I got a NeutralinoJS app to launch on my Steam Deck! I had to install 3 arch packages though. 🤔 If I can get around that gracefully we'll be cooking with gas.

This morning I've been trying to get a WebView app to run on Steam Deck, native. So far? No dice. Also no dice for a Windows build running in Proton—I'm guessing it doesn't provide WebView2 out of the box.

Today: trying to plan out how to do entity placement/editing in the editor. Thinking I think paid off - let's see how it looks when I get it implemented ^^

Has anyone succeeded at enabling pointer lock in a Tauri app on macOS? 🤔 Is it allowed by WebView in the first place?

Modern Nintendo is weird because they'll just rotoscope a bunch of scenes from Ghibli movies and then try to patent something like "Link can stand on a moving platform" in the same breath. 🙄

This is a reminder to carefully consider participating in any game jam with Terms and prizes. Always always always read the fine print. Most of you don't have an attorney—take the agreement to your most literate friend or an LLM or something and make sure you understand it.

Seeing some corporate game jam organizers circling like vultures to try to "spawn camp" future jam unicorn projects like Celeste and capitalize on them at the expense of naive jam participants who didn't read the fine print is both grody and embarrassing.

There are lots of talks and such now about Data Oriented Design, but the Mike Acton talk is a classic. What remains most striking to me about it, what really caused a shift in my thinking, was just how offended some of the attendees seemed during the Q&A portion, in 2014!

The pixel density on the @play.date means you can really cram in some fine detail if you wanna, and it stays super crisp. I'm loving developing for this device so far.
