I'm just gonna AFK #Worlds2022. Could make dinner, eat, explain the entirety of League to my kids, and get them to bed before this 2nd game actually starts...

#KState has more conference wins than #OU and #Texas combined.

@RyuSoundworks Widely considered one of the most influential composers of the 20th century, this Austrian-American composer, theorist, and writer had a fear of the number 13 (a superstition that may have triggered his death).

who is schoenberg

@Pixel42_ @gulbrandr1 while (true) { move(cube); errorCheck(); fly(rocket); errorCheck(); } function errorCheck() { if (error) { cry(); burn(this); new laptop = buy(laptop); } else { console.log("wtf...?"); } }

What is game development for you? #indiedev #indiedevs #gamedevelopment #IndieGameDev #indiedeveloper #indiedevelopment #gamedev #gamedevs

@RyuSoundworks I feel so called out. Intentionally using only periods this reply. I no longer feel safe.

natural selection will weed out people who end every sentence with an ellipsis...

@triciaisabirdy @TFT

@triciaisabirdy @TFT Underrated build: Jade Guadians/Shapeshifter (Gnar with spatula). Heroic presence + Electrocute augments. Sunfire or thorns on Braum. Winning is great, but losing slower is just plain funnier. Quit hittin’ yourself! Quit hittin’ yourself!

Me: I rarely play games, I play to have fun Also me: Fills an entire notebook with TFT notes

Sure, winning is fun. But have you ever tried losing slower? You don’t have to be better than everyone else. You just have to suck less.

They did NOT have #Pokemon cards. But the kids got McDonald’s, so they aren’t really complaining. #dadLife

Heard McDonald's has #Pokemon card in their Happy Meals again. Hope our local one actually has them. That's gonna make our kids super happy. And maybe me (a little bit). #dadLife

During our game jam work, we got this annoying issue where we got lines between our tiles. The solution was super quick and easy: adding a sprite atlas. I'm sure others have/will have this issue, so I turned it into a blog post for anyone interested. gamedev.mitchellopitz.net/lines-between-…

@AimN When have you ever NOT given us good stuff? I’m looking forward to it. Really hoping you’re feeling better, Aimee.

Ok Covid. I showed you. Shot my first video since you grabbed me by the lungs and tried to kill my spirit. Good stuff coming your way. At least I think it is. I still might not be thinking totally straight.

@improvethegame @GameDev_RT Classical or VG OSTs. I can’t listen to anything with lyrics, though. I’ll start typing what I hear into code. Debugging nightmare.

Hey GAME DEVELOPERS do you have a certain type of music you like to listen to when your working I'm genuinely curious and I would like to know anyways good luck and happy Thursday! #IndieGame #indiedev #gamedev #gaming #music #gamedevelopment #IndieGameDev

@Sevenut @TylerGlaiel Beat me to it!

@TylerGlaiel That's my luggage combo

look the nuclear codes are probably just 00000 anyway

Macho Man had an incredible answer when asked "Have you ever cried?"

@TylerGlaiel Google tells the definition of Twitter. Twitter doesn’t tell the definition of Google. Just tested and can confirm!

some people really don't seem to know the difference between twitter and google

@kleinkid7 Candy bar and soda it is, then.

@kleinkid7 Is…. Is THIS medical advice? Unsure if I should listen to this and not take your medical advice or disregard because it’s medical advice and you told me not to listen to it.

@BerserkBoyGame Game dev league is probably my favorite. There’s drama from time to time (what server doesn’t?) and a few people are…negative. But overall, it’s a pretty helpful and supportive place. Can shoot you an invite later today, if you’d like. Not in a position I can do it now.

Are there any discord groups with a lot of game devs chillin’?

@RyuSoundworks Promising now. When I get to the point that I can actually hire people for a project, you will absolutely be first in line. If you like the project, of course.

I don't know if I'll ever get my hands on another JRPG soundtrack, but if I do, I'm gonna go absolutely ham on it.
