watched some gameplay of metroid prime to see if that miles character was really as bad as people said he is. jesus christ. it’s abysmal. a perfect reminder of why i would never want to work at a major game studio.

my stance has definitely shifted on this over the years. sprinting isn’t wholly bad, but there’s gotta be a reason for it to exist. like a real reason. don’t add hunger or something to your game to justify it. otherwise, just make the player fast by default and include a walk button for precision.
I was watching a video talking about sprinting in game as a mechanic and it was pretty interesting.
He mentioned a phrase "I'm a lot less tolerant of games now than I used to be".
I think that sums up why I can't play bad games/ limit how many games I play now vs in my 20's.

i half regret buying a switch 2 bc idk when the next time i’ll actually wanna buy a nintendo game will come around. mario kart was alright, didn’t vibe with donkey kong, and everything since then has just not been up my alley. maybe i’d take more chances if they weren’t $70-$80 per game.

my current battle is accepting the fact that in order to make good video games, i have to allow myself to get comfortable seeing incomplete and flawed ideas through. it’s a bit daunting knowing there’s so much i don’t know, and that the best teacher is making amateurish mistakes.

i get the appeal of not having to draw your own assets, but I'd really prefer to see your crude MSpaint player assets. it's safe here, OK?
i want to see what your mind sees! i don't want to see your prompt instead.

i can appreciate the palpable annoyance in this post. glad they’re seemingly back up, too. we love itch dot io in this house.
I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

i’m all for being informed and all that good stuff but my discover feed being 95% politics after pressing “show less like this” dozens of times is really annoying.
