I'm still alive and building, going through one of those transitional phases in life. My dad passed away on June 15th and I have been his primary caretaker for over 8 years, daily the last few months. Then my car got totaled this weekend, and I have a new job starting soon.
Stay tuned.
The media did the same thing during Occupy over a decade ago. People then believed whatever narrative they wanted to as well. This is nothing new.
"Video games don't want to exist [..] Just by default, they resist existing. They do everything wrong. By force of will, we'll just kind of tear them into shape, patting them down, just trying to contain this chaotic thing."

No one claims that capitalist products or intentionally designed racist systems are "neutral". The fact that technology could be used to build both an anti-racist or racist chat bot actually proves that yes, the underlying tech is unbiased. Humans introduce bias into those datasets.
Added Tasks to the interface that you can select on your datapad, so it's easy to keep track of where you should be next. A little progression to keep players moving. #indiedev #gamedev #godotengine
Working on progression in the courier gig. As you work your way up you get access to better packages, and more incentive to steal and sell information...
In our universe quantum computing broke encryption eons ago pushing society back into more analog means of communication, like letters. #indiedev

Oh hell ya this is just what I was looking for
Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:
Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

This is a great idea! Gonna use this 😄
We have tons of updates coming soon for the Boundary Traveller. Development is accelerating as we've built a lot of the foundation for our multiagent sim and we've narrowed the scope of our 3D environment to deal with the limitations of most of our VRAM dedicated to the LLM. Exciting time ahead!
Day 2 of #BrackeysGameJam 2025.1! I didn't have as much time to work on it today, but things are forming. Got some simple audio. Made some more design decisions. And the part I'm most excited about, I started building out some of the lore/puzzle! Mini-games tomorrow maybe?

I found a job! Think I joined a crime family though. That's okay we'll see how much crime we can squeeze out of a gritty spacestation backed by an immersive multiagent sim. #godotengine #indiedev #gamedev
Hassling the on-duty Megafumi Mart courier for jobs yields nothing. Gotta find the corporate Courier department head who's got the knowledge and ability to give you a space job. Now where did he go?

Focused on early-game progression right now. There are many jobs you can do as a space hobo to work your way up to more illustrious roles.
I've built out Ranks from Ensign to Captain, are now distributing the right ID card access to NPCs, and working on the job dialogue. #gamedev #indiedev #godot

We have the best onboarding at The Yard HR Department, where you learn all the important items necessary to keep you alive on the Engineering Team. Just one more perk of working at the Yard, safety first! #indiedev #gamedev #godot
My son got me into legos again, I'm getting him into #startrek. We were lucky to grab these before the supply ran out. DS9 is a big inspiration for our game!
Our Cargo Trader program at The Yard is nearly done after another day of hacking. Trading cargo is one of the relatively easy ways to make credits and keep your crew fed and your ship flying. Gotta watch out for pirates though!
#ScreenShotSaturday #Godot #indiedev #gamedev
We are developing in #Godot for WIndows, Linux, and OSX!
Actual Prices and differential economy based on local manufacturing at each space stations coming next! With that and generative personal transport missions, we will have the legal and carefree part of our game-loop established. Once that is *fun* we can move on to infiltration and heists.
