Business strategy:
* Spend years making 650+ fonts
* Put almost all of them in one bundle
* Charge less than $20
* Hope the internet thinks this was a sensible decision

I know that I don't post my daily coding posts here, but I wanted to celebrate my 1000th day of coding.
Here, I've learned how to gradually zoom
I have come a long way since day one, and I will continue to code and learn for the days to come

Hey everyone! It's back! I'm running the huge deal again on all 650 of my commercial use fonts! Over a decade of my font output, at a crazy low price of just $19 (less than I normally license a single font for!) Cheers! :) hawtpixel.itch.io/hawtpixel-fo...#gamedev#fonts#indiedev#ttrpg#design

You in Edinburgh today? Come to Codebase and see some indie games at the Edinburgh College games expo. Meet some devs, give some feedback, make some friend (not me tho, I’m always grumpy).
Tickets are free, and you can grab them at www.tickettailor.com/events/edinb.... Or just turn up.
Oh this is fun!
Now souless shit people can create souless shit games within a souless shit game engine!
Maybe spend more time improving the engine and empowering creatives instead of jumping on the #AISlop bandwagon?

YES! Teaser trailer dropped for Rogue Trooper! I am SO STOKED FOR THIS. The fact that it's a Duncan Jones film only has me MORE hyped! Been a Rogue fan since he first appeared in @2000AD comics waaaaay back when, and it's about time he had a movie.

This is a fascinating video if you're into #GameDev or #programming... Using Signed Distance Fields to make a GAME ENGINE? Honestly, the results are so far incredible, and opens a whole host of new gameplay mechanics!

Spot the difference!...
One of the places getting more details patched in this week.
There are many things that need improvements, and an unacceptably empty area like this is one of them!

Testing and fixing some small issues
Also made it so he actually aims at the player
Keeping the projectile is fast, but if your the right distance and a swing when you hear/see the cue should deflect it every time
Few more things to do/fix
