setting aside the obvious ethical and ecological concerns people love to conveniently ignore, this stuff isn't even actually good???? its been genuinely embarrassing to watch so many programmers show their ass in 4k

the last attempt, is generating tests you mean the part where I am wanting to ensure both the correctness of the code, but also, _my understanding of it_? that is the worst thing I could outsource. im praying for a meteor strike at this point

in the next attempt, he describes boilerplate codegen. why are my APIs so poorly designed they all require significant boilerplate? moreover, time-to-text-in-file has _never_ been the bottleneck in engineering.

just had an unnamed VP of a random company try explaining the benefits of áÍ to me; in his example, he ends up describing a typechecker my brother in christ, we have deterministic, proven ways of doing this. why on gods green earth would I want an often-silently-incorrect approximation?

still hoping for a comp fps with expressiveness of movement like H5 (youtu.be/6f7CJZZOC_Q?...) where its a core of the design, and not - derived from exploits in the mechanics (e.g. slide-canceling in cod, l-canceling in melee) - derived from the sheer quantity of classes and items

good post as an mgs3 enjoyer, im having fun, but it loses a lot of the visual character (even with the legacy palettes). other uncanny bits: - hyper real geo alongside stilted anim transitions without motion matching. - "modern controls" run into many awkward spacings/scenarios

Tsuneki Ikeda of CAVE on the value of hard games shmuplations.com/ikeda
I personally think that games are not just for having fun; they could also be called a form of competition, of gamer vs. game. When you watch a story unfold in a game, it can be moving. However, when you clear a game that has a reputation for being impossible to all but the most dedicated of players, then you will experience something that is distinct from what narrative games offer.

So long as there are players who want very difficult games, I hope to keep making them. Of course sometimes we overdo it, and the players get pissed at us. (laughs)

I mean, if it’s ok for there to be casual games for casual players, then what’s wrong with having hard games for hardcore players? Casual players are an important part of the audience, it’s true, but hardcore players are equally important. My hope is that I can convey the joy of these difficult games to casual players via the visually dazzling medium of danmaku; maybe then normal, everyday players will have their interest piqued.

Blue Revolver, to me, is the best CAVE-style indie shmup, bar none. it got me into lua/love2d almost ten years ago, which eventually turned into Gun Trails. its a deeply rewarding and fun game, worth your money and time.
