It's almost like delegating moment-to-moment gameplay to a non deterministic hallucination machine is a fantastically shit idea or something

It's depressing how little convenience is required for people to not only throw their privacy away but also fucking pay for the privilege

Yeah! You find yourself taking it seriously then remember the game asks you to smoke and drink to have the speed and strength (??) to outrun bears and flip an RV lol

I haven't laughed at a game as much as RVTY in a long time, what a wonderful stupid experience

I just don't understand who would voluntarily atrophy their brain like this, I got into programming because I LIKE solving problems like wtf is this nonsense

Turns out springy things that work with BOTH physics and non-physics (e.g. animation) motion are a huge pain in the butt but I'm super happy with the result :D

Man, some lovely words in latest issue of @retrogamermag.bsky.social but nothing hits quite so hard as that nick shaped gap in the writers page...

Oh for sure I've worked with amazingly talented young people but I've also tried to hire young people and *oh my god*

I really thought by 40 as a software engineer I'd be either pure management or doing something else entirely due to younger, better educated people coming in but... honestly (sadly), I've never felt greater occupational security (the impending collapse of everything notwithstanding, obviously)

ohhh I love the subpixel effect! I did a similar thing to billboards in my game for no other reason than it was a fun thing to work on

Man this game really nailed the atmosphere (and hearing you're fan makes the Institution map make a lot of sense ;P)

I have to say gameplay-wise I really bounced off it at first. It took a speedrunner video explaining how the game really leans into an aggressive play-style to get me back into it

In CI, our meta quest deployment utility was complaining it was out of date so I updated it.

Now all our error messages are in Swedish.
