@KilledByAPixel cool

No AI. No Threejs. No bytes to spare. My new game is a 3D retro 90's fever dream that fits in only 1024 bytes! 🌈☁️ killedbyapixel.github.io/TinyCode/1K/Sk… Link to build with extra control options for accessibility (1k build has only mouse input)

@devsanddorks Three people know it exists :D

Did feedback have a big impact on your indie game?

@BecomingCaptain @Mr_meowmixer imo do a storyboard / borderline animatic! doesn't need animator skills, but writing for writing and writing for pictures kinda needs thumbnails, i think

@Mr_meowmixer Oh noooo! 🤣 I really do not have the skills for that. But I can certainly build a world and a story worth animating.

I wish I could do a sci-fi animated serie one day.

@zeelee3D 👀

okay so I’m very stoked on how this all turned out! It was delicious and my noodles were so good! Perfect bite & spring to them. I think I’m about to slip down a Ramen rabbit hole… Broth is onion, carrot, garlic, miso, shoyu, and some other random things. おいしいですよ

@ThatNgonGuy I presumed it was probably an internal joke about themselves at their height that slipped out in some interview somewhere... but definitely before freud it was ideas (from the) deep!

@ChimpSquared I think the "in demand" bit was just a rumor. A 1999 interview I saw with Carmack said it was the Freudian construct (and seems to be the most cited etymology)

Y'all know that "id" is an actual word and not pronounced "eye-dee", right?

@Viiksimursu1 @dark1x @Ludvicus because it is a modern game. It's physically based, it's HDR. It's engine is doing modern things. We aren't in a new paradigm, we are continuing the path that started around the start of that decade.

@dark1x @Ludvicus On the surface it does look essentially the same as modern games. It doesn’t look that out of place. The same happens in Shooters. BF1 still looks better than most modern shooters while also performing 2x-3x better.

Honest question, how is a 12 year old game absolutely mogging modern games in terms of graphics and lightning?? This shit isnt even demanding, yet new games require a 4080 to run at 60fps performance mode and yet still look like a potatoe

@ThatNgonGuy so all those people who think it stands for / stood for something are actually right, just not what they think it stands for!

@ThatNgonGuy fwiw the path was Ideas from the Deep, IFD, ID (In Demand) then id - and left it to associations with psychology etc.

not directly related, but the biggest crime in 3d graphics is using ACES

@KenneyNL I haven't really shared anything that is unannounced since 2013. And announcement comes when everything's largely in place.

I've noticed that I've become a bit hesitant to show the games & tools I'm working on. I'm often afraid that they will be stolen (especially because of AI), or that a cheap copy will appear before I've been able to finish them. Does anyone else share this feeling?

@DeTomPlays @IndieCurator 45 minutes is a fine number. You'll know if it runs on your machine, you'll know if you're enjoying it, and you'll know if it's what you wanted, and it's more than enough time to 'have a go'.

Exactly what I said on my reply when IndieGameJoe posted about it this morning: Have read through the comments and yeah, that's a lot of responses. I personally think this is wrong, it is wrong that people are exploiting a loophole in the system and regardless of whether it helped get the 270K of sales or not. It shouldn't be happening. It's little more than theft, costing the developer money, money he's earned by putting the effort into making the game. Refunding should be for when a game is unplayable, isn't as described and things like that, not when it's a great game that just so happened to be completable within a 2 hour window. it isn't just frustrating, it's plain wrong.

Hey devs, what do you think about this? I can understand returning a game you don't like, but returning a game you like... I'm not sure... The game's price isn't even enough to buy a hamburger.

@LB_domae @NAITOTokihiro Or rather, it is inspired by french and built with it's rules, afaik - it's a made up name from a work of fiction, as I understand it!

@LB_domae @NAITOTokihiro this is quite funny because even within english there's no consensus because it's a french word :) Some say it english (go-dot) and some say it french (g'dough)

「Godot」はどう発音すればいいかいつも悩む。多い（と思う）のは「ゴドー」で、俺もそれに倣うけど、外部の方と話してて「ゴドット」を先に出されると結構焦る。以降は「dot」の部分を「ドットゥ」（後半小声）みたいにあえてネイティブっぽく言うことで誤魔化している。「Tortoise」の時みたく。

@Gaming_For_Ages looks like a premium version of my childhood, at non premium prices!

I don’t know if this is particularly cheap for this pad… But I do know it’s worth 20 quid! Damn fine bit of kit!

@benjames171 circle it and put a note "i missed this, lol"

Spent all day making a trailer and compiling screenshots for Steam game page. Just noticed the mouse cursor embedded in all the footage #FML #justgamedevthings

@EliasDaler @llerradx Man, i miss that thing. i got the dreamcast keyboard BEFORE i got the dreamcast hahahaha. I figured if I got all the peripherals then i'd certainly get the machine from my fam as a kid :D i did :D

@llerradx Might buy something like this later, but for now my main priority is getting those cool original Dreamcast keyboard and mouse. 😂

Made a backend for Dear ImGui for Sega Dreamcast. I can’t believe it works. Sadly, I don’t have a mouse/keyboard for the Dreamcast, but once I do, it’s going to make this thing even more incredible. 😂

@wozat @thinkingshivers my game has leaderboards, and a crown that only one player can wear (daily, and overall) - based on score. could be fun for you!

@thinkingshivers I was so ticked off when the score became less and less important throughout the 1980s. My jam was always to get the high score. With SMW, once you got to the secret area, you could raise the score as high as you wanted. I had to rethink my video game relationship.

What was the point of score in old Mario games?

@TheEricanYT i.e you can do this with the 3 keys, without needing 4 if the middle key has the correct settings

@TheEricanYT this is what easing and curves are for but i avoid the whole thing and live in frame by frame world by choice lol

Here is one of the more important things I learned to make my animations a bit more expressive.
