Here's the thing
I love turn based tactics games - they're my favorite kind of games to play and there aren't enough of them so I want to make more
But
The best things in life are ricochets, breaking glass, rag dolls, and destructible scenery
It's really hard to stay on target

I can never remember the definitions of "yak shaving" or "bikeshedding"
I know they're generally negative, but I can't remember specifically what they mean
I've looked up the definitions a lot of times over the years, but the information just doesn't stick

There are two types of games:
1. Any progress since the last save will be lost.
2. Your progress has been saved.

@npub17vj…g088 well everything's different
I lost any faith I had in humanity when it became clear that a large proportion of people refuse to be even slightly inconvenienced even if it means saving someone else's life
And for four years I've been avoiding being anywhere indoors with other people, and wearing a mask every time I leave the house
So I think I'm still the same person, but the world's a different place

@npub1swx…klf7 @npub1f2s…9pgz my problem with the bg on the left is that it's more busy (i.e. the river) which distracts from the cards in the foreground

@npub1aw2…8vv5 out of curiosity, what's the low level, high performance way to draw a ton of sprites?
Usually the answers to these things are "get the hardware to do it" but if the hardware is expecting textured triangles in 3d space, is that really the best way to do things?

@npub1r53…uu60 well every time they do something stupid they lose more people, so it may be a slow decline but it's a decline

@npub16y5…ym3t well that's discouraging, I guess I've been approaching this all wrong

@npub16y5…ym3t yeah it's not rad it's bogus :)
The way I understood it was food allergies -> inflammation -> acid reflux -> scarring which causes the stricture which makes it hard to swallow.
Although I've cut out the foods they said I'm allergic to and they've put me on a bunch of meds but it seems to be getting worse not better...
