  Honestly it's kind of hilarious. An indie game asks for a device detail or two so their ban or cheating system can function, and people act like their entire life just got sold at auction. Meanwhile every single one of us opens a browser, types an address, hits enter, and hands out way more than that without even thinking twice. Consider what actually happens the moment you load a webpage. Your IP address gets sent to the server, and honestly to a bunch of other servers too, since most pages...

  I despise people's opinions about how others "should" play a game. Doesn't matter which one. Fighting, rhythm, FPS, whatever. Why do you have this undying moral mission to dictate how someone else is allowed to play? This all started because someone (not naming names) decided it was a great idea to announce that "fighting games should not be played with a keyboard." Well, guess what? I had no choice back then. Sometimes, I still don't....

  I just remembered a time when I had gotten a BrailleSense Polaris. This was before the 6 came out which is what I have now. And that one was a school district Polaris, not my state-provided personal 6 like I have now. But that's not the point. The point is, the Polaris was still very new. And I remembered being curious as to what would happen, if one were to backup and reset the device from the Android side. The result? The unit couldn't boot to its main OS. They connected it to...

  Note: Claude helped me with this, as my explanation attempt at first was rather... incorrect. That being said, here's the post.
Speaking as a dev who uses this exact timer based footstep system in my own game, I wanted to lay this out because I keep seeing people say our running speed is too fast, and honestly I think that's based on comparing two things that aren't the same at all. In mainstream visual games, footstep audio is tied to animation keyframes, not to actual p...

  Hey everyone! A big, hopefully final update just went out for Golden Crayon to beta testers, packed with performance improvements and bug fixes across the board, plus a few smaller features rounded out along the way. Things are in really good shape right now, and we're getting very close to a full 1.0 release. I'm hoping this is one of the last updates before that happens. One heads up. macOS and Linux support is still a bit rough right now, and I'm actively working on it...

  Hey guys. I am afraid I have some bad news. Golden Crayon Version 1.2 came out yesterday, and in that timeframe I had the beginnings of a sore throat. So I got ready for the moment we all love. Woke up this morning. My throat's killing me, and we all know where that's going. In a nutshell, I am, or am going to be sick. I do not know for how long. I'll try and do some work, but I understand that I have to rest and keep myself hydrated, and take whatever concoctions my moth...

  I'm quite amused to say the least. I'd say it proves why I do not post on the audio games forum. My reputation and my track record is screwed up for sure, but, daaaamn. Some people are just so cold, instantly assuming things without even asking the developer first. 😂 And people wonder why I do not post new games there.

  Follow-up to my earlier post, because I realize I left some things vague. What's actually different this time is bug reports go through staff outreach and the ticket system, not through random forum threads or DMs. That system already tracks status from open to fixed. If it's felt like reports go nowhere, it's probably because they didn't go through there. Use the system, it doesn't vanish. And to be clear on the line I drew. it's not about tone. B...

  This is about Package Hero. Wow. I have been dealt quite a hand, and I can't put them back in the deck to reshuffle it because the dealer vanished. I sold my company at least 6 times before this happened, until I was delivering 100 quad plus packages per second. Come to find that when I logged back in to see my supposedly glorious delivery status, there's some message about adjustments and whatnot. I clicked it away, took a quick look at my coins, bought some vehicles and closed...

  It was fine at first. Someone had to do it. You are not the sort to make a fuss, so you pulled your hat down and you got on with it. But this? No. This has gone too far. You're cold. You're hungry. You're soaked to the bone from a whole night of dropping down other people's chimneys, and your boots have not been dry since the second house. There is snow in places you did not know snow could get to. And your fellow elves? Sitting in their nice little chairs in the...

  Well, they caught you. Not arrested, of course. Elves don't get arrested, there's no paperwork for it. They just put you somewhere warm and quiet with the door shut, then phoned somebody who phoned somebody else, and by the time anyone worked out what to do with an elf, half the night was gone. You're out now. Don't ask how. But Christmas morning is three minutes away and there are still presents in your sack!

  My go-to mastering chain in Reaper 1. JS: 4-band EQ, general tonal cleanup/shaping, band settings vary per mix (this is the "listen and fix problems" stage, not a fixed recipe). 2. ReaXcomp, starting from the "mastering 3-band" preset, with overall gain set to -1 dB. Often it doesn't need any further adjustment, since the preset already balances the compression across the mix on its own. When it does need help, I nudge individual band thresholds or rat...

  The most concerning thing about explicit bodyparts is you can say the most casual thing and it'll sound very dirty. You could say, "he whipped out his screwdriver," and instantly people are like... coughcough. Ahem.

  Hello everyone. Yes, I’m writing this at the crack of dawn. To be exact, 2:37 AM. I figured I'd rather say this sooner than later. After nearly a week of the disasters this game has served up, there's no reason to keep sitting on it. I'll be direct. I knew from the start this wasn’t going to go smoothly. I braced for impact. The second I lifted the shade on that temporary server lockdown, I knew something was going to break. That's exactly why I said, days before release, that th...
