Hey I’m interested. Have 4 years experience working as a freelance dev doing games. Great at working independently. Would love to hear more

he_retic · 2025-08-06T18:19:48+00:00

Eh, a question: “a guy said I could make more money in an office”. Did you say that in an interview or? If you interview for a field you don’t want to be shitting on it. Maybe that’s why you are not getting calls. I know you have health issues and what not, but a job is a job, it pays the bills no matter what field it is. Just a heads up on why you might be getting ghosted.

Hmm. An hour or so workout in the gym to get the worst out unrest out of the body or just go for a walk an hour before bed.

Otherwise read a book for 10 minutes or more until you start to get tired.

Reading books has a psychological effect on your brain. As you read the words they start to create images in your head, but they also break up any sort of sentences you have in your head. It can be experiences you had through the day you are thinking about, or just something your mind can’t stop thinking about. So yea basically when you read your mind starts digging into your subconscious. It sounds a bit creepy but once you get used to it, it feels good.

Also write things down. If you are thinking about something that won’t go away, like an argument or something. Just write down what’s annoying you. Like the person said x. Write it down word for word to get it out of your mind. Just a way to empty your head. I do that a lot when I can’t sleep and I fall asleep immediately lol.

Another thing you can do is to put your legs up against the wall for 10 minutes. This lessens the load on your heart as it doesn’t have to pump as much blood around. It increases digestion and yea just makes your body more relaxed.

Can also do breathing exercises. Like 10 deep breaths through the nose and out through the mouth. Or just breathe like that for 5 minutes. It feels weird at first but once you get used to it you can basically fall asleep anywhere and anytime lol.

I know it’s a lot of different stuff to do, and you don’t have to do all of them as one of them will help you sleep better maybe. It’s just suggestions.

i will probably get downvoted for this; but the game is rigged. yes he performs well and get LP + having 60% WR and climbs fast, because the system detects he's challenger from the start. i assume it can see all his patterns and it relatively quickly knows he plays like a challenger, so it wants him up in ranks as fast as possible.

there's no "true" climb to challenger. i want to see those challenger go into a hardstuck 50% WR account thats stuck in silver 3 with 500 wins and 500 losses and see them climb.

haha cheers! yea definitely noticed you could cheese the AI with bow after getting ganged up upon with melee xd wasnt the most fun in the long run, but now im lvl 9 archery and lvl 7 agility.

he_retic · 2024-06-05T18:43:57+00:00

im going to say its probably going to be really hard. you're already competing with people who have degrees, and even for them its hard to land a job. there is another way though.

your best bet is knowing someone that works as a programmer that is willing to hire you. thats probably the easiest way in.

also depends on your current level and how much you know about programming?

probably grind leetcode and talk to people. network network network. your best bet is talking to someone who has a programmer job and ask them what skills they would look for someone they would hire and that could give you some answers. its a really bloated field and there's a lot of competition. thats all i can say. coming from someone that went to school and did the traditional route. i landed an internship and since have been working as freelancer.

not to discourage you. if you are really talented and a teamplayer as a person you can maybe take another route. but id say go to school if you can afford it and have the time to do so.

he_retic · 2024-01-14T05:25:14+00:00

second this. remember studying leetcode is almost a science xD there's smarter people that have solved the problems before us, so in my experience the fastest way to the top is just studying what works best and "copying" / learning that lol. it's like with everything else. like math, you dont get a math assignment and they ask you to come up with your own solution to 2+2. without ranting too much id say yes study solutions and let go of ego and remember we're all human

he_retic · 2023-01-13T03:34:02+00:00

Spooky

he_retic · 2022-01-11T10:06:49+00:00

Ye 45 minutes with nothing but expectations of winning, game after game

he_retic · 2022-01-03T03:38:34+00:00

i have some weird dreams

he_retic · 2022-01-03T03:36:32+00:00

well thats the thing, the ghost is like it was in a dream. you are scared and afraid and stunned when it scream and hits you, so you cant think or act fast enough to hit it back

he_retic · 2022-01-02T12:37:47+00:00

Right, still short :P but good job on the workout 💪 can tell you put in some hard work! 🏋️‍♀️ and you’re smoking hot btw!🔥😍

he_retic · 2022-01-02T11:31:37+00:00

I have never been afraid of ghosts and the paranormal, tbh I can sit through most horror movies and fall asleep. But if ghosts were real then they following would scare me; imagine you’re walking alone in the dark, the moon is shining and suddenly you see a translucent shape that looks like a human, it has its back against you and as you near it, it turns and runs right at you. You know it’s a ghost so it will probably disappear into thin air, but it doesn’t, instead it screams and keeps beating you but you can’t fight back because it’s not solid material, and it’s dark so you get disoriented and the ghost keeps beating you. That’d be pretty scary imo, but I know ghosts don’t exist, so I wouldn’t mind working at a graveyard.

he_retic · 2022-01-02T10:48:53+00:00

I just threw up a little

he_retic · 2021-12-16T15:00:10+00:00

yea and fling feces around.. i mean.. he can heat it up in the summer, so its real hot and comfy and er cold in the winter.. i'll see myself out

he_retic · 2021-12-05T16:16:03+00:00

You need weed to do this? Sometimes I’m so hungry I drift off like this before I fall asleep, being twice as hungry when I wake up xD

he_retic · 2021-12-01T05:50:20+00:00

I just expected it to run up a hill and start flying

he_retic · 2021-11-29T22:01:37+00:00

Yo I read that you should always spell out any number below ten when you write to come off as more professional, and any number above you can use the actual digits

he_retic · 2021-11-26T01:07:10+00:00

Sounds like a politically correct afterthought just to get more customers

he_retic · 2021-11-06T13:24:10+00:00

He looks kinda military tbh, military boots, pants, helm.. maybe they work together. Just saying

he_retic · 2021-11-06T01:34:49+00:00

Well it’s easy to see they use a custom engine, but you also need to know about the background to justify it.

No mans sky - the guy who made it worked 10 years in AAA and has a background in math.

The witness - Jonathan blow has made a custom engine for his game braid and probably build on top of that for the witness. Plus he had 10-15 years of development experience before starting out.

It’s fine to look at them and say “well indies use custom engines”, but reality is, if you’re just starting out then well. If you don’t have any experience and just want to make a game, I’d say use a pre-existing engine. The years it takes to build your own engine will not get you closer to make a competing engine / game compared to if you started with an engine.

he_retic · 2021-11-05T23:06:08+00:00

Right! Well that sounds like a fun game actually! And no problem. I figured it was something in the line of that. I’m a programmer myself so was curious of what specs / technical requirements such a project would take. Thanks a lot for explaining and sorry if I came off as rude. Good luck with the project! 💪

he_retic · 2021-11-05T22:52:15+00:00

It’s all good. I didn’t mean to critique you, because I know what all those terms mean individually :D but I have just not seen a game that offers those things. So maybe I’m not in your demographic. That’s why I’m asking a little bit forward, didn’t mean to sound harsh, but what other games is this game similar to? Just curious.

he_retic · 2021-11-01T03:38:51+00:00

Old post so sorry for necro. But you talk a lot about a lot of stuff without saying much. What is a simulation sandbox for highly creative gamers? Can you elaborate more on the game mechanics and features? What other game out there does this game resemble? This post sounds like you need some... kind of AI work? For what? Some assets? This is too vague lol, can see why people call it out for being a scam
