CrimsonStrife - Twitch Watch out for the fine print | The Outer Worlds 2 | !website !onemanspoison !tts !discord !projects

It's game night!

๐Ÿš€ I'm headed to space with #TheOuterWorlds2, I'm sure there's some fine print somewhere that ensures a corporation owns my molecules or something.

See you there!

On Saints Row we had a debug npc named Skinballs (lol) that was literally just four spheres wrapped in different shades of skin texture so we could test lighting for different skin tones during development. But teams need to plan for that kind of testing with intentionality, and not enough do.

Still not a functional inventory yet, a lot of backend work left to do, but I am using layered Render Targets in my #UI widgets to fake a 3D case, along with an opening animation for an #RE4 -like UI for One Man's Poison @ompgame.com

For @ompgame.com I've been making things harder on myself by wanting the inventory items to be "tetris-like" in having shapes. But this was the result of me gaslighting myself regarding how the original RE4 and even the remake handled it, they were all squares or rectangles.

I basically have taken to always working as though someone else may deal with my projects in the future, because that someone else may very well be me, 6-months from now, having forgotten everything I was doing.

I haven't published yet, but I have a developer account/license, and basically you get emailed ahead of the big sales to opt-in to them and set your pricing accordingly.

I have been working on the side for a while on my own project management app to use in-place of Jira or Trello, and now I've started using it on @ompgame.com, and even created a public API so I can show development progress on the game's website for transparency.

Would have to figure out a schedule that works, I COULD get up early on a weekend and play when you were this time but I would have to plan ahead of time so I could go to sleep earlier. It was about 6AM for me when I popped in.
