A new public version of The Bibites (0.6.2) is out now! The main flashiest feature is the Steam Workshop integration that allows you to share bibites, scenarios, etc. in an easier manner than ever! But don't worry, we've got lots of stuff for everyone! And a surprise! ⬇️more

I used to do a bit whenever I started losing in board games. I’d play emotional music and stare into the distance with resignation. 50% of the time, others would take pity and start helping me 50% they'd dogpile me even more, laughing maniacally win-win

Apparently, it has always been this easy to get natural predators to evolve from herbivores! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAh_...

The "Sad" (interesting) thing is that it's mostly evolved for the oposite of its intended use nowadays With all the changes I Implemented since, herding doesn't really seem to be encouraged and it's now pretty much always used as a kind of avoidance behavior (by negative stimulation)

It's an honor Mr.Reynolds! Your work on boids (and probably much more I'm not aware of) inspired my simulation significantly I even mentioned you in one of my early videos when I used a system heavily based on boids to implement simplified herding behaviors youtu.be/JTnup-TxkbA

I will attend! And I would love to present something focusing on technical aspects of The Bibites! But I'm not a formal academic so the lingo loses me a bit Workshops seem more for open discussions? Tutorials seem a bit too focused on teaching? What's the right kind of proposal?

The unspoken truth about adding achievements to your game is that you get tired very quickly of having to write the word "Achievement"

A few people asked about wanting to have a better look at my math notes for the revision to the bite system Here nerds! (I can't talk much as I'm the one who made them, but still)

No Bibites NFTs ever Stupid technology to stupider (or even non-existing) problems

I’d just like to shout out humans for at least seeing through NFTs as the most idiotic idea possible.

I hope so! I usually pride myself in trying my best to give every voice an ear and expose myself to different opinions, even if I strongly disagree, but twitter has become toxic and unhealthy so I'm looking for alternatives Still using both for now, although content here feels better

I use @freya.bsky.social's Shape for in game graphs, but for video animation manim is the way to go for me They have different strengths I feel Although manim's learning curve is pretty steep, but I got to that point from 0 in a single day, so not so bad I guess

This is a pretty cool scene I captured while searching for B-roll footage for my next video Even Digital Life has drama and disputes Makes me think of all the lives, wars, and events, that take place continuously with our physical microorganisms, and at such an enormous scale #ALife

My polycule decided to learn it as our secret language to communicate boundaries and personal things in public. It's worthwhile no matter what: It remains a niche conlang: Yay! Secret language! It becomes widespread: Yay! We can communicate with more people added bonus: new ways to think abt stuff

The podcast mentions that this takes place in the same universe as one of your book series, but not which one? I've been going through your sci-fi bibliography in the last year and this short story was so good that I'm considering giving a chance to your fantasy work next!

Does this make my point? I think it makes my point Don't worry about the point, just look at it

Wish I started learning Manim sooner It's such a powerful (but admitedly complex and convoluted) tool for making mathematically driven animations easily (once you get the hang of it) I'm only scratching the surface, but it'll make video making much faster

If you haven't given it a chance, Alien Clay is among my favorites for these exact reasons

What a cool surprise! Bibitte is such a nice, quirky, and straight up funny word. I chose it for my project's name because it felt silly to bring the word outside of Québec, but also made me kinda proud. It's awesome to learn you thought alike 😍 I'll start naming myself 💫 mama pi pipi ilo 💫

Got interested in toki pona a few months back and back then your dictionary using semantic spaces really helped make it click for me Still learning, but that was the first place where I finally adopted the right perspective

I meant that I won't mention on other platforms that I created an account here to test Bluesky's inherent discoverability 😅 Still gonna follow the interesting accounts I come across!

Tests of procedural animation all in shader placeholder material displaying the normal of each body part Floppier arms would be nice, but figuring out new SDFs, especially with normals, which are needed for future shading and texturing, is hard

it's wild how much time and money is being spent to make something that is worse than literally any game that has existed in video game history
