flow text fragments as external children using same container rules as normal containers => woot

Wait what the hell I’ve never seen this and it rocks

Have they read their own dialogue

Nah she loves this shit she just hated admitting it

Immersive sim designer lurking devsky: “I have a brilliant new game idea”

Imagine buying a $12-14 indie game every other day (and playing an hour or two)

They don’t taste as good as cigarettes but they won’t give you throat cancer either

Notice that this map is virtually unrepresentable using normal auto-tiles. The level of noise + width of the automatic transition through grass means you're pretty much required to use larger, smoother shapes – as befits an RPG, RTS or adventure game with larger maps and looser movement

Posting wardrobe goals without a place to buy 🥲

One good thing about the dual grid is that it forces higher fidelity.

Consider this subtile grid with a grass base.

There are 0 grass tiles in this screenshot. None of the visible grass is an addressable tile. It’s just the default transition.

A duals grid requires a more faithful representation

Note that subdivision of the dual grid is almost identical to subdivision of type normal grid. The same constraints and opportunities appear just offset by a single subgrid cell diagonally.

Without layers, the duals approach is REQUIRED to represent 16^(N-1) variations (4*(N-1) bits) — where N is the number of tile types which can blend together.

3 types = 256 tiles

4 types = 4096 tiles

Subtiles make transitions optional by providing default blending via base terrain

“The scare [ . . . ] emerged”

Wonder where that “scare” came from Mr. One-of-many-center-right-periodicals-with-unclear-boundaries-or-journalistic-standards

Yeah that’s how it was the first time I quit

This time I’ve only been smoking a few months, but it was straight back to a pack a day after the first puff -____-

We’re about 21 hours in so only 51 to go before it gets better 😅
