AI police here. Your asset sucks ass. So does your profile picture.

I been working on a game in the background. Another life sim built upon my ideas. Multiplayer using a headless server. This is my fishing demo #gamedev #godotengine

Hi protocol friends! I've been cooking up a Very Large PDS (vlpds) implementation capable of scaling up to billions of accounts and down to just one. It uses Object Storage as its only state, supports HA operation, live scaling up and down, is feature-complete with the reference PDS, and is FOSS.

vlpds.jazco.devOverview · vlpds docsAn atproto PDS whose only durable storage is an object store. Any node serves any request, one node can run a personal server for free, and a few nodes can carry all of Bluesky's write load.

Schrödinger's Run was a game I was working on not so long ago. I lost files and hope for working on it, but this remains. I made the PDA, KitOS, the inv/loot sys, it did have a map, artefact hunting. I cleaned up files on my PC weeks ago 😔 #GameDev #ProgrammerArt #ShrodingersBox

Magically fixed itself after a day... spooky 👻

Firefox suddenly unstable for anyone else? Feels like something changed. A few days ago it gave me some update notification telling me to restart my browser. Never had that happen before, it always did so in the background. Now ublock origin seems not working, chess.com is crashing etc

I don't think "mixels" look so bad (mixing pixel sizes in pixel art). I get from a purist perspective why its goofy but to my eye I kinda don't see the problem. Tell me why I'm wrong.

Are the anti AI crowd also against gamedevs using AI tools to write the code? Or is it just art they care about? 🤔 Like if someone were to not fully understand how to use vinterp and lerp nodes and line traces to make gameplay smoother and they used AI, is that a crime?

My friend made a cool game on a game jam and within a month a slopclone of it is on Steam. This is happening every day for indie devs and I hate it.

Another such case. Every day, an indie game developer making something cool and sharing is getting ripped off by these clowns. Original on the left. Don’t share your game - no sales Share your game - gets stolen

This is how people run, right‽ Turns out this rigged asset didn't have animations. So I made the choice to explore procedural IK anims. I expect it to be a challenge, but the in-progress visuals are cracking me up 😆🤣 #IndieDev #GameDev #SoloDevelopment #ProcGen #Procedural #Unity

I always wanted to give mobile gamedev a shot. Worried about user input and playability though... maybe I should stick to what I know and I don't really play mobile games.

I have been working on the floor 5 of the hotel. From this chapter of the game, you'll be able to explore the hotel without restrictions and go back to previous floors for items, collectibles and minigames. Here is the transition to use the elevator. #indiegames #gamedev #godot #pixelart

Did you know you can add arbitrary metadata to your commits without adding to the text of the commit message? git notes add -m "My-Note: true" abc123 You can choose to not push this info or not, it lives in refs/notes/commits

If AI is so amazing now why not use it to build everything on ATProto so we're not held hostage by 3 or 4 tech monopolies? You're not lying about how good AI is, are you? 🤔

Hobby project of mine in production is apparently using github oauth secret from a github account that I don't remember setting up and likely will never be able to sign in to again... 🤣

I used to hate shipping new features. One bad deploy = rollback stress + support tickets. Then we started using feature flags the right way. Here’s the exact approach that let us move much faster (and sleep better) while building Basestack 🧵

Only took like 2 hours to get everything working in postgres! One problem though is I originally set it up to use planetscale where you can't use real foreign keys (relationMode prisma). I can't easily change that without breaking my import scripts but maybe I'll figure it out...

Should I move from mysql to postgres while I still have a chance or a waste of time? 🤔

It would be a mistake to write off social media just because the big guys have pivoted to being content networks. #atproto has the power to make all media *actually* social.

Social media is no longer social. Most of it is passive viewing of videos and pictures from people we've never met. But we're still studying social media like it's 2010. We've entered the post-social media era — and research needs to catch up. osf.io/preprints/so... preprint w/ Richard Rogers
