Recently finished another jam game: malarpuppet.itch.io/byteforce
It's like hacking minigame warioware, runs in the browser, please give it a try!
I think this is my 12th successful game jam? I might have a problem...

Is anyone else making a tactics game on bluesky?
I feel like they are kinda rare. Just saw @togeproductions.bsky.social/Kriegsfront is here and it made me think about it.
Surely some other people are making x-comlikes?
never update anything, that's how they get you
in star trek it came from nasa's space program where telemetry is data sent back from in flight spacecraft to ground control!
+10% for additive
1.1x for multiplicative.
multiplicative is also way more dangerous so should be used very sparingly
you should see another vet next time. dogs absolutely can get strokes, i lost a cat last year to two subsequent strokes.
i don't want to freak you out, i hope your dog recovers well, sounds like the danger has passed
i love nakano, i visit every time i'm in the country
bsky seems to have butchered the nice sharp edges on the pixels by converting to jpeg though, sad :(
Nothing too exciting today, just experimenting with applying a shader to areas covered by fog of war, to differentiate them further from areas the player hasn't explored at all.

i thought they expired after 4 years, mine stopped working on my latest trip
@ozone.birb.house I'm a game dev please label me

if you want the real experience in a gamr lorns lure has a cave level and it's emotionally damaging, do NOT play chapter 3 if you are claustrophobic

solodev life
it was gary gygax or someone like him. Yes they DID want to be encumbered, early tabletop games were about heavy simulation! early video game designers adopted tabletop quirks because they *loved* simulation, later designers copied them, mistaking a love of simulation for generically good mechanics
this is basically what rust is to c++
livers really are the best organ
if no organ got me i know liver got me
scifi pixel art revolver & assault rifle
screenshot displaying the revolver sprite inside the game ui
was gonna just go to bed but i figured the assault rifle would be lonely without a friend so i drew a revolver to go with it

looks nice in context, v1 had more colors but I found the silhouetted look of the minimal 4 color palette makes it look a bit nicer, I guess the contrast is more dramatic and appealing?
Pixel art assault rifle
Started work on inventory so have to start doing art again, behold our first inventory sprite!

as an engineer who understands a decent chunk of tech they aren't that bright *within* their narrow sphere of expertise either
even ignoring ai generation, ai upscaled frames etc in games look horrible! i've given it a fair go multiple times and in every game it turns everything into a vaseline blob mess with terrible ghosting!
australian english is english and we will fight you
spent thurs and friday deep in the netcode trying to figure out a bug just to find it's a character controller bug that looks *exactly* like netcode rubberbanding, and the fix is a change to air control code written pre 2016 this code review is gonna take FOREVER to get approved
may i recommend vintage story, it's kinda like that but actually designed well and is super underrated
Slightly old progress but I'm still super stoked I got it working, real time fog of war taking minimal time to update each frame. Next major task is getting inventories working.

no forgiveness sadly, godot forever now
you gotta speedrun minecraft, win a brood war 1v1, perform a BLJ in sm64, beat portal 1 glitchless, catch a shiny (player chooses which pokemon game) and clear minesweeper expert
