Hunches and gut feelings. Dreams in waking life.

I organize the Eurovision Song Contest, but exclusive to Lemmy, it’s called Lemmyvision !

    • https://en.malt.fr/ started as a french website but they’re in multiple European countries now (also UAE idk why, shame), you chan change countries in the top right of the webpage
    • https://dribbble.com/ is legally based in Canada but maintained by a fully remote team, designer in here are from all over the world

    Upwork, Behance, Contra, are all registered in the US, but you may find freelancers from Europe, though, Contra has no fee

    It’s not the place for self advertising but I’m a designer myself, feel free to DM me. If you need a set of icons, be aware that there are tons of open source libraries available online, I’ll try to list a few later today



  • I think the common denominator is a strong / immersive story and universe that appeals to me (big fan of sf), interesting mechanics and gameplay in a way that makes the game unique in its own way, and the artistic approach behind the game, so for each of those :

    • Outer Wilds was a fantastic experience that you can only live once, the freedom of exploration is crazy, the feelings you can go through in the span of a single minute make it so memorable, I connected with this game like no other
    • Death Stranding I played during one of the lockdowns, and after hiking in Iceland, it was a continuity of these two experiences that felt very personal. It was also my introduction to Kojima games. I found it to be such a premium experience and statement about video games, I loved the insanity of the plot, and once you dug deeper, you find all the artistic inspiration and process that went behind the game, it’s an insane work of interactive art
    • Disco Elysium I was already fully on board just learning about the game, I sympathise with the authors, the fact that it started as an rpg campaign, with immense lore behind it, love the art style, the narration, the story and its themes, I haven’t lived in post USSR Europe but the game make me nostalgic/melancholic for a time, aesthetic, struggles I didn’t know

    They’re my absolute favourite but some games come close, Inscryption, Pyre, Spiritfarer…
