@narada @Matty Real talk, if the elites real do plan on depopulation they will first kill off anyone who isn't willing to play their stupid games. They want a world populated only by those who are most useful to them and that definitely does not include us.

@PurpCat @Kerosene @ChristiJunior @DocScranton Hasn't Friendship is Magic already ended and is now replaced with some Cal-Arts cartoon? I bet most of the remaining bronies would've moved on because they only ever cared about FIM and it's artstyle. The previous incarnations of MLP are fucking ugly compared to FIM.

@mac_ack @NEETzsche Governments can never bankrupt themselves thanks to central banking.

@NEETzsche @narada @Matty Another shutdown would mean that more small businesses will permanently close their doors.

@jeffcliff @ceo_of_monoeye_dating I bet you also think it was just a coincidence that people were doing terrorist attack exercises months before 9/11.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO PAY ATTENTION AND READ THIS!!!

The WEF is holding yet another table-top exercise for a "hypothetical" pandemic. This one claims to be 20x more fatal than COVID (whatever that means).

Remember that the WEF, Gates Foundation, and John Hopkins foundation participated in a similar exercise mere weeks before the first COVID outbreak. They are planning this shit well in advanced.

Share this as far and wide as possible! They might second guess doing this if more people are aware. Just imagine if more people were aware of the Event 201 exercises when the first COVID outbreak happened.

Please boost this post.

I tried my hand at a more traditional roguelike dungeon generator using this algorithm (roguebasin.com/index.php/Dunge). The results were more cave-like than I expected. It only uses rooms and corridors, but it doesn't really place them logically, only if it is right next to a wall.

I should try BSP dungeon generation next. It should give more "dungeon-like" maps.

@binkle It's not about the amount of free time you have it's about how you spend it.

Don’t bother checking the news regularly. Just take a screenshot of this toot and glance at it every once in a while.

@Kerosene I wouldn't have a procedurally generated overworld unless it's a sandbox game or a 4X game. I do plan on making a Zelda-like game with roguelike elements though, but only the dungeons will be randomly generated.

@Kerosene Thanks, but if I implement it in an actual game, people will accuse me of being too lazy to write levels (a common response I see with the trend of including roguelike elements in games).

Decided to do more practice with procedural generation. For years I always put it off thinking it was too tough to make a dungeon generation algorithm, but then I decided that I could start of by creating Zelda-like dungeons given that the first Zelda game had dungeons using premade rooms that fit on a grid.

I wrote a simple dungeon generator in Java and here are the results. The generator does have a bias for L shaped dungeons though.

@icedquinn I can't believe that Notch is wasting his time on a simple number generator.

what do you bet they don't release all those games drm-free like they said they would do if steam were to shut down for some reason :blobcatanime:

@coolboymew NewGrounds now lets you upload a .zip file containing an index.html, which it displays in an iframe.

I would copy that format. My product name for it is an "Experience".

A "Submission" is a full page dedicated to an Experience, but Experiences could also be embedded in posts or displayed elsewhere.

It's still a rough idea.

There's another idea I have. It relates to archive.org

archive.org is an advanced file viewer that lets you preview nearly any type of file in the browser. An Experience is really just a file format, so it could render those, but it could also render things like GameBoy ROMs, 3D models, Animal Crossing pattern files, and other rare formats.

The end product is something between NewGrounds and Archive.org. It's built on Nostr, but it maybe also has IPFS capabilities because it seems like it should.

And if you look at NeoCities for inspiration, they've done a good job attracting a youth audience and they teach people how to code. Capturing that audience would be key.

@TylerAbeoJordan@liberdon.com Nice try, FBI.

the whole reason the federation model always fails is because it gets in the way of sensitive peoples feelings

I should write that System76 review already.
