@PierrePoilievre @joerogan Little late bud.

Ah yes, the classic "2 hours spent figuring out why I'm not getting a particular window message"... Wouldn't be a win32 interaction otherwise.

@EricLengyel Does this mean anything for my paid license in terms of publishing source of projects that usile Slug library? Im guessing not, but great announcement either way!

New blog post: A Decade of Slug This talks about the evolution of the Slug font rendering algorithm, and it includes an exciting announcement: The patent has been dedicated to the public domain. terathon.com/blog/decade-sl…

@danielcdev @eron_wolf @vaxryy Having to install Immich in a docker container is evil.

@Sydnus83 Sulphur would be better with 3d characters.

Little walk in my little indie game village

@wookash_podcast @TylerGlaiel FINALLY

Who would be interested in Mewgenics source code review with @TylerGlaiel? :)

@voxagonlabs Summary: "Ugh, the ideal way to do this is going to be unrealistically difficult... But it's the right thing so we did it anyway", repeated.

The Teardown Multiplayer project was a tricky one. It's finally out, and I wrote up the technical details on what we went through to get there: blog.voxagon.se/2026/03/13/tea…

@voxagonlabs Congrats Dennis. Seriously inspirational.

@theartistjulian A pixel artist I need but money I have not.

If there are any people following me that work at a studio that needs a pixel artist please reach out! I currently have only gotten 1 dm from this post that actually did numbers so simply a like or retweet is obviously not enough.

@Case_Portman good ad

I fucking love my job. #sounddesign #gamedev

@AffinityPlay See this video section for example. File hierarchy is never the best way to navigate assets, so hand-optimizing for that is total waste *if* the editor does a good job. I deleted the file hierarchy in my editor. youtu.be/dePFAcBLLpc?si…

@StefDevs It's definitely a time-consuming task, but I'm not sure if it should do it for me.

One of the most challenging things in game dev is keeping all of your assets organized. It's a constant struggle. 🧘🏼‍♂️

@rfleury It's pronounced *heavy plex*!

I’ve seen enough. Software and intelligence are in escape velocity.

@sssmcgrath I liked StartAllBack for the taskbar enough to buy it. startallback.com

What do I need to do to make windows 11 kinda sorta usable?

@wookash_podcast @DelaneyGillilan This sounds super interesting.

Tomorrow airs an awesome chat with @DelaneyGillilan! Here is the JS rant part! :)

Update: The same laptop just did the thing where it tries to burn my home down by getting really hot in my backpack. God damn it man...

@orsonscottcard The permission I needed to stop at #1. I loved it but I'm satisfied.

In my opinion, Dune Messiah is not a good sequel and not a satisfying book. While Dune is a masterpiece, ambitious and immersive, I found Dune Messiah to be ineffective as fiction, a real letdown. And when Children of Dune came out, I realized that what Herbert cared about in the Dune series was not at all what I wanted to pursue in sequels. So I decided to be content with Dune as a standalone novel and allow the rest of the series to float by, unread by me. Thus I am unqualified to say anything intelligent about the sequels, beyond, "These are not the books I'm looking for."

@jogamedev @BirdtekGames The honest advice in this case is that marketing is not the problem or solution.

@BirdtekGames Think about what's special about your game and what sets it apart, then figure out how to tell stories about it. Create content with those stories in order to communicate with potential players how it's special. Good luck to you!

Indie Game Devs: Your potential customer base is much larger than you think. Once I realized how this really works, it resulted in a massive influx of sales. Let me explain: For background, my spellcrafting game, Spellmasons, had plateaued for years and was losing traction when I recommitted myself to marketing. This resulted in my 3rd year, post launch, beating all the other years combined. Here's what I figured out that made this happen: - Your game is an asset you'll own forever - Everybody says launch causes the most sales and that's just not true for indies because indies usually don't reach anywhere near their Total Addressable Market in terms of exposure - chances are, indies will literally never reach every eyeball that might be a potential buyer, which means there are always more potential customers who would love your game if only they hear about it And even more importantly: New gamers are getting old enough to sign up for steam for the first time every. single. day. If I restart marketing in 5 years, there'll be 5 whole years worth of new gamers who might be interested. It's literally millions of new players every year. You'll never run out of people who are hearing about your game for the first time, no matter how viral your content is.
