I'm not talking about adding a little extra detergent to your laundry; it's when the player lets go of the movement input and if a hazard is detected then the character inertia is stopped.
Are you Pro-Skid or Anti-Skid? #indiegamedev

Do not make the rookie mistake I did in Unreal Engine by relying on delays. "I'm smart and know exactly how the game should play out, so I'll use my superior logic and just use delays." - this is actually not smart and uses inferior logic.

Read through a great art book and learned why they made stylistic choices and I have a better understanding for the art direction of the game. Cel shading is the best technique I'm aware of so I've been messing around with materials. So far:

I feel guilty whenever I'm not in engine doing stuff for the game. I know it's not rational because any work is progress, but the feeling remains.
Storyboarding is an opportunity to learn Krita anyway because that's the chosen animation program.

Cait’s post piqued my curiosity, so I checked which recent block lists I’m on. In a different thread I suggested this guy was a fed and shortly after get added to a list of “Knowers”
