This is such a good example that highlights how we often oversimplify what we think we “know” and what we call “facts” www.youtube.com/shorts/ol1E2...

What even counts as a word?

I'm gonna add another problem to the pile by mentioning that in English grammar, any noun can be used as though it were a verb. Put another way, you can verb any noun. Examples include "It's *raining,*" and "Could you *hand* me that?" So should verbed nouns count as different words?

It's been on the games shelf for as long as I can remember. Funnily enough, I think it was there before we even had a 360 (though we did have the original Xbox). Not that it was a particularly long wait before we got a 360. I grew up with the original Halo trilogy.

Hm... I wonder if that's at least similar to how games like Terraria do it...

Speaking from experience, yeah, that's probably what might happen.

Uly. Klip. @ulyssesk402.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Hm, that could work. Previously, I'd just made a new object with the sprite I wanted to use, and the creator function was assigned to a variable. And then I'd referred to the variable to manipulate the new object. If that sounds like spaghetti, well, it sure felt like it.

Uly. Klip. @ulyssesk402.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

True, but I'm wondering what can be done to that sprite afterwards... Possibly through some "dedicated_variable = draw_sprite()" setup.

Uly. Klip. @ulyssesk402.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

It still works, I see. Why modify a system that works perfectly?

Wow! I'll have to look to see if there's an equivalent in GameMaker.

I feel this. Not only with creating literature, but also with game development.

Static Functions? I don't think I've heard of that yet. I wonder if that's a programming thing in general, or if it's mainly just in the language Godot uses?

It certainly helps that now I'm doing this in Krita instead of Flash CS4. Krita is less prone to crashing at the least convenient times, and is missing the bizarre behaviors that made Flash tedious and intimidating to use. Makes me more bold to try different things when animating.

Currently redoing some sprites for #BlueStarGame. I want to apply some of what I learned when doing Art Fight, and try some new animation techniques.

Looks like the right way to figure out what was a good idea wasn't to figure out what made it good, but to compare it to another idea and figure out which one was worse. It's a good thing you at least considered dashing instead of jumping.

RedstoneNed isn't exactly friendly, but he has a point. Saving physical media isn't automatically going to save media ownership. GOG and Itch.io are both digital-only platforms which let you own your games. #physicalgames #physicalgaming #nodiscbuy www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzQm...

When you see a person with a Clippy as their profile picture, know that you've seen a person who is boycotting this. Louis Rossmann started the Clippy Movement, and many of us still have Clippy as our profile pictures. We will keep it this way until we have our consumer rights respected.

Four pixels of SCP-096's face.

Don't worry, this one's just an illustration. The REAL four pixels are still going behind the challenge-taker, though.

...I see where they're coming from, but whether their perception of Lucifer is accurate or not, it doesn't warrant paragraphs about how an author is writing Lucifer wrong. It'd be like telling the author of a Study in Emerald that he wrote Sherlock Holmes wrong.

I didn't find an explicit setting to disable mods, or to "Play with or without mods on startup" like StS 1 had. So I improvised. Unless there's something I'm missing, I'd advise making a Steam collection of your favorite mods (and setting it to unlisted if you prefer). Quick-(un)subscribe.

Just tried Slay the Spire 2 with mods. Turns out that the game loads an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT file if you have mods installed, which means your first run with mods will have none of your unlocks. You get your old file back when you remove your mods.
