$5.11 for two Mac builds on #Unity Cloud Build. Bruh. Shit's getting expensive. What are people using for devops these days? #gamedev

Yesterday I've played around with a couple of different ideas for track generation in Super Space Arcade, but I realized what a big gamble it is to make these architectural changes to a released game. Perhaps better left for a sequel. Still enough other areas to polish. #gamedev…

Lesson learned (again): When getting a pooled object in Unity, set the position and rotation before setting it active. The lifecycle methods and the physics engine might otherwise interfere, even when it looks like you have a clear path in your code from A to B. #unity #gamdev

So I have an object pool with a maximum of objects to keep available. If I request more objects from the pool then are available, I just instantiate them regularly and on return to the pool I destroy them. Is this a good pattern? #gamedev

#Steam really beats my Library and Store assets to mush with it's compression. Have to fight back with Curves, High-Pass filter and Saturation increase. The exported images look like shit, but when mangled by the comp algorithm they look fine again. 🤷‍♂️ #gamedev

Had the #Laravel debug bar enabled on Worgames live site. Say one thing about Tom, say he's a professional.

Considering that #AI is always polite, unoffensive, and doesn't make typos, the true proof of humanity is going to be badly written insults. You fukkers.

Asking #ai to refine a previous result feels like sharpening ice cream.

I got the #switch2 mostly for playing my old unfinished Switch 1 titles at a better resolution and 60fps framerate, especially Zelda #totk and it's doing well in that regard. #gaming đź§µ

While I have successfully managed a #selfhosted GitLab with automatic CI/CD for #Unity game builds, I realized the whole signing/notarization process is only possible on a Mac, so the dream of the one CI/CD to rule them all is suddenly out of reach again.

Worst thing about part-time gamedev: forgetting what you've done last time and then having to figure out your own shit. #gamedev
