Heading into my first training session as an axe throwing instructor. This will either be great or I'll lose all my digits....

Spent all day revamping my website and making sure I was happy enough with it across a few screen sizes. I want to change it up further but I'm much happier with how it looks now.

Also I added a basic particle system to my #shmup tutorial game in #pico8 using tables inside tables. I'll post some gifs tomorrow.

If any #AnimalCrossing New Horizons players need a #vscodium logo for some reason you can now find one under Design ID: MO-8LS1-06QC-QXBY
in the design portal at the Label Sisters store.

Little-face, reclining beside me yesterday evening.

Good luck future me 💾

#refactoring code with @krystman for the #Porklike tutorial is so interesting.

Squeezing tokens out of little tweaks here and there really illustrates how writing code and streamlining it can be two totally seperate activities.

At this rate I'll actually finish the project!

Could #workspacewednesday become a thing? This is my current IDE setup for #VSCodium. I'm using a transparency extension and the dark high contrast theme. If anyone is interested I might throw up a photo of my desk as well... (It's too small and badly organised)

How about your workspace? Where do you do your things?

I need to tweak the position of the exhaust behind the ship when banking but I'm happy with yesterday's progress! #Porklike #shmup
#pico8 #pixelart #lazydevs #learning

I start training for my new part time job as an #axethrowing instructor on Saturday. In between sessions I get free use of the axe throwing facilities.

I'd never thrown an axe before in my life a week go. I'm pretty jazzed about this.

There's also a possibility of a Monday to Friday cloud support role. DevOps and Linux training for the first 2 months and then 40 hours doing that, throwing axes on weekends. I might become a coder yet!

Spent the day implementing better fog in #Porklike with @krystman over in the #pico8 tutorial on the #lazydevs YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/c/LazyDevs

If you're interested in game development this is a fantastic way to build a complete project and learn a whole lot while doing it!

Yay! It's #gamedev day. After a weekend of #webdev and setting up a million bits of software/accounts etc I get to bury my head into #Pico8 again.

#Cats make me happier. This cat in particular makes me happy. She is a true friend, she respects our space and we respect her personal space when she visits. I love this cat. She is a #person and I'm glad I know her.
