@myonehen Hope you feel better soon 🙏

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@mino_dev Congrats!

@ThomasMoonKang Amazing technology. And maybe reveals something about people: AI is really just complex pattern matching. And yet it looks...intelligent, even artistic at times. Perhaps all intelligence is just pattern matching. A thought both freeing, and a little sad.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@ThomasMoonKang Haha I love these filters. It’s so unfortunate scams so greatly out weigh legit requests :( even things like keymailer are full of scams. My game was pirated before release from one of them. Never using any services like them again.

@myonehen Burn out is real. But from personal experience I find taking time off can sometimes feel "fake." If you find yourself in that camp, just know there's others that feel the same. If not, then please teach me how XD.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@henxtie It looks so good! Your colors are always so pretty!

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@steebiru I’m not an artist but I do game dev and this feeling is so relatable. I still fight these feelings, but what helped me was reflecting on why I do this. The “why” and the goal of it all. I hope that question can help you too <3 and make some details fall away.

@tuneycorn Haha we should chat in DM or Discord XD 200 characters or whatever isn’t enough.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@tuneycorn With one monitor desk space is fine. With dual or triple. The stand for the monitor will block the left/right side of your desk making it feel really small. Arms help this a lot by not having anything on the desk under the monitor.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@tuneycorn XD oh no worries, I love talking about this stuff. So the problem with stands is desk space. Monitors should be about an arm length away when sitting straight. Try it. Then sweep your arm left and right. Then imagine a monitor stand where your hand is.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@tuneycorn Those are the dual ones. You want to get two of the single clampy things with one arm each instead. A bit more expensive, but to get the better ergonomics, the second monitor has to come out pretty far. And most dual arms don’t reach far enough.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@Raseruuuuu oh hey! I didn't know you played! cool! Pendulum tho...so much reading, I just negate when the game says I can and hope for the best.😵‍💫

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

Software engineering is really the science of spending large amounts of time to make something do exactly the same thing it did before...just in a different way.

Summer told me we're part of a sale! If you've been waiting to try out a unique card game, consider this one! https://t.co/5oemLv36ho

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@henxtie Congrats on the change! The old name isn't being thrown away, it's just changing to take you to a new destination. I hope you get there, wherever you ultimately decide. And I hope to go along for the ride as long as I can 🥳

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@ProPinstripe Mage is one of my favorites too! It's strong, but not broken. And the combos are very flexible. It never feels like a flow chart to play, but also doesn't melt the brain too much.

[Jaron Kong @KongJaron]

@LanceMcSteel @ffedconnect @QuantumCardGame this is cute!

Syncro Bursts really speed up the game by instantly maxing all weapon charges. Enables the big plays. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev
