im paying youtube premium not to get ads, yet i still get ads for "members only content" anyway. what the fuck, what was the point then?

and yes, youtube does get a cut from those memberships. that's why they push it so aggressively

one thing i hate about the modern internet is that every platform puts shit behind a subscription, but once you pay they go "lmao this idiot paid us. this means they are stupid enough that extract more money from them"

IM LOOKING AT YOU DISCORD. NO I DONT WANNA BUY AVATAR DECORATIONS OR GIFT NITROS

i mean, technically yeah? that's not the point of the switch tho tbh, i dont gain a lot from doing more stuff myself, i think gamemaker is a genuinely good base to work with

$80 a month. you need to have it to do any switch development. if it takes 4 months for the game, that's $320. that's a lot

Mors - OPERIUS DX IS ON ESHOP @mors.games · 2d

oh yeah, it's also straight up expensive. sure whatever, steam only asks for 100 bucks and pays it back, but to put your game on switch you need to pay for a gamemaker enterprise license, and it really is not cheap :(

this is the only thing making me wanna move to something like monogame

like yeah sure, i can polish up the menus and double the content in a month, and all the porting knowledge i gained from operius dx would make that aspect trivial too

but DAMN dealing with nintendo and valve is a pain. also marketing and shit? man, im already bad at it as is

i decided to play this again

ok you can kinda tell that the menus were a last minute addition since they are kinda bland BUT i think i cooked with the gameplay and all the juice

i dont think im still gonna make a cascadence dx tho, simply because how time consuming publishing is

Mors - OPERIUS DX IS ON ESHOP @mors.games · 16d

Cascadence, the game I made with @catonator.net, is out now on itch!

Arrange falling blocks into 2x2 squares to clear them from the board. Play solo through 10 unique levels, or go head-to-head with CPU opponents in some fast-paced block battles! #FallingBlockJam

Been really affirming to hear the latest videos have helped get new people in front of some great games. Us wee games writers and indie devs are in this together 🙏

*Which explains the somewhat sensationalist title as Operius DX is much more than a web game 👀

Mors - OPERIUS DX IS ON ESHOP @mors.games · 2d

these are all very basic clones of very basic mobile games, except with NO polish whatsoever. they all look like shit, feel like shit, play like... ehhhhh, they don't play awfully actually

i guess it helps in the short run, but in the long run it just hurts his credibility. even if he swears to not use ai again there's no way im even listening to something new from him ever again

man...

this is kinda crazy

the first album is literally a classic at this point, why would you taint your legacy like that? and for what? is he stupid?
