gamedev, svgs 

Decided to take some time to play around with Inkscape because I'm terrible at drawing things by hand and I want to stand out from all the pixel-shit indiedevs, though I don't plan on using SVGs for my current project or even the next one. Eventually, I would like to use them for my dream game.

It's actually pretty easy once you get the hang of it. This already looks better than anything I've drawn.

Tip: Stick with solid outlines and solid colors with maybe a bit of shading. Don't go with the whole "gummy" look unless you want your game to look like a mobile game.

The fact that Biden can hold office & even run again in light of his open & obvious dementia & the overwhelming evidence of his illegal influence peddling for decades as a family business demonstrates that our govt is a criminal enterprise run from the shadows.

@BullSchmitt @MelGibsonafter4Beers Meanwhile, statists like you think that the government actually listens to them and that the whole idea of a shadow government is just some crazy conspiracy theory.

@Indigo Go to Goodwills that are near college campuses. That's where the good stuff is. College students will dump anything they deem clutter.

I never thought that there would be a more retarded theory than flat-earth but it seems like mudflood takes the cake.

There's some real potential for medical treatments in underwater pressurized environments, listen to the interview with the doctor who spent 100 days under water and his doctor: buff.ly/3Pe7fVl

SVGs seem to be much easier than hand-drawn, raster graphics while making your game stand out from all the pixel-shit indies out there, but as seen in this tutorial it can end up looking either like a shitty mobile game or that no-corporate artstyle that everyone hates.

I'm considering using SVGs for future projects because I suck at drawing (I have dexterity issues), but I want them to look like old-flash games (think Super Meat Boy, Binding of Isaac, and Alien Hominid) instead of this weird gummy aesthetic. And I have to convert them to PNGs or BMPs since SFML doesn't natively support SVGs.

@beardalaxy @ArdainianRight @GrungeQueef No. He's saying that they aren't zoomers. The cut off year for being a zoomer is 2009 in most regards. People born after that are Generation Alpha.
