One of the biggest problems with the internet, especially culturally, is the rise of the monoculture. It seems as if every weird internet community has been assimilated into one singular monoculture. Every group, every person, is the same exact individual with a different number. It doesn't matter where you go, everyone is the same and has the same interests.

Welcome to the monoculture era of the […]

What would you do differently this time around if another pandemic was declared?

Nobody has purchased my game yet. I guess that's either because I didn't include screenshots (until now) or my game is currently Linux exclusive.

Nearly 20 years old, LEGO NXT is now running #MicroPython! 😀

LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 (2013) is still the first priority, but we're pulling along NXT (2006) as we go. Much of it is is already working.

Thanks @schodet @danderson and many others.

IT'S FINALLY OUT!!!

My first commercial game and my first game under the Ioncom brand. It's an action, roguelite, dungeon-crawler with limited lives and permadeath.

It's currently Linux exclusive, but the source code is available and you should be able to compile it for anything that SFML runs on.

What's next? Do I also need to disclose if any animals were harm during the production of my game?

Fuck it. I'm going to release my game as a Linux exclusive (for the time being). Source code will still be available and you might be able to run the game under WSFL.

I'm just way too busy at the moment (helping a family member) and I could really use some extra pocket change right now. I just need to create a README and I think we are good to go.
