Unrelated news, development work on command line crisis is on break right now. For the emperor…

indie game marketing be like

unironically, ✨texting war plans✨ is a big part of Command Line Crisis

Trying something new with loading / splash screens - what do you think? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #indiegame

me in the national security group chat

haven't touched the factory game since the space thing dropped... tryna stay strong bc we all know what would happen to the command line crisis if i fell back in 💀​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The terminal awaits … CommandLineCrisis.com

Command Line Crisis is Canon Compatible ✅ (vibes wise… but u could probably hack around to get it running over telnet if ur into that kinda thing)

my love language is 3d printer

thinking of adding weather events to command line crisis might be a fun complication to a nuclear standoff if a hurricane is holding your silos and air force bases hostage for a period of time

If you haven’t seen it before, this hour long video about the creation of the first 3D game on a home computer (Elite Dangerous) is a must watch 👏 #gamedev #gamedesign

finally got a proper site set up @ commandlinecrisis.com

I have lived to see horrors beyond comprehension, where the veil of sanity is but a fragile illusion against the abyss that stares back.

base building mechanics can either be fun and creative (Minecraft), pain (Rust), or completely maddening yet addictive (Factorio).

how to list this as the recommended hardware spec for command line crisis in steam ?

you will be able to play Command Line Crisis over SSH -so naturally im cooking up some very nice hardware USB FIDO tokens to ensure your access to advanced Cold War ascii simulation is secure 🔐

Planning to launch Command Line Crisis on steam with native Steam Deck support, so I guess I’ll have to get one… oh no… how awful… *adds to cart*

🧵 📝 thought I’d do a longpost to explain what my game command line crisis is about, so here goes nothing… ♟️ What is Command Line Crisis: Command Line Crisis is an ASCII strategy and geopolitical simulation game set during the Cold War. The world events are procedurally generated…….

in memoriam for everyone’s stonks, I have added a stock ticker visual to the game, so you can see how poorly your ascii economy is also doing

to celebrate bluesky upping the video length limit- please enjoy this demo of visual programming and vector graphics from 1963 🙂

with all the hype around the MCP standard i might give it a go for standardising the @commandlinecrisis.com AI tool calling it sounds like it’ll be useful to be able to define standard methods for the LLM to be able to pull situational data/context from the game database

microsoft is vibe coding a flight simulator using cursor, Claude 3.7 and three js ….?

definitely locked in today, have been cooking all day. now literally in the kitchen cooking dinner.

📺 very happy with the rendering for the game engine. It uses Curses under the hood for heavy lifting (screen refresh, buffer/batching changes) but has an abstracted rendering API on top with Windows>Panels>Elements that enable somewhat plain English definitions of any visual needed in the terminal

there is a cyclone 🌀 currently impacting the great nation of Australia All command line defence systems have been secured Our ASCII simulations overwhelmingly support making a first strike against “Alfred” with a MINUTEMAN II ICBM- but nobody is ready for that conversation.

mask off, 3d games have become dull and boring- we tire of roaming endless procedurally generated hellscapes in search of joy return to 2d, make peace with the limited & finite. embrace joyful boundaries

if ASCII and ANSI got in a fight, you know who’d win? � � � � � � � �

I refuse to believe or accept that there are people who use spaces instead of tabs in python space indentation is a psyop

biblically accurate Australia

Good news: I’ve completely stopped the screen from flickering 500 times each render update. Bad news: Command Line Crisis can no longer induce migraines for you to get out of going to work on Monday...

Dev update: I completely rewrote the screen rendering engine this week, which has been maddening but it's finally paying off now. The game engine can finally handle layered content, windows, panels, and custom elements like this 'ship marker' on the map. #indiegamedev #indiegame

Claude Code is pretty good, but my god this AI agent is costly...

Hi all, I've set up a #discord server for Command Line Crisis. If you love retro ASCII graphics, Cold War era computing, and strategy games - join and say Hi 👋 Play-testers and all retro nerds are welcome ⌨️👾 discord.gg/6HCgq6b5 #indiegame #gamedev #retrogaming #strategygame

the ai I trained on command line crisis’ codebase ended up with clinical depression and now gets anxiety during thunderstorms? I had to buy him a special weighted vest which has really helped a lot

sama: what if we make a model that’s sooo expensive that nobody can actually afford to use it or discover it’s worse than Claude at coding 😁 💰

is running a discord server really beneficial as an indie game dev? It’s consistently one of the top 3 things on the “indie dev essentials” articles, but I’m not convinced it’s always worthwhile? Interested to hear others thoughts / experiences? #indiedev #indiegaming #gamedev #indiegames

“for (int poo = 0; poo < silly; ++poo” might as well have come from the source for command line crisis #gamedev #indiegame

This HN thread is a great read for #indiegamedev #indiegaming #indiegame & #indiedev people.
