It was an odd topic, create a game for this jam made me laugh, which is the most important thing.

Let me check...

A PBTA-inspired game of performance, sacrifice, and the hunger for applause.

If a book, of any kind, any genre, has reference to the life of the author, is not worth my time.

Her role in matrix reloaded is still
Unmatched. “A kisssss”

What about rules that harms other players? Seems a fun thing to write... 😇

The Bit Bet @thebitbet.bsky.social · 8d

Took a break from videogame programming (well... nobody will notice) to write a fun horror adventure that start... AFTER A TPK!!!

Great suggestions. May need to program some extra skills since I’m here.

The Bit Bet @thebitbet.bsky.social · 10d

Game programming lessons so far:
2D is hard.
3D is harder.
…
So I skip straight to 4D to maximize productivity

Start making a small game project to learn 2 days ago...
and now I have:
3 unfinished prototypes,
2 emotional breakdowns,
1 pause menu that works (most of the time).

Will I ever be worthy of the masters of the past?

Well… how can I put this… if the goal is climbing Everest, I am at the “house stairs” level…

You are vastly overestimating my skills, but are all great suggestions

Trying to make a video game without graphics. Right now it’s a voice shouting “pew pew” at the player while they keep score on paper. Already smell the game of the year award.

Breaking Every Rules

Hello, friend, With this game, I decided to go bold… maybe too bold. What happens when a game literally asks you to cut the page it’s printed on ? That question became BREAK > RULES: a minimalist...

That’s a cool tool! Can’t wait to test it out

I feel the urge to move from pdf ttrpg to digital games yet it’s so complex…

I change topic a bit and wrote a dark/horror adventure brimming with body horror, political intrigue, and moral decay. #GothicHorror #TTRPG

Paper ttrpgs remind me the game lives between people.
Digital ttrpgs remind me why I hate everything man-made.

Must focus my handful of neurons on managing the party and their absurd and illogical twists, can’t bother pausing for checking rules. 🤷‍♂️

If a game require a gm screen, is too complex for me to master
