If you view the source for ridiculousfishing.com/, you can see it has bg music commented out. stephenssausageroll.com/ on the other hand!

@compositeredfox you should totally get @TomNullpointer to make a scene for Panoramical (Inspired by youtube.com/watch?v=uCTc3QT4Wak&feature=youtu.be)
-
@lefishy i think if any part of a game is a distraction from the "game" then that game is pretty terrible.
-
@edjeff My favorite part is that the source is actually well put together and follows standards. Like fuck it would validate if it were real

@S0phieH can you borrow someone else's?

@S0phieH that's fair. (CUBES used my then-employer's Unity license)
-
@pippinbarr hm. Been thinking about making an editor: very much in the entities/components style. Am curious about yr process now.
-
@simonv3 I mean, as a general rule my answer is "yes". I don't actually know what the Leap is like to interact with, though.
-
@simonv3 but - happy to send you the source to fuck with I'd you like (image effects will need Unity Pro, but that's icing)
-
Goddamn, but there have been some good @heftyseamstress tweets in the last month.
-
@tef btw, you are making me legitimately excited to go to SF, not just sagging at the work I need to do before then.

Imagine: a version control system that both coders and artists could use and understand.

@LewieP you completed HM without finding the lock on? Oh wow.
-
@LewieP Yeah, I found it a revelation when I played a build with it in (after playing earlier builds some)
-
@radiatoryang @daphaknee I agree with all but one of these points. Although our party is sold out now, so I guess that's okay.
-
@zoewi I'm going to eat some burritos.

@aliendovecote @Carachan1 you're real good at it, too

@rubzo yo, I'm awake

@psychicteeth @Pisscress oh! this sounds like the thing I need.

-
@tjheuvel @DGoodayle Also worth noting that C# now has a real dynamic type ("dynamic") where errors are caught at run time, not compile time
-
@DGoodayle @tjheuvel It's really useful when interfacing with objects created by a dynamic programming language. Saves a lot of ballache.
-
@DGoodayle @tjheuvel Like: deserializing a fairly complex bit of JSON with LitJSON: you don't have to recreate the entire structure C#-side.
-
@tjheuvel @DGoodayle I just declared something dynamic, and Unity compiled it without exploding in my face: so I guess yes!
-
@tjheuvel @DGoodayle there was always Boo, and it's "duck" type... but then you need to write programs in Boo.
-
@tjheuvel @DGoodayle Hm, that's weird I'm not seeing that. It's even giving me a warning for that line (as I'm not using the variable).
-
@DGoodayle @tjheuvel Yeah! I wrote Hell Is Other People in it. Nice language (& I loved "duck" as I said), but you suffer for it's rarity.
-
@tjheuvel @DGoodayle oh, wait, no, as soon as I do more than just declare it, it throws an error. :<
-
@radiodario hey, you coming to my birthday thing on Thursday?
-
@Gillespionage Karaoke! Either at home or out, not decided yet.
-
@radiodario Yeah!
-
@zoequinnzel @christinelove there's a bunch of texteditors that will silently treat spaces as tabs for you -- what you using?
-
@zoequinnzel @christinelove Hm, I don't use either of those myself, but "Soft tabs" in jedit.org/users-guide/indent.html might help?

I revisited old code. It's not as simple as I thought it was when I was writing it.

@john_brindle @pippinbarr It may just be the anti-game fanatic in me, but that term feels like it might trivialize them?
-
@john_brindle @pippinbarr Great concept, though. Whatever the name turns out to be, it's a damned useful thing to have named.
-
@john_brindle @pippinbarr (and already I start picking at it...) if the horse responds, that's a reward, though, right?
-
@john_brindle @pippinbarr So how large does the system have to be to count as ludic? Is a side-quest incidental?
-
@Slaktus @john_brindle @pippinbarr So if the side quest merely nets you flavour text? If the horse can get bored of being patted?
-
@Carachan1 @richmcc @_davidbrown The weird thing about Opium is that the decor is actually quite nice. Not that you'd notice, of course.
-
@john_brindle @richardhofmeier Oh, I think this is a more useful term for making than theorizing. For the same reason as the chilli, tbh.
-
@john_brindle @richardhofmeier the precise consequences of an action can happily be unclear to a player, but not to a designer.
-
@garethjenkins No, but RPS comment threads were taking it as a known fact it's on EC2.
-
@garethjenkins I think they fucked their scalability by locking regions to particular servers (I can think of reasonable reasons for this).

@LewieP Relatedly, are you coming to my birthday party?

@agAitcheson Thanks! Doin' pretty tolerably alright!
-
@VitaminPowered Or they borrowed them, or they're contracted out, or they have a devkit, or
-
@fastramdesign I disagree! I think the interface is a great place to start designing a game from, and the device basically is the interface.
-
@VitaminPowered Yeah, you really ought to do your homework. (Is why the tweet was in the abstract, not a confession or calling anyone out.)
-
@robinlacey I like people giving me money. You understand.
-
@john_brindle @GTElephant The biggest boon for me is that you can do unoptimised shit and it'll still run fine.
-
@LewieP Hm. It's a difficult one. Are they even customers, technically? I mean, there's a reason it's a crime to receive stolen goods.

@Carachan1 @jennatar I'm worried no-one will know me next week

@Carachan1 @jennatar But on the plus side, the word on the street is @PHIL_FISH might be impersonating me.

-
@jennatar @Carachan1 where are you guys, I wanna hang out, I'm at the Irish Bank.
-
@patrickashe @HilariousCow my drunken heart surged at the idea of hanging with you guys. And then I crashed down again.
-
It's great not being in London and being able to afford taxis.
-
@Babylonian @terrycavanagh @jennatar @chipzel what what what, who are you in life, I was also there!
-
@xra wait wait wait. Are you at GDC? I want to meet you!
-
@mcclure111 ugh, generally you're reliant upon virtual machine provider for tools to kill it.
-
Let's read twitter only once 01:49 happens, let's see all the people you coulda met talking earlier.
-
@Babylonian I was the guy with like... brown hair? Also a stripey jumper and yellow trousers. And called George.
-
Alarm set for 6 hours and 8 minutes from now.
-
Last night I got to hang out with Drunk @jennatar, and it was great.
-
This morning has been spent walking repeatedly between radioshack and our apartment. Less great, to be honest.
-
@renaudbedard I saw on twitter and it blew my mind.
-
@jennatar and I love you for it
-
@xra yeah! Been running Royale stuff, sitting in Yerba Buena park at the mo. Generally around West on the ground.
-
Hokra signups start in half an hour. West Hall, ground level.
-
And the winner of the Rumpus Royale Hokra World Championships is: SPORTSFRIENDS

@brandonnn we were the other side of the room being interviewed. We're back now! Guess we'll see you back at the apt?
-
TALKS ATTENDED: 0 #gdc

Douglas Wilson would rather brush his teeth than eat.
-
@jakevsrobots I still haven't met you! I wanna meet you!
-
Wait, so is there like a ton of porno mags in this one? Yeah, that's the main update, loads more porn.
-
Party tonight.
-
Waiting for the shower currently.
-
Nights of drinking, mornings of walking to RadioShack.
-
Look at our wonderful tournament! Thanks @brianmtaylor! btphotographer.com/2013/03/game-over/
-
@Carachan1 @jennatar I can confirm this is 100% true.
-
@tef yeeeah, I think so. Marie is sitting next to me organizing furiously.
-
Why design no-one make stuff that looks like a music visualizer but doesn't require music?
-
Apparently the ladies toilets play maroon 5. There's no music in the mens. I don't know how I feel about this.
-
@mcclure111 I gotta do party setup!
-
@mcclure111 I am watching a vine of a thing that happened 5 minutes ago 5 meters from here.
-
Maybe I should do my lostlevels talk on GDC badge job titles.
-
People I know on the internet but have never met keep vining people playing QWOP at the Royale stand I just left.
-
There's a secret game at our party, not announced on the lineup.
-
Hey, this all seems to be working!
-
Our party is playing Kyaru Kyaru Panic.
-
Talks attended: 0 #gdc Maybe today will be the day...
-
@mcclure111 I will! I'm talking too, come to mine!
-
@Carachan1 @dkanaga what? Come to lost levels!
-
Another GDC, another conversation about how great Aubrey is and about how he should make his damn game already.
-
@mcclure111 whaaaat! I'm heading now. I guess I can fish myself from the bucket.

-
RT @doseonetweets: doseone cheats in SamuraiGunn Tournaments...
-
@nachimir @HilariousCow and I've been talking about how great you are and about how you should stop messing about and make your bloody game.
-
@HilariousCow further, "why the hell isn't Aubrey over here?"
-

-
@psychicteeth @HilariousCow @S0phieH having just got back from it... you're not missing a good time.
-
@psychicteeth @HilariousCow @S0phieH I mean, like, a good time could be found, but you would have to look past a ludicrous one.
-
@whatisian @droqen oh man! I hadda leave as well, but it was so great.
-
I have the next hour at GDC and I have nothing I need to be doing. What should I do? I guess I could interview someone.
-
@jakevsrobots @santaragione @smestorp awww, that sucks, shame not to have spoken to you properly. Next time!
-
RT @asponge: My boot soles have seemingly cheery facts about an Audrey Keating, born 5/13/83 in Boise, but each step casts the other in ...
-
@Carachan1 I am heading to your mansion.
-
@mcclure111 oh yeah! I have been eating Chinese, but I'll be there soon.
-
GDC talks attended: 1 (and that was kind of cheating, as I was speaking)
-
This week I got to play Train, and then I missed @porpentine and @terrycavanagh s talk because John Romero was telling me about it.
-
Tomorrow I don't need to get out of bed til past 8:30. I am so glad.
-
I'm doing all my GDC tweets all at once, at the end.
-
Three completely good events happened this week: our party, lost levels and a meetup in a cafe for live videogame event organizers.
-
(One of those shouldn't get to be inspiring, but they all were. They all so so were)
-
I just bought an amazing sweatshirt from this Chinese restaurant.
-
Anyone who's about into the start of next week, let me know, we can hang out properly, not GDC style.
-
@mcclure111 aw, you're breaking my heart! (But yes, it is, and yes, likewise)
-
RT @zoewi: Keita Takahashi @v21 @KommanderKlobb @tigershungry @nachimir talk about Tenya Wanya Teens #egw #gdc vine.co/v/bj05lJh2LiQ
-
@Babycastles just outside, lemme in!
-
I got to sleep past 8:30 and I am happy.
-
What's a good diner around Misson? I've not eaten good diner food all week, and that seems wrong.
-
@tef "good"
-
@tigershungry @Carachan1 except that one guy
-
For the record, "a UK-based company that puts the social into social games" is an almost completely inaccurate description of Wild Rumpus.
-
But Keita is great at interviews: edge-online.com/news/gdc-2013-keita-takahashi-presents-tenya-wanya-teens/
-
@compositeredfox I'm in Dolores Park, but I'd like to kill some videogames.
-
It's half 3 in the afternoon, and I'm pleasantly drunk in a park.
-
Wish there were more bottomless brunch mimosas in London.
-
@tef I'm in the park
-
@JoeCavers nope! Coming back Wednesday night.
-
On my way to @dkanaga's John Zorn thing m.facebook.com/events/438680792881010/
-
@radiatoryang @smestorp truffled? I don't even know what this word means.
-
On the hard post-GDC comedown still, I think.
