Still looking for more alpha testers for KERO, my 2D game framework for Rust! It's like MonoGame or LÖVE, but in Rust!
If you're new to Rust or experienced, anyone is welcome, I think coding games is a cool way to learn a language.

A quote from the article "The Unique Concerns of Lifetime Game Projects" by Tanya X. Short: Most game developers aren’t in the business of lifetime game projects. But in case you are one of those few, or just curious about the constraints, I thought I’d share a few lessons and observations Kitfox has encountered from our work with Dwarf Fortress, and to a lesser extent, Caves of Qud and Streets of Fortuna.

Thinking that "avoid pre optimization" works well when followed by "avoid generalization"
A great reason to write your own thing is that libs usually need to cover a big surface of use cases.
Just writing the couple of features you need is likely to be more performant by default.
Repeat yourself. Like daily. Don’t copy paste. You’ll discover how to improve stuff just by the mere act of repetition.
Working in my own IMGUI lib for my game cause when you only need to cover like a 5% of use cases, they suddenly aren’t that hard to make

I swear LLMs are poisoning us faster than Lead did with the Roman empire.
seeing someone using genAI art has the same effect on me as seeing someone wearing a MAGA cap, just full-body reeling away in disgust. they don't need to say a word, their values and soul have been made plain to me.
