I'm Irish so I don't have to look away! Do what you want though, it's sacrilege to my mother that I make porridge in the microwave and not on the hob and it turns out great so 🤷‍♀️

I need to mention something that happened yesterday. I had a negative review of my game & an irate player in my Discord, talking about bugs they claimed were longstanding, mentioned all over Steam and Reddit, and never fixed. After some probing they admitted they had been asking ChatGPT for hints.

I have this idea for a video game where there's a fast travel option but every time you fast travel there's a 12% chance instead of taking you to your destination it drops you off in an entirely different place and then there's an ultrahard on-foot section. I call it "the Toronto Transit Commission"

They were so close!
A cloud of smoke fills the screen, a line of text in a black box at the bottom of the screen reads "Ensnared in a transporter trap!" It's the elden ring teleporter chest!

yes but I think there's such thing as going too deep so as to become inaccessible. I prefer a less complicated explanation that can be built on than an all encompassing overwhelm.

great thread so far Alex, must have missed the original on twitter you mentioned and i regret that. It's a really cohesive theory on the colour use and tracks so well. Wish I was this good at analysing colour use 💖

I am looking for 2-4 days a week work on games projects as a VFX or environment artist.
I wear other hats that might be useful too, like level design & art direction. I'm also fairly technical.

I have indie rates too!

(VFX in next post below)

This is FANTASTIC. I knew it was based in Ireland, from and Irish dev but I was blown away by some smart it is. First person detective game with some super smart time and investigation mechanics. Out in just a few weeks.

Check out the demo. It's seriously wonderful.

Disco Elysium screenshot, wherein I am extremely rude to Harry (who I would... maybe?... date? but it isn't his looks it's more that he's self-destructive and also wearing piss-stained trousers) Dialog as follows: MIRROR - What are you doing with your die, why is your shirt hanging open like laundry on the line... What does it even *mean*? What is the message you're trying to convey? YOU - I'm twenty years old. My breasts are juicy and succulent. I am a god damn verdant field waiting to be ploughed, in a *tired 5 acres and an aging mule* kind of way. I possess a certain charm. MIRROR - That might have been true thirty years ago, but the plot is fallow and the farmer left you for a larger, newer, factory-owned operation. ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Impossible: Failure] - It's too late. Like an illuminated masterpiece by the modern master Thomas Kinkade, your value isn't what it used to be. You're dusty, poorly framed, and have lost the fleeting, almost quixotic appeal you had in the 90's. The jugs have been milked, and you're no dairy maid. You're the mule.

Watching Better Call Saul. I'm going to rewrite my old thread on the colour, imagery, and symbolism, which holds great purpose in the series, as I go.

Starting with "Uno": fundamental to the series is an image of two lawyers, with a shaft or spill of light of a particular source.
Better Call Saul screenshot: Jimmy and Kim stand in the parking garage in the dark, illuminated by a single beam of electric light. Kim is smoking. Both look depressed, or tense.

the mip bias effect can look pretty nice though for my use case.

oh right but the normals don't have a particularly noticeable effect like irl, iirc the offset vector wasn't scaled to account for aspect ratio so horizontal was distorting more than vertical.
