I beat my first Extra Stage in Touhou last night 😭❤️ I'm so happy. It was Touhou 8's Extra boss, Fujiwara no Mokou. Next I'll probably try Flandre, Ran & Yukari, or Mamizou.

I entered Brackey's Game Jam last month! Made a tiny game about dodging & collecting bullets. I did this one solo so I could specifically work on something that I could learn from later. #gamedev #indiedev light-strider.itch.io/fragile-heart

The free intro to shaders guide we're working on for @godotengine.org is shaping up well. It should amount to about 1/5th of a book in size. We're making sure all the techniques covered (masking, warping, procedural shapes, etc.) are common building blocks directly applicable to many game shaders.

Really struggling to get the engine going when designing my protagonist. Despite having a good grasp of what he looks like, I'm hesitating on fleshing him out on paper (metaphorically) and I've convinced myself I need a 'workflow' for it. I gotta get over it 🫠

the whole article is well worth reading but here's a particularly grim excerpt from near the end, interviewing one of the creators of the three-cueing system so many kids were taught that ruined their ability to read

When I asked him what he makes of the cognitive science research, he told me he thinks scientists focus too much on word recognition. He still doesn't believe accurate word recognition is necessary for reading comprehension.

"Word recognition is a preoccupation," he said. "I don't teach word recognition. I teach people to make sense of language. And learning the words is incidental to that."

He brought up the example of a child who comes to the word "horse" and says "pony" instead. His argument is that a child will still understand the meaning of the story because horse and pony are the same concept.

I pressed him on this. First of all, a pony isn't the same thing as a horse. Second, don't you want to make sure that when a child is learning to read, he understands that /p/ /o/ /n/ /y/ says "pony"? And different letters say "horse"?

He dismissed my question.

"The purpose is not to learn words," he said. "The purpose is to make sense."

not that I ever planned to do anything with the knights beyond sketchbook doodles, but in general telling a creator about your idea for their story or characters is the best way to make sure it will never happen lol (same goes for like Marvel or other public IP writers/characters too btw)

I 100% have not changed a single goddamn thing about how I write here in the age of "AI." I write how I write. If the "AI" writes anything like how I write, it's because it stole from me. I'm gonna use any punctuation I like, and if it looks "AI"ish to you, you can go fuck yourself.
