mewgenics is pretty good

using a library that has a recurring std::optional<size_t> that is so cumbersome. I have to access it by a.value(), no but first take readings to be sure that a.has_value() == true. If I wrote this library I'd have just made UINT64_MAX be the 'null' value. wrap it up in a nice KIT_NULL macro

seeing so many callout posts of artists who clearly trace ai because they do x, y, and z. Nobody does x, y, or z. ...I do x, y, and z. I guess flipping the canvas is now a red flag?? I flip it 100x while drawing so I don't get too used to the image and miss glaring flaws QwQ

Red Vox's new album Retcon is pretty good

I have no ambition. gotta force myself to do something before I rot. Usually i have enough ambition to at least play megabonk or something but today I just want to go to sleep and wake up Monday morning

Rest in peace, Mikayla Raines and Finnegan Fox... May we meet on the other side... Wanted to draw them together; this pose is referenced from one of their videos together ...<3 #SaveAFox

RIP Finnegan Fox RIP Mikayla Raines

My new year's resolution was to not work on KitEngine, and so far I'm doing great

Lincoln is the best tmbg album

Watcher Campaign would have been good if Watcher could talk and say funny quips and tell you exactly what to do every 5 mins. "Wait... did I just.. enter ripple space with my FREAKING mind??", "this throne looks pretty important, I should peep back here later"

Relationship ended with fbx, KitEngine is switching to gltf

reading the source code of another engine to figure out how to import animation data from a .fbx file. Pleased to announce KitEngine's code is commented better (low bar)

I drew a dog that looks like bagelcollie. First anthro drawing in over a year turned out pretty decent I think (not drawing the legs was a stylistic choice, shut up)

finally got a drawing tablet after my last one broke a year ago

I should really add bone animations to KitEngine this year.

The world is not healthy

Would you still love me if I was a stoat? 🥺

They should add pipeyard to every game.

Use Linux!

Pack, i got so burnt out it's unreal. I have lost every ounce of the proverbial sauce. Sell your sand fox stocks now, gamers.

guysd its 2am and im soooo fucked up rn,. Writing asynchronous networking code for KitEngine is one of the purest forms of hell, I'll never recover.

What do you call a border collie with invisibility? A margin collie

the ball (pearl) now glows. the color is easily changeable. might make it random (from a pool of colors)

golf

at the exterior_walled club straight up golfin it, and by it? haha, well lets justr say my untextured quad

jank ass collision, fuckass stupid chud collision. STOP STICKING TO THE WALLS YOU ARE FUMBLING BRO

I'm adding golf to my Rain World Room Viewer. before I get DMCA'd and beaten to a pulp; I would like to make it clear that this program has a 570kb resources file. all Rain World assets are being read directly out of Rain World's install folder.

I un-fucked the video drivers on my Windows laptop. we are so back, I can actually run vulkan applications now until the next win11 update decides to brick it again.

some progress on one of the new enemies i've been working on for my game, #DISENCHANTED! it's a sort of demon, ghost dog thing that leaps at the player and tries to take a bite out of em. i don't have a proper name for the enemy yet, feel free to suggest one! #gamedev #godot

Famine is when you sit down to eat dinner but none of the youtubers you're subscribed to have uploaded a video all week.

Cinnamon desktops do not like QT dialogs. At all.

Everyone boycotting games because they used ai placeholders or concept art should try boycotting windows too

my top 2 games this year are Rain World and Megabonk. there is not a top third because those are basically the only two games I played all year

Secret 5th option is just give the artist a basic idea and otherwise complete creative freedom because they'll come up with something way better than you ever imagined.

Me trying the downvoted answer on stackoverflow because it's the only one I can comprehend

yea

I wonder how much more I'd accomplish if i wasn't adamant on using the world's worst programming language for everything

It's insane, I think I know exactly what the "gnight gamer" line in Rain World is referencing but I'll likely never get confirmation. And telling the story would make false positives possible, as it was an event that happened in a D2 LFG voice chat 6-8 years ago.

Wow I actually finished something (to the point of being able to release it, I am going to continue working on it) My #RainWorld Live Room Preview program can be downloaded from the modding-resources channel in the official Rain World Discord server.

It was actually some weird AMD vulkan driver (shitty iGPU flavor) that would mark a window as un-minimized *before* the window had dimensions greater than zero.

KitEngine has this cool bug on a very specific laptop where if you minimize the window it will freeze. I'm just trying to install vs so I can pause the process and see exactly where it gets hung, but vs is taking actual hours to install an update

imagine if installing visual studio community 2022 didn't take an entire hour

If a problem is improved by sleeping, it's probably a race condition. If it's a race condition, then sleeping is never a correct solution to the problem... you're just making it less likely to happen, not fixing it... fixupx.com/i/status/199...

The every alternate windows theory

I fell for a rage bait post.. age is catching up to me

Why the fuck does this look like a little big planet loading screen

The true watcher ending was insane, especially the very end where its revealed that all of it was a Family Guy cutaway

I genuinely had a nightmare that I was writing a shader but any change I made to it would never affect the output and it was pissing me off.
