NM found you :)

I unfortunately can't DM you here because MonoGame is under 18, according to our registered birthdate (2009). LOL. What's your handle on Discord?

Hi Aaron, We mentioned your book during yesterday's AMA. Are you on our Discord (I couldn't find you)? I was hoping to ask you a question.

Hopefully the last transition clip for a while. Got transitions from Title Screen to Game and vice versa, and then also added transition to Game Exit.

Tiny Life @tinylifegame.bsky.social · 6d

We just released a small update that fixes a couple of sort-of-major bugs that could, to everyone who has never played Tiny Life during the beta and alpha days, be considered new features. Oops!

See the changes here: tinylifegame.com/changelog/#0...

Great to see F# being used with #MonoGame!

Looks like path finding is now working.

Since it was Sunday and I touched a bit of grass, I delegated this feature to a Copilot coding agent.

So, I went to the bakery for some bread and coffee while this was being done by a bot in a PR

Oh this is #fsharp and #monogame btw

Working on checkpoints in Cosmic Jam. Right now, my plan is for them to be these mausoleums that open portals when activated. Might add some more bells and whistles as I go, but they seem to be working! #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #MonoGame #IndieGames

I updated my MonoGame-Samples repo so that every Monday the CI will now build all the samples. Look here - github.com/CartBlanche/...
I've not tested every single download yet.
Download, Unzip the sample, then run "dotnet [SampleName].dll" & that should be enough to see it running. #MonoGame

I did quite a bit of refactoring to make it possible to have two players at once. I'm controlling Dee the skunk with my keyboard and I'm controlling Ludwig with my gamepad! #screenshotsaturday #monogame #coop

In most games that support 2 player,the camera zooms out, as the players get further apart, to keep both players on screen. Another options is that as they reach "maximum distance", on that map, you switch to a split screen scenario, so no zooming required.Make it 1 screen again when they are close.

MonoGame @monogame.net · 2d

Nice! What are you using for your networking?
Is it only 2 players on 1 computer or is 2 players on local LAN supported?
