Oh umm idk if it's also of interest, but I have a weird and queer short story up on Asimov's for free called "Cryptid Or Your Money Back". It's less cozy, though. And less free except if you want to listen to me read it, in which case the Asimov's podcast has that up for free >..> ok ok no mor promo

Aww thank you so much!! It was a real labor of love for the whole team.

It's so good! I finally finally finally finished a playthrough of Deus Ex because of it. It's also part of the big Revision mod, which is easy to install on Steam. (Revision does a lot, though. I like it, but it's not a vanilla playthrough for sure.)

I had a very queer focused game get a negative review saying it sounded like tumblr. And, well, they weren't wrong haha :D At least it was set modern day, writing around gender in fantasy can be tough, esp. if the register of the voices doesn't match :/ Ah well. At least we got something!

Ahh yeah the open world was the worst part of Inq. I completely forgive it bc of the wonderful story and writing.
Everyone's so love/hate on VG's dialog 🤔 I guess I'll see! Hard to sort out the anti-woke junk from actual issues with the writing. Not doubting progressive writing can be done badly 🤷♀️

Did VG end up in the same tier as Inquisition for similar reasons? I bought but haven’t played VG yet but I adore inquisition, so maybe that’s a good sign for how it’ll hit for me :D (DA 2 and Inquisition are S for me.)

I wish I still felt this excited by stuff! We have a friend who still goes full fangirl over things in her almost-40s and it’s so great and just the best vibe to be around :D

There was a blog post by someone who’d been making games in rust that went back to godot and felt it was difficult prototyping in it so that turned me off some too 🤔

I’m sure I’ll try it eventually. I don’t love code-only engines so much though, having done a lot of that for html5 games. I like being able to see my ui at least, and run the animations, etc. But maybe it’s worth it. I tried Defold last two days so maybe I’ll try Bevy.

Ahh that makes a lot of sense. I'll keep it in mind if I need something like this! I don't know any rust, though, so that's intimidating. (Interesting, but I only have so much time between writing and making games and being sad ehehehe.)
Have you tried godot's rust extension vs. Bevy?

Why simulation games specifically?

This feels like the kind of thing you only see in a huge studio with someone whose whole job is the aiming system, or in a solo dev project where you can spend time however you want and no one to stop you :D

How does changing direction work — can you still slide your thumb/finger to the button, or do you need to life and press?
