Hey I'm Alex! I'm a college student studying game dev, and I like to talk about anime and manga on the internet
I like pretty much all kinds, but my favorite stories tend to me romance, and especially yuri
You should read How Do We Relationship? and Otherside Picnic

The annoying thing about the "oh we left a placeholder" generative AI slop excuse is that that is EXACTLY NOT how you should be using placeholders. Anything "not obviously terrible with a panicked hurried half-awake glance" is getting shipped.
In gamedev, if you're using a placeholder asset, best practices involve marking it as placeholder so garishly and offensively clearly PLACEHOLDER that you can't possibly miss it. Also flagging that asset in the dev process so it can be identified quickly before the final build.

I know people like to dog on C++, and for good reason, but I just can't help but love the language
I just have so much fun making stuff with it

One of the most fascinating things to me is the continued insistence from Holofans that it's somehow against company policy to show explicit support for trans people and that the JP girls especially avoid that kind of thing

Believing that modern anime is substantially worse—or especially substantially less entertaining when it's terrible—is a massive fucking skill issue and tells me you aren't even trying to watch new stuff

I ripped unity out of the project and am now doing it with raylib-cs instead
I really hope I can get my c# mojo back and relearn how to use unity

I'm actually really sad about this tbh
I really enjoy C++ and making games without an engine, but Unity and C# is how I learned to code so not being able to go back to it feels like losing a part of myself

Going back to unity and c# for a project after a year in unreal and(separately, we haven't got to use flavoured c++ yet) c++ is pretty jarring
Using unreal hasn't really affected me much, but using c++ without an engine has made me completely forget the workflow of using a real game engine

I would do the engagement bait thing for attention, but frankly I don't think anyone on here knows me well enough not to just put Bocchi or Renako since those are the 2 profile pictures I've had for the last year or so lmao

I get to work in unity again for a brief project, and so I'm trying to get my dev environment set up again, but roslyn keeps complaining about formatting when comments are present for whatever reason

I was doing the silksong speedrun achievement for one of my college assignments and I noticed 2 things:
1. It's incredible how fast even a novice like me can get through the game following the any% route
2. Post nerf Moorwing is a fucking joke lmao
