It works better than I expected

Over the years I’ve tried many ways to sort color palettes. This is a compilation of different strategies: Hilbert curves, ΔE graphs, PCA, and TSP-style optimization: all trying to answer the same question: what is the “smoothest” order of colors? -> no clear winner: codepen.io/meodai/full/...

I'm old. If you're not, listen to this. Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder. Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever. It's literally never been more important.

Open AI loses copyright case in Germany. Judge Elke Schwager summarized the case saying that if you want to build something and need components, "then you purchase them and do not use the property of others."

Am I there? 🧐

I've converted the bitmap font from the Texas Instruments TI-83 graphic calculator into a True Type font. Get it and over 550 other computer and video game fonts here: www.thealmightyguru.com/Wiki/index.p... #TexasInstruments #TI83 #calculators #TI #TTF #font #fonts #bitmapfonts #retrocomputers

The Ubuntu font looks pretty good for low resolutions...

Hi eveyone, it's been almost 2 months since I last posted here (I think?). But I wanted to give you a fun challenge if you wanna join me: Making a character you like on a 32x32 canvas, that is the only limitation, here is a WIP of a Samus redesign I did on my style for the example!

trainer sprites i did in my spare time

If you wanted no leaks you should have gone into Settings -> Security -> Configure privacy & security -> Privacy options -> Other -> Configure -> Media interface and clicked “Disallow.” The Leak setting is on by default but we understand your privacy is important so we’ve made it easy to opt out

Presented without comment, just a deep tiredness

Everything worked surprisingly well, should I be worried?

I'll update a i9 12900K to a i9 14900K, from DDR4 to DDR5, and new motherboard (patched with 0x12b microcode)... wish me luck 🤞

Some people think game dev an indulgent hobby, but I've never worked so hard, risked so much, overcame so many challenges, or faced so many fears in my life. The level of expectation and lack of resources to live up to them is insane. Please support indie devs. We need it. patreon.com/cheekynauts

Do you have/know a good desk design for programming + playing/recording music (electric piano+guitar)?

It's so hard to associate an issue with a PR on GitHub using this field, you cannot even paste the URL. If the original description of the PR didn't contain something like "fix #issue" it will be really hard to associate issue <-> PR

i think if you want to get into pixel art, pixel dailies is a great way to start. make something small every day, and people will usually see it because of the PD community. when i was starting out, it was a big help to my consistency and i felt like my work was actually being seen!!

Game I did all the art for is launching in two weeks on the Switch. Also possible to pre-order right now if you're interested
