On my way to the gym today, saw this in the sky, pretty...although made me wish I had a better camera than my phone lol. Just really love seeing transitional moments like this.

Think im gonna make a better effort on buying more games on GOG. Having offline installers is nice, been burning copies of them on some DVDs. Will prob install them on my living room PC later.

Been playing through FFVII Rebirth...and I realized something. I don't think I like doing the side content in that game, but at the same time I feel bad skipping it as it has so much of it between story beats...maybe ill put the game down and try it again later.

Got a RX 6650 XT today. Was running a Vega 56 before, and it was really showing its age in many games, but still pulled through on some new titles. New card performs better, is cooler, makes less noise. Not bad for targeting mid level settings for 60~144FPS for games at 1080p.

Feels really nice in my hands, I sold a bunch of my old counter strike stuff so I only paid $42 in cash for it. Will never play CS again anyways.

Been feeling pretty weak lately and been stuck in bed. Days like this im happy I got my GBA SP, recently picked up a flash cart for development purposes but also been playing a rom hack called Pokemon Fools Gold on it.

Capcom released the old versions of Resident Evil 1~3 on Steam yesterday. But for some reason felt the need to bundle it with Enigma DRM...on a game that is 30 years old...honestly better off buying them on GOG.

Happy Trans Day Of Visibility. We live in scary times, but just remember you deserve to be able to live as how you feel, don't let anyone take that from you.

While the feeling of failure is deep for us Divers who were working to complete the MOs for Cyberstan, I do find the narrative more interesting that we lost it. And feel more motivated for when we come back to the 'Stan. #Helldivers2 #Cyberstan

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

Took me a bit, but finally got into playing Helldivers 2, been playing with my brother, basically acting as his support, distributing supplies, covering him taking care of the small dudes while he carries the big weapons for taking down objectives. Been nice to play games with him again.

🐵RAFFLE TIME!! REPOST+FOLLOW TO ENTER!!🐵 7 WINNERS WILL BE SELECTED! I wanted to thank everyone for all the support over the years so here's a form of thanks! I will end the raffle once/if I hit 2K Ideally!

Might sound silly, but living in a area that has dangerous weather has sorta given me a fear of sirens, obviously they are naturally discomforting, but each time I hear a sample in a song or in the background of a video I pull my headphones out to check if it is from the media im watching or not.

Getting into pickling, I always had a unhealthy love of them so feels good to try to make my own. Have bits of Dill inside of them, hope they come out good, but if they don't guess its a learning experience.

Ended up dropping that Godot GBA emu plugin, too worried about the legality of using the open source bios for distribution. But still want to develop homebrew games. So I plan to work hard at that, recently got myself a flash cart to test on hardware so that has been fun.

Been working on integrating a GBA emulator into Godot as a plugin, intended for people who might want to release a Godot game as a PC release. Got graphics and input passed along just fine, just need to get audio working then ill be set.

Very difficult to stay motivated on solo Deep Dungeon runs on FFXIV when a ISP hiccup can ruin them and waste hours of your time. Might give it a few more attempts...but man...this is discouraging.

Last post ill make on this, but here is a close up of the mod, posted it on the HM64 server if you wanna download and use on Spaghettikart. #MK64 #Ralsei #Deltarune

Rust type system has really got me on team static typed, to the point where I find it harder to deal with stuff on dynamically typed languages, but ill still do so regardless as I have projects in the pipeline that use dynamically typed languages.

Saying that programming knowledge is a mandatory requirement to start in gamedev is a rigid stance that can create unnecessary barriers and kill the motivation of those who are just beginning. #gamedev #indiedev #IndieGameDev
