I don't think I want to share my predictions for the future. I might have some cocoa and disassociate for a while instead.
In response to a video about students from the 60s predicting the future someone commented:
 
@grok how come kids in 1966 knew more than what i know now?

Screenshot of a Tumblr-style reply thread between accounts named "zhuangzi" and "xunzi," each using a traditional ink-portrait avatar: zhuangzi an elderly sage with a long white beard and dark headwear on a cream ground, xunzi a black-bearded man in a dark cap. zhuangzi opens: "while you were jacking off to boobs and ass i was jacking off to masterful use of negative space." xunzi replies: "you can just say hole." zhuangzi answers: "you don't understand anything."

Whelm is about a young penguin. You have to navigate the world without instruction. Use your toddler powers to help animals and plants. Your methods may be clumsy and unorthodox.

I do have a feature in the works for giving hints. It will be something players can disable for the full experimentation experience. But it won't be "take this ball and go here". At a certain point I have to accept even Outer Wilds and Untitled Goose Game have negative reviews based on difficulty.

First negative review. I won't screenshot, but a major criticism is the lack of instructions and not indicating what items do. The store page says this: "No instructions. No interruptions. This is a game about exploration and experimentation." Is there a way I could make this clearer? #gamedev

Daniel is sharing his starter pack of game devs that don't use AI, so I figured rather than just repost it, I would quote post it with my three no AI game dev starter packs. go.bsky.app/6DRdowf go.bsky.app/AS5R4p7 go.bsky.app/7K7JDCJ

Some bugs have been brought to my attention. I might not get around to fixing this one though. Game breaking physics issues take precedence. #gamedev
The penguin's belly can be inflated possibly forever, but my fingers got tired.
