@Game_Dev_Steve 😮

9 hearts leftover ~0:9:55 Anyone claim a 10 heart perfect yet? @danielben I'm pretty sure its possible on some maps, but I'll need to slow down more. Might write a map generator sim to check some probabilities I'm curious about, but I'm not sure I have 100% of the layout rules (and flukes).

@lukarizzi yo estoy para esa eh

@danielben para cuándo una copa futbol 5 de estudios de juegos yo a vos te veo metiendo caños

encima cuando le dije no no estoy para hacerte tu app millonaria se re persiguió con que le voy a robar la idea ahora wue me la contó eso es otra cosa que me mata amigo tengo cinco proyectos pendientes no voy a pararlos para hacer fulbolingo

@SwivelRevival hi! yes... it was a long time ago!

@danielben Hi, apologies for the tag, but, there's something I need to know. I've been working on a program called Swivel and we recently got it working under Air4Haxe. I just want to know if this was your work. Thank you - lib.haxe.org/p/air4haxe/

@sander_doug I'll make sure one day you have to come back 🤣

@danielben Great game! Finally claimed the everything-except-the-rat badge and get on with the rest of my life. :)

Dragonsweeper will now go into maintenance so only bug fixes and maybe a new stamp if there's an amazing idea. It was made in about 6 weeks It was played about 350k times so far It was especially fun to balance it collaboratively with its best players Let's make more games!

@lukarizzi los contratos de confidencialidad son estúpidos y garcas

gente que firmó un acuerdo de confidencialidad en la vida real: amigooooo firmé un NDA no sabés queda acá eh pero *te lo cuenta*

I'm looking for work! I love technical challenges and got a deep artistic sense, enjoy stunning folks with visuals AND coding efficiently. Worked on games, XR and immersive art, but especially interested in museum displays, music videos, science education. DM me! Love to chat.

Roguelike minesweeper game mentioned here is called Dragonsweeper. It’s made by a legend @danielben! It’s available for free on itch io (it’s a web version) so highly accessible! The trick is to carefully observe the board after you fail and spot the patterns! Cc @ThePrimeagen youtu.be/FBvB1MQis4Y?t=…

mega congrats @edmundmcmillen @TylerGlaiel store.steampowered.com/app/686060/Mew…

@edmundmcmillen wooooo

Oh…

@Kknewkles Plan P.

@danielben Might have to start thinking about Plan B.

I hope I'm reading this right and I will be able to keep loading local files indefinitely.

@rfleury since they are already in a position where they have more money than they know what to do with, why not try to maximize dev survival while they make mountains of money anyway

@rfleury 30% is outrageous and yes, I know steam is working to not enshittify like everything else and we are all doomed when gabe dies but

If Valve’s 30% transaction fee is so outrageous (it’s not), then others can simply provide alternatives and charge less. If players still don’t want those alternatives, it’s for a reason: the higher prices they see are worthwhile for the various services involved. So, the alternatives need to also compete on quality. That isn’t an “unlawful monopoly”, that is a competitive service provided at an acceptable rate for developers and players alike. A competitor can undercut that price, but they have to actually do a good job providing an alternative. It is completely absurd to involve the government to punish Valve.

@moepwellington can I make a game out of this one day?

npc

I want to apologize for all the unread and unanswered DMs on this platform but last November it started asking me to do some passcode thing so I ignored my inbox until today

@marce_tonic vamooo, la voy a ir a ver!

Les recomiendo fuertemente que vayan a ver esta al cine ("la única opción"/"no other choice"). Es coreana, del director de Oldboy y Snowpiercer. Comedia negra, me hizo acordar un poco a Parasite.

@Game_Dev_Steve 🤔

What the heck? I had an unusually fast run, but there's no way this was 3:42. Maybe I hit a rare bug? @danielben

@lukarizzi la cocarda de la que estábamos hablando tampoco es un adorno navideño, vas a tener que volver a hacer el cursito de boomer

en la oficina me re descansan porque una vez mi jefe dijo cocarda hablando de la decoración navideña y yo pensé que estaba diciendo coca cola como coscu. soy la chica de los remitos
