When you eat food you turn it into more of you, so when you want someone to make a sandwich for you, the real ask is "will you make a sandwich me?"

I already have a private itch page. Wondering if I should wait until Im up on steam or do I just throw it on itch and worry about steam later? @indiegamedevs.bsky.social @indiegamepreachers.bsky.social

I've been sitting on a new video of all the months of progress I've made on my game. Why am I so hesitant to post it? Especially when so many chill people were supportive of what I've already shown. Part of it is I want to include a steam or itch.io link so people can actually play it.

Once you have the spot logic you can use that same formula like a brush, replacing the circle with whatever shape you like. Stripes would require anchoring/direction in addition to thickness and length, its trickier but good progression up from spots.

I've been assuming they're procedurally generated with a set of parameters like how long or short a segment can be. So imagine spots would be just randomly applied circles of different sizes that also get fed parameters for how big/small, frequency, and color or choose color based on primary color.

I been thinking about your games critters - how much effort would procedural patterns be? Spots, stripes, etc

Yo it does all that while creating a sense of urgency, that big fly bot keeps creeping closer, and a sense of how the world may be altered by your actions by making its death drop the bridge which is a mechanic for revealing hidden areas later on. The fall also teaches the wall jump.

Of course! Leave the cult of personality stuff for the right lol, Im here for substance and exchange of ideas. At the end of the day under capitalism people with less money need more investment than people with more money do. There are class elements and racial ones, but they're not 100% the same.

I agree with the second point at its core - the way his messaging sweeps up racial inequality into class inequality rhetorically lessens the genuine impact of racial inequality. He needed to make a stronger or clearer case about how addressing one addresses the other.

Awesome, thank you for elaborating! I appreciate you taking the time to lay it all out for me. Not engaging with the reparations question and punting with 'well congress wouldn't do it' is exactly how opponents of UHC cop out of engaging with his #1 issue. I agree with your criticism there.

I'm not a vn player, but in dialog character art i like when the current speaker's static sprite bounces, squashes, and stretches as a visual form of verbal inflection (more excited means faster and chaotic bouncing/stretching, etc) - it communicates who is speaking and how they are speaking.

Or is there some other thing I'm ignorant about that he is collaborating with Bannon on? Legit asking, acknowledging I may be dumb, i just want to know.

May I ask for elaboration and who might have a better track record? Like if it was Bernie vs Abdul I'm voting Abdul. Bernie vs Mamdani Im voting Mamdani. Banon is awful, but I'm not going to stop breathing air because Banon breathes air, so what specifically is wrong with aoc/bs ai moratorium act?

2016 democratic primary to me it was 'universal healthcare, actually marched with MLK, said some cringey old white guy things' guy vs 'young black men are super predators' lady. If I'm wrong to think that then lets have that 'why not' discussion because I'm scratching my head here.

The House voted to condemn “socialism” earlier this week. Listen, I’ve been in and around politics for over 50 years. I grew up during McCarthyism and the “red Scare” of the 1950s. I’ve seen all of this fear-mongering before. Here’s what’s really going on.

Oh awesome! Right, horses can be led to water but not made to drink. I'm ignorant about Finland's elected leaders, but the health and happiness index makes me think they're doing a lot right.

100% that's the problem! Its like, are we a representative democracy or not? How are people going to vote in good leaders if the electorate doesn't understand how knowledge works or how to fruitfully debate about it?

Teaching epistemology and debate really is how to inoculate against rampant bullshit.

Epistemology is how to deal with that.

The "Fox New"s of the world don't need the internet to rot brains. They predate TV and even radio. Epistemology should be required coursework throughout school like math and science. That's the missing skill set in the general populace.

Don't be like Elissa Slotkin, be sure to talk about Bay City's bridges in Saginaw. That is an issue even local republicans running for office like Timmy Beson agree on. Its the biggest issue for most of Bay City and Saginaw.

There's enough bridge problems in Michigan you can literally campaign on bridge building

Please go to Bay City and talk about the bridges stolen by private equity.

I think the fucked up versions come from conflating the physiological and psychological changes induced from testosterone as masculinity instead of realizing its actually about the ability to stay in control despite it and to find healthy and constructive outlets for those changes.

Oh, so not actually meeting with constituents who would tell you about the corruption with Bay City Bridge Partners. You only met with the folks that voted thrice to give their constituents bridges away to those bridge trolls like the mayor who named the day after you. Got it.

Dog songs sung in the absence of the dogs is for workshopping new lyrics. Where else can I figure out a different rhyme for 'my dog so sweet' and 'she got Ilittle puppy feet'? 'And you know she want a treat', 'and she barking in her sleep', 'shes a dog you wanna meet' - Thanks traffic dog songs
