I'll include a screenshot so it qualifies for , but:

Our demo is finally out!!!

It's a Character Driven Detective game with Chess Based Battle Mechanics (I promise it's fun even if you don't like chess! (I suck at chess!))

Tracing the history of emoji, surprisingly, back to the 80s. “Once you accept that emoji existed in the 1980s, more things come to light.” https://blog.gingerbeardman.com/2024/05/10/emoji-history-the-missing-years/

Last year, we learned our porcupines do not like getting their paws wet. So my wife built them a little stone bridge to cross the 1 inch deep trench 🥹 They seem to have mastered it! Anything to not get wet. Even if they’re already soaked from the pouring rain…

17 second, black and white trailcam footage of a beefy porcupine lumbering down an old path to an 8 inch wide trench that carries water from the forest to the brook. It approaches cautiously, check the stones that have been placed as a bridge, and slowly walks across. The video is taken in the middle of the night and it is raining.

(it's a waterpark tycoon game inspired by classics such as Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and 2!)

Did you know that road design included features?

In the ruins of , you'll notice small white stones interspersed with the large paving ones along the extensive roads.

Those white are 'cats eyes', i.e. gems that have a single line of inclusion of crystals of another mineral inside.

Upon light reflective on them (from the ), they enable the walker to see that they are still on the right path!

The 13th annual Boston GameLoop returns August 3rd!

GameLoop is a user-generated unconference, meaning YOU get to pitch and vote on the day's sessions! Attendees range from local indies to folks from studios like Harmonix and Epic, Rockstar, BioWare, and Bethesda. A full day of sessions, breakfast, lunch, and a swanky t-shirt all for $50. We think it's a pretty darn good deal 🧐

As it's been 20 years since I made the original, I thought I'd recreate my "Monitor Slapping" GIF. Except now I'm slapping myself through time....

A man sitting at a computer, being slapped by a hand coming out of the monitor. He reaches in and slaps a younger version of himself on the other side of the monitor

Decided to modify my existing USS Yeager corridor set (first image) to create a corridor for the USS Cerberus.

Still in progress, of course, but you can compare the first two images and see the different style I'm going for with this one. Besides adding more details, I've still got to replace the lift with a different style.

USS Cerberus corridor. The floors are carpeted grey and blue, while the walls are mostly different shades of grey. There are blue lights near the bottom of the wall segments.

Recreated the turbolift graphic from the Prometheus, but on the Cerberus colors for the lift. I also modeled the handrails and the remaining corridor panels.

Oh, cool. Determinants in Japan in the 17thC

"Seki’s approach to “concealed” problems includes a combination of operations he refers to as “interchange” and “cross-multiplication” (kōshiki and shajō, respectively), which effectively involve extracting a determinant. Seki reportedly shared this method in 1683."

@TruthSandwich got me interested in the vibrational modes of bells. They're not harmonics with frequencies 1, 2, 3, 4, ... times the lowest frequency: they're much more complicated! That's why bells sound clangy. This chart shows how they sometimes work.

The lowest frequency vibrations are called:

• the 'hum' (the lowest frequency)

• the 'prime' (with frequency roughly 2 times that of the hum)

• the 'tierce' (roughly 2.4 times the hum, so a minor third above the prime)

• the 'quint' (roughly 3 times the hum, so a major fifth above the prime)

• the 'nominal' (roughly 4 times the hum, so an octave above the prime)

and so on. If you think these names are illogical, join the club! One reason it's tricky is that the loudest vibration is not the lowest one: it's the 'prime'.

The numbers I just gave you should be taken with a big grain of salt. They really depend on the shape of the bell, and you'd have to be great at designing bells to make them come out as shown here. It's not like a violin string or flute, where the math is on your side.

This quote helps explain the chart:

"Modern theory separates the modes of vibration into those produced by the "soundbow" and those produced by the remaining bell "shell". The bell vibrates both radially and axially and the principal vibrational modes are shown in the diagram together with their classification using the scheme proposed by Perrin et al. This scheme consists of the mode of vibration (RIR - Ring Inextensional Radial, RA - Ring Axial, R=n - Shell driven), the number of meridians (where “m” is half the number of meridians) and the number of nodal circles (n)."

Starting to sound like orbitals in quantum mechanics!

Treating myself to an awful game.

I want you to understand how awful this game is:

If you don't turn vsync on, you can't move. Framerates over 60fps cause the inputs to glitch out.

That's right, "hold RIGHT control to run" is not the worst thing about these controls.

Update: This thread GOES PLACES. 🧵
