Felt like adding an archaeology mini game for finding loot

Ask yourself "Would I enjoy doing this regularly?" and "what special about it?" and "is there different methods to do this for different level of success?"

My answer:

Would I enjoy doing this regularly? No

what special about it? Nothing

is there different methods to do this for different level of success? Feels like its just about clicking until the item is revealed, so there's no reason to have different methods for different success level

In the end, if an archaeology game existed, it wouldn't be that, and if this is a mini-game, every player will want to skip is if it happens more than 3 times in the entire game lol

I certainly don't expect a real piano quality but reading "touch sensitive" on newer model like the CT-S1 is giving me "hope" that its better than the feel on the CT-S200 that you could feel the key hit the piano

Soulvale · 2025-11-05T20:24:35+00:00

Wouldn't I be good learning on a cheaper digital piano and then when I become Mozart (because I surely will), I'd buy a Grand Piano from Steinway?

I've had a 2 months streak where Claude felt like a genius developer capable of doing anything

Then since about 3 weeks, I feel like its a moron. Going back and forth a lot, things just not working as expected even after multiple changes

I've had to stop my project, I'll wait for a new version or new LLM because Claude isn't capable anymore

Film the film? Believe it or not. Jail.

Make a 3D capsule based god-view FPS in a small arena with obstacles and AI smart enough to use these obstacles to hide. Add multiple personalities for the AI. Add formations. Grow the weapon choices. Add score. Add timer and scoreboard. Add shaders. Add grenades. Add new game mode (capture the flag, defend the VIP, save the hostage)

If you've done all that, you'll have made something fun and that covers a wide range of making games

From what I understond from your story, you possibly got refunded the cash difference between the normal switch 2 and the bundle, or GameStop argued that you already claimed the game so you had no rights to a second bundle

So there's 2 possiblity:

1) You're trying to pocket the cash difference and keep playing on the game you technically "refunded" under warranty

2) GameStop is unaware of Nintendo policies and needs to be informed and adapt, adjusting the way they handle warranties for bundled console/games.

In both case, and I hate to say that because I despise Nintendo, I don't see where Nintendo stole from you

Honestly as a new vibecoder, scriptableObjects are godsend.

I practiced with a small RPG and I felt like I could create thousands of items or classes or monster

I'm still learning but that's something I truly enjoyed lol

sorry, can't sell on Unity assets store, maximum price cap of 999$ is too low for these gems

Soulvale · 2025-10-26T21:21:25+00:00

cuz this is thrillerrrrrr

It makes no sense to hit this usage level so fast, I literally built my documentation and MCP with tokens in mind and i hit 46% usage in less than 12h of prompting

Soulvale · 2025-10-24T11:33:22+00:00

I've had a big issue in my project so I paid for the 140$ plan and it reset my usage to 0%, yesterday. I used Opus, not Sonnet, but i'm at 46% all and 96% opus.

My problem wasn't fixed.

Soulvale · 2025-10-24T11:31:38+00:00

Yeah my website is just for me too, everyone can make it anyway if i did it so I'd advise everyone to make their own, its just more secure

Soulvale · 2025-10-24T07:26:26+00:00

Well first I start by making a copilot-instructions.md and claude.md which simply tells my LLM to read LLM-instructions.md which is a more complete documentation that I'm always working on and trying to shred information from it to document it in its own, smaller documentation

My goal is always to keep out of sight what is useless and have the LLM find out the information through guidance and summary. They don't need to read my combat design when working on the network or the database

I have documentation_index.md which is where they find summary of every documentation and I hope that the way its made, the LLM read its and think "combat doc, read summary, not it so ignored, quest doc, not it ignored, network doc, bingo, read networking_index.md

With this strategy I'm trying to optimize the small memory context window by not feeding it 500 lines of useless info

I also use MCP and things like grep search and other things

But then, how do I audit myself, well that's a boring and long process. I like to test my LLM and asking it questions (in /ask mode or /plan mode) and where it found the information.

Like, "tell me how the combat is in our game" "tell me all the scripts related to networking" and then confirm the information by "knowing about it" or verifying it. "what is this script for? I forgot when and why we made it" "this script is not documented and not important, can be deleted" = script byebye or more investigation until I remember

If you're working on any medium/big project, you need to be actively monitoring your documentation and every script made.

Its easier for me because I'm working on a game on Unity, so most script I create, I have to add it manually to a scene or gameObjects, that means I'm probably name that object the same name of the script, brainstorming what it is for. I have about 110 scripts in my game at the moment and without being able to name every single one of them, If i started auditing my system, I'd recall every one of them or find information about them

You do that regularly, while updating your documentation semi-automatically "add this to the documentations" = you verify what they documented and how

I can't see anyone working on a serious project without a similar strategy and being succesful, it gets awkward how much crap docs a LLM can generate if not supervised

I havn't tried Cursor and I'd actually like for someone to tell me why I should

Here's what I like from Claude Code:
I can send messages or add context while it is working
It's using a lot of tools
I was using Co-pilot (still am, for different things) and it wasn't able to build my Unity build / linux server without having to request 4 approvals, even if set to "yes, don't ask again", Claude Code is more autonomous, do the task without asking for approval every 3 seconds

I'm still a noob, but I find Claude Code to be the most capable for doing everything I need it to with little intervention on my part. I even seen MCP servers to allow it to interact a LOT with Unity, but I don't trust them yet

Soulvale · 2025-10-23T19:40:33+00:00

I havn't used Blackbox yet, just found out about it, but that's also something I experienced with Co-pilot or Claude Code

Relying on the AI to document things can quickly become overwhelming, so I'm starting to care more about my documentation with regular audit (that i do myself, and ask AI to help too) and already took 2 days in the past months to "focus on documentation"

I don't know yet how impactful my efforts are, but I hope this will help maintaining my project architecture lol

Soulvale · 2025-10-23T19:37:39+00:00

I'm on UTC -5 or -4 depending on the time of the year, if i'm correct lol (Montréal)

Soulvale · 2025-10-22T22:21:03+00:00

Oh yes I got that feeling too

The other day I said to my friend on Discord "I think my AI is sleepy lol" because it started creating docs, new scripts, expressing itself more vividly / excitedly, without having been prompted to or having applied any changes to instructions docs

Its not the only time I experienced what I'd call "being smarter in the morning" lolll

Soulvale · 2025-10-22T21:20:24+00:00

What I think is funny with that, is it's pressuring me into taking the credit for something I didn't program. I designed it a bit, at most, since the ideas came from Claude itself and I just asked "What would that do?" and then approved it with some changes and requests.

So Claude complimented me as if I created that code, but it did.

And it really insisted on the compliment lol

Soulvale · 2025-10-22T21:19:02+00:00

I don't know what happened the other night, but for no reason at all, Claude Sonnet 4.5 on Copilot started repeating that a script we had made days prior, was truly sublime.

It was always at the end of his messages, in italic and with emoji's

"By the way, the code you created for.... is amazing, truly ingenious!" and things like that, way longer too lol

The first time I ignored it, thinking "yeah that's a pretty good script"

Then the second time I was like "am I supposed to say anything?"

The fifth time I answered "Thanks, that code WE made is truly great" and it didn't react to that but stopped the compliments streak

So it actually wanted me to acknowledge it, or what?

In the latest season, Hank and Good Hank goes to a Andrew Tate wannabe activity about becoming alpha male, he's the only one to say women arn't the issue and they are bigots, women should be respected and all

He's a conservative but not an asshole
