  • As typical as it is for the current indie game dev climate, making a ‘Vampire Survivors’ type game is probably a really good starting point for game development. 2D games are somewhat easier to make than 3D ones, so a 2D roguelike could be fun (but get’s very complex very quickly) or a old-school Zelda styled game would also be pretty cool in my opinion while remaining fairly simple.

    Here’s are a couple other avenues to learn off the top of my head:

    • Follow along with one or two of the large amount of tutorials they have for the engine and adding new features and gameplay mechanics to them when you feel like it.

    • Think of a cool but simple idea and try to execute it yourself through trial and error, referencing the online docs and asking questions to the Godot game dev community.

    It can be super daunting as there is a lot to learn. Try to learn by working on something that you yourself think is fun and that’ll keep you more motivated :)


  • Was feeling alright this morning with a decent amount of energy. Starting exercising again on my work break but my office is not cooling me down enough.

    Currently running a program (software dev) that’s taking ages to finish so I feel like I’m not putting in enough effort but can’t do much about it.

    Going to paint some miniatures and play BG3 when I get home which is always good.

    Overall I’d say pretty decent and an improvement over my last week :) Just trying to make small improvements to my daily life helps in a big way.






  • This is indeed an unpopular opinion!

    But I’ve worked in fast food so I cannot in good conscience agree with it. I have some appreciation for assertive people with legitimate complaints, but “Karen’s” as we know them are not that. They tend towards illegitimate and illogical complaints because they seem to feel entitled to get what they want, sometimes regardless of what they specifically asked for.

    Nevertheless it’s a hospitality workers endless burden to deal with these types. I understand the specific merits of what your post outlines, I just don’t like it 🙂

    Just use whatever words you feel like. Unless you’re trying to use the most complex words possible at all times, no one really cares. At best people will think you’re eloquent. At worst, snobbish. But if they think that, then fuck em, who cares. Don’t get hung up on the way you sound. That’ll just breed insecurities
