#introduction hi gamemaking.social I'm selfsame and this is my game dev aspect. I've made a lot of art games and have a lot of strange dev gifs I might share from time to time.
I also make tools and have a big interest in procedural generation.
Oh! I'm also a huge fan of Blender and always happy to answer questions.

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
most of my Rust problems are solved by just not doing what I was trying to do.
Taking this to it's logical conclusion of just not sitting down in front of the computer
me (writing a game engine): ok here's where we change directory twice 60 times per second

Today is the day! In five hours we will finally release our first game, "non-binary"!
We all know how much work it takes to even make something small, so... here's some pictures of the work we've done!
Funny fact: yes, there's no screenshot of Unity or anything else. Well, I mean, we all know most of the gamedev work is outside of the development environment, right? ;D

@selfsame i remember there was a Wordtris back in the 90s but I don't know how it worked!
tetris but the tetrominoes are made of letters and you have to spell words to remove blocks
anyway the diorama thing is one of the few really comfortable VR setups, I've seen it done in https://junipersky.itch.io/a-shopping-trip-to-eklan-tor and it's really amazing
VR thing where you control a little character on a diorama in front of you, but you use your full arm motions to move it's legs, sort of like an out of body thing
