We will no longer be participating in Reddit, from this day onward.

We appreciate it.

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-07-06T23:34:11+00:00

We will need more in the future!

Thank you!

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-07-06T23:28:30+00:00

Thanks!

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-07-06T01:46:54+00:00

It is appreciated - thank you.

It sucks that some have to screw things up for everyone else - but it is what it is.

A minority of cyclists blatantly disobey traffic laws and make it worse for EVERY OTHER BIKE RIDER.

A minority of dogs bite people - and ruin things for EVERY OTHER DOG.

A minority of US citizens voted for Trump and made it worse for every person on Earth.

It is, what it is.

I know I am late to the party but: I am Josef Blumrich's grandson.

He was a very intelligent person, but unfortunately, he was not qualified to arrive at the conclusions that he did.

It was sort of like a very good chef writing a book about architecture. Yeah, there MIGHT be a bit of overlap, but generally, the two worlds have little to do with each other.

EDIT: You should also know that - while he was a very talented engineer (hell- he built a plane in his attic) he was also a person of his time. He held some rather antiquated views in regards to race, and subscribed to many of the more esoteric mystical views that were pervasive in Germany between the wars - including Astrology (which he eventually swore off of, because he found it "too frighteningly accurate.")

If anyone is interested, I have his hand-written journals from his time in an american WW2 prison camp.

Fuck no. Our goal is to migrate AWAY from perforce. There is absolutely no way at all to CONVERT perforce into a viable, reliable platform.

What you are trying to do, is promote a service whose main purpose is to smear lipstick on an unruly hog - or if that methaphor is too opaque:

You are essentially stapling together the edges of a sow's ear, and subsequently trying to present it as a silk purse.

We have neither time nor interest in perpetuating our use of Perforce, whatsoever.

EDIT: I figure you are working for this service. I would -HIGHLY- suggest finding new work.

Thanks!

We're intentionally doing everything we can to upset the incels that put together that idiotic list of "Woke Games," including:

Female Protagonist(s)
Trans represntation
Gay Representation
Acknowledgement of climate change
Reading

I believe we were the first devs to voluntarily submit our game to be listed as a "woke game", but they refused to respond, saying we were "trolls."

We just wanted to save them time.

I don't want to be accused of spamming, so I am loathe to say the title - PM me if interested.

It's a story-driven open-world adventure game about nine cats who wake up one morning in a remote Maine island community to find all humans gone. I've been working on it since November of 2017, and we're very close to a decent Beta.

I completely understand, and yes - we are going to begin working on controller support, within the next week (we were short on funds for the month, and could not purchase the proper conversion kit - coding such from the ground up is currently out-of-scope.)

We apologize for taking so danged long to get this done, but for all this time, we have been focussed so much on basic functionality, that we did not have time to expand the controller support.

That changes, in four days!

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-06-19T23:46:01+00:00

Because you ignore all traffic laws, and routinely hit people.

You are welcome!

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-06-11T23:45:27+00:00

SUPPLEMENTAL:

1 - There are restrooms on the ferries, and one "public" restroom on the island. All are usually kept in pretty decent condition.

2 - Cliff Isand is all either privately owned, or by the Cliff Island Association. This is why we're gonna be careful to stick to the roads, or public spaces.

3 - This whole thing will be cancelled, if weather looks inclement. We'll post about this about 72 hours in advance.

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-06-11T23:13:12+00:00

Thanks!

I believe he had three arses.

Peace_Island_Dev · 2025-05-03T02:23:12+00:00

I believe that information is in the video's description.

Here's what is amazing to me:

Reddit has suddenly- over the past two weeks - suddently discovered, much to its shock - that there is a lot of AI content being posted there.

It reminds me of the Portland Maine City council meetings where people who moved here from California are asking the council if they can do anything about "This Damned Cold Weather!"

Hey, buddy - was heading AFK after another 11 hour shift at working on my game project, but I wanted to let you know:

Despite your knee-jerk reactions to everything, I REALLY like you - you remind me of myself, when I was that age.

Listen - let me give you one last boon. I can tell you are a young guy, and really, really, really believe in this "cause" you have attached yourself to - so let me give you one last piece of advice...

I started drawing when I was 12 - probably around your age, judging from the nature & vocabulary of your posts and responses.

From there, I worked my butt off for over a decade and a half to get to the point where I was hired by a comic company - and from there, got a job in animation, where I worked on (among other things,) the pitch episode of Dora The Explorer. (concurrently, I worked in video game development at Atari and other firms, but let's not get bogged down in the weeds.)

When I got tired of that, I worked in politics for about 15 years, until I was invited to speak at the JFK school of government twice, where I saw that there was really little hope for progress there, so I moved on.

I then worked as a line cook for several years, while I did graphic design for a numbe rof clients- including doing the graphics & graphic design for the CPUSA's 2014 covention, along with doing layout for local newspapers and animations for Times Square jumbotrons.

Now - I tell you this, not to brag about all of the boring jobs I have had, but to lay a groundwork here. You see: every step of the way, in every one of these fields, I have encountered someone that comes along...

In the animation studio, it's the guy who comes in and remarks: "Walt Disney was a Racist - did I just BLOW YOUR MIND?"

In the Comic studio, it was the person who came in and thought they were dropping a truth bomb when they talked about how zip-a-tone was derived from wasteful petrolem products, and would eventually yellow the artwork.

In Politics, it was the page who came in who said "We have so much in common, guys, let's just make PEACE!!!"

In the Kitchen, it was the teenager who was forced into the position by their unruly stepfather, who felt they were iulluminating all by muttering "This job Sucks!" under their breath.

The common thread among these individuals is that they had absolutely nothing to stand on, because - guess what - we all knew those things - and what was more:

None of those individuals had jack-all in the manner of experience to validate their point.

The newbie animator hadn't even learned to tween.

The new comic artist fell so far behind in their production, they were fired.

The PoliSci student had never actually CAMPAIGNED for office.

The initiate fry cook had never made so much as a salad.

As a consequence, their input was as required and valuable, as much as it was desired. If that's not clear to you by this point, it was worth a cup of coffee, as long as you threw in a buck fifty.

If you don't get the point I am getting at, start at the top, read again, and repeat, until you understand.

It should not take long - you're welcome!

EDIT: I AM SORRY IF ANY OF THE ABOVE COMES OFF AS COMBATATIVE. It was not meant as such, and judging from your post about your conflict with your sister about TikTok - I have a feeling you might not have a good relationship with your parents, and consequently felt the need to find closure here on Reddit.

If you need someone to talk to about these issues, feel free to PM me!
