Making a game without an (established) engine creates a special kind of paranoia when bugs are brought to your attention. Sometimes it's an AMD input assembler bug in drivers from 2021 and prior coming back again and again. Sometimes I actually just wrote some bullshit. Today it was the former :)

I'm trying to get into game programming because AI is making its way into my job and I fucking hate it and losing more chances to code every day. I'm starting with Godot, but have picked up books on the basics game engines. You're to blame for that. You love this shit so much you make it look fun.

But also it's a lot of work. Very double-edged sword of agony and fulfillment :D

I think with my Autism, I have trouble using something fully without knowing what's going on under the hood. It amazes me how easily people can just start using a new package in coding, and a lot of times I'm over here like "Yeah, but what's happening under the hood?"
