Gdscript let's you do static typing, so "var a : int" ensures that a is an integer. This can help prevent bugs and bad code, and even speeds up the interpreter since it can make some assumptions.

So until now, you couldn't do that with dictionaries, they always allowed any type as a key or value. This adds that functionality so dictionaries can be used with stricter rules, preventing bugs and making them faster.

let me know if this isn't allowed, but I'm making a game, and also the music in it, and figured I'd share here. lmk if it's good.

It depends on how you install stuff. Games on Steam or downloaded from online from places like itch.io can be put on any drive without issue.

In terms of software though, native packages (deb, rpm) are gonna want to put files in various system folders, so it's pretty much impossible to get those off your os drive.

Other packaging solutions can help with this though. Appimages can be put anywhere, nix let's you install to another drive, same with flatpak.

And if you're savvy, you could use docker to install system packages on other drives, although I wouldn't recommend it.

Wow it evolved from an Empoisoned game to a Swumbles Big Jumble game.

Wow this is a certified Spec Ops The Line moment

I feel like this isn't exclusive to indie games.
Empoisoned games: Forespoken, Bloodborne, Metal Gear Rising Revengance

Swumbles Big Jumble games: Assassin's Creed (plus subtitle), John Madden Football (and other similarly titled sports games), any legend of zelda game.

Women are you allowed to resubmit games if they've been in development kit and you both seem to be on it was the way to save data by teleporting electrons into an image

Yeah I agree with you there. If you're gonna just give two or three body type options and no other customization, there should be an androgenous option or at least they should all be generally androgenous. I think the issue with runescape probably stems from how the game was before.

[–] julianh@lemm.ee 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I agree with what others said that more customization is generally good, but not all games really need that level of customization. For something like animal crossing, I think the body type thing is fine, since the designs are more neutral unlike what you're describing. I think what could help is a third option that's a more neutral body type. Or maybe if it's not relevant, just don't have a body type option.

I also don't know much about runescape, but I assume this was an update that just changed the names from genders to body types, so adding other options might have increased the scope of the update. I think at least uncoupling that from gender is at least an improvement over before. Plus, I kinda disagree that people would only pick the corresponding pronouns. Plenty of people have a gender expression that doesn't necessarily match their gender identity.

 

I've used my switch pro a lot for games on my pc, but after updating to 22 it no longer works, and I have no clue why. It connects and shows the player count lights, but no blue light and no controller detected by any software. lsusb shows the device and udemadm monitor shows a bunch of changes.

Sometimes I can get it to connect by connecting with bluetooth, then quickly plugging it in, which makes me think that it's an issue with udev rules? It won't connect with bluetooth alone though.

Is anyone else experiencing this or have an idea on how to solve it?

EDIT: FIXED! The issue was that I had joycond installed at one point, and the upgrade removed it (since its not needed since the kernel has support now). I just went in /lib/udev/rules.d and deleted any files with joycond in the name (there were 2).

 

don't ask why this is 139.2gb

 

(tldr, open source software has come a long way, and it's more than possible to create a full game without leaving Linux.)

So I've been a full Linux user for a couple years now, and a hobbyist game dev for way longer. I've always tried to make the most out of free tools, so I've used a lot of FOSS tools for game development before.

Going with that philosophy, Year Unknown's development has cost $0 (not counting store fees or my time), and the development is done with almost entirely FOSS software like Godot, Blender, GIMP, and Audacity. The only exception is Reaper, which is my DAW of choice (but to be fair, it's a really good DAW).

The game itself is a narrative-driven exploration game set in the very far future, where humanity has found a way to make the universe last forever. The game's story covers a lot of existential issues that come from the premise, revealed through two characters you can talk to through terminals.

I know there's other developers who have done the same, but I thought I'd share my experience, and I can answer questions about the workflow if you're curious, or trying to do something similar. Also, if the game seems interesting to you, a wishlist would be very appreciated!

 

An interesting project I quickly threw together after finding out that Godot can call javascript's "eval" function. You can really do anything with this engine.

It really seems like satire, but based off the guy's profile and normal posts I don't think it is.

 

Haven't got my $1,000 yet.

 

Fortunately all the comments are dunking on this guy.
