lots of systems running in my game. arrows show a dependency. the system or systemset on the pointer-side of the arrow requires that it's run *after* the system or systemset on the origin-side of the arrow. i'm really surprised how pleasant it is to simulate a full aircraft using the ECS paradigm.

working on the fault panel of an aircraft, and its underlying systems. it will look better than this though in the future lol. i just needed an interface to test it.

seeing the directory structure of my projects is interesting. this one's getting decently big.

oh i shouldve posted the actual sprite. videos on bsky are hard to get to the last frame of

working on a character for my friend's vrchat world. i'm not quite happy with the profile view. any critiques? i think the shape of the dress's base or flair is the problem.

tried making some olivine. first time using blending modes like this in aseprite.

struggling to decide between these artstyles. i barely understand how to do colored outlines, especially in this context. but i think it maybe has more potential.

made a beretta. i really like what i did with the soft edges

wow your rendering of skin is a lot better than i remember

Ibis M. Sunrosa @drsunrosa.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

i definitely want to make lots of other things. right now guns are just so easy, because their shape is so unambiguous that all i really have to focus on is the colors and lighting and vibes.

i used the sprngr.itch.io/aseprite-rec... plugin, as well as this command: ffmpeg -framerate 12 -i '%d.png' -c:v libx265 -vf "scale=1024:1024:flags=neighbor" -pix_fmt yuv420 p out.mp4 and that's all it took to create this timelapse.

okay 64px icons at 1x scaling is just so much better. if you look at my previous post, the cartridges looked like shit.

Ibis M. Sunrosa @drsunrosa.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

i found a nice palette for making icons. i really like the v-fib icon lol. also, i'll have to find a way to add detail to the RPG, considering it's too narrow to be dithered, if it still is to fit inside a 128x128 canvas. lospec.com/palette-list...

an array of the sprites i made yesterday and today

Ibis M. Sunrosa @drsunrosa.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

making sprites for the game i'm working on. i heavily used a reference here (using measurements from the reference), but still made it by hand, and stylized as much as i could. im quite happy with this for my minimal experience with pixel art. the dithering looks especially nice to me.

this solution (in first image) is so clean! extensive explanation in ALT text.

these functions are great, because i often have to use 32-bit floating point numbers, and i use a tick rate of 64Hz, which leads to small-enough changes getting rounded down to zero, (which would lead to, for example, a person's hunger never going down). these helpers allow me to force the tick value to always be at least the minimum supported value. and i can specify the sign, so it works in all 3 signed scenarios (always pos; always neg; one or the either)

here is my helper function to apply metabolic drain in various places. you can see the always_pos() function getting used here to force the drain to occur.

here we have the third situation i presented in image 1. drugs can either apply a positive health tick effect, or a negative one. and so we have the min_copysign() function. it copies the *original* sampled value, which will never be zero, because it's not yet multiplied with the time delta. the time delta is 1/64, which is why it often rounds down to zero after the multiplication is performed. this is so convenient!

also doing some fun stuff with the new algebraic_mul to calculate metabolism

2 Bevy systems and a helper function for calculating human metabolism. The numbers are basically random for now.

my pigeondaughter often jumps out of her nest to go find her nest, and then gets lost searching around the house for her nest

got it to look pretty good with very simple math. only one invocation of pow (in the sigmoid)

also i cant believe the state of github.com/wolfpld/tracy on linux is so messy that i had to just run it through wine lol (and it works perfectly). no shade to the developers though. dynamic linking is a fucking nightmare.

the thousand dollar thinkpad whenever you do anything on it lol. im glad i didnt buy this myself. my build times for small software regularly exceeds 30m for docs and 20m for debug.

the fact that doing this was so easy makes me wonder why i waited so long to start developing GUIs

it went perfectly fine. they said my id was enough, and made no other comment. i don't even know if they noticed it wasnt real id.

Ibis M. Sunrosa @drsunrosa.bsky.social · 31/10/2025

I have once again massively compressed my decoder. this is so fucking epic.

the xIBIS architecture (in progress) with decoders that have been shrunk by ~2x since the last post. the main decoder is the toothbrush-shaped thing, a bit above the "opcode" word. however, the ALU-specific decoder wasn't shrunk, and can't be, since it checks individual lines. that one can be seen to the southeast of the main decoder, and is attached to the same blue bus that the main decoder and the opcode input are attached to.

so you just go through the normal line?

here's a register thing i (semi-originally) made, to attract attention to it. the latch design is definitely not mine though. but i like my compact routing of the write-enable.

does anyone have info on going through TSA without real id? i have to do it in 2 days. TSA officially recognizes this procedure and says so on their site. i've spoken to people who have done this after may this year, and got through. just wondering if there are tips on what to bring and what to say
