everytime I play ME2 that one scene with Mordin just makes me laugh so much. especially the awkward silence

Yay starting to bring together a simple stats and combat system for my text game. Need to move the output to a windows form or find some other way to generate a window in #csharp #Dotnet 8. I'd prefer to make it crossplatform, but hey... Anyone got any ideas? #indiedev #gamedevs

"Create a simple text game in c# " I said. "Try and use Regex for inputs" I returned. "Try and give it a windows form frontend so it looks nicer" I said. Turns out, if you start a console application and then later on, decide to put a windows form on top of it, it hurts. A lot. #CSharp #VisualStudio

Huzzah! my learning continues, I am on the way to learning.... _Regular Expressions_ (given I have no formal training so far, it's big step for me.) can't be a dev without regex! #codinglife #learncoding

looking forward to getting back into the office and stArt coding again Monday. Now if could only sort out my camera issue it'd be great. otherwise I might have to do my other project. #gamedevs #indiedev #codinglife

first round of food in for the NYE buffet. POW. Second round prepared. BAM. Evenings viewing planned, let's go new years. Hope you all had a happy Christmas or at least a non-stressful one. Here's to 2025! #NewYearsEve

So how's everyone's Christmas run ups going? well I hope! already eaten too much chocolate, blitzed out on Xmas movies and Xmas hits yet?

replaying OG ff7 and the cloud revelation at the northern crater still gets me. Always loved how it played out, I mean yeah the cinematographical feel is a bit weird these days, but for the time it felt so brilliant #ff7 #retrogaming

I think I give up. 4 days I've spent trying to work out this movement and I can't do it. everything I've tried has not worked. I'm done I think. I'm not good enough. #GameDevelopment #IndieDevs #SoloDev

Sometimes I wish that I could simply glare angrily at my code and it would feel cowed and rearrange itself so it behaves as it should. I believe my monitors have burned in eye spots from me trying this. #GameDevs #IndieDevs #Coding

I remember when you could just buy a computer program like Microsoft Word or Photoshop and just have it on your computer forever without having to pay monthly or yearly. What a time that was

I just completed "Mull It Over" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/3 Holy shit how did that even work?

#adventofcode beat me today only one star I'm able to get grrrr *shakes fist* #coding

I just completed "Historian Hysteria" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1 hell yes!

is it too early to put up the Xmas tree? naaaahhhh

So after experimenting with trying to install unreal on my Linux distro, I have now been reduced to a blubbering pile of goo, residing in the corner until LinuxMint forgets who I am and lets me leave... #unrealengine #indiedevs

That feeling you get when you witness this message after leaving the Git upload running "RPC Failed, the requested URL RETURNED ERROR 400" 😭😭😭😭 #Github #gamedev

well i guess i might be able to work something with this, need to juggle timelines though. otherwise i'll probably have to sledge the terrain underneath the player whilst keeping thier ship constrained. Which sounds and feels icky. #madewithunity #unity3d #indiedev #gamedevs

Well hello all you new followers and welcome. So I sat down at work today and I'm potentially about to make the worst mistake; Installing #UnrealEngine on #Linux! Or is it? what do all you indie devs think? is it worth it using Linux's inbuilt c++ affinities, or is it a terrible idea? any advice?

wow that's a lot of new followers! hello there! I will have to start creating more content! welcome all!

Huzzah! my background parallaxing sort of works! Woop! #IndieDev #BeginnerDev #MadeWithUnity
