I can see how old folks get grumpy about changes in culture. I have to take so many breaks watching taking head videos; sensory overload.

I find a lot of YouTube videos exhausting because evidently editing style over the years has 'evolved' into any pauses being unacceptable. If there's a pause, you cut! And of course the awful 'cheeky' cut zoom often multiple times like the YouTuber is giving you an aside.
A glowing ring on a tv in a still from an old home movie.
A still from an old home movie at least 45+ years ago I was watching. I believe this means I die in seven days, no?
Ahhhhh if you work with ESP32 its variants this ESPConnect tool is flipping nuuuuuuuts - buy them coffee: github.com/thelastoutpo...
A Frasier Crane Machine.
I love claw machines, adding them to games is delightful.
They are going to be speaking at PIGCon here in Portland in May. Really excited to hear about their process! Really legitimizes Godot. Excited you have embraced it as well!
I suppose I could've spoilered that but you can just assume I'm shit at Google or perhaps I only used an LLM summary. I'll leave that a mystery for ya.
Reading The Raw Shark Texts & it, like many other stores/media, brings up the "every 7 years all your cells have been replaced" trope which I've resisted looking up because I like being a Ship of Theseus... & assumed it was less than true. Sadly I caved & it is wildly inaccurate as I feared. :(
The beginning of a month off. Organize a lot of digital life, and took a box of deprecated microcontroller and gave them new life with CircuitPython. Should be fun for some quick turnaround tinkering!
As someone that exhibited alt ctrl games at gdc for many years, I wish folks could've brought their kids too. It was fun for a minute forcing people in suits to look silly, but that's not what it was all for. :/

Didn't know about it! I'll have to take a look, thanks. :)
Hahaha ok I do think it is funny that both our games ALSO have tamagotchi devices and red racecar beds. Maybe they are in the same universe!
It's incredible how many people are using approximation functions as therapists. It's absolutely unsurprising how poorly this is turning out.
;)
Strangely "Maris" is missing amongst the prize pillows...
They could at least paint the eggs first.
Can't wait to play Dungeon Experience!
The Crane machine was a labor of love. A dumb joke I came up with that our narrative director championed, and engi, art, and animation all helped bring to life. What a great team. ♥️
A Frasier Crane Crane Machine in the game High on Life 2.
The game I've been working on for the last few years, released today!!! Please enjoy High on Life 2! Also, please enjoy the Frasier Crane Machine, my pride and joy. ♥️
Fuck ICE and fuck Nazis. My heart is with the wonderful communities of Minnesota, especially those standing against fascism.
Congrats Chris, good on ya! Hope you are doing well. ♥️
Mine is that our body parts have lifetime usage/bending limits. Me NOT going to the gym or worse, running, is saving up the functional state of my body so it won't fall apart as fast. Not going to the gym is healthier!

Baby Steps is my 2025 game of the year, no contest.
Are there smart watches for people that don't really care for exercise?
Yeah, email me from my website and I can send you info on how to get it going. A little command line but if you're down!
