Hey, I’m not sure if it fixes what you were worried about, but there was a new release that fixed more than a few issues.

Furthermore the creator of a 3.X gdnative project (Enu) is involved so that may be interesting longer-term.

Linux specific: XFCE has window manager tweak settings (in accessibility tab) that makes any maximized window effectively borderless (combined with auto-hide panel, of course).

Games are weird though so the ones that are fixed at native-res when windowed (NO maximize) don’t benefit from that unfortunately. I personally have an ultra-minimal window theme that reduces that issue (it’s only 12px off the top if you don’t move it up). EDIT: I think Smallscreen is the smallest default window theme, though the sides and bottom of the window are non-0 so that adds difficulty to placement.

I think it should be on the moon with a Black-Mesa-branded rocket (with a gnome on-board), for thematic reasons. It’s no Xen, but you could probably add some decorations and even without that it’d be a better match than Italy.

Not sure about dodgeball though, I think area combat would fit more as well. Just make sure to have first-aid stations and have everybody sign waivers.

…or maybe you should just do free meet-ups with people to play dodgeball or talk-about/play your favorite games etc. (and maybe you’ll find some overlap) without it being some record-breaking event?

Hail to KING baby DAIRY.

I dunno, do you think it’s too rough for prototypes or jam-like games?

Seems to me like many of the issues are likely specific, workaround-able stuff. It’s mainly developed by 1 person, so pretty much any type of involvement (even posting issues or showing off projects) could help improve the future of the project.

In some cases you can keep your logic in its own file and not dependent on any engine. For instance I made a (non-game) software demo (number converter) for the 3.X bindings and then easily redid the GUI and rewired it for the 4.X bindings. (similarly I made a polygon-from-text-format parser for Naylib, I could transfer it but Godot has polygon editing so less need there)

I haven’t done enough to consider myself a programmer, but I could’ve written your post. It hits a niche that I have long wanted from programming.

You should check out the Godot 4 bindings if you haven’t already (gdext-nim, see my post on [email protected]). There’s also one for Raylib (specifically, Naylib).

My biggest functional gripe (that I can say for certain is not just me) was that support for (Bellard’s) TCC was dropped. It was nice for quick prototyping, though Clang is a pretty efficient middleground/default.

Raster storage tech was a mistake.

TL;DW: changed name as test–>couldn’t change back because of new YT content policy.

This just seems like explaining the difference between GPU-bound vs CPU-bound scenarios, and pointing out how generational improvements have made a big impact there.

Also, probably something about diminishing returns on the computation needed/accepted for games. Or the other side of the coin, the rising floor (with newer hardware) of what negligible CPU usage can achieve (also something like multiseat or server usage).

EDIT: I should say it both reaffirms how good of a deal I got on a 2700 in mid-2019, and is a good thing to remember on how much better new (Zen) cores are. (probably not upgrading any time soon though and still using a 1050Ti as well, though I don’t really need an upgrade anyway)

More, Mu6ariz (step forward for M6riz).

Also with the game here clicking on dev/publisher info goes to a curator page (where the game doesn’t even seem to show aside from the name/thumbnail), so that’s probably how they can easily create/rename (not saying intent, but certainly doesn’t help with shovelware vibe).

I can’t wait to hear about the unforeseen consequences on this one. Although it will probably just be more alienation.

Is there any modern FOSS that can export to .SWF?

Otherwise I think if I were capable of making something it’d either be 2D/3D polygonal via Godot or maybe simple animation via Wick Editor.

Also for some context, the contest itself seems to be long done.

The deadline has been extended and is now April 20th.

I’m guessing there’s probably a better jam results/overview page with entries somewhere.

Not sure what you think I’m arguing, I’m just talking in the context of the loneliness epidemic.

The royal you.

I was not really talking about family, but that is still a thing. A child may feel unloved because their parent(s) spend too much time working, or because of conditions they are forced to endure. Even if the parents are doing their best.

Needing to “learn” what love is, completely in-line with what I’m saying though. Specifically because having love and finding love are vastly different. Also a whole lot more blocking factors for finding, different situations.

I mean, that sounds like saying we forgot the power of money or friendship. I think we know, but when we’re talking about any sort of economy it’s easy to see it as a game that you aren’t properly prepared to play.

A maid just doesn’t make sense for fellas such as myself in this economy, Neil. I’ve been known to cook a succulent meal or two.

Don’t talk of love, well I’ve heard the word before.

It’s hard to make that change

When life and love turns strange… and old.

To give a love, you gotta live a love.

To live a love, you gotta be “part of”

I remember Retroarch being a bit confusing/unfriendly last time I tried it, but it was so long ago, that it might not be the case anymore.

Similar for me. Something wasn’t working and it took me a while to figure out that some issue was preventing the settings from saving/loading properly.

I waited a long while to try it

Not sure if you’re using some non-proprietary driver or what, but I’m not worried about switching over. Maybe nice with AMD GPU, unlikely for me though.

I don’t want GNOME or Plasma (I’ve had issues with Plasma on X11 when I tried it) so that could be it, too.

Just grep the source for “wayland” and you’ll see what I mean.

Not sure if there is more to this, but it seems like it screws over X11 users for no reason (I’m still using a 1050Ti).
