more like a platform where the community is able to publish user-created games for people to play. Maybe the different instances could be different types of games (e.g. action, RPG, puzzle) or different languages/regions. For instance, something like Roblox and even Scratch is where people are able to make their own games and make it public so others can play (though for Scratch, it’s not just games).

Budget phones by Chinese companies are really good now, esp. with things like SiC batteries. Very cheap phones now have nice 120hz screens, decent processors for everyday use, very good battery life, nice build quality, and even okayish cameras. It’s really only the software that’s a bit bloated, but it’s (usually) removable (and you could always install a custom ROM)

Budgets phones from non-Chinese companies like Samsung and now Nothing/CMF are quite good too.

edit: when I mean build quality, I don’t mean metal/glass. Budget phones are made of plastic, but nowadays they have nice finishes, are quite durable, and are dust/water resistant.

That makes sense, humans love grabbing the next new thing.

I find it weird that tech reviewers are hyping up 7 years of OS support by Samsung and Google (which is very good!) while simultaneously promoting upgrading to the newest phone every year (which, in my opinion, is quite wasteful)

Yeah, budget phones have gotten really good. That makes sense, the companies have a financial incentive to make the better phone than everyone else.

Kind of crazy that we mere humans have developed these super-advanced silicon wafers that can do millions of operations every second and we develop new, better ones every year.

in or out?

infinite what?

how much zoom?

Hiya, I put out the godot project files on codeberg!

maybe, but I’ll stick with side-scrolling, at least for now

something like hollow knight could be interesting…

Think I’ll go with side-scrolling then. Thanks!

Never made a game that’s isometric, so that would be equally, if not more, difficult than top-down.

ok, I’ve edited my post to add a few more details about the game! It will be pixel art and will be a mix of exploration and puzzles, and possibly action (fighting the gods and their underlings). It will have lots of different references to ancient Greek myths and legends in the decorations, puzzles, etc.

Why are there a bunch of elements with the same symbol? You can’t do that! Also, why do some of them have over 5 letters? It’s either one or two…they are also arbitrarily placed everywhere, maybe each group could be a different genre or topic? I am also bothered by the weird L shape, WHY???

cool!

coool

oh, oops.

ants are the best 🐜

do I get a prize?
