Initially she's using Scratch - which makes it a little more difficult for me to help he since whilst I can obviously assist with game design and function logic; even though it generally follows the same basic flows. the block-based code sequences in that just look so very different to actual code!

My daughter has decided to start making a computer game.

Welcome to our world of suffering and pain, young one.

Embrace the gamedev, and it will embrace you (after chewing you up and spitting you our repeatedly).

I've moved the due date to 2026 as not going to release this year now - hopefully early in next year.

More time for you to get ready for space-faring shenanigans, puzzles and ancient mysteries!!

Thanks mate, I truly appreciate it. Motivation is a funny thing - sometimes you're full of it, then it can disappear for no particularly apparent reason... as long as it comes back, that's not too bad!

Yeah I know about the editor setting but think there's something else you need to set up before it works? I'll take a proper look at some point.

I've just released a new game - give it a go, let me know if any bugs, or if you enjoy it!

If you don't enjoy it, go use your time more productively than telling me about it! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜›

A very important point; I'm not sure how I moosed it.

I bow to your superior knowledge as an expert, but I do have a follow-on question:

If a flock of geese is called a gaggle, is a flock of meese called a maggle?

21.10.2025 20:28 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

My daughter asked me earlier that if the plural of goose is geese, why isn't the plural of moose, meese?

I have yet to think of a good answer to this.
