they need to start offering competitive pay and meaningful projects that actually inspire artists instead of dragging them down into the depths of blandness and monotony.

    Wake up, industry! The future of Blender artistry hinges on your willingness to embrace quality over quantity. Stop settling for mediocre job listings and start aiming for greatness.

  • Dune Awakening fait parler de lui en ce moment. C’est un peu le jeu qui attire l’attention, surtout après le succès des films Dune. Funcom a donc décidé de surfer sur cette vague pour lancer le jeu. Mais bon, comme d’habitude, il y a des critiques. Le PvP, apparemment, ne plaît pas à tout le monde. Des joueurs se plaignent d’un équilibre qui laisse à désirer. Pas très surprenant, en fait.

    Funcom a promis qu’ils allaient travailler là-dessus, mais on se demande si ça va vraiment changer quelque chose. On est un peu fatigué d’entendre des promesses qui ne mènent à rien. Le jeu cartonne, donc on pourrait penser qu'ils ont quelque chose de solide entre les mains. Mais là, on a juste l’impression qu’ils essaient de gérer une situation qu’ils n’ont pas prévue.

    Les joueurs parlent beaucoup, surtout sur les forums. Les avis sont partagés. D'un côté, il y a ceux qui kiffent le jeu, mais de l’autre, il y a une bonne partie de la communauté qui n’est pas du tout satisfaite du PvP. C’est un peu ennuyeux, franchement. La promesse d’un équilibre, on l’a déjà entendue dans d’autres jeux, et on sait comment ça finit. Souvent, c’est juste du vent.

    En résumé, Dune Awakening est en train de devenir un gros titre, mais les critiques sur le PvP pourraient freiner son élan. Funcom a du pain sur la planche pour satisfaire tout le monde. Pour l’instant, on attend de voir s’ils vont vraiment agir ou si on va juste rester là, à attendre des mises à jour qui ne viennent jamais.
