@DUSKdev It's really funny to me because I spent 10 years working as a chef and, let me tell you, chefs use pre-made stuff literally all the time. In a kitchen environment you simply can not waste time on things that don't absolutely need your time.

@orthonmyworm @mathemaniacyt I mean, the thing is that it's actually much less complicated when it comes to mapping something on to a torus because it's essentially the same as flat tiling. But, a sphere's curved surface is a mess to map things on to.

@miniapeur Is that not correct?

@CodeRed_dev I'm not a fan of the * and - being next to each other like that and feel like it should be "1 * (-1) =", but you're still going to get -1 either way.

@RobinPoedev Yes. We need to bring back the boss rush.

@TheNCSmaster Then just let people emulate them. 🤷‍♂️

@DylanoA4 I generalize this to "You can get away with anything as long as you can make it look like you did it on purpose."

@TylerGlaiel Yea, I think it's been pretty clear for most of the last year that Nintendo is the only one really still in the gaming hardware business.

Allow me to pitch a business proposal I thought up this morning:

[Giant Evil Robot @_GiantEvilRobot]

Starting to make art for the game before I've done much designing/coding.

It's because I have kind of a vibe driven design, and I want want to have the vibe down first.

Game developers: What "bad practice" do you insist on using despite many saying it's a poor idea? #gamedev #indiedev

Kind'a want to learn Unity just so I can make a game with a really liminal, early N64 aesthetic.

@Trunkit_ @RobinPoedev The filled square world design is the result of the way the NES & SNES stored level information in memory. Not really a deliberate design choice (even though, like all good game designers, they were able to make it look like it was a deliberate design choice).

@harristic_ Considering Mojang is owned by Microsoft, and Microsoft *LOVES* exactly this sort of AI stuff, I don't think that's likely to happen.

[Giant Evil Robot @_GiantEvilRobot]

@ess0h @CDisillusion Anything short of destroying/removing the information entirely can be reversed.

@TylerGlaiel If people are going to be speed-running the game and using that as the official timer, I'd even go as far as adding hundredths of a second.
