And it turns out that there is already an itch.io user with the username "Ioncom". It seems like the person only used it as a username though and never intended to release any games, but it sucks that the username is already taken. Probably should've checked to see if the name was already taken on itch.io before making it my company name.

I could just make my itch.io username "ioncomofficial" or something like that. I'm not changing the name of my company though. I'm too prone to the suck-cost fallacy for that to happen.

This shit right here is what's holding me back on a Windows port of my game. I wrote my game using an older version of SFML (only because Linux repository managers are too lazy to update them). Now, I have to install an outdated version of MinGW and/or Code::Blocks on Windows or compile SFML manually myself.

To add insult to injury, simply upgrading to the latest version of SFML would also be tedious as the latest SFML builds also break compatibility, so there would be some code changes.

I do plan on releasing my game for Windows because it would be stupid not to, but this shit is tedious. I might move away from SFML and just use SDL like a normal human being because of this.

Forgot that this was going on today. It seems like everyone on the other side of the pond is distracted by the fake, Soros-backed protest.

They ruined my favorite wiki and it's not even pride month.

It seems like there is no rock bottom with this guy. Even after having his embarrassing Reddit history exposed and being exposed as the man behind The Stallman Report, he only doubled down. He added all of this (minus the Luigi sprite, which has been there for a while) to his blog's bio section shortly after the Charlie Kirk assassination, and Antifa being declared a terrorist organization, by the way.

Your state has age verification laws.

Literally every fedi gamedev instance.

Knowing him, he probably has some Charlie Kirk sniping game in the works.

Added a background to the prologue.

This is bullshit. If a law is repealed, you can still be arrested for breaking said law if it turns out you broke it when it was still in effect and the statue of limitations haven't expired.

Doors now have outlines. Something that has been long overdue.

The results were more or less what I was expecting. It looks like people are a lot more optimistic about it than a few years ago, judging from the people who voted option 2, 3, and 5.

I don't know. Sometimes, it does feel like it's less likely to happen, that it would be half-assed, or that it will happen but collapse. However, it also feels like they are just going to rebrand it to make it appeal more to conservatives and some libertarians.

There are also some things that I can't see happening in five years. I get that home ownership is declining, but I can't see people not even owning the clothes they wear by 2030, and there is no way you are going to condition people to accept a new social contract that says something like that within five years. Everyone has cherished possessions that they even value over their own friends. You have a better chance at getting Americans to give up their guns.
