@RabbiChaimNosenberg Okay. I just ordered an SFML Game Programming Book online. I already know the basic and intermediate concepts of game programming, so switching probably isn't going to be that hard. I already did that once (Python to C#).

IT'S. FUCKING. DONE.
I've finally completed the game. You can download it on my website. It's just a generic shmup. It's nothing special (it was made to practice enemy patterns among other things), but I think I learned a lot working on it.

@RabbiChaimNosenberg I'll consider it. I was planning on doing a dungeon crawler after I publish this vertical shmup. I don't know if I can do it if I switch languages though.

@RabbiChaimNosenberg Never heard of it. I do know some C and C++. I even tried C++ with SFML once but I gave up on it.

@lanodan I thought that was something that you did until I looked at the filename.

@Mr_NutterButter I'm self hosting it on my website. It's not even worth hosting on itch.io.

@RabbiChaimNosenberg I'm on Linux. I program games in C#, but I am a Linux user.

Packaging .NET programs into self-contained applications creates a huge fucking mess.

@beardalaxy It's nothing spectacular or even good. I could probably add more to it but I'm burnt out.

I've gained some knowledge from it and I guess that's all what matters in the end. I just hope I can still balance work and gamedev, but we'll have to see.

I just finished my game. Now, I just need to publish it. Then I have to go back to self-training for my new job.

I still cannot log in without a phone number.

So, I see that as a total fail.

@Hyolobrika @icedquinn @Jain @monorail @alex @ryan @interlinked @ryo Why can't users be allowed to have images from certain instances CWd by default?
