Good to be early 😁
Probably the last time that MoruMatrix will be visible on @ludumdare.com until the voting begins.

Found some time to participate in #LDJAM #LudumDare this weekend. And I'm done! (Unless I decide to redo the music)

Behold!

Wrong account... That's how tired I am 😜
Must summon... energy... for #ludumdare #ldjam ...
Finally Friday and I'm completely knackered.. I wouldn't mind participating in @ludumdare.com again this weekend. It's been a year and a half since I last had time for it.. Just don't know where I'm going to find the energy for that.. 😫

Sometimes I go to test my game and I'm like wtf how did I make this?

How does this all like, function? How did I do that?

Especially since I built the whole engine. Wtf how does it manage to go so long without crashing?

#TrailerTuesday really doesn't make much sense to me...
How many trailers do people make for their games?
I've made one and it takes forever.
#ScreenshotSaturday makes more sense, just a glimpse of some part of the game in a pic or mp4

Anyway... here's "Of Mimas" 😉

Time for #screenshotsaturday !

Been busy polishing stuff on ACT 1 in Of Mimas.
A screenshot really doesn't justify the amount of chaos going on in level 5 of ACT 1. Almost didn't have time to take the picture before that turret knocked me out 😆

So... confession time... I'm actually still using DirectInput for my game controller support while everything else I'm using is crossplatform.
So far I've starting looking into Gainput and libgamepad.. Gainput is winning so far...
Anyone got any other suggestions?

Mini thread on commercial vs hobby vs "I don't have to worry about money" game devs.
The whole reason I started making commercial games is that when I was doing it as a hobby alongside my job (and being a parent) 20 years ago was just way too tiring. So I quit my job. I wish I could just do exactly what I want, but this will have to do until I have a hit (lol) and can chill.
