Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine
Making Penguin Festival's VR gameplay trailer was really challenging, but also fun and rewarding. Here's a little postmortem for my own posterity but also in case anyone else finds it helpful!

image demonstrating rules about axes, handedness, and direction of rotation in 3D space, where you can use your thumb as the axis, and the curl of your fingers as the positive rotation direction
handedness can be a little hard to wrap your head around - it's a very elusive concept as it's mostly perceptual/visual rather than being a property of the numbers/math itself
notably though, you can use it to figure out positive rotation directions, given an arbitrary axis!

"AI" isn't about finding God in Reddit posts (that kind of absurd storytelling is OpenAI's core product though). It's about putting pressure on labor, on wages, on workers.
About putting pressure on _you_.
Amazingly versatile ...
Godot 4.4 will be about...
In-game editing
Typed dictionaries
Metal rendering
3D physics interpolation
LOTS of optimization (memory, speed, editor...)
LOTS of bugfixes (editor, rendering, memory...)
So much that a single post can't hold it all! 😱

PSA: be careful where you are downloading Godot from, it looks like a hacked version with malware is being distributed and infecting machines.

Excellent analysis of the fake outrage around #StellarBlade (and the failed attempt to initiate a gamergate moment) by @shaunvids.bsky.social. Some lessons to be learned about engaging in online gaming discourse.
I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong
Souls games: frustration isn’t the enemy but the path. Every failure sharpens resolve, every defeat whispers resilience ...
Seit Release relativiert »Hearts of Iron IV« NS-Unrecht durch Auslassen. Ein Umstand, den etwa die Junge Alternative für Gaming-Veranstaltungen nutzt. Mit dem neuen DLC »Götterdämmerung« verschärft sich das Problem nochmals. Kudos an @steinwallen.bsky.social für die klare und fundierte Grenzziehung!
I was actually wondering about this for quite some time ... but never bothered to look it up. Glad I found your Tip #3
... will be recorded! thx
2 hrs to go if you are submitting an abstract ... Resonance and Games, intriguing (or should I say 'transformative') combination and I am looking forward to the publication when done (end of 2025 approximately)
And the 'Still playing Award' goes to .... #Minecraft 😻 second year in a row
