I’ve actually found Sol delivers great results with Odin, despite there not being much Odin code available. I think it is able to work well with it because: - It is a rather simple language - It has a lot of very useful libraries already bu

I have personally had three conversations (2 online, 1 in person) where the other person has said, almost verbatim, “I have never had a typing error in JavaScript”. Two of these people were people whose work I respected, so it could not und

I would say yes, but only because I have played that game to death since childhood and would really only play it now with a more analytical/developer mindset, so the illusion is no longer present.

For 2D games I can usually tell if it is made in Unity, and I don’t even develop with Unity. Hollow Knight for instance does not get me immersed like I do for Celeste or Bolatro. When I look at Hallow Knight I see moving animated sprites in

Sorry, but we aren’t at the “press a button to build a game/app” yet.

I don’t think it’s an outlandish take at all. You can possibly also put orthotics and spectacles in the list of interventions as solutions to problems largely induced by unnatural adaptations to an unnatural environment.

A partial solution is to put DD/MM/YYYY (or the appropriate format) as the input placeholder. You could also display the format as a tooltip when the input field is focused. IMO this is better than dealing with date pickers.

I’m not the commenter that you asked, but I have also built a cross platform game framework with backends for SDLGPU and WebGL. The answer to your question is pretty basic. AI did it for me. I asked it to create a canvas-like API, noting th

I’m not at my computer so I can’t remember the exact behavior of this situation, but was OP more so referring to autocomplete abilities of typescript? I think they were saying, you first must know if the object barks or meows, you must firs

It depends on what you are doing. I really like it for creating animated characters. Resprite has some nice feature for creating tilesets. Standard raster editing software might be better for big static scenes.

I’d highly recommend going with SDL if it’s 2D. IMO libraries like MonoGame, Love2D, LibGDX only offer small conveniences over SDL with big negative tradeoffs, sacrificing portability, quality of libraries, and conventions. The downsides of

I’m not criticizing the library of SNES. I have very fond memories playing SNES games. It was more in response to the statement that there are dozens of 10/10 games on SNES. Let me clarify, there are not many 10/10 games on SNES (

This might be a nitpick, but I could probably only count 5-10 SNES games that would be considered 10/10 IMO, and not many that I think are worth sinking decent time into these days, compared to something like Burnout Revenge - a great

Wait, SDL is no longer relevant? What is the alternative?

This is tangential to what you are saying, but does it blow any else’s mind that we just so happen to exist right at the start of the universe’s existence? If the universe is going to have a habitable window of however many quadrillion year

As someone not really familiar with Rust, this sounds intriguing, but I don’t full understand. Do you have any links that can or examples that could clarify this for someone who is just starting out with Rust?

by JoeyJoJoJr 1y ago
Interesting. Does this mean it could be used for creating games for NES, SNES, Genesis, etc?

Can it really do interactive things though, like games? The main draw card of Flash was its excellent integration of code and animation.

Also, 2D assets are much more difficult to change later if you decide you need to change the aspect ratio or scaling later on. While a tile map is comparatively technically simple, the initial choice of tile size carries a rather critical i

FYI, you can also connect that Teensy to one of those portable gameboy style handhelds to get an experience closer to the actual M8.

The implicit assumption about drawing and writing is that it is vibe based. That’s why we do have terms like “technical drawing” and “technical writing”?

I haven’t met (IRL) a programmer who has a strong opinion on the term one way or the other. It just seems like internet outrage to me.
