I lean towards this. Give the other two a number but not the first

I’ve been under 3 other times, one was another bit of dental work at a different location years ago and that went perfect, another for wisdom teeth removal that also went perfect, and recently an endoscopy that also went perfect. I’m not sure why I’m suddenly having an issue.

Like are they even using real anesthesia? Or are yall just bonking me on the head with a hammer when I’m not looking and hoping for the same result? I shouldn’t be doing literally anything under anesthesia bro

This is now the second time I’ve been put fully under anesthesia for dental work and had the appointment end early because somehow I’m fighting them. How the fuck is that possible…

Even if your characters movement is fun and enjoyable, it can make your deving hell. Be sure how your character plays is worth it and you’re actually comfortable designing for it, as it will potentially make your job much much harder

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

I guess a takeaway from this is your level design will get better over time but you have to be willing to let it take that time, but also, be VERY careful with your characters moveset.

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

Another thing that makes it one of my best I think is that unfortunately Zeras moveset is a nightmare to design for by comparison. Every wall needs to be twice as tall, every jump is nearly trivial, everything needs to be bigger and more open due to her speed. Ghost Witch doesn’t have this problem.

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

One being time, it’s one of the most recent things I’ve made so I’ve just progressed a lot since the early days. I also planned and blocked it out far more than anything in Zera for example as well.

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

I do think Soulstice Sprint has some of the best level design I’ve done, and I think that’s due to a couple factors.

110

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

I guess if I had to boil stuff down from what I was gonna say it would be to make sure your moveset is pretty close to final before touching level design. Make sure to blockout stuff and plan it before properly modeling it. Think small first. Minimum viable product, you can always add more after.

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 11/09/2026

I had written a big thread worth of stuff but honestly I’m not sure I’m the best person to give advice on the topic as this is something I’ve struggled with for years myself and I’m not sure I’ve quite figured it out either lol. Perfectionism and poor planning has ruined stuff for me a lot.

before #spyrocommunityday ends has anybody else played the custom spyro 1 level Grim Garden? :D #spyro

spyro the dragon standing on a green platform with sparx the dragonfly by his side. there is another raised green platform in the distance above a lake of glowing purple ooze. just behind that platform is a grass gate with a crystal dragon under it. in the background there are rolling green hills and grey walls with red roofing under a starry violet sky.

You should definitely NOT go and bully this "developer" over on their Steam page for their "totally legit game" that was "not stolen using AI" called "Nocto and the Ray of Light" If you did, the page might just get taken down 😉

if anyone recognizes the other assets in the game that have been stolen from other creators/devs/companies, I'd love to know the specifics of it all. I want to compile a list of people to reach out to and warn this time.

What's that, a new trailer for the game that previously stole all my work? www.youtube.com/watch?v=9myc... Ah, as promised, they've done it again. Great... can't wait for them to have the balls to put this on the storefronts again and have to harass each platform to take it all down...

We’re a ways out from fall but on my life I swear when the air got crisp suddenly yesterday I could smell it, just on the horizon. I can’t wait

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 08/07/2026

Yeah this. There’s a ton on there and I’m real close to finally pulling the trigger on buying one again. I wanna use it for emulation, old consoles and playing my own games.

Aside from this excellent thread, here's a really good article about this kinda thing for anyone curious about doing ntsc, crt, vhs, w/e type effects that actually look good nicole.express/2021/shouldv...

I’ve been talking about video a lot lately; but that was all arcade or some other RGB upscaling. But let’s face it: if you grew up in North America, your arc...

i've been working on a weird little project lately for ghost witch, it borders on being almost like a roguelike or dungeon crawlerish thing but as a 3d platformer collectathon. will have to see how it turns out in the end, but so far getting a lot of basic logic for it setup and its working decent

I think it was Slivania, still need to play Slimes of the World at some point

010

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 09/04/2026

I think I remember playing through at least one of your slime games and having a pretty fun time with it and the controls so you did a great job!

110

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 09/04/2026

I keep seeing and playing games that entirely overlook that far too often, in favor of putting everything into a wonky cramped *almost* one handed keyboard setup, where you're constantly needing to lift your hands off the movement keys to do anything else.

100

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 09/04/2026

But honestly just remembering that the mouse even exists and can be used for stuff like menuing and left/right clicks are an option for attacks/confirming/selecting things etc. is nice.

200

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 09/04/2026

It's gonna depend on what you need and the type of gameplay, I think main thing is just looking at other similar games in the genre for PC and seeing what they do with their control schemes.

Loved the demo for this, can’t wait for the full game!

since i started making my TCG and it got me into doing digital painting for characters, I decided to redo my art for Ghost Witch in this new style. think it turned out decent

i feel like a crazy person lately for expecting that the default method of using a computer be well supported by games made on and for computers

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 06/04/2026

for the love of god, if you make a PC game, make sure it controls well on mouse and keyboard and doesn't have some fuck ass control scheme that feels like it was designed as an afterthought by someone who's never played a game using either

hope he's having fun playing it! i've been following it for forever and want to try it, but i've been hesitant to pull the trigger on actually buying it since i realized it came out based off what i've read about it i'm worried i'll bounce off of it hard

-Sigh-Read-E's- @cyreides.itch.io · 03/04/2026

Lotzo is now gone from the Microsoft Store, so it's dead for now... at least until they reupload the game as Nocto using model swaps for the main duo they grabbed from sketchfab (this isn't conjecture btw, I was given a link that shows the exact models they fed to ai for the new key "art")
