Headed out early this morning in hopes of photographing a snowy sunrise, but the clouds never parted.

I have been assured that if you do street photography, people will just ask you to take their photo, and indeed I got asked twice today.

Our upcoming game The Hearth and Harbour is fully 2D, but with some neat tricks we’ve made it look 3D. Ethan, our environment artist, did this with a special type of texture called a Normal Map. (Thread! 1/7)

For today's Eldritch 2 devlog, I wrote a bit about my in-game level editor and the process of building dungeon rooms. Including drawing navmesh by hand, for reasons!

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

In the tutorial for Kingdom Hearts, in the middle of telling you critical things like how to move, jump, attack, and interact, the game tells you that breaking crates can sometimes give you items. This happens literally 0 times after the tutorial. Not even one additional time.
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Imitating the statue. I'm not sure the composition works on this one, but I was glad I spotted this little serendipitous moment. #photography
