Me he puesto a mirar los call of duty, sabiendo que Activision tiene a varios de los criminales de guerra de USA al mando, para ver qué países tenían en mente. Pues además de estar la misión de Venezuela que ya se ha hecho realidad, Groenlandia... Sabéis que otro país tienen? youtu.be/9uUFsg3sU8E

TBF literature and music don't need to pander to steam reviews, or care about UX. Videogames are closer as a medium to architecture or urbanism than literature.

Today I tried more ideas to optimize the software renderer prototype for #Playdate and got it into playable FPS. I need to adjust the lighting since I modified the render resolution, it looks more busy than it should, but I'm happy with the progress.

2026 here... We... Go.

No sé cómo sobrevivimos a estos tiempos de salvado 😅

"Child pornography is now legal" - Elon Musk.

Japanese artist Hiroshi Nagai, famous for his illustration work for City Pop album covers (by extension the “city pop” aesthetic), has had his art used without permission by the official USA Department of Homeland Security Twitter account to promote mass deportations.

La vivienda aquí se utiliza como inversión y plan de jubilación. El problema no son sólo los fondos de inversión q controlan políticos, son todos los españoles que viven o esperan vivir de esa especulación, o pasar esa inversión a su familia. Quién va a querer perder elecciones por un imposible?

Otra ronda de PS2, con otro juego que no tocaba desde hace 20 años 🤓👍

Ending 2025 composing on my Yamaha, inspired by the awesome Myst soundtrack, I'm trying to find built-in voices in this keyboard that could work for an eerie, mysterious atmosphere.

Did more optimization work on my Playdate prototype. Still slow and the recording is using parts that are still not optimized (lightmap, edge draw, etc) so there's still room for optimization. I'm not sure if I will continue working on this next year... we will see!

Visto el episodio de hoy de Fallout y uf... Me están entrando muchas ganas de rejugarme New Vegas entero. Me lo guardo de propósito de año nuevo 😂

Hacía 20 años que no jugaba a este star ocean. Cómo pasa el tiempo 💀

Vamos a celebrar el fin de año con unos cuantos clásicos de PS2 🤓👍

Being against unethical real estate speculators doesn’t mean architecture or houses are bad. Likewise, AI, LLMs or genAI are fascinating and great. What we oppose is their exploitation by billionaires who steal and harm the planet just to add another yacht or private jet to their collection.

Something that blew my mind is when I learned that some of the box art we got in Europe is the American box art of a Japanese game, because for some reason they decided that Japanese art was not ok for them. And it's even worse how normalized that kind of fact is deemed ok by people.

Let's try to optimize my render and see how many FPS can I get on the Playdate. Right now it runs great on the simulator, not so much on the device (~4 FPS). I'll start with some culling and removing the extra steps I added while learning how to draw this...

Guys I was wrong, grok will get rid of all writers. You can't write better comedy than this.

Michael Abrash got it right.

I ran some tests on the Playdate to find out what the slowest part of my software renderer is. And as always with software renderers, I found out that texture rasterization is the bottleneck.

Casi nunca me hago publi porque soy tonta, pero regalad mi novela en Reyes, es bonita y emocionante, está llena de señoras estupendas y es apta para público juvenil. Está en librerías (si no la tienen os la pueden pedir) y en los sitios online habituales editorialamordemadre.com/catalogo/amo...

weee!! teleport!! #playdate

Tried a quick optimization just to check if what I'm trying to do is possible on the Playdate. FPS is still low but it's now playable and with the crank the rotation control is great. I think that if I do some spyro-kind-of-texture-mapping-optimization plus a better vis job it can get much better!

Anda Nikita con incontinencia así que le he buscado un pañal 😅 A ver si le hace el apaño...

That's my secret, Cap. I was always jaded by the games industry. Once you realize this industry sucks, you can at least focus on the things you like and ignore all the stupid stuff that doesn't matter. It frees you.

A therapist is someone that can understand, question and challenge you in positive ways so you can gain an understanding of your situation and your issues. These ghouls created a "yes man" bot that validates all their feelings and opinions without pushing them to do any actual work to be better.

I got my software render working (somehow) in playdate. It's using quake bsp for the map generation/loading. I quickly realized that in order to not have to work for months doing tooling it was best to just use community tools 😅 This was just a proof of concept, it needs to be actually optimized.

I just found a bug with the #playdate simulator I was getting mad because I couldn't understand why some textures wouldn't render with my code... Ended up testing it in the device: notice the big checkerboard texture missing in the simulator? Glad that for once it's not my fault 😂

El remake de Alien 8 para MSX2 es una joya que rescata la esencia del clásico de Ultimate Play the Game y la viste con un nuevo aire gráfico y técnico. 👉 pulsayjuega.blog/2025/12/26/a... 🕹️ #MSX2 #retrogaming #ultimateplaythegame #videojuegos

Ended up trying TrenchBroom and it looks exactly what I need. A map level editor that I can actually understand and use 😅

Me when the renderer code finally works vs me when I try to understand why the new stuff I added doesn't. Graphics programming is definitely my weakest point 😅

Maybe I should try to learn how to use Crocotile 3D, I bought it ages ago, but I confess I never ended up using it. Would I be able to use it as a level editor for a playdate prototype???

Lectura ligera navideña.

Hey cool web developers! If I needed a cloud server that can store and send messages (e.g. json files) via HTTP requests for a turn based online game, what would be the cheapest and easiest solution? Apart from self hosting I mean 😋

Women are usually the ones who have dependents in their care, the ones who suffer harassment in the office, the ones who benefit most from remote work. Companies love to brag about how inclusive they are but they haven't stopped for a single second to think about these issues. It's a boys club.

Someone asked for philosophy books and I recommended Terry Pratchett. They didn't seem to agree, but I'll keep saying it: Pratchett was one of the greatest philosophers in human history.

So I have some free days... Should I try to create a demo of this idea on the #playdate ? 😸

Pluribus last chapter no context.

El día q me jubile me dedicaré a hacer un vlog hablando de todos los JRPG olvidados que salieron en la época de 360/PS3, reguleros en muchos casos pero q intentaban experimentar con ideas raras y originales en vez de ceñirse al patrón de moda de la época, quizás xq no habia uno en esos años.

Ha llegado la hora del año de ver jungla de cristal 🤓
