Something that bothers me more about that is when you use software that then didn't bind Redo to Ctrl + Y but instead Ctrl + Shift + Z so when you press Ctrl + Y who knows what might happen??

#gamedev ๐ŸŽฎ #dkgame : Yesterday I went to the Danish bi-monthly event "Dev โžค Test โžค Repeat" and took some pictures and played some games. If you are in or around Copenhagen, come be part of it next time! It's free and you get pizza!

I'd argue there is quite a difference between the Bush Era of politics where the train operator might be missing and Donald "I want to be king" Trump era hyper dystopian dismantling of institutions and democracy where the train fell off a bridge ๐Ÿ˜…

Kind of crazy to see an increase in Godot use by almost 100% between two years.

I have not used IndieDB since 2014 I think. I don't know how alive the community is, but at least from my own little sample size basically no players use it that I could find.

Might just be a bubble thing.

This controller won awards for most comfortable design back in the day, far as I remember. At least in magazines.

I loved the GameCube controller.

I think you missed the entire point of Luna's post.

If I see an episode from you on Monday next week, by the Cornflakes Humongolus I swear, the community will come together and lock you out of YouTube.

Depressingly reductive I'd say although likely easier to agree to disagree on that.

Many a study has pointed out that shame is an incredibly efficient tool to instill change in people and that shame can do a lot of good in changing bad actors behaviour. Although used wrong it will change the person in very undesirable ways. Hard to predict how someone reacts to it.

Doesn't that just mean there is a post-credit scene?

I think one of the things that makes dead ends meaningful is that it has stakes. If you can read through the book with zero stakes then I don't know that CYOA is the format really. But maybe that's just me not understanding 7 year olds :D

Hm. Well, if you play an RPG today on a computer, there are lots of dead ends. Just many more than a book could hold. Although old CYOA books are likely influenced by D&D 2nd Edition thinking which was notorious for killing people off with traps "for the fun of it".

24.07.2025 11:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

There is no proof they actually changed anything though. They take credit but like they already had rules for "obscene content".

24.07.2025 09:53 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Could do that although what is the hangup in regards to dead ends for this format?

I would also recommend Twine to write the book. You can do the whole thing in it and play it while you write and iterate.

It is often understood that there is only one exit to a CYOA book. Everything else is a dead end or a branch to possible dead ends or branches.

But it's not set in stone.

Not sure that's true unless your definition of "used to be" predates human speech. People have forming opinions about others based on others judgement since the dawn of humanity.

Not sure I understand the difference between "on Blender" and "for Blender" here. Can you elaborate?

Would even "Blender for Artists" not help some of this? Not saying your grievances aren't valid, just thought that maybe there was a way; www.bforartists.de

I am looking forward to seeing what Half-Edge is like when it's done.

I know I'd forget I put them there and scare the crap out of myself.

I have a feeling that Roblox is doing the same

Unity is still going big on AI. Investors are still convinced that AI will make the company boom. That's my take at least.

Reminds me of a joke I heard once about the aviation industry: Wanna become a millionaire? Easy! Be a billionaire and buy a flight company!
