i'm having fun, so you should too. update: i rooted the test device, got the Mali debugger to attach, and built a minimal test scene

@tullyhansen @GalaxyKate ohhh. yeah. i've gotten knotted up in this syntax myself before.
-
@GalaxyKate @tullyhansen the bit that gets me with this case is that it breaks my expectation that the whole thing will get converted to an AST first.
-
@GalaxyKate @tullyhansen Depending on whether that comma is used in a expansion inside [] s, or in a normal expansion, it's either syntax or a literal. (yes?)

@ra i think it's actually mainly just that computers are hard. right now chasing rendering errors on low-end mobile GPUs...

-
definitely worth reading the article linked there: gamesindustry.biz/articles/2016-11-07-video-games-are-boring good thoughts on care, and listening, and games for non-gamers
-
There are people out there making good stuff that non-games people would dig. But it's hard to market to people who don't think they like it
-
The traditional best way to do this is to make something that gamers like. Then use that initial success as leverage for mainstream appeal.
-
Big limiting factor on your designs, though. Or you can hit a specific niche, draw on star appeal from elsewhere. Is "Biophilia" a game?
-
It's easy to lapse into nostalgia for a time when videogames were computer games, and blended fuzzily with other software categories.
-
That conception of games/interactive software is something I try to promote in the now. It's a viable frame! Hard to make mainstream, tho.
-
It's been great to be part of the bot community, and see how many assumptions I didn't realise games have given me.

@doougle @molleindustria (though: i am finding work a relief right now, but am not yet ready to face politics head on)
-
@doougle @molleindustria yeah, i got that. i think you two are likely to end up with better answers than me, but I would start with
-
@doougle @molleindustria this essay by @HarryGiles : harrygiles.org/2016/04/24/shock-and-care/ and an ethos from #botally about taking responsibility for work
-
@doougle @molleindustria the work you make will have an impact on the world, good or bad, big or small. design for it! take responsibility!
-
@doougle @molleindustria but, more practically: there's increasing polarization & increasing divides. yr students largely don't bridge that.
-
@doougle yeah, agreed to all that. a lot of what i said ^^ is me starting to feel the necessity to do more personally.
-
@doougle thanks! i think about making that trip all the time - hope to figure out time/money for it soon.

this update won't be very exciting, but we've started laying the ground for ones that will be.

now for some bot stuff! i heard @jonnysun made a bot on CBDQ: @tinycarebot probably the most popular bot on there rn.
-
news also filtered through about this tweet, which made me very happy. @everyboolean/797828443589091328

i started working on a new bot. starting with some dissatisfaction with the gradients on @manygradients. sneak peek:

here's another, fresh off the command line:

and then I got distracted, and made the whole thing in Unity, and long story short I'm waiting for it to go through App Store approvals now

@WordMercenary to be clear, i wasn't thinking of games journalism specifically when i made that tweet, but games as a whole.
-
@WordMercenary i was thinking specifically of people like Jenn Frank, of people who fucking fought so hard... and didn't win. Who lost.

@WordMercenary I was thinking I didn't do enough, personally. I was also thinking of Penny Arcade. And of other mealy mouthed fence-sitters.

i got curious about this tweet (new shit in Unicode!) and here is what i found @BabelStone/799587835087122432

Here are the Unicode proposal papers on Nushu: scriptsource.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=entry_detail&uid=v39xawqg64 and here's the Wikipedia page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCshu_script
-
Gondi is a language spoken by Gonds (ofc) in India. There is not a widespread native script, so it's often written in Devanagari and Telugu.
-
People have tried to fix that! In 1928, Munshi Mangal Singh Masaram invented a native Gondi script, which is what we're gonna talk about now
-
(what I'm about to post comes from the official Unicode proposal by @anshumanp unicode.org/L2/L2015/15090-masaram-gondi.pdf, which is worth seeing in full)
-
(i should also clarify that i absolutely don't know what i'm talking about, and may be making errors. but i'm interested)
-
this feels like heroic work from start to finish, tbh - both inventing the script, and now thoughtfully documenting and standardizing it.

for this game, I am roleplaying as an Emily Kaldwin who technically knows all the moves, but sometimes gets a bit flustered and kills people
-
sorry, guard just doing his reports who i choked (and was killed when i dropped a bottle of rum and it broke and then it caught fire oh no)
-
Real talk : Emily is quite bad at being Empress. This whole mess could have been avoided if she had a halfway decent spymaster. Or allies.
-
@HonestWilliam depends on too much else. Whatever loses the Republicans Congress.

@jon_ellis and I am really glad they wrote her as essentially uninterested in ruling well! It's a much more interesting writing choice.

-
@alexhern i like it less than the first one because the first one did a lot of stuff i like but hadn't seen in a long time/a big game.
-
@alexhern Dishonoured 2 does the same things, and does them better, but i saw them recently in a big game (D1, obv), so i care less
-
@alexhern i liked big vertical levels, that old immersive sim thing of problems not puzzles, stealth but also a big slashy sword for fuckups
-
@alexhern i liked the painterly "no, really, like the concept art" style, the sculpted clayey faces, the imaginative-enough setting.
-
@alexhern i have not! but housemate's PS4 also contains it, and i wanna try (i have heard a lot of good things via @notquitereal)
-
@r4vi i am starting on that path now but it seems like it might be a bit painful, and was hoping someone would have something better
-
@alexhern there was a wall i marvelled at : the specular map was texture brushstrokes! so good.
-
@alexhern actually, this part D2 is carrying off less well, but maybe that's console vs PC?

@lauraehall... losing, although some friends wouldn't. But I think we have reasonable odds. We're fighting for a view where respect is not..
-
@lauraehall... conditional on birth location, on race, on all those things. We're fighting for the internationalist view.
-
@lauraehall why are our odds good? Young people are all on our side. The way economics works fits to our view. This way of living works!

@lauraehall (and better than the parochial approach). What's more, our political enemies also live in our world.

@lauraehall Trump is a New Yorker within an international network. Farage is apparently moving to the states? All international nationalists

@lauraehall so, yeah. It's an existential fight. We didn't want it, just to live our lives well. But it's a worthy cause and possible to win

(Merlin Carter, No Signal Detected)

So I hopped up onto a balcony railing, and I spotted a guard. So I hid behind a barrel - not great, but got me out of line of sight for now.
-
The guard approached another woman (checked with my reticule, and yes, she was a civilian). Scripted conversation unspools...
-
They know each other: Guard is pressuring the civilian into stealing for her. 👎 Because she has a plan for them to run away together 👍
-
Which is a great little "hey, these guards you've been seeing as obstacles are people, and if you're killing them you should feel bad" bit
-
Finish talking, guard walks away… and spots me, because I'm just crouched behind a barrel this whole time. Whoops. Let's be non-lethal here?
-
uh, and then in the confusion I end up grabbing the civilian and start choking her out… and the guard fires at me. Brief bit of swordplay…
-
and I'm left looking at an unconscious guard, and her dead… friend? lover? sorry you killed them maybe i should reload

finding myself wanting an easy way to get the Update() Time.deltaTime from FixedUpdate. there are complicated reasons for this.
-
@joonturbo was trying out Firebase for analytics, and honestly I think the reason we didn't go with it was that it dumps files _everywhere_
-
@joonturbo (and it relies on the path explicitly, so you can't move it or it breaks. it's very over-engineered)
-
@joonturbo i don't even think it's closed-sourced! (also, we have TMPro source, and I don't think we paid extra for it??)
-
@joonturbo bad plugins it's even more worth it
-
@erbridge yep - or rather, I'm working out the deltas in Time.realtimeSinceStartup manually. deltaTime in FixedUpdate is a useful lie.
-
@erbridge p sure. This is within our weight code, so it's dealing with data stashed away from Bluetooth
-
@erbridge (dealing with : look further back in time for weight data if there's a performance hiccup)
-
@erbridge yeah, probably better this way. (I basically never use timeScale, usually insert my own intermediary time manager if I do)

which is tightly defined, and always capable of shrinking further, putting you just on the outside

I just discovered that near me is a pub with a bar billiards table. This is great news! I love bar billiards, and it's kinda rare.

(I should say: I didn't remember the rules well enough for a bearded man not to come up and correct us(in a way that made it a better game))

But: bar billiards is like billiards designed by a videogame designer. Skill is obviously still important, but it's secondary to excitement

Bar billiards throws in stuff like: timers! special 2x balls! double or nothing shots! complete reversals of fortune!
