oshii GITS might be the most mathematically, efficiently perfect adaptation of a manga ever. gets basically everything in there somehow in an eighth of the length of TGITS, a twentieth of the word count, and a flex-worthy amount of long takes and wordless montages. perfect storytelling

Been playing with the cool Scythe plugin for ue5. It's just a dev texture doodle but already the tools are extremely enjoyable. kind of an accidental mirror's edge vibe going on but i dig it.

realtime stuff? afaik kingpin is only lightmapping. Unless that's not what you mean.

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

yup, you can also see how much of early half life 2 beta concept art was partly inspired by some of the stuff he did on kingpin i'd also recommend looking up Gadget - Past As Future :D

Our bodies have more and more plastic in them with each generation. Diabetes is a huge problem in the US from the massive amount of sugar put into literally everything. Society keeps asking us to work harder and faster to breaking point. But yeah, being disabled is "cool". That's it.

a good strategy for this is to always stagger your releases. don't post when you've got something impressive right away. build things up again and treat your WIP posts like as if they're full art drops. Go the extra mile by having videos and some ambience, sometimes gameplay as well when applicable.

like dumb? i think i'm just dumb.

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

i think i just need to either find a programmer or suffer through this myself cause it's the only scripting language i've seen that actually looks simple enough to grasp. I'm also kinda just scatter-brained and i like to try different approaches way too often instead of sticking with one thing

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

recently gave unreal 5 an honest shot and while i loathe most of the graphical shit i feel like there's a lot of good things about specifically making 3d stuff in this engine. Scythe, Spline and animation tools all make me want to jump ship, even if i've never had great experiences programming in BP

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

see my problem right now is that i keep being torn between different engines and nothing ever feels good to stick to for very long.

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

i ended up writing a pretty big response so i'm sharing as an iamge instead tl;dr more indie projects are a good thing because it means more people getting into the industry, less indie projects that have insanely ballooned scope and never get finished. More people making stuff is good.

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

i know it's been a while but i'm still super excited for this. is there any way to keep up with updates that isn't just youtube or here. i'd love to see more progress.

hey @strideh.bsky.social did you ever manage to do anything with that s2 hammer thing you were working on?

Hi, i'm just going to say that i'm taking a different approach to social media, so i might be absent here an on discord for an extended amount of time. Posting this in case people get worried. (i doubt anyone gives a shit but i'm still posting here anyway)

work continues on my FPS base project in Unity. Managed to get here and although there's some jank it already functions as a proper player controller that i can extend all in a night's work

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 03/05/2026

So i've been radio silent for a while. But i took a lil time to learn Unity's scripting system and made this little game. it's nothing special and really unorganized, but it works and i got there without any kind of tutorial, just going off documentation. Here's some footage youtu.be/qf8tS5Ws0Bw

man i haven't felt this of hyperfocus in so long, back in the times when i used to just ignore any need for social interaction and i just had the crazy drive to work on my shit day in and day out. It's a good feeling

want to try flax again since apparently there's a way to install it without building from source. Let's hope that version actually works out of the box

O3DE is disappointing. Add it to the ever growing list of engines that say they "Have Linux Support" even though they don't

i don't know what i'm gonna do, i've got to like clear my hard drive since i'm almost out of space and them i'm gonna try Flax or O3DE again

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

it's like, i woke up all excited going "oh yeah i can finally start working on another LD project" and godot is like "no, we're going to force you to manually remake all 10 materials in your blender scene cause we can't properly read the glTF materials, because fuck you'.

000

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

yeah no, the more i have to deal with godot's awful glTF support the more i want to jump off a fucking building. I keep trying to use this goddamm engine and every time i just come away more and more disappointed. It's so incredibly frustrating.

Null @defective-null.bsky.social · 21/03/2026

Was doing this doodle and kept running into problems with godot adding in an HDRI really does change things, need to learn how to make one at some point i've found some solutions for the problems i was having but it took a ton of time away from sketching, which is annoying

fucking around with more light settings stuff. One misconception i had is that you needed to have SDFGI enabled for shadows to be casted, but that's not true at all and you can just do all this with just the default light settings. Runs at a stable 120 FPS too!

That said, profound autism is not scientifically validated but proposed for policy (toward segregation+?) rather than scientific reasons, as Zoe Gross of @autisticadvocacy.org and I said. “Despite efforts, no independent research teams have been able to identify valid subtypes of autism." 2/
