Visual Studio 26 dropped today apparently, 22 to 26 work flawlessly for my stuff. Quite nice to be able to see any variable's declaration location and jump to it or its type in a click. Not sure if it will work this well on a large codebase however, maybe I'll know tomorrow morning, or not, idk.

Just picked up that new game on the switch, wonder if it's good.

First screenshot from Midnight's "Murder Row" dungeon leaked:

I made a blood elf as my first character and hoped to one day get to explore a fully restored Quel'Thalas since my day 1 in the game. Noice. Sorry I've got nothing smarter to say tonight, except that the next few mouths before Midnight will be long.

This is something that would be difficult to explain to 10yo me.

In France, you believe yourself safe among colleagues, friends or family when suddenly, someone you though you knew will hold you at gun point until you’ve heard every new development in a legal saga involving two dudes and a car. They will then casually resume talking about wine, bread & cheese.

As always because of work I'm months late to anything WOW. But my god I'm only on the undermine intro questchain and these crazy music sample. How comes it hasn't been the talk of the town ?

My students objectively doing what I asked them to do.

This was a sneaky early career update BTW. Now they're at work, checking I'm not pushing shit to prod. Unfortunately, this also means they're not at home making sure I'm not posting cringe on the Internet.

A child is painting those little things. That child is soon to be 30 y/o.

There it is ! " easy enough for someone with no 3D experience, but it should also be powerful enough that players can surprise us [...]" Quite interested to see how they handled usability for wildly different profiles of users. Also great that there's no hard barriers to entry.

Peanut-Vanilla pie made last weekend to be eaten alongside Candlemas's crêpes, as the only thing better than a lot of sugar is even more sugar.

If someone told me I would hear an American president announcing the "Stargate Project", that is not what I would have expected.

Today during a lesson, I learned that a large part of my students were 1 y/o when the PS3 released. I teach at UNIVERSITY. Theses students where in their 3RD YEAR. I genuinely think I never felt so old in my life.

And there's the demo trailer for my small WOW inspired Brick Breaker BBSFML. Game and sources available on the github page, check the project description for the game download link (The link will be updated on there if any new versions get released). github.com/RedYggdrasil...

Added a little level editor to my brick breaker made last December, so this was the perfect occasion to add silly levels. Sources and Game are available on github : github.com/RedYggdrasil... I will probably also make a small demo video when I get the time. BTW, so hyped for goblin patch.

Redsap Rush : Another project I have been working on for the past year or so, in parallel to too many other things. Redsap Rush is a DirectX12 Game/Engine with Physics, Multi-threading, Mesh Generation, Compute Shaders, SIMD, Instanced rendering etc.

New York times' hazelnuts and cramberry tart coupled with 2 bars for Dubaï chocolate (upside down, still in their mold). This will be my cooking contribution to tomorrow's Christmas party with my familly.

Speaking of random projects and WIPs, as a teacher I often have to make small demos for specific lessons. There, I had the *moderate* pleasure of discovering the SFML. Spent half the time rewriting visual class & physic stuff. Nonetheless, my small WIP take on a brick breaker.

I've been working on multiple unfinished things for professional reasons, with nothing to show yet, witch is frustrating. So instead I'm going to post random stuff, like WIP project but also attempts at cooking and painting. Like this first shot at a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie for my sister's birthday.

When 2020 is coming to an end for the fourth time in a row.

It's so weird how Microsoft's Copilot is a tool that constantly try to engage in conversation with you using generic catch phrases some random youtuber might use to boost their comment section.

Frantically rewriting a more unified memory ownership tree for my game engine since yesterday night. No reasons in particular for me to drown myself in busywork at this particular moment of course. But if they were a point, it would seems than it is kinda working.

Every Single Year. As a programmer, as a professor, and most importantly as a Frenchmen. My life is nothing but pain.

I @gamedevlist.bsky.social , can I get into the list ? Thanks.
