Click the Shape on Steam Click The Shape is exactly what it sounds like: a game where you click a shape as fast as you can! Train your reaction time and aim for the highest leaderboard scores!

Click The Shape's store page is live! If you see this, I'd be super happy to get a wishlist even if you don't end up buying the game. It helps out a lot! Thank you! #indiegame #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #Steam #Godot store.steampowered.com/app/3847650/...

Reminder to everyone that you do have to clean the filter in your dishwasher. It will get gross very quickly especially if your dishes have a lot of food bits on them when they go in.

I'm going through all the stages of grief over here lol

Man I'm really bummed about how badly Bungie gutted Destiny's gameplay loop. It's been my go-to game with friends for years and now I hardly want to play it. They killed the power fantasy. No ammo drops; skewed difficulty scaling. Every fight is such a struggle and then you're rewarded with trash.

It does complicate things for sure. Putting on one mod is super easy and basically feels necessary for many builds. With 100 Health investment, it will feel the same as it does now. There are also other healing options among support frames and certain exotics if the changes don't suit you.

Oh no I'm not saying that you have to use it. It's just likely going to be your simplest solution. I don't actually think it'll be too bad considering how many orbs drop and also with there being more overall stat points available to invest into Health.

Basically, what I'm saying is: use Heal Clip.

100 Health stat is equal to the current Recuperation mod (70 healing). Recup now give 15 healing so, if the stat scales linearly, it's equal to ~21 Health stat. That's basically the same as the changed font mod, but worse because you can't overstat. Font is 3x the cost, but on chest armor instead.

So he shoots himself in the foot again by running his mouth. A true classic maneuver lol.

Ahh ok. I've definitely seen him get defensive before especially when his pride is injured. Bad code is always a weird critique to me because I feel like it doesn't matter that much? He doesn't make tutorials and mostly does solo projects. I'd be more concerned if he made banking software.

Yeah we can turn off the water pretty easily because we have a well. Siphoned out the puddles and had somebody come by the day of to replace the broken fitting. Took basically no time to fix.

Dude literally happened to us yesterday. A pipe fitting failed under the house and it was spewing water into the driveway after pooling 6 inches of water under the crawl space door. Hopefully you got yours fixed quickly!

I feel like if everyone who was laid off in the games industry in the last few years came together to make their own studio, then it would be one of the largest studios immediately.

You guys missed Wavesplitter. It can suppress after picking up an orb and has the same broken behavior with the overload trace rifle artifact perk right now.

I've been promised the separate times by managers at three separate companies that they're trying to make my position permanent and none of them could ever convince the higher ups to do it. Society has transitioned from capitalism to corporatism, but people don't know the difference.

Company loyalty is just one of those lies we were told growing up where if we respect our job then our job respects us. Another myth of employment is getting a raise without asking for one.

I always find it as the last comment on a reddit post that's two years more recent than the post itself.

Absolutely bonkers. I would work so hard for a job with some stability that I also enjoyed. How that's completely unvaluable to a company utterly baffles me.

As someone who has been shuffled from company to company for QA testing contracts (including at Bungie), contractors are the disposable paper towels of employees. I've had nothing but praise from any of my immediate coworkers and it literally never matters. I also bailed on the industry.

IT WASN'T MY CODE. STEAM LEADERBOARDS EDIT FUNCTION DOESN'T WORK AND I HAD TO CREATE A NEW LEADERBOARD. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm stuck between a 1.5 hour long tutorial and a 5 minute tutorial and somehow neither is helping me solve this.

"Technology significantly advanced is indistinguishable from magic." I feel this way about coding all the time lol. I'm consulting runes out here and the mad scribblings of a wizard from forums long passed.

Definitely true. Unfortunately it's not giving me any specific errors. It's returning a 0 instead of a 1 with no feedback as to why from the service I'm connecting to. Checked the documentation for help and I fear that something might be wrong in the project setup that's really hard to pin down.

Very specifically I'm trying to connect Steam leaderboards to my game. I can see the leaderboard, but for some reason trying to upload a score fails every time. It might be too specific, but I'll definitely check. Thanks!

The absolutely most frustrating thing about coding is following a tutorial exactly and having the code still fail. Adding insult to injury, those tutorials always end with "...and now everything should be working!" They really need to start giving troubleshooting tips at the end.

To clarify, I'm not saying you have to ban anybody that has a bad day and makes a scene, but it would be nice to be able to curate my feed or replies by custom user tags like "brings up conspiracy theories under scientific posts" or "drinks raw milk."

What I would give for a social media platform where we could label accounts with minor things "kind of annoying" or "terminally online." I feel like people know exactly how to avoid a platform ban while still being aggressively argumentative and lowering the value of a social space.
