OK, that is the last of the iOS/iPadOS bugs fixed for my game demo. Geez, what a pain, but got to the end of it. Now to play test it before releasing for any last-minute weird things I missed. projecthack.net #indegame #indiedev
Over the last year, I have grown tired of the “go there, do that 10 times”. That style of gaming gets old fast for me. World of Warcraft is a classic example. Played since Vanilla, and very little has changed on the quests.
If you make apps or services, do you have an onboarding system for your users, especially the new ones? I have some thoughts and tips in this Podcast episode: share.transistor.fm/s/b8c5b5c… First run experience is crucial in this short attention span World we live in.
Just such a beautiful version of Little Wing by Mr. Vaughan open.spotify.com/track/0UV…
Out that’s a new one Error 503 Backend is unhealthy Backend is unhealthy Error 54113 mastodon.social having a bad day?
I have never played a Fallout game. I’m about to fix that by trying Fallout: New Vegas. So maybe I can finally appreciate why so many think it’s all that.
Making games in public is so much more fun. Thanks to the folks that dropped by the live stream as I work on my #unity Idle game. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1755821196
Hey game makers, stop with the 15-minute non-interactive, non-skippable prologues for your game where you want to ego trip showing us the world you made. I’m looking at you, Atomic Heart. I quit your game before it even started. You are just an FPS, not a movie.
Oh, it has been a long week! But finally, I’m starting to get a chance to relax and not ship a product. Here’s a new episode of the UIBuzz Podcast https://share.transistor.fm/s/90c06ccd
I have released a new Podcast episode where I take you on a journey of magical game code that changes overnight to ruin your day. But it does have a happy ending I promise, peterwitham.com/podcasts/…
Does this ever happen to you? Everything runs fine in Unity one day. You close it, open it again and now your code is not running how it should? Yep that’s my day.
OK this weekend I’m all about trying to figure out why my Unity game and Easy Save 3 are not happy trying to run on the iPad and iPhone. It runs flawless on Android. Wish me luck!
A quick tip for anyone building games on Unity that needs to save game data when Android kills the app. Be sure to override onSaveInstance()
It seems that macOS is getting to be like Windows in that I have to now entertain doing a fresh install every few months to keep things running smoothly. Hey Apple, it’s OK to not copy bad things from other people. Snow Leopard for the win!
I have been having fun streaming some gaming again, hoping to get some more done this weekend. Even if they are just short streams, it’s a lot of fun to share my good and bad choices when it comes to rushing into groups of hoodlums LOL
Completed the main story of CyberPunk 2077, good length but I feel the ending (based on my choices) was a little rushed and almost disappointing. Other than that, I totally enjoyed the ride and am now going back to the side missions and open world.
The new podcast episode is in the editing bay, will be released Friday AM. Follow it now to get it automatically and discover my plans and game development updates for 2023. uibuzz.transistor.fm #podcasts #indiedev #gamedev
What are these White flakes of frozen water I see falling from the sky in Texas, must be sugar right? :)
OK it’s that nervous moment you release your new game to the first beta tester that you hope will be kind LOL
Twitter keeps getting weirder, now you have to be careful when it comes to linking out to other social networks. How is that not a form of censorship?
I’m sad to read that Appcode from JetBrains is going away. I have always appreciated it as a Swift code editor option over Xcode. Also glad I chose not to renew my license last month for the toolbox.
OK I have decided to take the plunge and move my projects from Trello to Notion. Now that I am using the Arc browser on Mac it puts Notion right there at a click.
My first time trying the new globally accessible micropost feature in MarsEdit 5 and it will make it so much easier for me to share thoughts with the World in flow. Well done Daniel
At just like that, it’s Christmas manufacturing in Satisfactory again. Bring on the elves’ production line to ship those trees.

I’m finding myself spending more time with analog adventures lately. I’m working on a plan to do my journaling next year in a book rather than software. It puts me in a whole other mindset when I know I cannot edit as it hits the page.
