Years ago after loving a book I initially found boring I came up with the rule to give a book at least 50 pages to hook me. Hard for me to continue beyond that if it’s a slog.

One reoccurring theme in my life has been that the stuff I've made most carelessly has been what people actually liked best. Every artist wants to believe that they have some special vision, and they know what makes something "good", but I think it takes a lot of humility to accept that you don't

The new Kirby game looks neat! I wonder how Meta Knight will fit into it... Seems like a good time to reshare Kirby art too

I went and bought a Switch 2 — my first Nintendo system since the DS — for this game (and other reasons like having a modern offline game system and games on cartridge)

I have been called a lot of things over the years: "furry", "SJW", now "nazi" -- just sort of comes with the job I guess. I chose to forgive my friend who has apologized and done better. I get that some people don't believe that, or are incapable of forgiveness.

Brigador devs think it's crucial that their abrasive, hardcore mech sims aren't for everyone: 'I think we make boy slop, but that's okay'

Discourse deliberately steers into the most useless intractable not-even-wrong framing that can be generated for any given issue. The meme doesn’t want the problem solved. If the problem were solved, people would stop propagating the meme. The meme wants to propagate.

Folks, Corpus Edax is 4€/$4 USD, if you'd like to spend an afternoon or two in a janky imsim RPG beating people up, this would hit the mark I think. This is also funding my current game!

The only way for books to survive is for everyone to write them in universally formatted paragraphs so readers can collect and order the paragraphs themselves. Imagine paying $5 “but then he woke up. It was all just a bad dream!” so that you can fix the ending of any story.

I had a similar thought. How is anyone expected to get “good” coding performance from an LLM when the language they have is totally bespoke with virtually no examples?

Aubrey Serr @serr.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
It just seems very counterproductive -- the stuff people are writing in Blueprints isn't some trivial boilerplate. A lot of times it's core game behavior that you are going to need to tweak over and over. I get the feeling they looked at Roblox and concluded people don't care about gamefeel?

So you are going to learn the new New System and hope they don't pull the rug out from under you again? It takes YEARS to master these tools. FWIW, I actually like both scripting options but for different jobs. For levels I usually prefer visual scripting.

Aubrey Serr @serr.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
My biggest issue with Unreal ditching Blueprints isn't about if Blueprints is good or not. Unreal already removed one scripting system (UnrealScript) and replaced it with Blueprints claiming it was a huge improvement, etc. etc. Now they are going back to just text scripting with nothing visual?

It is entirely possible that line of code entered by hand is 100% identical to one generated by AI. It is not possible to tell the difference. Expecting people to try to police that isn't realistic

I have been using Godot since 3.0 and been continually impressed with how the engine has been maintained and improved, I don't see any reason to change my mind now. I trust them to keep doing a good job

I get that you feel like an expert because you’re repeating a meme from a YouTube video that made you feel safe. Perhaps though instead of spreading disinformation you should listen to people who know what they’re talking about? Or, you can become increasingly detached from reality and your peers

Did you know that any language can be bound to control the Godot game engine? Here's a quick test setup with minc running the game loop, drawing a mc test cube. All scripted in minc, no godot editor used. Running on macOS.

Recently I ran across a novice artist who was trying to pass off AI slop as their own hand-drawn work. Just don’t. We can all tell. Your integrity and vision are worth more than a shortcut. If you aren’t happy with your own ability, put the time in to get better.
