@npub1ta7…uwlj I think I make it pretty obvious to people in the know without triggering keywords and drawing in drama that I don't want ;)
And yeah, I don't see it as a step in any direction. It's pretty much the same points as have been established already.

And, well, there is this aftertaste of trying to be as apolitical as possible, focusing only on the angle of protecting maintainers and nothing else. To be clear, that's a valid angle, but far from the only angle to view AI-assisted contributions from.
So overall: eh.

On the subject of The Discourse, it does seem like a very minor change to wording around the same principles as before. I don't think that any of the already merged PRs would've been rejected under these changes either, which makes the whole thing moot.
Would love to see that introspection though.

Yeah, I have eventually figured it out. I just wasn't expecting the toggle there and I haven't checked that page for a while now. So I missed that it was added around the hardware announcement.

Wait, Android???

Here's the thing: I could create a bespoke solution for this problem. But bespoke solutions introduce a lot of technical burden. Someone has to maintain it, and it will not necessarily be me.
Custom tools are not that nice for a small team that has to do a lot. Hence why I was wondering if there was a simple VCS-lite tool that we could use instead.

To give you full context, this is for educational materials in gamedev. A course that we want to be resettable on the user end, so they can try again and again. Ideally, we'd want every chapter to be individually resettable, but even a one big controlled reset would be good for now.
Hence we have a copy of all files to override files a student might've (or rather should've) changed.

There isn’t even a need for deltas and multiple revisions. Just noticing that files have been modified, removed, or added and rolling back on demand to a predefined state.
Currently files are just overridden from a reserved copy, and under the hood even a VCS would do pretty much the same, it just feels rather inelegant.

📅 Today is day 220 of me working on this project (according to commit history, anyway). These balls have been with me the entire journey, they started it!
🔴🟢🟣
Today is also day 4 of me implementing snapping for gamepad/keyboard. I think it's done now!
With pieces specifically the very high frequency of potential points makes me skeptical about the game being playable with a controller. But in practice, it's no so bad! Reasonable scoring and deadzones help.

That's okay, you don't have a full picture and I'm probably not explaining it well.
There are different types of pieces, balls are but one of them. Each piece type can have a variation in one of well-defined styles: plain, striped, glass. Each style has one spritesheet associated with it, which covers every rotated state, up to 12.
Inside of the game, each available style for each piece corresponds to a unique kind of foil pack. E.g. you have a pack of striped balls.

Yes, I was going for that effect where you can see one image from the left and another from the right (but somehow, in a sphere it can go up to 6 states).
But it's hard to reference.
I'm trying to solve a game design problem by cramming them together into one type like that, but perhaps that's not a solution that makes sense.

That's the idea here: you roll it and the image changes. Imagine like it's made out of something that makes different images appear depending on the angle.

2025-07-07 17:44:05 CEST

Doing something unorthodox to add multiple decal variations for balls without creating a bunch of new pieces. 6 unique decals with 6 intermediate frames, blending them.
Does this work? And if it does, which variation is better, with gaps or without?

I suck at parrying in Dark Souls. I was quickly turned down by Sifu when I learnt how tight the timings are. And I have to say, Clair Obscur, to me, is a masterclass in attack animation readability.
There were maybe 1 or 2 enemies who felt unfair. The rest — I'm actually having fun learning them!
By no means is the game easy though. You do need to learn each enemy type, and there are plenty of them! But it's neat, systemic. You can master it, can be a fair judge of your abilities.

That’s quite a commitment on their part! Guess you can take it as a compliment :) Did they motivate the link thing in any way? Or, I guess, in any new way?

📅🔥 Start of a new week is a good time for a hot discussion.
Here's a story of how I brought my FOSS app to Steam, and the unfortunate conclusion based on that experience.

Wouldn't that be nice, to drag'n'drop items into an exported array?

I really really want videogames to once again be about fruits of human imagination being played and experienced by humans, with human interactions and resulting human-authored imagery being the medium for communication between the author and the player.
Not. All. This.

It's beautiful, MIT, and totally free:
