Started a new project to learn @ziglang by implementing algoritms. You can follow it at github.com/Koura/algorith… #ziglang #Algorithms

@pawel_developer Thinking of building a custom tile-editor, but this got me thinking if something similar would be enough 🤔

My autotiling system used pretty complex rules, because I hate to duplicate, where I can see specific patterns, e.g. a well-designed tile could be used, regardless if neighbour is grass, soil or rock, so my rules allow this and so is my editor for them now! #MadeWithDefold

@KissaKolme My own skills never went much beyond a heelflip

@om_nommy Thanks! :) this is kinda from an era when I had already started to wind down from more hectic/"serious" skating, prior to this I had a good few years of a break after breaking my heel :D

Something completely random for a change :D some fun casual skateboarding from me (circa, uh, 2008/2009??) for a fun skateboarding video made by my friends!

@zebleckAI Thinking of vibecoding my own tile-editor to better suit my own needs

Small tip for anyone vibecoding games: build the tools to accelerate your own process. Here you can see a vibecoded sound-panel (right), which allows to map sounds to events in the game at runtime. Simple refresh and the changes are applied instantly.

@ChShersh For me changing grep to ripgrep has worked when grepping was too slow

Here’s a real task from my job. I have a 100GB binary file. Produced daily. I can’t grep it. But I can decode it. However, I can’t store the decoded version either. It’s too big. How do I efficiently query it? Decoding piped to grep takes 2 minutes. I want 2 seconds.

@thecrimsondev So true. That’s why it is so important to playtest often. Then you get to see the real status of your game

working on a game idea/prototype is one big rollercoaster of regret, emotion, and contemplation

@kagaya_wqy 面白そう！リリース楽しみ

柄にもなく英語でトゥイート みんなたくさんリアクションしてくれて本当にすごく感謝、泣きそう オデ……ウレシイ… 今までも言われたけど、本当に世界中からカー○ィの画像が無言で送られてきたり似すぎだと普通に怒られたりしてるので、何かしら対処したいと思います。

@seezatnap Wow cool project 🔥

a lot of people asked for the code for the generative maps, so i'm open-sourcing it in the hopes that y'all can take it and vibe something cool!

@Icehelmet I see we both took the same master class

Me trying to do level design

@FR3NKD @3D_Ukko Time to start your gym arc

@3D_Ukko Everything hurts

Today I'm officially 30 years old

@mattgamedevguy FungalFront confirmed to run on it? 😄

There's something strangely satisfying about building a tiny game engine on a tiny 20 year old laptop

@TheTrueNemo @Phantom_TheGame Lingq has the right idea but the app is a bit janky. Still 1000x better than duolingo

@Phantom_TheGame Do you have recommendations?

Duolingo is a scam. It's designed to keep you addicted to the app, but your language learning progress will be slow as fuck. Find another app, I beg you.

@CodicsQuelloGay @Phantom_TheGame Nah op is 100% right. It’s much more efficient to use something like anki and get a ton of input with content that you like to spend time with

@Phantom_TheGame The only way to learn a language is to practice it in real life. BUT I'm not sure you should consider "a scam" an app that tries something impossible and does nothing wrong. Is it really addictive? I never got more than a 3 days streak

@awesomekling Those are quite sick numbers 🔥

Current progress on 2025 lifting goals: ⏳ Deadlift 5x175 / 180 kg ✅ Squat 5x155 / 140 kg ⏳ Bench 5x107 / 110 kg ✅ OHP 5x78.5 / 75 kg Plateaued on both DL & squat so I’ve taken a 10% deload and building back up. Meanwhile slow but steady progress on bench and OHP! 📈

@FR3NKD That or financial independence. Which ever comes first

@om_nommy Go full time after having success and not before, simple as that.

I recently switched to indie game dev as a hobby, and it feels so good... I can do whatever I want!! I don't need to min-max every detail and speedrun a 10 hours compilation of Chris Zukowski on how to market my game. And there's none of the stress of depending on your game to survive, every sale is a happy side effect, if the game generates like $1k is still a huge win. It's a completely different experience. And I can't wait to do everything wrong and have fun!

@FR3NKD I’ll try to keep this tweet in mind when I find myself dreaming about going full-time

@om_nommy I did it for 6 months and the project failed, I lost a lot of money and it was super stressful.

Is this how people really think of indies? You don’t include companies that are not owned or funded by a major 3rd party?

@mikko Best of luck to the next leg of your journey

Had a wonderful farewell party at WithSecure yesterday – thank you everyone!

I'm about to drop below 110kgs
