Yeah great advice, thank you. I have a background in coding to an extent for work (JavaScript and SQL mainly) so I’m familiar with some concepts so not starting from zero per se but yes definitely using it as an advisor etc. rather than it writing anything for me.
Hah, thanks ! The chances of it ever being more than a bare bone project on my laptop are slim to none, but having fun so that’s all that matters right now I guess
That’s good to know about the red in general, I will look into that before actually sharing something real. To be honest this is unlikely to ever run anywhere other than my local drive! :)
I’m using @godotengine.org by the way. It seems fantastic so far. EXTREMELY early days, but from a day 1 perspective with no experience of game dev tools it seems incredibly approachable and, most importantly, understandable and approachable.
I’m invested in Kiryu’s story already (only just got out of prison) and feel a need to find / rescue Yumi as soon as possible! I’ve got so much to play these days, but just looking forward to getting back to this kind of old, kind of weird gem.
The love and joy @jonjagger.bsky.social and @beauschwartz.com express for Yakuza has finally convinced me to give them a try. I started Yakuza Kiwami this morning and it doesn’t disappoint. I’m not a big anime person but this is giving those vibes with a mix of weird, but then a quite deep story.

I found a really charming game (Forgotten Seas store.steampowered.com/app/2168260/...) on Steam a couple of days ago. It’s made by a husband and wife duo. It’s got the ‘small game with purchased assets’ vibe but, as I say, super charming vibe and it’s genuinely fun and nice to support this pair.

Claude Code to help me learn as part of this test project. I’m not sure if that’s frowned upon in this area but it’s a hobby project, as I say, so in this instance it’s not going to be taking work from real devs, for what it’s worth. It will be supplementing learning, not replacing it.
Working title is ‘Commander Spleen’. Umm, as I say, working title! It speaks to the Commander Keen inspiration that I will, hopefully, go for. For now though, this is a test project only to learn / play around with Godot and have some fun. Disclaimer, if it’s needed, but I’m using Claude …
Ok, let’s give this a try … day 1 of trying to make a game 😂 #GameDev
Anyone playing Runescape 3 Leagues? I've been enjoying it a lot but I've hit a wall in progress that would require me to do things I've not even done on my main account so I'm going to bail out I think. It was fun though.

Will they actually go out and vote though? It seems sadly not.

BREXIT IS OVER.

52% would vote Remain.
Only 29% would vote Leave.
49% want a rejoin referendum.

The public has moved on.
But the government hasn’t.

Brexit lost the people. The mandate has flipped.

And now, public wants a say on Europe, on rights, on who we are.

I finally made the move to Android a few weeks ago after using iOS 26 on my iPhone 16. It’s actually nice to have a plain looking OS again haha. Until you use another OS you don’t appreciate how slow Apple has made iOS feel with all of the animations and extra fluff.

Oh, fantastic. Looking forward to it! You've convinced me, indirectly, to give MtG Arena a try, so hopefully this isn't a slippery slope! 😊

Few snaps taken at the Nothing (3) and Headphone (1) launch in Soho, London yesterday. I'm absolutely loving both products so far.

I've been watching @jonjagger.bsky.social's excellent Magic card opening videos over the last couple of days. I know nothing about Magic, but it's a great chill stream to watch on the background whilst doing some random WoW things. Great work Jon!

100% it should not, I agree.

I completely get not wanting to walk away from a horrendous person like that but genuine question, why would you use X anymore? This nasty, disgusting person aside the place is full of that. Why support that horrible place and fuel Musks grim AI slop machine with context?

From what I know about that cesspool, working with the government there seems *very* on brand
