this naturally asks the question: can you calculate anything* by just repeating a single cycling set of expressions

one day later, i can confirm that yes, you can (thanks to modulo). i have now computed 3+10 on my calculator, using famously turing-complete language esolangs.org/wiki/Brainfuck

3/3

assignment is an operator, so it can be done within an expression

this means you can set up something, then hold enter to repeatedly apply it (like how you could do ans+1 then spam = on a calculator to make a clicker game), in this case "(x=ans)+x" calculates the fibonacci sequence!

1/3

messing around in c++ and made my own bignum implementation (as one does), so now i can do like 12345^12345 to get a random looking sequence of digits, i guess

heres a video where the planets are all really close to the sun, and the earth is also close but far in comparison

the games actual rotation slowly moves the sun, but the planet position causes the planet to whizz around, which is why the stars are moving really quickly

e there is the eccentricity, which i choose randomly to be some small value, just for fun.

a is the semi-major axis, which is the longer half of the ellipse, this needs to be calculated. it happens that its only based on period, being 3root(period^2) - i also figured this out lol

we made an intro for our jam game

actually the biggest issue is that for some reason the horizontal scroll is one character too short

unity dev learns godot for @dinojam.bsky.social

why cant i hover over warnings in the text editor to see what they are,,,,

i had like 3 issues with the webgl build, and ended up just disabling some features for that version, but ive finished our #gmtk game jam game! woo!

netal.itch.io/snake-snack

truly a playable level

animals were harmed in the making of this game D: (doors can cut you)
