@DeoPixel Oh wow.... beautifully lit.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@bar72138 A chance. Right now Im too busy just to do the maintenance required to keep it on the stores.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

Increased in-game ads while improving average player rating. How? Blame it on scientists. #werewolftycoon #gamedev

@Alphons63 Worth noting tiny fragments came after world collector but there are sliding puzzle versions from years before. All very different.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@Alphons63 And as for whther it was "plagiarised", thats not really the right framing for why this is an issue for me. I can't claim ownership over the idea.

There are more "coincidences" which cause this to tread on what i was working on that are in none of the other similar games.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@Alphons63 Thats exactly one i mentioned. I think youre missing the aspects which make this significant for me.

Its the free collection of the pieces you use to add more to the puzzle.

That core principle is why this one in particular treads over the. Design space i wanted to eplore.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@Alphons63 And the reason thats important is it unlocked all the design space i was keen to explore.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@Alphons63 Nonehad done of them had done collect pieces from the world. There were 4 games im aware which used a similar premise all of which were sliding puzzles. You can find any which had "collect the puzzle from the puzzle" or were actual freeform puzzles rather than sliding pre 2019?

@NerkinPixel Incredible work. The colors and comp in the bottom right one especially!

First #ldjam compo entry completed in years! Play "World Collector" on Mac and Windows: https://t.co/x0m7cLp46A

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

And they've done a good job (I wish they hadn't)

So now it seems I'd be retreading old ground which is just less interesting.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

I could of course still keep working on it, but its a massive dampener on my enthusiasm when many of the odeas which couldnt fot into the jam version but I'd planned or discussed in my blog also made it into Piece by Piece just for being obvious from the core premise.

@KrakenCombo Oh the ship is lovely... thats graphxkid's but you made it i to a 3d model?

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@NC54472250 No. I experimented a bit with these interps but they produce a very specific effect.

Also be sure not to confuse this with generative llms. Very different. Dain is a classical interpolation algorithm.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

Will post this full Jack Move char tomorrow, but wanted to try dainapp on this attack and it couldn't handle the smears. Had to manually fix :P #pixelart

@qwsazxnmlkop @atacoaday1 @terrynewman @basilthegreat @grok Fortunately, a religious celebration is illegal for the council to run there.

It's a public constitutionally secular holiday market with cultural traditions (date, trees, holly, etc) predating christian adoption, peacefully walked--not interrupted--to celebrate, not provoke.

[Joe Williamson @JoeCreates]

@atacoaday1 @grok Baiting me? So you were trying to make terrible arguments? It all makes sense now.
