that makes sense, thanks!! the buying demand in scotland is extremely competitive hence why i was confused how the hell a city centre flat isn't getting bought instantly!

yeah i've seen Miziziziz and... Garbaje or whatever his name is... have many that are that length, those are perfect. i think i feel bad because i got access to some chunky courses and feel like i should make use of them. maybe it's a matter of letting go heh

sorry if this is obvious (i hadn't heard of shared ownership until reading this)-- is the issue that the value of the property has increased so much people can't even afford 75%? or that the scheme itself has become unpopular?

i am most normal about this.... can't wait

that's really cool you've been able to set these up so quickly!

i think i'm still in that limbo where i'm not familiar enough with gamedev programming quirks to know exactly what it is i'm trying to google, but a comprehensive guided tutorial is really boring, heh.

the indie space is so rich right now but people are only exposed to the wildly lucrative edge cases. this year we're looking to showcase more games that expand peoples idea of what an ‘indie game’ can be

before or after adjustment?

Jacobbb it's so good to hear from you! a motorcycle, that's so cool... i need to have a good project-excuse to mess in Godot myself, have played around and it's great!

true. and there isn't nearly enough posting about the One Good Thing In America happening rn: moon

not a fan of half of my bluesky feed being current politics venting at any point in time, with no way to filter to just see what people are up to & making... i don't have the bandwidth for All The Horrible Details rn

i wish content warning folds were a thing on here. or, consistent tagging as #pol?

my mom recently started eating & cooking vegetarian, and when i was visiting, served a whole ass block of halloumi, very lightly fried. i had so many ideas for how to make it tastier! and that's when i realised... i have the Knowledge, for once

at last a flatgame engine for making simple walkable zine-type games! muhahah

i've heard good things about it! it seemed a bit too power-usery for my own usage tho heh

Theater/opera person, here: this is likely due to "bleed," which is a phenomenon we're literally trained for. When acting (or in this case, role-playing) a character for a good while and there are intense situations (such as an RPG finale), the emotions of the character can literally become yours!

Creating a Framework for Creating Rome in Tabletop Roleplaying Game Design Dr. Hamish Cameron will use the forthcoming tabletop role playing game Nefas as an example of how these games engage with Ancient Rome
