Still doesn’t feel like the Switch 2 is worth it. The visual upgrades aren’t that good and Nintendo doesn’t deserve my coin because of their shitty practices.
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet had a vast array of technical issues on release - but the Switch 2 upgrade is dramatically improved in just about every way: youtu.be/YWRt-PiOzlI

It’s safe to say in my career, AI is pretty prevalent.
Though I think we’re safe from AI taking over the world as it seems to not be able to get past using em dashes for everything

This is going to be a twin stick shooter.
I’m mostly making it for myself, but is this something folks other than me would be interested in playing?

Did a bunch more to Geometry Blast this morning. Added sound, updated rendering to be a little better performance wise. Starting to tweak menus more. Oh and I’m going to see how it handles in Steam Deck later.
For now, enjoy! youtu.be/pROZ9-2gFq4

I lost my job on Friday and now this is the night before what worse been the usual Monday and I find myself unable to sleep. Anxiety I thought I had managed to banish long ago is back with a vengeance that I’ve never seen. Didn’t even leave the house today and now sleep is impossible

Just finished @scalzi.com’s When the Moon Hits Your Eye. Loved it.
Though I do hope there’s a follow on at some point that’s linked to that ending.

Agree. I need to get around to finishing it but the problem as always is time, when there’s so much else to do and play

Star Wars Outlaws is a great “Star Wars Scoundrel Simulator.” It’s worth playing for Sabacc alone.

I’m currently working on adding the ability for teachers and staff to be able to add reviews of MATs more accurately on #Piaget. ATM folks can leave their anonymous reviews of the school and give a rating for their trust but not a review. #EduSky #TeachingUK #Education

piagetapp is quickly consuming all of my free time. Lots to consider and build further, but most of all I’m genuinely excited about the prospect of helping to improve teacher wellbeing and improve education standards in the UK by making it more transparent for all edu staff. #edusky
