So many non-programming people will now learn that you shouldn't take that "almost finished" game jam prototype and try to make a finished game out of it.

If AI ever truly "solves" software engineering, it will have solved most non-physical jobs first. Cheering for coders to get replaced is a bit like cheering for the iceberg because you dislike the people standing at the bow.

If the teased StarCraft game at BlizzCon turns out to be a mobile game, that will be the final nail in the "legendary Blizzard" coffin, and final confirmation that they lost all contact with their audience.

I've managed to beat Larn ( via larn.org ) on my first attempt... of course difficulty 0. But still, this is one of the few roguelikes I've beaten. I regret never having tried it earlier - it has a lot of interesting ideas that would have shaped my roguelike career!

Classic rogue-LIKE fans, this indie developer made a turn based title with permadeath, procedural levels and pure 90s sci-fi carnage, from the developer of DRL (f.k.a DoomRL) It's called Jupiter Hell Classic, and it's 20% OFF for the Steam Summer Sale!

Each time I finally feel autonomous AI codegen gets a W on my codebases, a few days later a basic significant oversight is revealed that I would never have done building the code myself.

Fun fact: Moria predates Rogue. But not THAT Moria. The 1970s PLATO Moria was a first-person dungeon crawler (proto-blobber?) with RANDOM LEVELS. The Moria that became Umoria->Angband was a later Rogue-inspired roguelike. This is why programmers say naming things is hard.

I always find it funny when someone who's never heard of USENET tries to explain the origin of the word "roguelike" to me.

All those "one shot game X in Fable" people don't seem to realize why game jam games can be completed in 2 days, but then the commercial version of said game can take 2 years.

Finished Half-Life 1. Indeed a masterpiece of its time. I especially love the environments/level design and environmental storytelling. While people point out that Deus Ex was released afterwards, I do have to point out that Dark Forces and Jedi Knight were released before!

I will have to retract my fairly positive opinion about Claude and agentic code tools in general. While they do work fairly competently with the DRL mixed FreePascal/Lua codebase, against the much larger C++/Lua codebase of Jupiter Hell they're proving barely worthwhile...
