@FreyaHolmer And even if you make an instrument with a slow attack and no release time, you usually still write so the instrument starts on the beat rather than ending on it. It's tough to intentionally do it the other way

I think it's interesting that most music played backwards has such a distinct sound, probably bc we're so used to sounds starting suddenly, to then decay and reverberate it's pretty rare for sounds to slowly build, only to suddenly halt, so there's this strong temporal asymmetry

@lorenschmidt I'm not a big shmup guy but I thought Einhander was great. I haven't revisited it to see how it holds up but Gunhed/Blazing Lazers seemed great to me in the 90s. Also Raptor and Tyrian are kind of weird PC offshoots but have some neat stuff.

i am playing a ton of scrolling shooters for reference. does anyone have recs? i appreciate both messier games which have flair (metal black, darius gaiden) and really technically focused, detail oriented projects (ddp, raiden ii etc.)

@winnersusedrugs Does anyone know what Phil Fish has been up to lately? I was thinking about FEZ the other day, and I still think that people were too hard on him. Playing with kid gloves seemed to really make Blow into the piece of shit he is. I wonder if Phil escaped that fate

I've been really liking Lies of P but this is a truly egregious piece of level design. The platform the red arrow is pointing to has a kill volume attached, causing instant death. This is made worse by the lit spot circled in green suggesting I should be trying to get there.

came across tweets talking about how a lot of the footage of feinstein rolled out is from ages ago and suddenly remembered she hadn't done a town hall since 2017

@FreyaHolmer Pretty much exactly my experience, though I still start to slip if I stop taking adhd meds or am feeling particularly anxious

why do I take melatonin? well, my options are: 1. take melatonin, get tired at a normal hour, and get normal amounts of sleep 2. no meds, lie awake for 3 hours, force wake at a normal hour, sleep deprived 3. no meds, go to bed when tired, sleep as long as needed, which leads to:

How can it possibly be legal for a company to retroactively add a "you owe us money for each time this server gets pinged. No you can't see how the server gets pinged" to a license??

@necrosofty This drove me CRAZY at the time and I still harbor some resentment towards 3d platformers as a genre because of it

@jaytholen I think it's probably a good approach for a lot of devs but I feel like if I'm not doing something at least a little idiotically ambitious then what am I even doing here?

i understand "i want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less & i'm not kidding!" but i'm never gonna be into making short games myself. i want to make a long game and i want to spend 10 years on it. 15 even.

With advances in evolutionary algorithms butterfly technology will soon be so advanced that they can perfectly reproduce an owl. Owls will be completely obsolete.

@ckunzelman Really? My read was I assumed Jupe was absolutely about to get his ass beaten by a chimpanzee, and because he never found out after fucking around he believed he had some kind of rapport with Jean Jacket that wasn't there. I haven't seen it since it came out though.

@Problem_Machine treat a chimp like a human? you messed up. and yet the final scene with the chimp whiplashes back to say that it's clearly not so simple.

Still thinking about it a couple hours later and obviously it's: - a good ole monster feature - a movie "about cinema" - a movie about responsibility I've seen a lot of stuff about the first two things since release, but I don't think I've seen much commentary on the third.
