After 1.5 years, my game is finally OUT NOW!! 🥹
I've had so much fun and poured my heart into making this game. It’s a love letter to my favorite games growing up and I hope it sparks some nostalgia for you too! 💙
Retweets and likes helps alot!

@0xThoughtVector@tekbog I’m not sure that AI will revolutionize the economy like people expect. It certainly will change things, but at whose benefit and expense it’s not clear at this point.
American economy is interesting. You can get rich fast but is savage and you can end in streets as well.
@0xThoughtVector@tekbog I know how hard it can be to start a business in Europe. Specially in Germany. But here in Latin America you can start one with Pennies and in matter of minutes. And yet… the problem here is that there’s no disposable income. So even if you start one, you won’t have customers.
@0xThoughtVector@tekbog The thing I know is that governments are terrible at generating wealth. I’m failing to see how a more efficient government website will help here. There are no taxes to collect if you don’t have any job at all.
@0xThoughtVector@tekbog How does it makes human lives better though? I have yet to see any advancement in medicine which should be at 10x speed already as everyone is advertising. But ignoring that, how does making it easier for companies to sell me an Ad by reducing production cost, improve my life?
Let’s assume for a second what current LLM produce isn’t garbage. Let’s say that accuracy somehow reached a production grade level (which currently is not the case)
What’s the economic benefit of it? Can someone explain me how replacing workers is good for general population
@transmutrix Did you consider others before jumping into c++? I was scared at the beginning for choosing Odin instead of c++ but up to this point I haven't found any reason to not use it for big projects. Although I'm still at early stages, and wondering if I'm still in honeymoon phase 🥲
When I started learning Odin, it started a snowball effect. I learned SDL, OpenGL, GLSL, memory management, lifetimes, arenas, etc. I've learned more about programming in months of odin than years of JS.
Anyways, this is from my game and engine, written in odin of course.
@007kowalski Sounds scary but you develop some intuition after repeating tasks. Sort of muscle memory as well. I’ve made a from scratch hello triangle like 50 times already!
@007kowalski In my case, revisit linear algebra, implemented a software(CPU) 3D renderer to understand what vertex, edges are and how to render them and how projection works. And after that, openGL!
@transmutrix This is as far as I got writing a 3D software renderer. This one with Odin and just using a pixel/color buffer with SDL. But I guess performance and resolution can be nice limitations to work with! 😄 I’m tempted to try that on future games
