Since I recently mostly uploaded to instagram, I hereby pay my duty 🫡 The 3d trackmap I wanted to do since day one (which is a year ago by this point) It reveals the true shape of the track you are racing on, because from within the tunnel its not easy to gauge #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #ps1

So me sharing my phone number in a DM on instagram and today getting multiple phone calls from different countries is no coincidence - is it? 🤔

Wait, how did I not post about the interview with @phaser.io here? I looked towards unity and godot some years ago and still cant fathom that I just am able to continue phaser for my games big and small - what an engine :) phaser.io/news/2026/06...

70 Fußballfelder Ackerland, Millionen Liter Kühlwasser und ein enormer Stromverbrauch – das Google-Rechenzentrum in Kronstorf betrifft die Region nachhaltig. Es braucht jetzt mehr Bürger_innenbeteiligung und eine transparente Gesamtprüfung. Unterschreibe dafür hier: mein.aufstehn.at/petitions/st...

Jetzt unterzeichnen: GOOGLE Kronstorf. Wir fordern eine transparente Gesamtprüfung aller Risiken!
Der Bau des Google Rechenzentrums in Krontsdorf braucht mehr Transparenz und Kontrolle. Denn die Folgen für Wasser, Stromversorgung und Böden sind noch nicht ausreichend geklärt.

I dont envy backend engineers. Everytime I have to setup a ssh connection to a server (the same server, mind you) something is different. Nothing works. Endless config tinkering ensues. But once it works I feel like a fucking magician - or a Matrix Operator 😎

I hate the narrative around #ai; the "annoyance of coding", "people don't enjoy the way of creating music" or art Like wtf why are you so loud with your lazyness? Where is the fun of creating? The process of learning, the gaining experience? Its called development not stopping.

The tutorial is working ok right now, but what the people seem to need is somewhere to practice where to sit in a corner to be fast. That should ease them into their first race which almost everyone just wanted and expected to win.

Crash and burn. Sometimes you risk it, catch fire and run it into the wall. Other times your risk will be rewarded greatly. Lets hope for the latter, no matter what presses down on your heart at the moment. #resistanceracing #indiedev #gamedev #metro #racing #crash #psx #y2kstyle #lowpoly #pixelart

Samantha Fox; callsign Foxxy has a radiating smile, engine and deathly stare if you dont play along her rules. Do not undererstimate her, she is not moody, you just have not earned her trust yet. How donyou do it? Dont ask me, she does not trust me either. #npc #y2k #design #indiedev #ps1 #psx #ps2

D: But intelligence has nothing to do with knowledge. You can be very intelligent but know nothing. And such are the people we need for the rocket. Otherwise the knowledge would go to waste. P: You might know a lot, but you are not very intelligent. Because you are down here with us. *shutsthedoor*

Thats a good idea! because for the racing line I wanted to do something similar to your proposal, but as texture decals on the floor. The tracks are all set, there is no randomness, so I can add danger signs, props and different textures, arrows intentionally :)

Most pilots hang out at Café Stadtpark. It serves as a nice living room for most people who want to get away from the usual rusty metal walls, sit in a rundown room with grimey tapestry and sip on a warm cup of mushroom coffee. #gamedev #indiedev #ps1 #retro #npc #graphics #writing #psx #graphics

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying “ART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds “THEIR HUMANITY.”
