Cautiously optimistic. I still could never get into VI. Maybe I'm too used to IV and V.

Edit: showcase has started.

Nintendo Museum Direct :!marseysoyswitch:

Nintendo are opening a museum in Kyoto dedicated to their own history. From what they've shown the exhibits don't seem all that interesting, unfortunately, but they still have some interactive attractions that look like quirky fun.

Godot 4.3 is out :marseycortana:

(This is old-ish news, Godot 4.3 came out last Thursday)

Godot Engine, the big-ticket open source project from sunny Argentina:marseyflagargentina: just released Version 4.3, which mainly contains fixes and improvements to current systems. Some changes include:

>:marseyjamming: Some new AudioStreamPlayer resources. These are mainly focused around interactive music, which was doable before with the preexisting audio system, but is made significantly easier with the new stuff

>:marseysphericalcow: 2D physics interpolation. This is a feature that was lost in the transition from 3.5 to 4.0, and was one of the reasons some devs stuck with 3.5 when making games for lower-end devices. It's back now, and is one of the changes this update that should make developing for low-end devices a bit smoother.

>:marseystrut: built-in ufbx importer, so importing 3D files is easier

>:marseycrystal: built-in Direct3D 12. This became possible due to a previously proprietary component of D3D12 getting open-sourced by Microsoft, allowing the Godot devs to directly include it inside the engine

>:flash: Single-threaded web exports. This was on the table for a while, taking a long time because of an audio quality issue.

>:marseypdf: File system can be moved to the bottom of the screen, which is how other game engines usually do it. Also allows you to see file icons a lot easier.

>:box: TileMap system has been reworked, with TileMap layers now each being a separate node instead of all contained in one mega-node. This should make them a whole lot less finnicky to work with

>:parrotcongaparty: Parallax system has been re-reworked, with everything now being in a single Parallax2D node and simpler to use

>:marseyplace2: Fixed a bug where if two pixelated objects collide with each other, there was sometimes a one-pixel gap between them in rendering

>:capyhacker: built-in compression for GDScript files

>:marseyglow: Compatibility Renderer is now at feature parity with the other two renderers, enabling stuff like glow

>:marseybsod: Compositor hooks, which allows you to fiddle with the rendering pipeline

>:marseypenguin: Wayland support for Linux (experimental)

Not sure what to expect from this, probably just a continuation of current trends. More people moving to it or trying it out for the first time, a few more indie studios switching to it, more Unity:marseyisrael: users sneeding, and more Gen Xers in their midlife crises starting gamedev YouTube channels and trying to make their ultra-realistic MMORPG dream games.

Lastly, to all fellow Chuds, gamedev is an awesome creative hobby and there's never been a better time to get your feet wet with it

Game to Discuss?

This week, let's discuss Fortnite. Despite being a :marseyzoomerimplosion:, I've played this game exactly twice, once when they had the no building mode. I honestly don't get the hype this game got, though it seems to have died down now. Why did this game end up at the top of the BR totem pole? It will baffle me forever. Anyways, discuss below, and vote in the pinned comment. Also, if you want to have something run, I do take suggestions on games to put up for the weekly discussion, with the caveat that you'll need to write the blurb for it if I haven't played it.

Future game discussions:

August 25: Devil Daggers

September 1: Hollow Knight

September 8: Street Fighter IV

September 15: The Witcher :marseygeralt:

The Last of Us Part II is fricking dumb.

I am extremely late to the Last of Us. I literally finished playing the first part about a week ago for the first time and started on the second one just a few days ago.

:marseyliathomas: is seriously fricking stupid, and I don't just think that because she tortures and beats Joel to death with a golf club. I mean this character is the epitome of r-slurred wokeification. For one, her body type is simply impossible without roids. Even medieval German milkmaids of husky stock would not be able to achieve the physique of Abby without significant help from drugs, so it makes no sense that Abby is able to be this ripped in the apocalypse without the protein and roids necessary to get there. ON TOP OF THAT she is butt fricking ugly and is based off of this foid:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17239357376823637.webp

And according to random reddit posts the above ugly foid blew some lead development guy to get placed in the game? I don't know the validity of that situation but it is the most drama inducing situation so I'm going to say it's 100% fact. This game is awful simply because you have to look at her ugly fat butt the entire time.

Space Station 14. The belated remake to a shitty atmospheric simulator built on a psuedo-robloxian engine back in the nineties.

Since 2019, a swedish man known online as PJB, or Pieter-Jan Briers has been the frontman of the Netrunning Taskforce in charge of building this virtual experience.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17238716896399102.webp

At his right hand side is DrSmugleaf(

), loli hentai enthusiast with a F-List covering, much, much more of his interesting preferences, and on his left is Jezithyr "Jesse Rogeau", trans-identified nonbinary furry with a linkedinpage detailing his work on Microsoft's hit game, Minecraft: Adventure Mode: Dungeons, as well as some other minor releases. Together they form the "Space Wizard's Federation" who loom over the fabled 'Mainline Codebase'. However, this peaceful stewardship has met many hardships ; certain rabble-rousers in the community, fellow coders of lesser pedigrees have expressed distate with their dominance of the game's online backbone, and their Twenty-First century moralizing about Ukraine and Gender Ideology, namely because all the loading screen tips as of the time of the post tend to be about freeing palestine and trans rights, rather than anything related to the game proper. In addition, the game's launcher icon has featured the trans pride colour since 2021, or so, and there's very little interest in changing this, even in locales where flashing said colours may incur trouble with law enforcement.

As a result, over issues such as these and gripes with the MIT-license, a great many schisms have broken out, small ones, at first, fronted by server hosts of the name 'Nyanotrasen', who bravely faced the terrible transvestites of the Wizard Federation until they were finally unlisted from their Master Server List, prompting the Creation of Rival, Unofficial Server lists that vow not to censor or wave around the iron fist the Wizards were so fond of. They would call this the 'Multiverse', and its online infrastructure would be based in Russia, acting as an alternative roster of servers for people to try.

They also posted a darning criticism about one of the SWF's (Space Wizard Federation) members, who was spotted on a forum dedicated to pirating 's*x games' that featured minors, as tends to be par for the course in that genre of adult entertainment.

https://spacestationmultiverse.com/criticism-of-wizden/

Furthermore, they began planting 'spies' in various Space Station 14 servers' Groomercord servers themselves, vigilantly watching for any would-be Space Wizard Dissidents, threatening server hosts with delistification should they falter in ridding their communities of these political enemies. All this vigilance led to the game's actual development suffering. To this day a great variety of systems present in its predecessor, Space Station 13 are absent, half-implemented or slated for a refactor that'll never come. And since the Trio of Archwizards have reserved certain systems for their touch only, seeing any progress on these in mainline seems uncertain, such as a long-awaited medical system revamp that would have finally reimplemented targeted damage, and much more.

It got to the point another group of insane Russian :!marseytrain:s got together and created a fork intended to replace and supercede the mainline, slapping an AGPL license on it and adding a few kitsch features. Nowadays they merely port changes from Mainline over to their codebase.

That said, the Space Wizards remain as strong as ever, getting a trailer for their beloved project into the PC Game Awards show this year, behold:

And to this day, the Wizards hack away at their terminals, injecting estrogen for motivation and drinking soy to refuel their bodies, adding half-baked features and unnecessary 'alien' races to appeal to a fervent furry majority they carefully cultivate, deriding the Space Stationeers of old as chuds and male feminists. Let this be a warning to any who would travel the Seven Galaxies...
