Yess like Walter White turning his passion for chemistry into unlimited, perfectly crafted meth. A truly inspiring story โค๏ธ
HG leadership were trying to chase the same dragon the execs from Tencent were after. My heart goes out to the employees that were used to fulfill some dude's illusion that his mishmash of other games would blow up and make big money :(
2/2
Last words on this: You can't just blame the ~investors~ on this. These are grown ass men that started this company, they knew the deal. They tried to compete with established AAA games of arguably better quality and way better funding. 1/2
I honestly cannot imagine a world where HG would've had enough players to survive. I'm sure some people freaking loved that game, but the whole structure it was designed under set it up for failure from day 1 imo.
Lots of thoughts today on HG. Most people blaming Tencent (which like yeah fuck these vulture investors) but also, if you're pitching a live-service MP FPS at this stage, that is already a poor decision in my book. Sometimes an idea is bad, and moving past the bad idea is the way to go.
I love my girlfriend
Another reason to get off of fossil fuels and get behind public transit, cycling, walkable communities and more.
According to payment processors, purchasing fictional sexy art is grossly immoral.
Betting on school children getting blown up is fine though.
Today is the day I format my windows partition - fuck it.
Blindspot will release tomorrow, i arbitrarily decide.
I basically worked on this whenever i got stuck reading news that made me angry, so as a result it is a nasty ugly angry game. Fairly proud of the writing, art, and music in this. I hope you all get something out of it.
This morning's jam:
Morsels is an excellent and weird little roguelike
I better see yall there
Look we're just Water/Ice types now, okay. That's not so bad.
Cloister isn't so bad.
Cloister is COOL
But they won't be at Dirty Rectangles

Come and show off all your work. I know you finally got it doing the thing right. The thing looks great!
A little more work done on this little #playdate tetris.
Got text rendering sideways to account for the flipped display, fixed some rotation bugs & re-organized my project files ๐

Hey @zed.dev very sneaky to have the button controlling AI features a toggle *on to disable.
Not to mention resetting my previous json settings disabling your AI after an update...
The internet could've been so cool man
Lmao same here; found out the Canadian team won bc half our floor screamed 0.2s before my half

November can't come soon enough
Why is it so difficult to muster the strength to actually attend an event after work... I really miss going to gamedev stuff in TO but the trip there and back means I get precisely 0 time to just *be home* before I have to sleep and do it again
Crazy that Discord is doing facial ID for all after last year's series of protests and riots largely organized through Discord.
Surely what happened in Nepal last year and this are two separate, unrelated, events.
Tried playing control on my PC and it struggled a little @ 1440p...
This is a BAD time to upgrade ๐
