I make mods and sometimes I do a art
Out east seeing family

Got a laptop with me but may not have many opportunities to work while I’m here. A welcome change of pace.

Whenever ayy-aye arguments crop up, I think people comparing it to mechanized farming really sum up the core issue. Not just about laziness, not just about theft, not just about jobs, but about viewing art not as something you craft and cherish, but as something you harvest and consume in bulk.

Gonna be out visiting family for the next week or so, hoping to carve out some time for personal work during that time.

Meanwhile, more level work for SteelFront:

I just discovered that I have been unemployed since the end of September.

There is a chance that this is a temporary state of affairs, but in the meantime I've been looking to leverage any connections I can. Like I've been modding SteelRaven's game since 2018 so maybe he has something for me.

"I tried playing SteelFront but didn't like it so I just bought Ravenfield and downloaded the mod instead"

A bit of a financial panic on my end. At this rate, I'm going to start soliciting supplementary work until things get a chance to level out.

This has also been a reminder for me to start building a proper portfolio, so I will also need to get the ball rolling on that too.

[SteelFront] Still being grayboxed, but hoping to do some more worldbuilding in a few new maps we got on tap.

May need to start finding new sources of income. Suddenly starting to sharply regret not properly tending to a portfolio...

It's nice when people tell me "oh thank you for your service" but cmon man, my stations were a buoy tender where I just scraped gunk all day, and a base where I picked up cigarette butts (though the smokers on base were thankful, they were about to lose their spot cos of the mess)

Messing around with a concept for a space sandbox where you fly around the moons of a gas giant using orbital mechanics, delivering cargo, salvaging wrecks. and taking whatever jobs will keep you flying.

Describe your ideal space ship for getting by in this world.

I like them in 3D, but they lack the kinda silly, satirical tone I was going for. Our original idea was for a more overtly goofy, friendly jab at hard-scifi and alt-history trends, iunno if that'd resonate with players, or retain our own interest either.

re someone on twitter pointing out that identifiable silhouettes out of context aren't as critical in 3D games as they are in 2D media, I agree, but generally find silhouettes to be a good starting point for designs a player needs to be able to easily tell apart at varying distances and lighting.

It is a bit frustrating whenever I talk about personal game projects, or those I'm doing with Baron and BigPlay, and suddenly I get a chorus of "but what about Ravenfield? :((("

like yknow Steel isn't paying me, right? I do need to think about how my time will pay my bills...

You go into gamedev telling yourself you're gonna temper your expectations, start small and simple. Then that "small and simple" little project becomes the bane of your existence as half your players report it makes their computers explode for reasons you can't fathom or recreate.

Didn't like the look of the "kneepads" and "thighs" on the Ajax, added some more detail.

Was also thinking of some kinda wire-cutter for the kneepads for cable obstacles meant to trip mechs, but couldn't quite decide on a good design that didn't look out of place.
