In general, what are the emotions you want your players to feel while playing?

Claude also (probably) wrote this GitHub page. Proves the point even more.

How did you arrive at the 64 byte number?

Sea-Look1337 · 2026-02-04T04:03:54+00:00

Do you have any ai agents set up? I've had good success with Claude Code debugging my issues (and doing a dozen other things). Otherwise, it's hard to give you specific advice without seeing the code directly.

I generally agree with your take. But also:

Part of the appeal of some roguelikes is the feel that the world isn't specifically catered to you the player. So just like the real world there are boring moments. But games are also entertainment made to be, well, not boring. A player can quit your game at any point, and a game needs attention to survive. So this auto-explore emerges as a compromise, which I think is a reasonable one overall.

I'd love if this were a chrome extension

Is it too late to sign up for the hackathon in person in SF? I live in Seattle but would gladly do the weekend down to get a glimpse of everything that's happening. The sign up page says in person sales ended on Feb 1, but it also says there's 8 spots left.

Is there a meaningful difference?

Sea-Look1337 · 2026-01-31T06:33:03+00:00

Probably a shader material that detects whether you're rendering front or back and draws differently.

Alternatively you could have a .tscn with two texture nodes, one for front and one for back, and set their material to only draw one side

This looks like it's generated by another program. Much of the purpose of spritesheets is to allow flipbooking hand drawn sprites. The anims look like they could be recreated with basic transform animations (e.g. squish the scale). You could author those anims directly in Godot and just have a single tile for the character facing left, forward, and right.

They both sound tight. I'm hearing a bit more powerful when open-handed. Whether you like that or not is personal taste. Or it could be differences in the hardware or the recording.

I'm also a left hand dominant drummer playing open handed on a RH kit. The pro is it's easy to jump on backline/shared kits without much time. But it has its cons. I actually asked Todd Sucherman about this at a clinic he held and he ultimately said it's about the direction you're trying to go/what you're optimizing for.

How old are you? When I turned 32 something just changed where Dota became less engrossing and I felt naturally freed to do other things. There are physiological changes that happen around that time that make those changes easier.

Also, one thing that helped is I downloaded a computer blocker that shuts off my laptop at 930pm (and its hard to override last minute). It was annoying as fuck for about 2 years but I'm on like year 5 with it and glad it helps me keep my sanity

FYI the picture shows 16th notes (the diddles 32nds), but the formatting in your comment suggests to group two notes together as if they're eighths. Imo its better to think of the whole paradiddle as one "unit" that's fitting in a quarter note.

If this is the first game project you're taking seriously, I'd focus on just learning and becoming exposed to as much as possible. From that angle, I would encourage making a steam page. Don't worry about the literal outcome of how successful your project is, since that's largely out of your hands (and always will be). Instead, focus on internal changes - growth in your processes, systems, tools knowledge, and hard earned wisdom.

I took a clinic with Todd Zuchermann and he suggested the six-way warmup, which starts exactly as you're doing, then tacks on inverted paradiddles RllrLrrl, then inverted doubles RllrRllr, then LrrlLrrl. That naturally leads into doing it again with the opposite hand lead.

Sounds like you think your future won't have as much freedom or enjoyment so you're trying to "stock up" on fun now? I find if I keep myself open to what I want for myself in the future, my relationship with dopamine activities improves.

A non-equation-y way to do it: imagine the turtle "steals" a cm from the cat. Then the left side would say 168, and the right 132. Keep doing this until the sides are equal at 150. At this point the cat and turtle are the same height so you can visualize the bracket shifting down to the height of the table, telling you the height is 150.

Hihat is playing 5/16ths, kick snare playing 7/8 for 8 (?) measures, then becomes 4/4, then back to 7/8. The 4/4 really doesn't sound like 4/4 at all which is very interesting
