It amazes me that the literal government of European governments funded a game about punk anarchists.

Okay. After this game is complete, I'm not doing any procedural generation for the foreseeable future. It just adds too much complexity, which is why my dungeon crawler only has a sword for a weapon. I wanted bombable walls like Zelda but I didn't know how to implement Metroidvania-like elements in a randomly generated map.

I only made the maps randomly generated because I grew some weird obsession with procedural generation. It was like making the computer dream, but as we all know dreams don't always make sense, so you end up having levels that don't make sense unless you have a really complex algorithm.

I love how even after a year and a half and connecting to every relay under the sun, I'm apparently still the only gamedev on Nostr besides a couple of people literally employed at Unity of all places.

I know a lot of people here hate the Nostr protocol, but I do like some of the advantages because I really think the whole fediblock culture is the Fediverse's fundamental flaw and that thing is virtually non-existent on Nostr. As long as you are conntected to at least one node that someone else is connected to, you can't talk to them. People have to judge users on an individual basis and not just block entire instances over bullshit drama.

But alas, even after some time, most people there have little interest in discussing anything other than Bitcoin. Even the user groups I lurked seem inactive. And no, I don't think the crypto integration is the problem here. I even lurked actual blockchain based social networks like Bastyon and even they are willing to talk about other things.
