@reduzio I'm still waiting to publish our first game that uses Godot. Would be excited to find one. An easier path for targeting all consoles will only help.

@c_pruett I have never had more entertainment from O Canada than with this game.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

Go buy this game now!! You will not regret it.

@optimisticindie Wait until you learn about this new thing called "Play to earn"

@Winter @BillandTed3 @JohnMorzen With 1+2 being such a big part of my growing up I was really afraid of being disappointed with 3, but it was such a breath of fresh air with everything going on at the time in the world. ❤️🎸🤘

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@c_pruett That's an apt observation.

@AgentTinsley Bonus points for transparency and truth in advertising.

@Sosowski Rendering: Simulating how we perceive light. Speed of light is super fast.

Web: Simulating the printing press. It takes a long time to print a bunch of newspapers.

Not an April Fool's joke.

[Devolver Digital @devolverdigital]

Introducing Return to Monkey Island, a new game by Ron Gilbert that picks up where Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge left off.

@TabGames3 @matttwood How are you not making a tattooing VR game if that's the case?!?

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@not_Tena Bad take.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@DevRelCallum Only gotcha is Proton support for an unreleased game if you're doing anything "different" on the tech side.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@Sosowski This is why you only run Linux on bare metal and then do PCI passthrough to run Windows in a VM. A bit harder on a laptop if it doesn't have a dedicated GPU that you can passthrough but this kind of crap is common now.

@seriouslyclara FYI, they are attracted to ear wax.

@cfloydtweets Sounds like you have a GDC talk topic.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@cfloydtweets Do you know anyone who's successfully used LFS for gamedev? I know a lot who have tried and failed.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@cfloydtweets As long as you only use clone, commit and push you're golden*.

*with reasonably sized non-binary files.

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@AgentTinsley Does out of the oven count?

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

If we still all can't agree on what "indie games" means, maybe it doesn't mean anything? Maybe it can mean multiple things?

[John Bartkiw (@[email protected]) @HumanoidSaver]

@mikekasprzak I only do basic USB switching, and use it sparingly, but this cheap solution has worked well for me.
