I started archiving a list of #Tumblr #folklore into a Feather Wiki so I could read them without fear of them disappearing (some already have!). I have more to do (better attribution for authors), but most of the text is copied!

I'd love to add more if you have links!
I just want to continue living in the world that Skies of Arcadia presented. Like, that world is so cool and interesting, I want more games and books and shows like it sooo badly! Jim Butcher's The Aeronaut's Windlass has been the only thing that scratched the itch, and I want more!! 😭
I'm working on speed scaling in #Chompy, and it's tricky! I'm trying to make it feel like you're running out of time while also ensuring that it doesn't end too quickly but also being challenging to stay in the game, and I think I'm almost there, but I still have some values to tweak...
#gamedev
Does anyone have a #music #playlist of grandiose and bombastic adventuring music? A good reference for the type of music I'm talking would be The Great Sea from The Legend of #Zelda: Wind Waker!
I implemented jumping in Chompy tonight, which means we now have 2 buttons to press instead of 1, but I think it's well worth it for the extra complexity 😄

Similarly, I'd love a #music #playlist that makes you feel like a little NPC villager going around and doing their daily chores. If you have or know of such playlists, please send them my way! 🙏

Super sad to find out that I can't remap buttons on my new #GameCube controller for the #NintendoSwitch2! If I could just remap the top buttons to be the minus button, then I could have a fully-functioning controller for #Switch games! @nintendousa.bsky.social Please add remapping support 🥺
I did release a playtest demo years ago if you're curious! Not sure if it still works, but you can check it out if you want (desktop browsers only): alamantus.itch.io/chompy-playt...

#chompy
I've been trying to revive a mobile game idea I had 10 years ago in Godot... I got pretty far back then but struggled to find a way to make it consistently fun, but now I have some ideas 💖
#gameDev #mobileGame #chompy
Not Marvel almost making me cry in 2025 😳 #Thunderbolts was way better than expected and felt like an excellent return to what made people like the MCU in the first place 💖
I never realized it was like, an entity that could become bankrupt? I thought it was just like an event we agreed on
How important are hashtags on #Bluesky? Are people searching for them? Do they trend? Or are they like on Mastodon where it's just sometimes helpful for finding things?
I'm clearly not fluent in Agile to begin with, but this sounds like a much more enjoyable way of doing things 😂
I don't know how to do XP or gold, and suggestions of rewards for reaching certain goals feels a little...condescending? But maybe not?
Anyway, I think it's a fun idea. Add in classes for different approaches working and character level to indicate your seniority (i.e. Junior, Senior, Lead, etc.)!
By assigning tasks Difficulty Classes, you can use your ability scores to get an initial time estimate/how many people are needed! And classifying tasks as, quests, adventures, campaigns, etc, you can modify time estimates & priority (i.e. side quests = nice-to-haves, ambushes = surprise, etc.)
Some of the people on my software team are making a D&D-based alternative to Agile lol
I'm doing character sheets, and I this for Ability score names, but it needs to be relevant to QA, Product managers, & designers in addition to developers:
- Code
- Testing
- Design
- Insight
- Charisma?
- ?
I just saw #DeathOfAUnicorn and it's sooo good! Very gory, but it's an amazing horror comedy 💖 🦄
Hat with the words “please do not talk to me about AI I will kill myself”

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.
#Arranger is 50% off on #NintendoSwitch right now! It looks super "me" coded... Should I get it? Or should I gamble that it'll be on a steeper sale someday in the future? (I have plenty of other games to play, but I like getting games I think I'd like when they're on sale for future Robbie to play)
Sucks that timers only work when you actually pay attention to them

#FeatherWiki version 1.8.1 "Meadowlark" has been released! It includes a fix for adding images to the visual editor and an improvement for clarity.
Check out the details here:

The website has also been updated to reflect the changes:

Our little golden retriever had a great time at #goldensInGolden! It was very cute and fun but overwhelmingly crowded! The city could not accommodate that many people, and we had to park miles away 😵
We are all exhausted 😴
That being said, the default settings of no right click + reversed scrolling direction definitely need to be changed before use because those are terrible.
I upgraded my 2015 #MacBook Air to a 2018 MacBook Pro, and there's something incredibly *right* about Apple's newer touchpads. The ability to click from anywhere on the pad without lifting your finger feels just transcendent when you've only worked with touchpads with separate buttons/click zones.

By complete coincidence, a sample comic from WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase appears to be notably close in its plot to popular online game Among Us, featuring an imposter among astronauts and the verbatim use of the phrase "among us", a decade before that game was released.
Well, that's another year defeated!
But like in the way that you defeat the colossi in Shadow of the Colossus—with an ominous sense of foreboding and an uneasy certainty that you're doing The Wrong Thing even though you don't have any other choice
