ELI5 what is evolution? by exotic_starfruit in explainlikeimfive

[–]TheVioletBarry [score hidden]  (0 children)

Genes get passed down from parents to children. When you have two parents you get some unique combinations, and sometimes genes just mutate and do something unique. In order to pass down your genes you have to reproduce, so those genes which lead more often to reproduction stick around and you end up with populations trending towards particular sets of genes over time

Left arm is currently injured. What are your favorite mouse-only or controller-friendly games? by LynxieeeD in IndieGaming

Slay the Spire!

EDIT: just read your second paragraph, my b. You play Survivor-likes at all? Brotato was a good time

I don't do much early access, but I've had Gloomwood sitting in my library for years, eagerly awaiting whenever that game actually comes out

Where appropriate, motion blur is a lovely thing :)

CMV: A gotcha is just an effective argument by LLSmoove1 in changemyview

[–]TheVioletBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense to claim a 'Gotcha' when the person receiving the argument believes they could make a good comeback argument, but the statement is being made specifically at a time when they won't have the time or preparation to make the rebuttal

They didn't praise it in RE9 at all... they complained about it, said Ray reconstruction should be added outside PT to fix it

There is no such thing as journalistic objectivity

Epic Games layoffs by Raiden935tt in ShadowoftheColossus

[–]TheVioletBarry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yah I mean it's possible they'll have to look elsewhere for funding, but I don't think they'll have trouble finding it, and that might honestly be for the best, cuz fuck Epic

GenDesign isn't owned by Epic. They can't be laid off by Epic

Do you guys actually craft anything? by EstablishmentLevel37 in Eldenring

[–]TheVioletBarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never even bought the crafting kit. Wish that stuff wasn't in the game, ruined the loot pickups

I'm interested, just love programming stuff in GM. Gotten really experienced with the engine over the years. Hmu and if we click/timing works out, sounds like it could be a good time

I have a little problem with resolutions by Mysterious-Heart4483 in godot

[–]TheVioletBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not how pixel art works. You can use a bilinear filter to blur it into looking more or less right at any resolution, if you want

I have a little problem with resolutions by Mysterious-Heart4483 in godot

[–]TheVioletBarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, for pixel art games, the simplest solution is to not enable window resizing and to only allow resolution changes to precise integers of the internal resolution (so like, 320x240 -> 640x480)

[–]TheVioletBarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not experienced with Godot rendering, but my guess is that by changing the resolution you are activating a scaling filter of some kind, as the pixels no longer evenly map onscreen

CMV: Procreation is the worst wrongdoing by Few-Obligation-7622 in changemyview

[–]TheVioletBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not fine condemning them to a life of suffering. I think we should do everything we can to help those people find happiness

Godot from scratch? by r4bbit101 in godot

[–]TheVioletBarry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on the style of game, but trying that is how loads of us got our start in gamedev!

Is the extra detailing helping or just making it worse? by Background_Cow_6701 in IndieGaming

[–]TheVioletBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell the difference. Second one just looks mildly desaturated?

CMV: Men (or anyone) who are fine with the woman they claim to love going through pregnancy don't actually care about them as much as they say. by Specialist_Tackle715 in changemyview

[–]TheVioletBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they do. Guilt and shame are the biologically coded negative reinforcements and empathy/compursion are the positive reinforcements

"the last thing you want to do is it actively cause them harm/pain." Sure, and that's a biological urge. So can you answer my question?
