  We are moving to Critter Café. You should expect to get follow requests by now, and we ought to press the big red button soon enough. We probably could've done this all in one go but for some people it was jarring. So we're giving out some warning beforehand!

  Hey. A question for the fediverse at large. Does anyone involved in game development know if there is any course-type stuff for building a whole game in Love2D? Or simply anything more involved than: "Here is Asteroids and/or Pang" Most resources out there focus on single screen games but hardly any touch on... How do you load a level? How do you load and unload the game state? If you invoke a sub-screen how do you resume gameplay from where it was instead of loading anew? [The foll...

  *sees people live-tweeting how they're making a game from scratch* "OH THAT'S SO COOL, THEY HAVE IT ALL GOING ON IT'S SHAPING UP SO FAST... Why aren't we doing anything like that with our game?" *looks up code* *completely blocked about state/scene/object management over a month* Ah that'd do it.

  Classic #gamedev woes. Your fancy 16-bit style Rotisserie Concorde works perfectly at 1X resolution, but the moment you scale it up it starts rendering would-be subpixels #love2D has been a joy to use but it's hilarious how, for common of a trope as the retro platformer is, there seems no such thing as something that will take a low resolution viewport and run with it. So frustrating. Has anyone ever figured out how to make games for M2's fictional Sega Mark IV yet? Coz all we really...

  Y'know. Maybe we should be "horny on main"

  So how do we tell Milestone that Artemis can't carry a modified shuttle-type orbiter? You would need Energia 2/Uragan, or Vulkan for that. Artemis is just too weak for that. #buranposting

  You got to love computers sometimes. You have to specifically love Fedora Linux for consistently fucking up and smashing our home folder with an alias to /boot. Something tells us the update scripts see /b*?/interim and they just go ham with it. No we will keep naming our mountpoint bun and yes we will keep attatching it to the root of the drive. But holy shit how can it consistantly fuck up like that. And it is not like we can just edit fstab and call it a day. /boot now lives in /boot/in...

  DaftMania: Build To Love - A Daft Punk & TM:BTD mashup. Finally we can get this one out of our system. https://youtu.be/sXWdtoOdIWo (Also if you have any good experience doing these here's a free idea, we'd love to see this done properly) #mashup #daftpunk #trackmania #frenchhouse #shitpost #musicshitpost #music

  The Buran and the Concorde, and the Tu-144 and the Shuttle. They are all mementos of a stillborn future, a product of unparalleled optimism, of belief that things would be better, that we could do better, that we could improve and learn and better serve ourselves, that we could learn new things, about ourselves, our world, the universe, on ways that now seem long forgotten, corrupted by greed and avarice. Young'uns think Frutiger Aero is about a future that was promised but was stolen from...

  A few shots of yesterday's "5-minute shotgun doodles" art jam. Of any of y'all recognize yourselves in here there you go! That A-ing bun came great for the time limit. #ibercon #ibercon2026

  Just seen a bloody awful resto-mod video about making a cyberpunk Citroën ZX, and this guy's rationale is: "I don't like things being antropomorphic. things should not have faces, people need to focus on the function and form, not on wether it has a face or not" ... This dude is an absolute idiot. A car is something you spend a lot of time with. I want my wedges with personalities, with human-like traits. They are (sadly) a companion for the day to day errands and work commute...
