KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Okay it is maybe a weird thing to ask, but do i even have any chances of finding a job or a freelance gig without any portfolio? I do have one in progress but nothing final yet 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 16/09/2026i had but i was just unsure how to organize it also, maybe my backlog just overwhelms me 110
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 16/09/2026well i basically made small thematic islands in a void, and put signs or a notebook in them, and like it's cool but feels more like "what you was thinking when writing it" instead of just a general purpose notes 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 16/09/2026It's like... i have too many projects that i can't keep track of, i need to see instantly how much stuff i had on my mind, otherwise i would just forget about it 020
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I wonder if anybody does something fancy for "everything notes"? atm im using obsidian and like it kinda works, but i dont like how cluttered it gets, i like more flat structure tbf, something akin of a 2d canvas. Also tried taking notes in minecraft but it was cluttered and had some friction 430
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 12/09/2026uh damn, hopefully the components are fine. I have a psu fan sometimes clicking in rhythmic noises and it scares me 111
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Windows is like: "Do you want me to sleep or update and sleep?" Chose to just sleep And in the middle of the night, you woke me up with a noise of the fans 020
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 08/09/2026and of course some post processing to hide the hideousness of it, total i think it took me like 1-2 hours on an off it in this morning, maybe a bit less if i wasn't distracting that much but yeah. Would be fun to animate it in the future 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 08/09/2026as for materials it is just a a few flat color materials though for the dark sentient "creature" i've added maybe a bit too much glow, because without it that felt too dark, and it highlights it a bit better 110
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 08/09/2026So yeah i've downloaded the teapot and started to assemble it in blender, i had no idea how i wanted it to look so just started to make stuff, the topology is hideous and i probably would not be able to rig it even 110
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 08/09/2026So few years ago i had an idea in mind to make a living kettle, since it kinda puns with the ketal, and i actually had a 2d vector image of it lost somewhere. And welp today while i could not fall asleep i though of it again, and i remembered that there's an Utah Teapot that might fit for that 111
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 07/09/2026so starting to figure that quality of my work just comes to the amount of time dedicate to it, like skill matters somewhat but really recently i can't make anything fun or good just because i start to quit after few hours of working on it 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I dunno, maybe egoistical to say but i almost never finished any of my hobby project that i didn't "validate" with somebody else. Seeing somebody play something janky felt a bit more rewarding that doing something technically good in the void 140
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 06/09/2026is it a bit overkill for a placeholder content warning image? (yes for me its easier to use blender and substance designer for graphic design than inkscape) 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Also i'm like myself debating rn if i should even do stuff that i am thinking of or not, but i been mostly productive where i had 0 expectations of how a thing would work out in the end as weird as it sounds 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 05/09/2026just do it, it's always fun when somebody does it manually just for the sake of it, even if is non monetary viable 130
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 31/08/2026yeah and weirdly i like it already more than doing 2v2 map blockouts heh 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Noticed that doing more research, reference gathering and looking closely at the details made my dreams more logical and less liminal in recent years 000
Reposted by KETALStrange Scaffold @strangescaffold.bsky.social · 18/08/2026In the process of making a new Meat Skin for Truck-kun (which I'm typing casually but please know I am thinking "what is my job?") @thelordofhands.bsky.social made this little video of their progress. Enjoy the cutest lil skelly-truck! 🚚🦴 810528
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 14/08/2026For me it's any of the "Mario" games Maybe i am just young to understand the appeal of it but without being nostalgic for it it just seems boring. A platformer with fantasy setting. Come to think of it i am also not a fan of medieval/fantasy genres in general 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 11/08/2026i really only have 2 states of mood - damn, i feel lazy, everything is hard, i don't wanna do it that gets completely obliterated with a sudden spike of motivation into - fuck yeah that things are fun to make (and proceed to finish many tasks in a short amount of time) 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 11/08/2026That was supposed to loop, but i think it happened funnier that way 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 11/08/2026wish there was a version without the bezel/island at all, like i have 0 uses for the front camera and i hate when something is obstructing the screen 110
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Made a simple cs2 1v1 map for fun steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...steamcommunity.comSteam Workshop::1v1 Outrooms 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 04/08/2026First time i heard about vibe coding as a term without knowing what it meant i really thought it was just like, coding based on your intuition, not caring about making a code perfect on the first time... turned out it was just a term for generating slop 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 02/08/2026So i kinda had a thought that maybe i want a fancier task manager, with sound effects and visuals, that thought then turned into a test and now i have a task manager beta but without the fun stuff yet It is also my first release of a software in a sense github.com/KETALx/taskl... #GodotEngine 010
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 01/08/2026So turns out you can't manually clean/remove repositories from github Top repositories sidepanel... guess it's always gonna be cluttered -_- 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 31/07/2026real world kinda has a lot of distraction though, so you are less focused on a specific task. Though personally its fun to plan or think about stuff while swimming, there is not much else to do 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 30/07/2026I want to get a real life task list that also automatically plays a completed SFX without a manual input 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Beware: changing values without thinking can lead you to childhood nightmares 020
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Thought about installing unreal engine 5 again, but it had so much technical friction that pissed me off completely, disabling nanite and suffering with meshes not render even though they dont use it, blueprints mess, ux being confusing. Sure can a skill issue, but its unintuitive 000
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 09/02/2026How "polished" the game should be? because i do have few quirks with godot workflows 100
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 28/01/2026I wish tools like blender had a subtle ui sounds and animations, it'd be more satisfying to use. Also why does settings/keybindings in game have better ux than in most tools 020
KETAL @k3tal.bsky.social · 28/01/2026And the rest is being anxious when thinking of what method to approach the form with 000
