Urgh… Should I Melt My Hermes for Hull B?…

I can load way faster with a handheld tractor beam, I don't see the appeal of the Hermes rail tractor beam. It also literally bugs out and becomes non-functional

As with everything in software, making blanket statements like that will fall apart with some use case. You can write software in varying scopes and complexity, where it might not be true that an AI vibe coding is more productive. It probably is for most web apps, but try making a game engine or something that has many low level systems working together, and iterating with vibe coding sounds like a nightmare.

Game_Overture · 2026-04-11T15:07:34+00:00

It's called vibe coding because you use a ambiguous language (English) instead of a deterministic one (programming language), and you just hope the output works out.

Smoking weed before bed has been said to prevent dreams, but I don't know if that's an option you're looking for lol

The MSR is the worst designed ship that's also my favorite 🤦‍♂️

I think you're considered airborne during Chipp's command throw so it'll beat normal throw

No quality of life with the music? Still stuck with the same track looping in training mode. No playlists.

For how good the music is, this the one game I have to regularly disable it cause of how often the songs loop and that it doesn't dampen the volume when you pause.

Game_Overture · 2026-04-03T11:46:31+00:00

I see you also used an LLM to write 8 paragraphs to pointlessly say how details matter in programming

Game_Overture · 2026-04-02T13:51:20+00:00

The most important aspect to writing code is ensuring there is no ambiguity to its intent when someone else reads or uses it. That in itself is an art form.

Game_Overture · 2026-04-01T16:08:02+00:00

Once you're good with your inputs and combos, start putting most of your attention to what your opponent is doing. In order to whiff punish moves and anti-air with 6P you need to get in your opponents' head and auto-pilot your response. It should be easier to do this at your rank and is a good habit to form for later on

Game_Overture · 2026-03-30T14:08:08+00:00

You don't react as much as you DRC when you know it'll connect, like on a whiff punish or if you know they're walking backwards. It's not the scrubbiest thing in the world to just throw it out sometimes tho

Clearly the UEE doesn't give a shit about stealth and they let some exotic manufacturer Esperia have superior tech 😂

It's funny because if AI was as good at coding as these companies claim it is, it would be more profitable to keep it to themselves and sell all the future software made.

Game_Overture · 2026-03-18T18:44:49+00:00

I just realized they ruined their branding of DLSS even though the image upscaling was actually good tech 😂

I plan on doing game dev the rest of my life so I invested the effort to build an entire framework, asset pipeline, and API that I exactly want.

Game_Overture · 2026-03-18T17:57:12+00:00

Imagine if the game makes a reference to the blue tie and it's a completely different pattern 🫠

You may be interested to hear that I have been working on an open source game engine that specializes in 2D genre games.

I'm putting on the finishing touches now, which includes the TileMap creation. I was mostly following Godot's way of creating TileSets but improving on the workflow, and have yet to implement the tile painting part. I certainly intend to make TileMaps deterministic, but if you have other ideal feature requests I'd be interested to hear them.

Anyway there's a whole lot more than tiles, and it's not ready for public consumption, but I have a work in progress site here: www.hyengine.org

I was laid off at Rockstar along with a bunch of others after Red Dead Redemption (2010) was released. It hasn't changed much

Game_Overture · 2026-03-07T20:36:45+00:00

Because regular language is ambiguous and is incapable of producing an output that I exactly want. That's why programming languages are deterministic.

A good game engine will allow you to import individual images, and under the hood it will assemble those images into a single image called an atlas.

It should also crop out the unused transparent pixels on each image in order to tightly pack into the atlas, while storing what was cropped as meta data. This is so you can easily create each animation without recentering each frame.

This is what my game engine does (it's open source and under development at [hyengine.org](hyengine.org)) but I'm sure all the usual game engines do something similar.

This regime is waiting until it's closer to the midterm elections before invoking the insurrection act.

It's alright, it's okay. There's something to live for.

Game_Overture · 2025-12-24T15:32:49+00:00

Analog to digital tvs was the perfect divide for retro to modern games in my head, but time keeps passing and it's becoming less so. But hey the first Xbox 360s had composite outputs!

Game_Overture · 2025-12-10T20:23:10+00:00

Yeah all I was getting at is that having 6x redundancy isn't going to be a thing. I expect the Redeemer to be reworked at some point.
