@jplebreton Literally the face I make whenever I feel like I'm going to have to print something.
Though, ironically, whenever I print something I'm reminded how much I like CUPS, so end up with a surprised+impressed face.
Hi @thanevim and welcome.
We have a bit of a guide at https://www.gamemaking.tools/wiki/index.php/Guide:gamemaking.social, and some links to some other ones at the bottom, but otherwise feel free to @ me with any questions you have.

made a nice font for pico-8. each character is 5x7 pixels but there's no spacing between letters or lines when printing strings so most are actually 4x6

I'm making a game for the ZX Spectrum Next using C. This is my ongoing devlog on the process.
In this episode I waffle on about the general aim of what I'm trying to do and some of the code I have written so far.
what's with tech people and pseudo-millitary jargon like *ops and comms?
@zens maybe i'll make a version that looks more undercooked...

apparently my elderly neighbor has been maintaining a personal website about the history of UK photography and it is an incredible piece of work.
apparently he still uses some piece of adobe software from the 90s. there is so much care and effort here, and its such a pristine image of the early web being still updated 😭

okay #brutaldon is back and happy at https://brutaldon.org/ for all your brutalist fediverse needs.
it's also now living in the cloud again, so the final public facing service in the lab has been relocated.

In a shock move that nobody could have predicted, the #BossBattleJam is being extended by a week.
Sources say that this turn of events is unprecedented, with the exception of *every other DragonRuby #GameJam*.
Submissions will close at end of day on Sunday May 29. That means you now have two whole weeks to finish your game or, if you're late to the party, you have two whole weeks to start and finish your game.
