@aaronmac64.bsky.social I'm afraid you'll have to push through at this point I'm very curious to see if console manufacturers will approve of/mandate engine versions boasting this kind of quality - porting might become even more of a nightmare for a bit […]

@seandick.net find the tapes, so the recorder can support you in the final boss fight! x) maybe a dev note for context at the beginning is a good idea then? saying the demo is a bonus level of the full game about collecting the music

@seandick.net didn't see it, but if they didn't talk to the tape recorder a decent compromise might be auto triggering that with a good dialogue skip function (double tap/hold some button with a UI explaining that on the first press) impatient players will find and use that, others will always […]

@seandick.net huh I hadn't quite realised you added that have you considered putting the dither on the character when too close rather than clipping the environment with it? that always seems less distracting to me

@seandick.net the angle doesn't have to change? I'm on team "just push it towards/into the character" but you do have to mark some more flimsy geometry (fences/lamp posts/glass/etc) that would only obstruct the view a little as not obstructing the camera (so those can be clipped through/don't […]

Alright, I've settled splitting out my feed into two new pinned columns - the old notification one I already had and then everything uncategorised in the new forced to the right variable home column - crisis averted I do like it a lot better in mobile

@seandick.net little sand pile circle at the edge might help too add to the ground texture already implying it was turned before I suppose the solid base didn't really help?

so I ultimately just ferried it through the red channel whenever alpha values are present cause we don't typically need them simultaneously passing over what objects have that alpha to red conversion as well, so I only convert red back to alpha on the other side on them meaning bulk jobs […]
