Bikeshed request: What do you call "a thing that gets rendered"?
So if you have some properties for rendering a thing (color, position, etc.) & those properties vary per-thing. Those are per-<what> properties?
I want to say "instance" but instance has a more precise definition in rendering lingo.

Working on some new Scottish Mammal vector illustrations. Here's the first new one, a Red Deer.

Anyway having a nice day at work : )
If you're using AI to optimize your hobbies and to decide what to eat, you are genuinely spiritually bankrupt and I'm not sure what the point in you is.
Games Talks Live in Edinburgh on the 24th!
Say hi!
It definitely does accomplish that!
And if anything, me being pedantic about it just shows that the game got me in the right state of mind ^^
Still in awe every time I see this :0
The Prisoner of Flames
The Worldbearer

Maybe I'll post more here in the wake of Tumblr making a Bad Decision

Why does Japanese fashion skew so hot. Like physically warm. Like I have clothes from Japan that I can't wear in Scotland, in WINTER, because I get too hot...
Four rainbow orbs surround three floating 3D cows against a white, red, green, and blue colour test background. There is a smiling happy face on the left. Stacks of red, green, blue tiles on the right. Bright green text at the top says "Layout space!" while at the bottom, there is some janky text that says "space ! World"
the only thing that makes you more insane than game dev is engine dev
I'm guessing it's maybe a retro-esque set of categories?
Best I can come up with is: details(?), tangents/diversions, direction/goals, problems/risks
Vague as that is
"Once if I remember well,
I got myself sent straight to hell,
'cause France is shit and the world is sick,
and I really just want to suck some dick."
- Arthur Rimbaud, 1873
I think semantically this is an atomic phrase. I feel like in my experience when people say this they really just mean "I'm playfully acting indulgent to see if that's okay - if it is, I'll say thanks, and if it's not, I was just joking around so there won't be actual confrontation"
what I learned at Move
art-chicken goes further with art-spices; 2D animation looks cool at weird angles; animals are more realistic with puppy eyes; jokes are funnier if they bypass your prefrontal cortex; lookdev is easier if you can see it on time; the best way to learn color is to stop using it
I'll be at Move Summit today, say hi if you see me!
And it worked. So I guess why try to do anything different.
So funny as well, given yooka laylee's original anti-corporate-slop aesthetic.
I guess I shouldn't pick on yooka laylee - you can still play the original so it's whatever. The thing that depresses me is that they tried to fix every complaint they ever received about the game. They improved controls (good, valid) and also switched genre entirely to be mario odyssey (bad, dull)
i really shouldn't care what other people think, but the ubiquitous "they fixed yooka laylee!" angle is so depressing. they "fixed" it by cutting the soul out of it and filling the empty space with mario odyssey flavoured slurry.
Like it's _fine_ - but it's also kind of just nothing.
say hi if you see me ^^
I'll be at games talks live in Edinburgh
Not been using this account much lately but -
Low bar, but still
Game dev still on pause while I focus on health stuff.
In news directly opposed to that: today I successfully made chips that surpass Edinburgh chippy quality 😔
I just cleaned up all my old youtube subscriptions and... a shocking number of people I was subscribed to stopped uploading more or less exactly 1 year ago. Did something specific like... happen? To youtubers over the past year?
I really dislike the all-or-nothing way that media criticism works at the moment. I saw Weapons and thought it was a little disappointing and flawed - but it's really hard to find any take on it that isn't to one extreme or the other.
I have to _cast_ my integers to have them inferred as the correct bitwidth?? This is especially egregious when very common functions like strconv.ParseInt return non-generic non-default int types. So `i := 0; i += ParseInt(s)` won't compile! Batshit! Oh wait haha - it won't work anyway, because ParseInt returns an error that needs handled first~ Update: - `invalid operation: x += y (mismatched types int and int64)`. I don't want to hear another fucking word about Rust string types.
Why is there no shorthand for handling errors? Why do I need an if block _after_ the call? These should be one operation - otherwise that error checking can get moved around anywhere! And don't give me control-flow bullshit, I _know_ this language has `defer`.
Is every import an implicit '*' ??????????? So I have no idea where anything comes from??
Okay, I'm seeing a function being called here. Where is it defined? Is there actually any way to know??
lmaooo my old Go code comments are very funny to me.
I stand by them all, it is a bad language.
Love thaaaat, love sequentially downloading the same 30GB patch on all of my devices via my ailing stuttering internet connection, love stopping piracy in its tracks by having a terrible experience downloading literally anything
It's absolutely baffling to me that "download a big file without having to start over even if there are network problems" is not a universally solved problem, even though files are getting exponentially bigger.
post from our twitter. "pixel" "pedro" over here saying "loved everything about this trailer! i just wish the protagonist had abs..." and i said "what do you call these" and just posted beat's abs. just her abs. she got abs. they're literally right there. they're visible. right on her tummy. right there. she cut like a diamond. she got lines like a backer. she got muscles like the mollusk phylum, bro
this is why the economy is bad
Hello. I wrote a nice long essay about AI and this very strange moment where we're constantly told we're living in the dawn of a strange new future but the only thing that's actually clear is that everyone feels pretty unmoored and uncertain. I hope you'll read it
you can also use the helipack long jump in midair - which is considered a glitch, even though it makes a lot more sense than a helicopter that only goes up if you're on the ground.
game's all over the place!
