#Godot question: you have your main game scene Game.tscn, containing a few managers (all of them are their own scenes). Do you usually populate their fields in their own scenes, or in Game.tscn? What about non-manager nodes? Is it a matter of preference? Any perf benefit? @godotengine.org #gamedev

This is like when you start OBS to capture your desktop and it does the infinitely nested desktop thing
Handling nested resources in #godot is one of the modern circles of hell

Striker is my first "playing with dad on the TV" memory for me ❤️ Before that I only have "watching dad play on the PC while sitting on his lap" memories.
Recently remembered the Striker series of soccer games and how amusingly almost all of its entries kept reusing the same illustration from the original for the cover, sometimes just recolored.

It’s gone. Three years of work by a talented, delightful team. Fittingly, Wheels of Aurelia was also a story about fighting for the very rights that are now being eroded.

I was reflecting on the fact that if we sleep 8h a day, and we live - say - until 90 (lol), that means we will have spent 30 actual years sleeping. This makes me feel somewhat uncomfortable.
