"generative fill" doubles as a great slur for the meaningless garbage people are churning out with ai.

Now that totk is out it's time we finally address the elephant in the room: the weapon durability system in botw

Been watching 90's conference talks about the internet lately, and ended up at a few similar presentations about AI recently. Huge tonal shift. Yesterday's futurists were all about the carrot, but today's are all about the stick. We're past tech utopianism and into tech sadism.

@authorblues What a flex

[authorblues @authorblues]

Starting a little devlog for ZZT stuff. I'll probably write a bit about animation and puzzle design next time, but I just wanted to organize some thoughts first.

.@MitchellZemil and I went all out with season 2! It's the same general format but we got ambitious and really shook things up a bit with some of these episodes. We covered some fascinating stuff no other show would ever look at. Please look forward to it!

Replaying Celeste A sides after learning some of the advanced tech is a power trip

This isn't a prank, it's listed on EGS. It seems to be a DOSBox wrapper around zzt.exe

Of course, you could always try one of the modern ports of the engine (like Zeta or ClassicZoo) and play some fun ZZT worlds, both the original and the huge library of fanmade worlds.

To a lesser extent, this also applies to the simple double jump.

[ʟᴜɪs ʜᴇʀɴᴀɴᴅᴇᴢ⚡ @Beetlenaut]

seeing indie devs posting vids of character controllers that can: wall jump, grappling hook, grind,triple jump, hoverboard, skateboard, teleport, web sling, fly, and other fantasy traversals

but seemingly not understanding that once you can do those, your worlds have to be HUGE
