I love learning about speedruns because they're always like

"the record stood for a whole year until 2 runners, XxDoritoFuckerxX and MLG_MargeSimpson_420 discovered a 30 second time save. It became known as 'fart clip' and is still used in runs today"

First look at Snowball, the main character in my upcoming game "Snowball's Chance in Hell"! Thoughts?

Me: What's this game's story even about? I don't know what's happening
Game: *NPC starts explaining*
Me: *Skips through their dialogue*
Me: huh guess I'll never know 😕

What do you mean? EA is a fortune 500 company. As in, one of the 500 most valuable companies in the US. It's worth $30 billion. That's a lot.

I'll take your Software Engineer job if you don't want it 🤚

Relatable. Usually it's when I get to the 3rd level of a nested if statement that I realize I need to rethink things 🤣

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 25

I just call it research 🤣

My greatest enemy is me from a month ago. What a doofus that guy is.

Sometimes I'll look at my spaghetti code and think how nice it would feel to burn it all down 🔥🔥🔥

Do you ever get the urge to delete your entire code base and start over?

They're annoying but I always forget to do them and then get confused when it throws an error in a different part of code

What VR hardware did it run on?

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 25

Haven't seen Dune yet but from what I've gathered it's about a guy named Nissan Al-Gaib going on an adventure with Zendaya where they drink their own pee in the desert or something and fight the worms from Beetlejuice. Also Jason Mamoa's there too I think?

Woah, 2006?! What did it run on? Cool that you were able to recover it.

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 25

I think it would definitely take a lot of thought and work to make it fit well and feel good, but it's also super unique so I think that's awesome!

Friendship with Beat 'Em Up ended, Eetumhup is my new best friend

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 25

That's awesome! I can think of so many cool ways you could integrate that into a game. Very unique 😋🙌

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 24

Yeah, gamers are sick and tired of rushed, sloppy games. These studios got big because they used to make games made with love and passion, not cookie cutter cash grabs.

The days of AAA studios are numbered, and it's a good time to be an indie dev.

EA lost $6 billon today www.reuters.com/technology/e...

WolfyTheDev @wolfythedev.bsky.social · Jan 23

It works really well, good job 😁 👍

I like to like things. I try to make my default reaction positive when being presented with something new.

Sometimes all it takes to find good things in the world is making the conscious decision to try and enjoy stuff in the first place.

That's awesome! The depth of field really adds a lot too. Is it a 3d world with 2d sprites or is it all 2d?
