Nothing beats a good ole "as per my previous email". I used to direct quote my own emails in responses to inquiries. It may *seem* rude, but considering they don't read, they won't register the sass either 😏

The revelation that games (and other things we enjoy) are made by people is always world-changing. Because suddenly it's not just "wow, this cool thing came to be", it's "WOW, someone made this! With their hands! That someone could be ME! I could make this!" :D

While I really do hope you get your old account back, make an alt in the meantime! Don't let this isolate you from your friends and loved ones 🫂

Hey, it's been a while! Decided to share a small mappack for Patrick's Parabox that I was working on a year ago: - "Thick Walls" 6 puzzles, around medium difficulty, all focused on a shared theme: - You start as two individual wall players itch.io/t/6781321/th... #PatricksParabox #puzzles

Level "First Steps" from my mappack "Thick Walls", for the game "Patrick's Parabox"

Level "Rabbit Hole" from my mappack "Thick Walls", for the game "Patrick's Parabox"

Level "Transit System" from my mappack "Thick Walls", for the game "Patrick's Parabox"

Level "Freckled Cheeks" from my mappack "Thick Walls", for the game "Patrick's Parabox"

I know the rules say to use our own judgement, but would editing your assets for, say, added variations, be against the spirit of the jam? For example, from your "Retro Textures Fantasy", if I wanted different bricks to have shading or cracks. The baseline would still be yours, but with more variety

I just use PureRef. It's a free program, so not online, but that also means no accounts or subscriptions :)

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Very fun challenge! (labeled "Graphic" to hide spoilers, Bluesky really needs better labels!)

Solution to FLEB's "Red Tape" puzzle. The subtitle reads "Go through all rules!". Rule 1, marked start: "Go to the rule after", which leads to Rule 2: "Go to rule 6". Rule 6: "Go three rules before", leading to Rule 3: "Go two rules after", which takes you to Rule 5: "Go one rule before", landing you on Rule 4: "Go three rules after", finally taking you to Rule 7, the end, marked as "You may cross". The bottom says "Please fill out the form to pass"

Monday being "moon day" is also very nice. In Spanish, other days of the week are dedicated to other celestial bodies 😊

This post inspired me to work on a little hacked-together thing. Not a proper solution, has a lot of issues, but it does *kinda* get the job done: bsky.app/profile/hugo...

The CSS for this one is a hot mess so use at your own peril. Will probably end up breaking on some edge case I didn't foresee. gist.github.com/HugoBDesigne...

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

Did a thing where Bluesky's media gallery collapses down into individual images/videos. Upside is better visibility and navigation. Downside is there is no mechanism to distinguish posts from the author and from whoever they're responding to.

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

Immediately got sick the next day, and went to sleep feeling like this for the past three days or so. What sort of curse has your literature inflicted upon me, Ethan?? The curse of Sable???

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 23/06/2026

Optional Pro Mode is definitely a must. I know a few people who would rather play without the implicit additional burden. As for undo, it might be a me thing, but I'd prefer not to have it, since I feel like it'd encourage brute forcing more. People can already experiment if they ignore pro mode.

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

As a fellow "older SketchUp" user, any tips? Plugins you recommend? I struggle a lot with organic-ish or curved surfaces and the program is constantly creating weird edges and deleting faces :(

How it feels to go to sleep while sick 😭

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

Good news! I apparently can still read it on mobile data for some reason. It's just my ISP being weird probably

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

Tried on Firefox, Chrome and OperaGX. All of them just time out. Always some variation of: "The connection has timed out The server at akacomic.com is taking too long to respond." Funnily enough, the link embed works 😅

It might be just me, but the comic website won't load. Noticed this a couple days ago, and it's just this site :(

If AI is unavoidable, how come I've been avoiding it so well with no downsides or issues? If I'm being left behind, how come they still insist that I use the plagiarism machine to replace myself? Surely this fearmongering is based on statistics and not vibes... right??

No no no Adrien, you're not supposed to have nuanced opinions or see through the bait! Just talk about how you dislike something someone else likes, or how you like something someone else dislikes! C'mon, you gotta have polarizing hot takes hey hey now stop being critical of what you consume 😭🙏

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

Only program I've seen do it right is Paint.NET with its "Update when I exit" dialog. Like yes, thank you for giving me the option to continue using the program AND update when it's convenient 🙏🙏🙏

HugoBDesigner @hugobdesigner.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

Impressive! In the year of our Lord 2026, there are still programs that will open an unskippable update window right when you're opening them. It's fine, I just wanted to look at the software updater, not like I needed to use it right now or anything :D

As much as I hate AI, the fact of the matter is it's built on pattern recognition and common structures. It didn't invent listicles, em dashes, "it's not just about X", or Oxford commas. Those tend to be tells, yes – but just like any symptom, it can be attributed to many causes :P
