What's that? A *Sunday* #bevymergetrain? That's right: I decided that I wanna try swapping the day, so I can get right into the open source PRs that have piled up over the weekend <3 Join me in this little ritual, and maybe learn a thing or two about Rust or graphics? gist.github.com/alice-i-ceci...

#My9Games Feels like Hytale should be on there as well for the years of hype. Hopefully it will earn a spot one day.
My 9 Games:
- Minecraft: Java Edition (although, pocket, legacy console, and bedrock editions could all be contenders)
- Star Wars Battlefront II (2017)
- Mario Kart Wii
- Deltarune
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
- Fortnite 
- BeatSaber 
- Hades
- Knockout City (RIP)

I kind of crashed out this week. Generative AI has made a lot of my hobbies and creative endeavours feel pointless, when I'm not in a good headspace. I had a good conversation with a friend that helped, so I wrote about it, so I can read it when it happens again. www.joelotter.com/posts/2026/0...

Gustopher is drawing something at his desk when he hears a loud crash. Mewbert jumps up at the sound with all her fur sticking out and back arched.
 
Panel 2
 
Setting - The kitchen
 
Gustopher has run to the kitchen to see what is wrong with Mewbert right behind him. August is standing dejectedly while looking down.
 
Gustopher: DAD! What happened? Are there burglars?
 
August: No.
 
Panel 3
 
Gustopher excitedly tries to figure out what's going on.
 
Gustopher: Did something explode? Did a car crash? Did the toilet-
 
August interrupts before Gustopher finished.
 
August: I dropped dinner.
 
Panel 4
 
Gustopher looks down and only just notices the lasagna spread all over the floor and a broken casserole dish. Mewbert is by his feet staring at the wasted food and Nougat is doing the same by August.
 
Gustopher: Oh... This is worse than I imagined.
 
August: Yeah.

The indie publisher claims public trading has created a 'valuation disconnect that does not take account of the lifetime and long-tail revenue delivery inherent in the video games business.'

Pay the toll
Two panel comic. Panel 1: a knight in armor rides valiantly on the back of a dragon through a mountain valley. Panel 2: the dragon is sitting facing a wall, parked next to some cars in a small, dingy parking lot. The knight is straining slightly to shield his eyes from the sun as he examines a sticker-covered sign displaying the parking payment info. There is another one of these signs behind him that reads “parkTroll” and features a little app logo of a grinning face of a troll.

I've finally got cards with unique effects (and temporary visuals) in my Balatro-like card game made in #bevy. The effects are just standard components/systems, and the cards themselves are defined in config files and spawned via reflection.

Panel 1: In the foreground is Shen, facing away, fists up in a fighting position. In the background is a generic 'bro' in a tank-top, red shorts, and an orange cap with yellow hair, with his fists also up. He says "BRING IT ON, BRO!!"

Panel 2: Shen, in a low boxing pose, replies, "Okay, but I should warn you ... I'm trained in marital arts."

Panel 3: The bro taunts him, smiling, saying "HAH! As if any of that 'martial arts' shit really wor--"

Panel 4: The bro goes a neutral stance, his expression flabbergasted. He says "Wait, did you say 'marital'?" 

Panel 5: In the exact same expression and stance, the bro is now in a wedding dress at an altar, holding a bouquet of flowers as white petals fall around him.
