i get why it "works" in a game but i have no idea why people think it works in a *trailer* to literally just say "this game has you do the same shit over and over forever". i don't know if this game is boring as fuck but this makes it look boring as fuck
The secret to a balanced dev team is combining someone who doesn't play videogames because they don't like videogames and someone who does play videogames because they don't like videogames
Astronaut gun meme: Wait, it's all proxies and heuristics? Close enough
Mel appears at the end of the teaser. They're really doing it.
I love how clearly this shows off energy transfer - first yellow guy fully transmitted the force to the ground, so blue ended still; second yellow guy fell before that could finish, so blue still had plenty of forward momentum
This will make for some veeery satisfying tackle runs
this video shows why I've been working on foot collisions for the last year: the first clip has the old collisions with unlimited torque, allowing the yellow player to unrealistically recover. the second has the new collisions with much more satisfying stumbling and falling over
Carmaggedon 2, what a game
There was a faithful mobile port made not too long ago
Thank god for PTP
This is so cool, it's like an emotion system for music, except the music can feel the emotion called "underwater"
I know a lot of my followers here are artists and not game developers or such things, if you're interested this is a good opportunity to peek inside the cables and connections of how a game manages its music and sound, I promise it's not too daunting!
Another 300k civilian loot tables exposed by an insurance database hack. People are getting mobbed in the streets. Pray you don't drop any rares
I am dying. I am surrounded by my children and grandchildren. Clutching my daughter's hand, I sigh, and the sun crosses my face for the last time. My body explodes into twelve gold pieces, one leather gambeson, one dagger
These are the creatures summoned when I accidentally hit enter, after accidentally writing svnadmin load
How much would you pay for Darth Vader’s meditation chamber in real life
If it’s any consolation I barely played slay the spire 1 anyway
Ah then that drastically simplifies it, you can just build the decision tree based on all current information + information from an extra storage repository of previously revealed information
I will listen and obey
Hell yeah!!!!
Show the world your divine spark
everyone will be happy to know that my next game will feature 100% human-written code and no slop vibe coding
also the art is painstakingly human-made, because I can't imagine handing the reigns over to some aggregate generator
its also utterly insane to me that I'd ever have to say this or clarify it
like, what the fuck are people doing
we make games. we MAKE them. we don't outsource the labour to some idiotbox that was invented in the last 5 years
There’s a distinction to be made whether this is an agent or encoder but in practice it requires the same capabilities…
Thankfully the decoder can be very very simple, it could just produce a strategy guide or a walkthrough :)
And separately (I’m not sure how orthogonal it really is) it would need to be proficient in all strategies (turn order, synergy, multiplicative effects, formations, terrain advantage, healing, etc)
Then it would also need social strategy as you mentioned (theory of mind, fog of war, bluffing, etc)
It sounds like you’re describing a strategy package for a generic game playing agent, which would first need to be proficient in all the video game tropes first across genres (explosive barrels, quick-time events, rock paper scissors damage types, proc chance, yellow parkour hints, etc)
I made a crossword
Ha ha ha…
Whatever this is I would watch a 40 minute build breakdown video
@strangescaffold.bsky.social new planet idea ripe for the making
People need to remember this when they start worrying about "market saturation" for their hobby projects
