Our blood sweat and tears went into this one. No AI, coded straight up from scratch with a new engine. I'm so proud to be part of it, and I hope you give it a chance tomorrow.

Is there a resource that shows you if you're on some blocklists? I come across folks on this website somewhat often that have blocked me. Now I barely post myself so it has me very curious as to what has caused this :/
Facebook Memories is a curse because it shows the kind of stupid things I was posting 15 years ago and is a painful reminder that that stupid kid is now supposed to raise two kids? Crazy.

This guy saw me fix small issues with Sokol (a framework for making graphical applications on the web in C) and decided that I was perfect for a job as LLM developer? What? Are the bots ok? Also there were only two! In 2024! I'm not even top 20 in Sokol of that year, how am I a top OSS dev?
You can play Portal (2007) and Portal 2 (2011) again. You can play Machinarium (2009) again. You can play the old telltale games again, you mostly remember the ending. You can play all your old puzzle games again. It'll be the joy you had back then, with a tinge of hindsight, mixed with nostalgia.

Teamfight Tactics might be planning to move away from a custom engine to Unreal Engine. As someone who's almost exclusively worked on custom engines throughout their career, this would be a shame, giving up engineering control and cementing a tighter oligopoly on engines from public companies.
When folks say they have 10x'd their productivity with AI, most of the time this is what is actually happening:
Some internships opportunities opened up for me!!! Should I take it?!
You asked, and we listened! We're really excited to announce the next evolution of our game The Knightling! Get ready for the port you've all been waiting for! 💙🛡️ #indiegame #gamingnews
It's kind of wild to have a kid that can point to mom, dad and siblings, socks, shoes and toys after 1.5 years of them just looking at you blankly after any query. It also makes me wonder how they picked up on it. How did they understand when something is a question? Having kids is very interesting

Now that the mod is working well I just wanna say huge thanks to @querijn.codes for his help with the Skyrim mod, without him you all wouldn’t have been able to chant “Jork” together on stream.
I dont want AAA games anymore, i want games made by a little freak with a vision
I've been trying to get a refund for my Nofio since April (before I even received it) because I learned that I was to become a father of 2, meaning that my VR room became a babyroom. IMRNext just updated me with this fantastic email saying that they might have a delay during the holiday season.
Facebook reminded me that 7 years ago @cristianpintos.com and I hit the front page with our game-jam game.
