I spent the past couple weeks tricking GameMaker Studio 1.4 into comprehending 3D for a shooter idea I had The actual game doesn't really exist yet, but the fact that I got stairs, overlapping platforms, and 3D hitscan working in a 2D engine fills me with immense amounts of pride
sorry, code is fucking beautiful. its fucking magical i can type words in the thing and fucking TRIANGLES just appear ? oops i typed it wrong and the triangles did something i didn't EXPECT ?? now weird shit is happening ?? this is the best shit of all time. i was born to fight the computer
if your supposed skill is in ideation, and yet you can't think of a single way to make your game without AI generated VO? then you've got a pretty long way to go with your ideas if your only conception of "good" is "high fidelity/professional"

Wrapped up a 10 day vacation with my foreign friends today! It felt really special to be a tour guide for a group of people I deeply cherish, and for my home town no less! Anyway, check out this name card made by one of the guests!! The artist asked to stay anonymous - they're secretive like that~
