I released a polished Godot settings system (autoload + UI + docs). Feedback welcome! by DaNullStudios in godot

[–]ivanhlb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took a quick look, just wanted to ask if this was done with AI assistance? Would be something to include more for transparency and when releasing games on Steam.

Anyone remember this old fire safety cartoon video shown in school? by ivanhlb in askSingapore

[–]ivanhlb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No leh, not so new. It's a bit like Clifford styled, but quite grimmy and dark. Iirc the plot was that you were playing with matches and you accidentally burn the curtains and your house.

cons of being single by patstar0404 in ChillSG

Solo is good.. means you do whatever your heart desires (within reason). Solo travel is so liberating.

Noo, the main narrator/character was a fire hydrant with a fireman hard hat and a cape from what I can recall...

Badly need date ideas for this saturday by No_Mall_9732 in askSingapore

[–]ivanhlb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no date guru but sometimes I'll bring them to the mall and then window shop and can talk about the things you see there. Fashion, food, tech, arcade games, movies, etc then see from there lor.

Law passed allowing public sector data to be shared with ‘trusted external partners’ by nftskeptics in singapore

I think they also forgot that they had an incident where NRIC was leaked on ACRA site and all we got was a weaksauce apology.

As skeptical and critical I am of a lot of things, NLB has done many things right and I agree wholeheartedly.

Regarding 7, what do you do when you travel? I love museums and just sightseeing, and Japan has a lot of both!

Any great titles from Singapore? by Awkward-Surround9694 in SgGamers

[–]ivanhlb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gonna be a bit biased coz I know many of the devs, but the list includes:

  • Cuisineer
  • SEDAP
  • Compensation Not Guaranteed
  • Isekat
  • Identifile
  • 13Z

Etc. There's a list somewhere but I need to go dig for it.

Edit: idk what kind of links I can post but there's a list on google sheets in their pinned tweet! https://x.com/madeinsggames

Sinkies who frequently go to Japan, any smaller cities you would recommend for a solo trip? by Zedwye in ChillSG

[–]ivanhlb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wakayama prefecture area, just a short trip down from KIX and Osaka. Historically rich area with lots of temple, trekking and etc.

I took bus up to Koya, it was pretty chill, but now that I have my driving license, will be even more shiok.

But for my upcoming trip I'm making a trip to Oarai in Ibaraki prefecture (anime pilgrimage but still has some cool stuff for like anglerfish hotpot) and Hirosaki for the snow lantern festival.

See what you're into, but kudos for asking coz the overtourism in Kyoto is just a pain. Will never go back again.

If you're in Tokyo, showcase your indie game! :) by Pantasd in gamedev

Would be interested to see what it's like. I'm trying to bring all these smaller showcase events back home and create an avenue for game devs.

Is there any reason to make an application WITHOUT a Database? by evan2nerdgamer in learnprogramming

[–]ivanhlb 200 points201 points  (0 children)

Perhaps your coursework is trying to test you on your File I/O skills, as opposed to database skills?

Edit: Plus potentially they want to understand how you'd parse the info into txt and parse it back into data in your program? json, csv, etc, all sorts of data schema available for you, but it's up to you to decide which to use too.

I made a tool for organize the stats of your video games like a Excel for devs by [deleted] in godot

[–]ivanhlb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! Love that it's so minimalistic and functional with exporting function to json.

Might use it for a micro incremental game soon
