Yooo great lines

I learned everything using w3schools, and I still use them to look things up like css selectors. Their docs are direct and to the point and much less technical and overwrought than the moz documentation.

I've got a newsletter coming out on Monday (6pm, your local time) talking about the freelance work I've been doing for Paper Animal Adventure, StoneStory, No Players Online and my various game jams.

What's the COGS problem?

Somewhere in Japan in 1989, some guy was working overtime on an animation thinking "wow this is going to look incredible when it's a couple of inches wide, posted without credit by a Twitter aesthetic bot"

Wow and it makes it into ice? Or do you put in ice and it breaks it down?

Is this... textmode?? ❤️❤️❤️

Most of commercial work is finding ways to make repeatable results quickly. Take notes on how you use colour, rules for pixels, and instructions for the tools and processes you use. Good luck! :D

Are slushie machines difficult to operate? How do they work?

I think I saw a video of it on your feed - so impressive, and it looks relatively lag free!

Ohhh this is the app I heard about! Still so behind on work that I haven't got to try it yet. Looking forward to see what others make.

We put an easteregg into mudwarriors with an eldrich horror. I forget how exactly to access it but it involved collecting coin pieces hidden in the mud. Not exactly what you were looking for, but it just occurred to me on reading your post.

Wow excellent, thanks bbbbbr!

look at him go

...and apparently it won't even let me post to my profile unless I'm on a v pñ, so that's cool.

The UK internet ban has reached bluesky. I'm not providing all my information to a company so they can leak it or sell it in a year, so if you want to message me and get a reliable response please use the contact form on my website.

No, the sample played differently on different hardware and emulators. On one you could have the perfect crunchy sound, on the other it would be accompanied by a screech or a bleep. There was a way around it but it was too much to handle in the last four hours of the jam.

I certainly remember recording them. It's possible when we got to implementation the audio was too crackly and we decided to leave it out. It was during the very early days of gbstudio's inclusion of the feature. I apologise, it was a long time ago.

For gbjam one year we made "potbound" which had voice lines recorded for the onion when he got hurt. That was a great jam.

Wow it looks awesome. Well done Dom!

Yes sorry, my eye of Sauron is currently burning intensely to the West and the land of men, where a particularly interesting battle is happening.

The character depicted is Thor holding his hammer and fighting the Midgard serpent Jörmungandr. The style reminds me of Hagar the horrible.

Look at Thor's left hand and the metal spike that leads to a scribbled mess in the serpent's mouth - I'm pretty sure it's AI.

As they're gem dragons I'd imagine it's geomancy / electrostatic / gravity. Something suitably earthy.

With the dragon itself being the hoard and with them living so long, I imagine pieces go missing like a 90s Action Man in a jumble sale.

Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

Hooting!
