Had an outage from the internet today at home, thankfully my work shift was nearly over so I didn't lose anything per se. You folks are not going to believe what fixed it after I waited a few hours... ... Yes it was "ipconfig /flushdns" 😑

Bluesky has been flooded with automated reply bots - they'll offer a sort of confrontational opinion as a reply. They're pretty convincing and we all need to train ourselves to not reflexively reply to all responses until we check Dead giveaway is new acct, few followers + original posts

Sincerely thinking about removing the skeleton of a crafting system I have in my game after this read 🤔 I already had feelings about it being a scope creep

Then there's me wanting to give continuity to my novel after a 1-week break due to my company meeting then I realized just now I have 8 days to deliver the partial conclusion of my essay in my University. Guess my creative prospects will have to wait a little longer 😔✊

Yes, I know Skyrim is NOT actually a cozy game. 🙄 For the tenth time already guys. No it’s not because I don’t know what a comfort game is. But with mods you can fight not a damned thing. And you can build houses, fish, collect, wed, and adopt. Huh, sounds like a COZY GAME to me.

As I write for two days in a row, I noticed a massive issue with my tone: My English is *very* technical, I need to do multiple passes in order to refine my texts. The curses of being ESL and having learned the language through a technical lens many years ago.

I... I actually started working on a story, writing five pages. Not a lot but this is my first time writing a novel fully in English. I've only wrote dialogue-based pieces for my games before. #WritingCommunity

Post a picture of yourself to show the newbies what they're dealing with. (Unfortunately I may be just one of the extras whose lack of faith disturbs some )

A friend of mine came to me today with the plan of making a game on an engine I haven't used before (Godot). I still have my RPG Maker game coming and guess what the idiot here did? I accepted, for now. 🤡

So folks some update on why I was willing to show off my game, buying a new Wacom tablet and then ended up not doing it: I got scammed a month ago and lost some substantial amount of money, shame on me, I know 😐 Had to do some contingency planning and things are slowly turning back to normal again

🇧🇷 Pessoal, vocês assistiriam uma livestream de desenho de levels? Perguntando pra ver a viabilidade de eu fazer algo do tipo no futuro. --- 🇬🇧 Folks, would you watch a level design livestream? Asking to check the viability of me doing such thing in the future. #gamedev #indiedev #rpgmaker

Meu level design no RPG Maker não usa parallax mapping (os overlays não conversam mto bem com um plugin de smooth scrolling que uso). A maior dor atual nessa parte tá sendo a ausência de brushes pra colocar vegetação. Qualquer mapa de 40x40 q tem mato leva umas 4 hrs pra fazer 🫠 #gamedev #rpgmaker
