I haven’t rolled credits yet (so close), but Well Dweller is an immaculate metroidvania. Somehow, some way, @kylethompsondev.bsky.social keeps on proving over and over he’s one of the best working in the scene. I know September has been and continues to be stacked, but drop everything and play it.

I killed that little birdie a LONG time ago 🤣 This is my last social media account, unless you could LinkedIn which I only have because I'm job-hunting. I'm done with social media.

As a trailer maker I enjoy having a producer as a contact on the dev team because I know it’s someone I can contact when I have questions and I don’t know who to ask (or interrupt). Especially helpful for scheduling multiplayer capture sessions and cutoff points (e.g. no more build updates)

Indie game devs - you need a producer. If you want your game to put coordinated and for the people in your team to be communicating well, that's a producer's job to facilitate! #gamedev #indiedev

Yeah, I was fine with the first one. Appreciative, even. But then to repeat your disinterest in me 4 months later... 🤣 I sure hope it was just their automated system malfunctioning

I applied for a job on Nov 15, 2025. They emailed me in Jan of 2026 to say they were going with another candidate Yesterday they emailed me again, to say they were going with another candidate. It’s part of their new “Twist the Knife” initiative.

NOW: B52 bombers are literally in the air on their way to Iran and hundreds of thousands of Iranians are in the streets waving flags and surrounding bridges & power plants. Difficult to imagine this has any precedent in modern warfare. (🎥 Al Jazeera)

TIL that #Godot lets you customize the icons that appear next to your nodes in the scene tree, by adding @icon(path) to the top of its script. This makes it sooooooooo much easier to distinguish different subclasses of nodes at a glance. #gamedev #godotengine

A screenshot of the Godot editor, showing a scene tree on one side and a script file on the other. The script file contains a call to @icon(), which specifies an image path, leading to an image that is rendered in the scene tree for that script's nodes.

For so many reasons, the least of which is not the horrible user experience... there's a special place in hell for the people who have "designed" (👈 apologies to that word) ATSs... Automated Talent Systems. They're frighteningly terrible at doing the only thing they do and their AI has no I. 🖕

It really does get better as it goes. Not that it starts out poorly, but it really gets going once the characters and lore is established. I’ll have to check out Star Trek, finally. Would that be TNG?

Sean James McKenzie @baconandgames.com · 07/04/2026

For the record, I’m making no comparison to or judgement of Star Trek. I know it’s intended to be a love letter to the series and I’ve even heard that many Star Trek fans enjoy it. I only state I haven’t seen Star Trek as proper context, because it seems relevant both to those who have and haven’t

Sean James McKenzie @baconandgames.com · 07/04/2026

I’ve never seen Star Trek but I absolutely love The Orville. It covers a lot of ground, emotionally, societally, and even comedically. It’s generally a feel good show that explores the deep parts of our nature in a fantastical setting. I did not expect to be as attached to this show as I am.

Merge, yes of course. Duh. Thank you! For the record though… could I also select the vertices that I want to comprise a face and “make into face” or do I just need to be more careful when deleting vertices?

Sean James McKenzie @baconandgames.com · 27/03/2026

You don't. The lighting is static. I'm pretty sure that the face just isn't there because I can turn on double-sided faces and it shows me the inside of the pyramid.

Sean James McKenzie @baconandgames.com · 27/03/2026

I'm loving #picocad2 and hoping for some help 🙏 I created a D4-shaped pyramid by deleting a vertex from the pyramid primitive. It seems like either now a face doesn't exist OR the normal is reversed (I think the former). Is there a way to "get that face back" so I can texture it? @johanpeitz.com

Ours lends VERY nice telescopes. My buddy's lends out bug hunting kits that teach kids about nature. It's wild the kinds of things you can get from a library besides books, if you just think to ask them what they have!
