Awesome tools and excellent write-up.
I'd honestly love to dive into everything you're using there.

What's your experience with HotReload? I was always apprehensive of giving it a try, due to instability/state leaks concerns, just focused on keeping my compilation times manageable instead.

Ackchyually, refactoring is the process of restructuring existing code without altering its functionality.

Jeans and jacket? That's crazy.

UI designer writing proper commits? Fake as hell.

Probably won't help, but here's the thing: once you become decent at coding and have marketable skills, you'll find yourself in a different market altogether.
it takes much longer than a year.

Would love to connect.

Jeremy Soule is basically the best producer of get-shit-done music.

Looks excellent. Can't wait. 🫶

I strongly recommend wrist strength training.
With both my keyboard (Moonlander) and mouse set as vertical as possible, and despite trying custom-carved wrist supports, the only thing that provided almost immediate pain relief was daily exercise with a hand grip and Powerball.

Tbh, I just automatically disregard any game that is made with those low poly POLYGON asset packs.
I don't think regular users really notice, though.

Is it? Fewer polygons are always good, but you rarely get meaningful improvement by optimizing at this micro level. I'm wondering how the imposters fragment shader implementation looks—if it's still a single texture sampling operation, or more.
