Gamedev, 30-something, robot liker, low poly rat appreciator https://store.steampowered.com/app/2163160/OVRLRD/ Things I have made: OVRLRD; The Second Death of Daedalus Mole; Rapid Unplanned Disassembly; mistakes

The goal with this system was to give the destruction a sense of real heft and scale. Knocking over a building is a big deal and it should feel like a big deal! I also wanted mechs to feel dangerous, and being able to accidentally level an apartment complex fits the bill IMO

One of the funniest things about gamedev is Steam's emails about themed festivals. "a robot is not a train", "an apple is not a vehicle", "rain is cyberpunk" etc

Got in on the Steam Machine preorder just in case I got wildly rich by the time it came out. Making sad noises as I remove it from the cart. Go. Be free you beautiful expensive cube

It's such a shortsighted, idiotic move. I know they didn't actually block it, it's the other way around, but the costs involved in complying with CSA outweighed the benefit of reaching UK citizens. Smaller orgs are forced to block, and it's a death knell for any small scale UK based equivalents.

Just spent two weeks trying to fix an issue with unity's joint system. If you change the constraint mode on a joint in a large chain, unassign and reassign the connectedBody immediately. That is all thank u

Just had an initial poke around Parkside: Decayed Soul Manipulation. An indie immersive sim I'd had an eye on for a while. It's a bit rough-edged and might need a few patches, but it feels like an interesting halfway point between Deus Ex and Cruelty Squad set in the grim cyberpunk future of 2038.

I've come around on the idea of pitching OVRLRD to a publisher. That being said, asking someone of my delicate disposition to put together a Pitch Deck when I should be blowing dandelions, skipping, giggling etc. is morally wrong
