Do you ever take a picture of your cat and think "this reminds me of a painting"? I really should stop myself sometimes. #cats

Me and a friend have completed our study on creating optimal navigation path for velocity based AI movement, from a couple hundreads of tests the most optimal method used Phi* together with bezeir curves to create smooth lines for the agent to follow. #unity #gamedev #indiegamedev

The start of an enviromental enemy in the project me and my team will start working on, the boids logic isnt flawless but the effect of a large group of fish speeding to devour an intruder leaves an impact. #unity #gamedev #coding #indiegamedev #horrorgame

Being a sacrifice to the gods might seem glamourous untill you realize the fucker holding the knife is Jeff Bezos ensuring another record high year of sales.

Nice looking, using animations to stagger movement/inputs is very souls like, does it stagger on every damage type or have you considered a poise system? For smaller damage sources separating damage anim between full body and only upper body might be a good idea.

Writing my bachelor's thesis and looking at previous works from students is wild, some are reasonable at ~30 pages with 16 academic sources and then you find a 200 page beast with 3 pages of only sources. Some people are crazy. #university #school

For all those with valentines plans I hope you enjoy them for all of us who will die alone.

Grim (my cat) is usually silent but has learned that meows catch my attention, therefore whenever she meows I know that one of four things is wrong:no food,no water, filthy litterbox or I have been sleeping for 14 hours and she's worried.

Need to reset the algorithm and find some mutuals #promosky

Multiple credible sources claiming that a new GOP bill plans to rename Greenland "Red,White and Blueland". What the hell is going on over there? This has to be some south-park joke that went too far right? "Any reference in law,map,regulations .. Shall be deemed to reference "red,white and Blueland"

As a game developer I can confidently say that the feeling doesn't go away. It is an effect of the modern "achievement society" where any time not spent entrepreneuring yourself is perceived as wasted even if it isn't true.

Going through "the burnout society" again and I often get stuck on how he describes the modern persons need for self improvement wich leads to the inevitable burnout due to the standards set by that person. "Depression is the sickness of a society that suffers from excessive positivity" #philosophy

real nice, personally know how difficoult cling-jump mechanics can be to make them both look good and feel good, the animator in the projekt i had ended up with a very quick and snappy animation since our game handled multiple quick walljumps.

Personality quizzes are a dime a dozen but I gotta say the structure of this one is quite neat

Ah in a symmetrical setup its a bit more difficoult but one thing ive seen that kinda works is to remove linnear leveling and handle stat uppgrades and new moves like sidegrades or specializations making the average power of any 2 combatants equal stat-wise. basically give everyone lvl 100 mons

As someone who skipped Sunday I can't justify me pulling her but I'm happy for ya

That depends on so many other systems and decisions, games like darkest dungeon are resource based so the power of the team goes down the longer the fight goes on. For jrpg style a common method is to use elite style mobs that generate smaller mobs and have round based enrage mechanics.

I've been taking trains to get where I need for most of my adult life and today something happened that I've never before experienced: my train arrived 10 minutes early. I don't really understand how that can happen but it's a pleasant surprise

"if you have to sacrifice all my friends to survive then maybe it's time for a change"

Is this a reference to a game or are you living a much more interesting life than the rest of us?

I'm not entirely sure about the validity of that statement, it's true that action heavy games (apex,lol etc) will have a higher profit and playercount but in almost every other metric story-centric games reign supreme (bg3,Witcher 3,rdr3) they just don't have the same longevity since stories end.

It's always interesting with these doomsday gauges how often they are on the brink of "worst case scenario" while never truly arriving there. When will the coup be in effect? What will be the straw that breaks the camel's back? And is there a website where I could place a bet on how it will happen?

I based the shader on this tutorial if anyone wants to make a similar effect: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P33...

Figured out the issues with handling light with the full screen shader, isn't the best but its a good start for the project im working towards.

That's quite the shopping list of mutuals

Decided to share my favourite pic of Grim, was at my grandpa's since he needed help butchering a deer so she got a little treat #catsofbluesky

looking good! Im guessing youre using a blend tree for running animation, have you considered adding turning animations into the mix?

Working on a fog Shader in unity3d HLSL and am smashing my head against a brick wall trying to find why the fullscreen shader refuses to use all the additional lights at the same time. Has anyone had a smilar problem? it clearly gets and uses the point light data correctly,idk help is appreciated.
