Without intending it to happen, I think I need a break from dev stuff… see you all in a bit!

Dropsy is a funny, sweet, and unique game that subverts your expectations. I wish there were more games like it in the world. Cool to see it coming to Switch!

Dropsy the Clown delivers warm, damp hugs on #NintendoSwitch today!

Dropsy is a non-traditional point-and-click adventure starring a perpetually carefree clown. This updated version features an additional questline and freshly squeezed hug puzzles.

@Srekel @eigenbom This is true for fields, but not for declarations! It’s a bit confusing since you declared “field” in your struct as a const declaration.

I’m guilty of burning myself out just to keep my GitHub contribution streak going - interesting thread!

@Desttinghim I've only used PureData, of the three. It felt like a tinkerer's toolkit, not like a true audio graph. Good parts: I liked how truly modular everything was, there was almost no coupling. Bad parts: it was easy to get yourself into performance trouble...

Prototyping out some basic platforming! Collision was a bit tricky to figure out, but I'm happy with the progress so far!

@andre_la_devlog I’m writing this game from scratch! Just Zig code and simple JS bindings. Once the game is done I’m planning on pulling some of the code out into a “framework” I can use for the next game! :)

[bootra! @bootra_games]

I'm in the early stages of making a new game, so I decided to experiment with hot reloading! Now I simply have to save the file, and the game will detect the file change and reload automatically :)

In celebration of the start of “boo” season, we bought this commemorative First Flight merchandise, hehe

[bootra! @bootra_games]

@hazeycode So cool to see you keep working on your jam game!

[bootra! @bootra_games]

@andre_la_devlog What do you use now?

[bootra! @bootra_games]

Wow! So many cool updates here: https://t.co/6FGnaGDGhz
I'm going to try out indent guides and cursorline!

Helix has been a great text editor for writing Zig. Recent changes have come through to fix some of the lsp issues, now I have zero complaints. Try out our theme boo_berry!

I urge you not to wait for corporations to deliver the art you want. make it yourselves, and accept in your heart that it will not look as though it cost 300 million dollars but that it will be nonetheless unique, personal, and beautiful in its own way

[Marcus Ramse @JerwuQu]

The final results of the WASM-4 Jam are out, including some interesting insight from Aduros, its creator.

One surprising datapoint: most jammers were Europeans!
