A bit of programmer art #roguelikedev-ing. Entities sensing their surroundings and assessing which behavioural pattern to adopt. Here is a "trophic level" simulation where 1<2<3 in the food chain. A game of cat and mouse between 1 and 3 is interrupted when 1 sees 2 and gets spooked

Testing out the new improvements to Roguefort's 2.5D mode A bit of tearing on the player sprite but it's coming along nicely. I switched it to 2D sprites again rather than extruded 3D versions and it feels more genuinely 2.5 dimensional #roguelikedev #indiedev #roguelike #indiegames #indie #steam

Speedrunning is the most concentrated form of game mastery that exists and most players who watch it don't realize how different their understanding of the same game becomes after 200 hours of optimization. It's not a niche hobby. It's a different relationship with the medium. #speedrunning #gaming

i think one big failing of games is that we don't teach each other about learning design! i thought i'd write a thread about limited bandwidth and limited retention. this is actually really simple to understand. imagine a chessboard with a row of pawns and nothing else.

i just had a light bulb moment.. my 'toon makes his way to an isolated cave, and smells something cheesy, hears something boily, and comes upon a sight for four eyes: a Fondue of Formai de Mut dell’Alta Valle Brembana!! (or insert your alliterate cheese type here)

A golden palace of oozey golden goodness, running down the walls, seeminly from every crack and crevice. The Cheesey Caves of Qurd (yes im back on that lol ) with a Fondue for the Fortunate illuminating the area and also the continous fonduin'g makes you wanna pee
