So here's what an ex Reform candidate had to say when he was expelled over pro-Jimmy Saville tweets:

"I understand Reform have got to be careful."

Quite a lot of information packed into eight words.

Things I will never understand #2532165:

Games with photorealistic characters, perfect mo-cap, incredible graphics and sound, tens of millions of dev dollars splashed around on the screen...

...and you can't rebind all the interface keys. Just some of them.

Callisto Protocol, I'm looking at you.

What I like about the Steam back end and the Steam Deck is that they're clearly built for and by people who make games for a living.

It currently takes me less than a minute to build, upload, and deploy #DIEDIEDIE. New builds are there the instant I refresh the page.

Watching #Prime on a Firestick? Here's something to try.

We got fed up getting served ads during programmes, so for two nights, if we got a mid-programme ad, we quit Prime and switched to Netflix for the rest of the night.

We are now three nights without mid-programme ads on Prime.

#DIEDIEDIE is now almost fully playable on pad and Steam Deck - not bad for what started out as a point-and-click puzzler!

It's surreal watching a country elect a complete goddamn moron to be president and then tie itself in knots trying to avoid realising it.

So Dark Star (1974) has:

R2D2 in an x-wing, three years before Star Wars

Bishop's trick with the knife from Aliens

Close Encounters' musical sequence

And a frozen captain in the ship's basement a la Revelation Space.

That film has a lot to answer for.

Don't want to toot my own horn, but my game has over 140 different Global Illumination settings.

And one of them actually does something...

One home-brewed water shader later, #DIEDIEDIE has gorgeous hand-painted skyboxes instead of placeholder AI-generated ones.

Note to those painting skyboxes: don't neglect the lower half. Sometimes someone is going to want to set their game in the sky, and will be forced to turn to AI. #indiedev

I'm struggling to find a viable alternative to AI-generated skyboxes. There are loads of nice packs out there, but they're all Stable Diffusion generated. On the other hand, there doesn't seem to be any OTHER kind of hi-res 360 skybox available. Not sure what to do... Anyone got any suggestions?

January is almost over! Are you like me and still trying to find a place for all those Christmas gifts? I have avoiding dealing with the mess so far by reading about ways to get organised instead and made this blog:

We are truly in the worst timeline.

Trump just announced that the department of collecting import tariffs, which are ultimately paid by Americans, will be called the external revenue service.

And people are going to fall for it.

The news that #facebook is planning to pack itself full of AI generated accounts comes as a relief. I always felt vaguely guilty for not promoting myself on there more actively, but now I can just stop worrying and forget about it completely.

As the parent of a child with #misophonia, it was important for me that the game I'm making be something they can enjoy.

Misophonia is an absolute blight on families affected by it. Imagine not being able to eat together, watch movies together, give help with homework, or sometimes even a hug.

Just spent a couple of days implementing #accessibility features into #DIEDIEDIE. Colour plays an important role in the game, and I didn't want #colourblind individuals missing out. Because I really need the money.

So if you have a PC and are colourblind, I need YOU so I can test out the features!
