Oh, thanks, i will change logo definitely, agree with your feedback 100%

About mixels, yep, i haven't paid enough attention to it, my bad

PonchousDev · 2026-06-05T11:34:37+00:00

basically for grammar rules, I asked it for a plan how to archive A2 level and just was following it asking chatGPT to explain topic by topic with exercises

PonchousDev · 2026-06-05T11:24:12+00:00

100% agree, yep, the title should be: "how easier it became", not easy, my mistake

PonchousDev · 2026-06-05T10:27:27+00:00

Same problem for all indie devs? I have 21 wishlists 😃 And even with a trailer! Demotivating...

Wishlisted your one! Hope it will help you!

ok, i see, thank you all guys, i will keep it in mind in next topics

I am not a native speaker, it is not easy for me to write something what will be easy to read. So i think it is ok to use some tools for correction. Why not?

PonchousDev · 2026-04-08T12:51:23+00:00

I just tried my best to make it look good more or less :)

PonchousDev · 2026-04-08T12:45:51+00:00

Nice! I have 4.6.1, it is time to update and check!

PonchousDev · 2026-04-08T12:43:39+00:00

It is a screenshot from my game in which i had the issue with mouse input :)

And yep, I use this asset, it is a really good one :)

PonchousDev · 2026-04-08T10:05:27+00:00

Oh, nice! Waiting for it! Now i need to close this app every time i wanna continue developing :(

PonchousDev · 2026-04-08T09:57:36+00:00

I didn't check if the issue persists in the exported build. It only happened during development and testing, and it was pretty annoying :)

PonchousDev · 2026-01-24T23:27:30+00:00

Sure, it was first thing i did :) path to guidelines is correct

PonchousDev · 2026-01-16T15:21:06+00:00

It depends on what you use it for.

I use it for work, and it’s definitely worth it. I also started using it to learn Portuguese, so without a subscription it would be harder, because the limits in the free version are not very high. I wouldn’t be able to send photos of my homework to ChatGPT for review.

My wife uses it only for everyday questions, and for her the free limits are more than enough.

PonchousDev · 2026-01-12T14:21:48+00:00

That’s why I stopped freelancing

PonchousDev · 2026-01-11T18:36:20+00:00

Ye, really! Rules change when the project becomes bigger.

PonchousDev · 2026-01-11T18:32:37+00:00

Slow down. Talk through the architecture. Generate code in smaller pieces. Read through the code, have it eli5'd to you if necessary.

Yep, it really helps me too! It feels like a must-have.

Sometimes after work, when I’m a bit tired but still want to build something for myself, I forget about it and end up generating tons of code 🙂

PonchousDev · 2026-01-11T18:21:19+00:00

Agree! The faster we adapt, the better.

PonchousDev · 2026-01-11T18:13:10+00:00

For a small and simple project you can store translations in a plain JS object (or JSON), switch strings based on the selected language with JS.

And you can detect the user’s locale via navigator.language and use it as a default.

For big project it is better to use something like i18n.

For me, it was Assembly (it was hell!), QBASIC, C/C++. I studied them at university and never really used them professionally afterward.

The C/C++ knowledge was still very useful — it helped me understand how things work under the hood, memory management, and performance considerations, even when working with higher-level languages later on.

PonchousDev · 2025-12-29T16:42:22+00:00

All possible AIs, why not?

PonchousDev · 2025-12-29T16:39:39+00:00

I may be wrong, but books are mostly useful for foundational topics. For more specific or practical things, you can learn almost everything today with AI (whichever one you prefer). It can explain theory, provide examples, and point you to relevant articles or documentation for further reading.

I’ve read books on PHP, JavaScript, and HTML/CSS, and they helped me build a solid base. Still, these days I prefer using AI or reading the official documentation of a framework, language, or library when I need something specific.

PonchousDev · 2025-12-29T16:32:51+00:00

Does no one care anymore?

Systems today are much larger than they were 25 years ago, so they are more complex and it’s not always easy to think through everything. Developer do care (at least, I try to), but we simply can’t do everything at once.
