My first new game since 2023 is coming Oct 13! It will be goofy/unpolished. This is for a 3 week game jam hosted by @birdrespecter.bsky.social and @junlper.beer. My goal is to understand Godot as much as I knew Unity for Anemoiapolis. follow me at q-andrew.itch.io if interested

Right now I spend most of my time making software. Right now I make 3d visualizers for sinks, mirrors, cabinets, sofas, and fans. It's a lot of work, so I haven't finished any games recently.

Glad you have someone to teach you! It took me a long time to figure things out without a teacher.

I'm so glad! Gamedev is one of the most rewarding things to learn :) Are you following the brackeys tutorial? I remember that the first video is a 2d platformer.

Happy September 21st to all who celebrate

I mean, it definitely does make me feel depressed when I read it

I'm 90% sure he's calling with an apple vision pro. There's no other way to explain that grotesque uncanny valley between his eyes and mouth.

Here in Michigan we would be so screwed. But I guess it would be good timing for the midterms...

Godot has a sort of global CSS that you can override on individual UI elements. Whatever isn't overrided can be changed later in bulk.

I still have mine from the last election, closest thing we have to an electoral lottery here.

Intentionally or not, I think Backrooms is about why AI sucks. A simulacrum of reality that gets worse the more it mimics itself. This theme writes itself! I wish I was smart enough to create such a compelling theme.

This is the Monte Cristo type stuff I get the urge to do after a setback, but I am impressed that some people actually follow through with it

Michigan is weird. Most of its populace is quite old. This means that up until recently, it was a red state. But there are 2 college towns that bring in a ton of young people, and a very large Palestinian American community. This puts pressure on the moderate candidates and makes them post like this

Bluesky has a maximum image filesize that made it pretty low res. Yes, this is real, you can see the full email here - politicalemails.org/messages/235...

Haley Stevens needs to answer to the allegations that her dog only likes people who wear sunscreen

Shout out to all the freaks out there who like UV mapping, but only for personal projects. You are not alone

Michigander here - thanks to Stevens' attack ads, I know that Abdul wants to defund the police. Thanks Haley

Kinda risky to bash anyone's actor choice like that, but I want to believe he thinks you deserve a better one haha

Absolutely. Most Elliot haters don't have taste though, they just want to bully a trans person

I think this is why this tweet stuck with me is how badly they missed the mark despite their convictions haha

"I thought he would maybe get better now that he is the person he was always meant to be" is so devastating 😭

Ohhh I was thinking of Hades the game

I just want to see what ungodly horrors lie in the source files

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Yeah. Unless it's a virtual novel, there's no way in hell they have anything finished.

Going there soon, which ones have the coolest drawings?

An excellent video by @jasonschreier.bsky.social about the economics of indie development - www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKND... The lack of single-payer healthcare and media grants in the US makes solo dev impossible unless you are living in a parent's house or married someone who can keep you afloat.

He's not wrong, the dot com bubble was starting when he wrote this, and it popped 5 years later

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

That would be far too rational for a company like Epic, but I hope for devs' sake they do

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Oh damn. I imagine the torch and pitchfork business is booming in Unreal forums

Blueprints are being deprecated??? Or just the optimizations?

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

I've started to think of Unreal as the Docker of game dev. A hulking behemoth that is sometimes necessary, but not for teams of less than 10 people.

Apparently Unity compile times got significantly worse too, but I switched to godot and haven't looked back since '23.

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

For kicks I installed UE5 to see what's up in epic land. Compile times and file sizes are horrific. How do people get anything done with this stuff?

I feel like games studios need to figure out that they have to afford a failure or two during their release cycle

AQ | Anemoiapolis Dev @andrewquist.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

Ah yes, I remember why I followed you now, will definitely watch

This should be the de-facto way people talk about signals, love it.
