"This is WEIRD!" - Balatro Wins Debut Game at #BAFTAGamesAwards 🤡

@AntoniaRForster @playViewfinder ahaha, that's great! Considering some of the stuff we do earlier in the game that interpretation does actually kind of make sense to me! Hoping at least it wasn't easy to get it to crash, that level is probably the worst performing, especially on steam deck

Spoilers for @playViewfinder below... . . . . . . . . . . . . . Seriously leave now to avoid spoilers... . . . . . . . . . . Ok, ready? So in the final puzzle, you are told to escape the simulation by "crashing the system". My dumb ass took that entirely literally, being a game dev, so I started recursively spawning and destroying structures, causing as much load as I could, until the game was severely lagging, audio got weird, the game became unplayabley slow and I thought "it's working"! ...Until my poor Steam Deck died 😮💀 Luckily it switched itself off to prevent overheating (the real failsafe) - but I was so convinced this MUST be the solution, I did the whole thing again! Eventually I caved and Googled the (much simpler) answer 😂 @sadowlstudios - please tell me I'm not the only dumbass that tried this?!?! Also, aside from my own error, this game was flawless. Wonderful mechanics and gameplay and puzzles and soundtrack, A+++ and no notes! #justiceforcait

Just finished Viewfinder by @sadowlstudios and... I might be the dumbest player ever. Funny story and MAJOR spoilers for the game under the cut. LEAVE NOW to avoid spoilers. Ok, ready? I need to know if I'm the only person that made this error...

2024 is 100% complete! Thank you all for following, and have a nice 2025!

@andytouch Nice and cinematic

😎

@bumbleborn Congratulations on finally releasing a whole game!! None of us believed you could do it 🫡 😁

@AntonHand @SebAaltonen over 12 frames too ;_;

Constant time lights are really interesting. I really want similar tech for our UGC platform too... But it's yet another thing that relies on temporal accumulation. More ghosting issues, harder for history rejection to work due to added noise.

@bumbleborn What about the Oracle's red flags? Not too late to pivot into a dating sim

@bumbleborn Could also just change the game to be about flags though 💭

@bumbleborn Feels more like a flag and not a scroll 🤔

@bumbleborn Then why do i keep failing my math tests 😭

@bumbleborn And that's why some of them are wrong 🥰🥰🥰

@bumbleborn OK but you're wrong 😘😘😘😘😘

@willgoldstone Also, being able to setup/config specific playmode options for testing multiplayer stuff. MPPM is nice but I have to hack together my own "test in singleplayer" "test with two unity instances" "test in multiplayer but i'm gonna wait for a build to join" buttons

@willgoldstone ...it's a bit hacky, hooking playModeStateChanged and then setting isPlaying to false, rather than just customising the button itself. It'd also be nice to be able to customise the play button itself to show there was errors, as if they miss the window it's confusing not playing

We're looking more at future improvements to Play Mode in #Unity, what are your top 3 changes you'd like to see? #gamedev #unity3d
