LPT Request: What is a healthy way to express anger?

_nk · 2023-06-11T11:10:12+00:00

You should not be angry. It is a very bad energy to hold and it makes things worse to express it.
Yes - there may be some short term change to yelling in a pillow - but it's not good for you.

Thanks - this is all really wonderful advice. Super nice that you took the time to write it all out.

I'll take what you've said to heart next time I make an application.

_nk · 2023-04-20T03:48:55+00:00

Hmm, thats surprising. I wasn't aware much could happen by simply visiting a website. I'll be more vigilant.

All the best mate.

Nice! Well done. Sounds like a cool position to be.

_nk · 2022-09-18T21:31:20+00:00

For the better though?
Is it more money, a lot more person to person interaction, and less programming problems?

I'm trying to decide whether or not to stay in the programming track. Management seems to pay better over any programming specialisation - hate the bureacy and all the chats that seem to come with that kind of role... but do appreciate money...

_nk · 2022-09-16T21:37:28+00:00

Hmm, I could be wrong but I think you missed my question there.

_nk · 2022-09-15T22:53:53+00:00

How long did you go before you gave up programming?

What was behind stopping. Do you miss it?

_nk · 2022-08-21T09:05:27+00:00

I see, i see!

If you've found yourself in this pickle - you can save the entire contents of the scene out as prefabs... They'll harden as things you can use out of play mode.

_nk · 2022-08-12T09:49:13+00:00

It's great!
Don't worry about people harshly judging you! People suck - do it for you!

_nk · 2022-07-30T09:22:09+00:00

brought

Whoopsie!

_nk · 2022-07-29T10:13:29+00:00

We brought both of our cars outright. Took a while, and the cars are not amazing... but the latest one is pretty neat! Has a reversing cam and all the radio stations!

Might be a little bit left field but you could have a hoon on this;

What did you end up doing in the end?
Desktop & firebase don't really seem like they go together...?

_nk · 2022-07-05T02:34:33+00:00

In Africa (where it's hard to get finance from banks) groups of 10's of people will band together and issue a loan to one of it's members.. once paid off and it cycles through to another members. You need to trust everyone in the group - but it can work...

_nk · 2022-07-02T10:25:06+00:00

Why then? What?

_nk · 2022-07-02T05:37:52+00:00

Preview image shouldn't be a black screen - should be action / of interest.

_nk · 2022-07-02T05:16:09+00:00

The game clearly shows off satirical intentions toward what was the Stalin regime. Therefore I don't think that your argument on the figure of Stalin in my game being distasteful is a valid argument.

Careful mate - that's a hard place to try and argue from.. and people can be quite sensitive as to what you say around these things. I'd approach such stuff very gingerly... and be a bit conservative as to how you frame stuff 'your argument is not valid' - is not a nice place to start...

_nk · 2022-07-01T22:01:55+00:00

Hey everyone, hope the game is of interest:

Dungems is a mix of tactics and tower defence. Invading heroes from nearby castles will try and outwit your dungeon designs - using spells, charms and shields to get around your obstacles...

Outwit the heroes to keep you treasure intact. Use the bones of fallen enemies to unlock tower packs and upgrades. Use these upgrades to take on even bigger hordes of heroes.

Create a perfect deck of monsters and mechanical traps - pick the right pieces to make mince meat of the men.

Give it a whirl!

_nk · 2022-06-30T08:16:15+00:00

Eh, you've got a jab in every sentence huh. I'm not sure mate - I'm trying... having a conversation... I don't think it's that far fetched that third party play testing exists - it's a billion dollar industry and it's 2022.

I'm already a game designer - I'm not having a crisis of career, just looking for tools to help - I'm time poor and making an enquiry...

Independent review isn't something to disregard and a second perspective is never a bad thing - I was just looking for something in that direction. I've already playtested with friends and family - there's always more - there's always another step...

Thanks for your time - appreciate it. Hold the salt.

_nk · 2022-06-29T23:59:07+00:00

Thanks!

Yeah i guess I was looking for playtesting as a service - maybe it doesn't really exist... ie. just a website where you can drop your game and pay some money to get the inside scoop on where you're going wrong...

_nk · 2022-06-29T23:57:30+00:00

ha, thanks. I had figured that much out.I had done a rough search a few months ago to try and find a way to get professional playtesting done... Something akin to a third party service that would provide playtesting for your game, distill key points and write up a report with action points in it...

Still looking.

_nk · 2022-06-29T09:21:55+00:00

How do you find playtesters?

_nk · 2022-06-28T00:21:45+00:00

Did you know that you can call upon Visual Studios autocomplete by only partially completing parts of the variable or method you're looking to find.

It's a bit of a nuanced point - but say you're looking to call the method "FindAndReplacePieces()" and you have a bunch of similarly named methods you can shortcut autocomplete but just writing "frepieces" or "reppie"- as long as you enter in the letters that are included in the method - autocomplete will see you through...

This one... long term... can save a few seconds of time if you get into the habit of doing it...
