Rock and stone, my friend ⛏
I live an increasingly confusing double life as TeaHands the game dev, and TheGiddyStitcher, multicrafter extraordinaire!
Currently working on my first ever commercial indie game, a minimalist city builder.

With our increased accuracy and feather-light touch we will take over the world!
Or, judging by this thread so far, maybe we already did…
I don’t even have big hands, just regular lady-hand sized. I still don’t really get the palm thing, just tried it and it feels so weird! Maybe depends on the shape of the mouse too, since some can be quite a lot taller than others.
TIL I’m a fingertip gripper
Man I had so many picnics down by that river when I was supposed to be at college. Good times!
Pretty sure they were on about making a LotR MMO at some point? No idea what else they were up to though.
Highly recommend bookmarking https://ohshitgit.com, it’ll steer you right 👍
Whining and whinging are definitely not the same thing, but I’m struggling to articulate why. Just something British (and I guess Australian, judging by this thread) folks grow up with and intuitively understand.
For future reference if you tag the Lemmy community in a reply instead of the top-level toot it won’t do this 😄
Knitting and Discworld, you love to see it.
I’m middle aged and I’m ok with that!
And from lemmy.world 👋
Same! I had to pick up C# instead and not particularly happy about it. But PHP my sweet, I’ll always love you for personal projects.
I said what I said!
Having worked with all kinds of languages, I stand by my belief that PHP is the most fun.
Yeah maybe it lets you do some things it probably shouldn’t. Yeah maybe the naming conventions are wild. But it also encourages creativity and experimentation in a way that stricter languages just don’t.
Yes I am willing to die on this hill.
Not to be harsh, but you’ve asked this question a few times in different ways over the last few weeks. My suggestion and advice is, download Godot and find a tutorial and give it a try. You can’t find out whether you’ll enjoy something by reading about it, only by doing it.
You’re not wrong about this still needing a lot of work. But just fyi in the meantime sorting by “new comments” turns up a pretty good mix for me.
As a hobbyist game dev, can confirm I am basically just splashing around cluelessly making a mess.
If you understand the code and are able to adapt it to for your needs it’s no different to copy pasting from other sources, imo. It’s just a time saver.
If you get to the point where you’re blindly trusting it with no ability to understand what it’s doing, then you have a problem. But that applied to Stack Overflow too.
I can only speak for how it shows up on Mastodon, but over there any hashtags we try and add here just show up as plain text and don’t show in the actual tag feed, so it does nothing for discoverability.
