People being shocked that Pokemon GO data was sold to the military really just shows how little people understand modern data-as-a-service models... Everything is sold guys, to whoever is buying, it shouldn't be shocking anymore. Morally questionable? Sure. Shocking? No.

Just refactored all of the code for my custom GUI and Lua bindings to be logically grouped into separate files. I developed them each in single files for simplicity but they quickly ballooned out of control - things are MUCH cleaner now! #gamedev #odinlang #lua

Sometimes I want to post more of my gamedev process, but then I'm also just like, "No one wants to see someone implement drag and drop in a GUI for the 793th time." I don't even mean that negatively, more just that I'd rather wait until I have something cooler to show. 🔥

learning what "vibe coding" is sure did eliminate my impostor syndrome. like at least i know what my code does

I love TTRPGs as a hobby and creative space, but good lord its alarming how may unhinged people create content within this space... Being told not to buy a product (or having my own "privileged" price) because I'm white and cis is some serious derangement.

One of the things I find fascinating about the "you need to learn to use AI or you'll be left behind" crowd is that everyone I know who has been forced to use it has said that the only way to use it in a way that actually results in time savings is to know the field extremely well.

It amazes me that in 2026 indie devs still have to be convinced to support both KB/M and gamepad... Come on y'all, unless your game REALLY needs one control scheme over the other, bake both into your design early. #gamedev #indiedev

Rewriting my game engine in Odin from C is a breath of fresh air for me. Odin basically fixes every issue I was having with using raw C while still giving me all the benefits of a lower level language. Very excited to get back to work on my game in the improved engine. #OdinLang #gamedev #indiedev

''Ermmm it's unprofessional to talk about ''politics'', you'll lose followers!'' Oh shit my bad, here let me say this instead- Fuck ICE Fuck MAGA Free Palestine Trans rights Black lives matter I could give two fucks if people unfollow, i'm not here to surround myself by bigots.

excellent advice post that’s straight to the point. especially fond of the 10-minute rule, which is something i hold myself to for my own projects.

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

I don't want to "jump on a quick call", ever.

bite the hand that will not feed

getting increasingly annoying seeing people call videos with bad / not very well thought out takes "chatGPT scripts" when in reality some people are just fucking idiots and we need to embrace the beauty of human stupidity

Repost this to trigger someone who played emulators in the early 2000s.

Honestly so sick of Steam discussions being full of these losers, wish they'd do something about it.

no one should have to "incentivize" you to treat your employees well, jesus christ

Bring back proper games journalism.

we don’t get a lot of wins these days but if we can ruin gaming for Elon I’m going to count that

Happy #TransDayOfVisibility ! 🏳️‍⚧️💖 Most of our development team is LGBT/queer - it's always a pleasure to see our timelines covered in beautiful trans joy :]

It takes tremendous courage for our trans friends to be visible right now, so support them however you can 🦾

One day I'll get back to making game dev progress posts. Maybe. Possibly. If I feel like it.

The worst part of working on gov software is not being able to publicly talk about the dumb shit this administration is making us do... 🙄

It's hard to visually show off but I'm honestly so proud of the GUI system I built for my engine. The immediate mode API makes iterating quick, but the underlying state management keeps it efficient and makes it easy to hook up things like navigation flow (e.g. gamepad movement) around menus.

This gets enabled by default - you're gonna wanna go turn it off.

"i hope this site doesn't end up like the last one :(" Hope has nothing to do with it--DO YOUR PART! Twitter & Truth Social are dying. Their users are used to farming outrage for engagement. Don't give them any! 🚫 Don't argue with them! 🚫 Don't quote them! ✅ #BlockAndMoveOn

Really hope bsky prioritizes reaching feature parity with the core of what Twitter offers so it can really take off.

Fuck Muskrat purging my OTHER accounts and living here now

Eventually I'll post pics/vids of my game again, but for now it's engine building time. 🛠️
