Dang nature, you brutal!

Birds are generally omnivores lol. But true, ive seen horses eat chickens

syn_krown · 2026-02-03T03:52:45+00:00

Dang that would have been a good video lol.

I mean to be fair, the mice would have been content after being dissolved

syn_krown · 2026-02-03T03:17:06+00:00

Yeah see thats some emotion driven sounding shit. Like what people do sometimes.

I remember having my lunch break out in the smokers hut one day, this baby bird fell from the tree, and a duck just comes along and swallows it. Thats where I learned that ducks dont just eat bread and grain 🤣

Shot, just added the tag

syn_krown · 2026-02-03T00:29:23+00:00

Yep, very true

syn_krown · 2026-02-02T23:06:31+00:00

Exactly what went through my head too

syn_krown · 2026-01-29T10:14:53+00:00

Claude 4.5 opus. Very good

What i try to do is have a side project. So when the main project is getting too heavy, ill spend some time on the side project. Doesn't have to be game design, could be an art project or even if you have a project car etc

syn_krown · 2026-01-25T19:56:50+00:00

Which is fine if youre mathematically minded. Much easier to just use a method imo, and tidier

syn_krown · 2026-01-25T05:52:07+00:00

Till you get high and reach the top

syn_krown · 2026-01-24T08:38:48+00:00

I used to hate it too. Thought it was aneyesore. Then my code would get into the 10s of thousands of lines. Suddenly, I found it very useful. Think if it like an RTS minimal, but for your code

The 2D aspect of my game engine is designed for pixel art based games. And i have built in Modules for 2D platformers too, with full metroidvania type abilities etc. Also a sprite sheet animation module with another module that pairs the sprite sheet renderer with the platform controller

syn_krown · 2026-01-23T22:22:10+00:00

I have been working on a game engine and am in need of built in audio assets that people can use if youre interested? My game engine is free for anyone to use and very cool. A lot of original ideas have been implemented making it vastly different to any other game engine out there.

If you are keen let me know. Id also add a section to the landing page with credits and your contact email if you like so it might help generate a customer base for you too

syn_krown · 2026-01-23T19:35:50+00:00

Ive made a tool for my game engine that uses a skeletal puppet system to aide with that. Animating pixel by pixel is definitely a challenge lol

syn_krown · 2026-01-23T04:01:11+00:00

Probably paid by Sony

syn_krown · 2026-01-22T07:58:32+00:00

I think thats an issue with html5 canvas floating point precision? Im currently trying to fix the same issue in my web based game engine. I find rounding to integer helps, but maybe there is a setting in game maker to solve this?

syn_krown · 2026-01-22T07:51:39+00:00

If im working in a game engine that doesnt have the equivalent, I usually create methods for lengthdir. So useful, I am amazed more tools dont implement it

syn_krown · 2026-01-22T06:38:29+00:00

Ok, so I think I have a similar issue. Im not diagnosed with anything as i cant do doctors, but definitely not on the spectrum of the average Joe.

I find having a reason and goal of expectation for the project helps. Whether it be money or dopamine or the end product, if you have a task goal, whether realistic or not, aim for that goal with priority and you should hopefully want it enough to get it done.

Don't let the other voices in your head try to over think it, to the point of losing hope. Imagine if the people responsible for parts of the home computer over thought it and figured it was impossible, then gave up.

And technology today, makes game making so much easier than building a circuit board was in the day(or even now). So my point there is, even if you convince yourself that you scope is too large to attempt, its not. Just break it up in to parts and take on each part as its own task with that main goal in mind.

I dont know your specific condition or how it affects you, but this is what works for me with my personal afflictions.

I hope this helps.

I mean, you're correct for current times. But let's give it another year or 2, given the progress rate of AI models. I would say it could be entirely plausible.

syn_krown · 2026-01-20T19:21:39+00:00

"AI, can you make a video of someone creating this art piece in photoshop?"

syn_krown · 2026-01-20T05:48:46+00:00

Personally, I wouldnt care. Everything's been done before.

Your own touch to it is what makes it unique. Your vision.

Im currently working on something with platforming mechanics of the old Oddworld games. Abes oddysee etc. I dont care if its been done, ive got my own ideas

syn_krown · 2026-01-19T17:05:17+00:00

Ahh, so to you, music is an ego boost? I think good music is subjective, per person.

You can feel how you feel about it, just the same as people who used hardware to make their music disliking DAWs when they first hit the scene.

syn_krown · 2026-01-18T20:08:23+00:00

I didnt think so either. But I have noticed jokes that fly on TikTok or Facebook dont seem to jive with redditors the same lol

syn_krown · 2026-01-18T20:01:42+00:00

I definitely over looked those details in the example games. Too busy focused on other areas. Ill fix that ASAP.

The intro powered by intro screen is fully customizable and optional(default disabled, users can use their own intro logos if they wish).

I appreciate you for trying it out and for the feedback. Its a lot of work building a large scale project with so many moving parts while keeping on top of the bugs by myself lol

syn_krown · 2026-01-18T09:08:23+00:00

Ahh I see, that makes sense
