It always made me so sad when I accidentally killed a horsey during the jousting tournaments...

I think I have come to understand the issue with my game development efforts: I'm not trying to make a game, I'm playing a single player game called "game development" that I am playing for my own enjoyment and distraction.

Maybe nothing wrong with that, actually...

And I do hope that, just like the animals in the movie, the flood will subside and we all land of kinder shores with those we've learned to love and live with.

Just watched "Flow" and it gave me some pretty serious feels. With all that is going on in the world I feel like the protagonists of the story, having to abandon everything familiar as a dramatic change makes the old way of life impossible, being forcibly cast into unfamiliar shores.

Me: Yay! I got this new game working perfectly on my own home machine!

Reality: Great! Now get it working on all the other machines in the world.

Me: I... I didn't think this through at all...

What is a good example of a standard PC out there for testing game performance for a 3D game? I have a rather beefy mac and unfortunately Parallels doesn't run 3D games as advertised. #indiegamedev #gamedev #dangit

War of The Wisps is really starting to come along and start to look and play like an actual game! I guess it's actually my main project now...

Maybe the remote on the table has a small range and if you use it near the statue it moves.

Got some more time this weekend to work on the "helicopter landing" effect on the grass in War of The Wisps, also got the shafts of light effect between the trees working well too.

My favourite memory was playing Robot Odyssey and learning how logic gates work. I believe we played it on the Apple II at home.

Dug out old Atari ST and found it still worked just like it did 40 years ago. Many disks appear to have developed bad sectors, but those that run wsork flawlessly.

Playing some of these old games is helping rekindle some of the wonder and joy I felt back then. #retrogames #atarist

FTL made some great games, and "Dungeon Master" was one of them.

The 1st perspective viewpoint, the pseudo-3D graphics that pre-dated "Doom" by years, and the class and leveling system that worked by doing things, not for killing. Plus great level design and puzzles.
