Current thing: Stomp City
Always thought the tension was that it's not entirely clear what is being celebrated, in true British fashion

Nah, nah, on discord

Congratulations, seeing a lot of people talk about it <3

You're just saying that because you're a cusper and don't belong in either camp

Please do not remind me that the mayor of New York is much younger than me, that's not allowed

Now the question is, do I respond to you with an early-2000s meme in order to continue the joke/perpetuate the confusion, or do I just accept that ...

If Phil Fish would just let internet randos harass him, the internet randos would have nothing to harass him about so clearly he has brought this on himself

Just play Ridge Racer 7 and Ikaruga in front of her until she gets it, nbd

Hm, saw their show last year (only set me back 40 bucks, viva España) and I rather enjoyed it. Merciless percussion-driven noise with barely legible yet still perceptible rhythm schemes ... felt like being inside a thrash compactor alongside a jazz ensemble falling down an infinite staircase. Yay?

We mock our billionaires for their hubris and delusion, but those fellas are practically pedestrian compared to their trillionaires

"And it will whisper sweet nothings to you, it will secrete the proper dosage of ersatz saliva to moisten its synthetic lips and let the finest servos apply highly personalised mechanical pressure to your earlobe, tickle your neck with its astroturf eyelashes."

Not having any vision and just throwing themselves blindly after every conceivable bandwagon after the initial trauma of not winning the war despite having the literal biggest guns also probably didn't help

(And I was not a well-established indie, I was just a brash dude with a couple of admittedly promising and already funded indie games and ehhhhh let's say a healthy dose of youthful exuberance bordering on self-delusion)

Absolutely, but they're choosing not to. Nintendo has a long and storied tradition of snubbing all kinds of developers for apparently very arbitrary reasons. I remember people being outright shocked when I managed to bag a deal with Nintendo back in the mid-2010s through sheer force of personality.

Nah, they just have a tight content strategy in order to control the image of the platform. They'll open up eventually, but for now Nintendo wants to ensure the early software is unique and high-quality and avoid a rush of shovelware

I would be 100% fascinated to hear how you did the physics in Teslagrad on Vita in Unity, that sounds like absolute wizardry
November 4, 2025 at 12:00 AM
Custom engine and compute shaders. Just the goddamn Unity engine runtime strains the Switch, anyone doing good work on that platform is either aiming way down low or grinding bare metal

(Fun fact: I used to go watch anime every Friday in an auditorium named after Simula at UiO in the Norwegian Computing Center.

I had no idea at the time.)
