This is by far one of the coolest maps of any game I've ever played
I know this place like it's my home

One thing that always bothered me about many 2D games made in the last 25 years is screen composition. The player character's sprite feeling so tiny on a screen that's just full of negative space gives such a detached and impersonal feeling. I don't connect with games like this.

I was demoralized about game dev saturation before AI even showed up. My lifelong dream that I have been passionately following since 1988 is now just a trend that literally everyone is doing, which turns the industry into an oversaturated mess and it's only going to get worse.

The game is coming together. Almost feature complete. Added some new enemies like the Skeleton Wizard that swaps position with the player if it brings him closer to a monster.

We need people to test dev roms!
Requirements are that:
- you can run an NES emulator
- you've played (and loved!) the NES Dragon Warrior games
- you can spend some time with the test builds and report back on your experience
Send DM!

I just released a paper for the Wg14, that will hopefully help people understand the Effective type system in C.

I am going to say something very controversial:
Objective-C is better than Swift.
And Swift could have been better than Objective-C, and all it had to do is have a slightly better syntax with slightly better semantics than Objective-C and nothing more, but now it's a huge mess.
Harry Lundström retweeted
I see that Swift has now fallen into the same trap that modern C++ fell into long ago: "advanced" features that produce extremely clever convoluted magic code that is a cool mental puzzle to write the first time and an utterly unmaintainable inscrutable mess in reality.

The first time I used Unity I asked a friend: "so where do I put the code hierarchy of the game?"
I was expecting some kind of game.cs file where you explicitly structure the code.
This is how I used to expect games to be made and how I still think they should be made.
Harry Lundström retweeted
I can't believe I finally get to say this. SDL3 is officially ABI locked!
We will _add_ new things but not _change_ or _remove_ what's there, starting right now. Which means it's safe to start migrating your games to it, starting today!
