You’d be amazed at what you can make! :) I am not formally trained, and picked up a tonne from doing (and youtube) - smarts be darned, I have fun! :) If there’s a game you’d like to make or look into how it’s put together, I find it to be a fun hobby definitely.

it’s a very cheap hobby, as the big three (Godot, Unity, and Unreal) all are free to use (the latter two have commercial costs, but godot is open-source), so I love it for that too! :) There’s no equipment needed either, I even have godot installed on my phone because I can! :)

I’m a unity dev, so that’s my wheelhouse. Unity offer handy lessons to help you pick up how things work, but both godot and unity are okay once you overcome “whoah lots of things! send help!”. I’ve not used unreal, but I gather the building-block scripting “blueprints” is easy enough. :)

Whatever you choose to get up to, hope you have fun!

That’s awesome! :) Did you land on a favourite for day-to-day stuff? I had the exact same pipeline - windows 11 was announced, and Mint went on days later! :) I love Kubuntu at the moment, and tried PopOS as well. :)

During winter no less! :/

THANK YOU IT WAS A LARGE SLEEP DREAMING BIG

THIS IS SCARY I AM GOING TO GO TO SLEEP NOW THANK YOU GOODNIGHT NOW

Aw me too :( coming to terms with the same feeling I think ♥️ glad you found something cool to do in its place.

Me too, it’s soda-pressing!

Rather Ripped and Sonic Nurse are both very, very good later albums! :)

It’s less solid, but I also adore some songs on The Eternal (Antenna, What We Know, Walking Blue, and Massage the History)

Usually I manage $40-$67 (£30-£50) in the UK - usually it depends on if I need bonus things that aren’t weekly (cleaning supplies etc) :)

edit: this is for just two people though :)

I see what you did there! :)

Ey! Bunny Suicides in a meme! :) excellent

Love this :)

Heck yeah! Excellent song, with lovely memories of playing burnout 3 and going everywhere with my little 512mb mp3 player)

I am now imagining a happy future where all indie games star Harrison Ford searching for lost treasure in some way…

“play your card… to put this in a museum…craft the arc of the covenant… randomised tombs…”

wait a sec this could be great I’d better write this down and never make it like all the other game ideas! :)

It feels like there’s a pun for this! Best I have is Lionel Ri-chief though?

The teddy bear was really funny to me and I’m not sure why out of everything that was the best bit 😅

Ooh I can help maybe! :) Anecdotally, yes, colour can change like that, and it can go back to how it was before.

I started SSRI medication 10ish years back and it felt like everything was in some HD technicolour. :) It honestly was overwhelming. I get spells where it’s muted again, usually that’s my internal sign for “ooh I’m likely a bit burnt out and should stop”.

Beyond the quick answer though, I hope you’re getting by okay and things pick up in some way ♥️

Pleased to meat you
