I posted before over my frustrations with Microsoft Azure taking so long to do a Windows+Mac build. The frustration reached a boiling point last week when for no reason the Windows build started generating compile errors in stdlib headers. I reverted back to the last build that compiled but the errors continued. I’ve got to assume something changed in the Azure Windows VM, but there was no mention of it.

This new beta 4 adds a new round of bugfixes and enhancements over the previous dev snapshots, as well as some nice new features.

In this article, Sande Chen reports on the use of educational live-action online games (LAOG), a variant of educational LARPs. During the pandemic lockdown, it was impossible to play Live Action Role-Playing games (LARPs) that require face-to-face contact. LARP designers like Isabella Negri were forced to consider how LARPs could be played in an online-only setting.

I’ve spent some time looking at various texture compression formats and libraries (the ones meant for GPUs, i.e. “ASTC, BC7” kind, not the “PNG, JPG” kind). Here’s a fully incomprehensible chart to set the stage (click for a semi-interactive page): If your reaction is “whoa what is this mess?!”, that’s good.

Hi there! It’s been a while since I last updated you about my game, so before you start getting worried , here’s a quick post to tell you it’s all going well!!! Why no updates? I didn’t share new updates for multiple reasons, some were intentional and some were not. A new type of game. This platformer is different from “standard” ones and many development rules don’t work here, either them being game design, programming, and art.
