Sometimes, when I'm in the right mood, I make video games and art. Or something.

Made Celeste with friends, working on new games with EXOK and City of None. www.noelberry.ca
yeah, based on our stats, for like ~20% of your audience haha

also these lines feel very arbitrary and really dependent on the individual and their own financial situation so .....

I want a GDQ-Canada, I would go in a heartbeat, but I know it's just not realistic. I loved going to GDQ's in the past.

I caught this live! I hadn't really seen much smb2 rom hacks before, was fun!

Haha it's not, it's on a game I was playing and I just saw the review

I haven't thought about this in over a decade at least but now I really want to know

There's something really comforting sounding about just being able to set pixels directly from the CPU haha

I've been using the SDL_GPU api for most of last year - its very good. They don't support super modern things like bindless because they need to hit a broad range of GPUs... I suspect that'll change in like an SDL4.

Yeah I kinda want to try just for fun but I know it'd hit limits fast.... and I also just wanna finish games so I probably shouldn't lol

It's good to make art even when it doesn't turn out how you want! That's how it goes, sometimes
January 2, 2026 at 3:16 AM
Yeah it does feel like at some point it's just all gonna be compute... especially since, as that article mentions, games are not even the focus of gpu manufacturers anymore lol
January 2, 2026 at 3:14 AM
Yeah, I really like the proposed api in that article. I hope it goes that direction haha
