How do you get rid of the corn on your foot? Just turn it into popcorn, duh.
We're working on a VR game where you have to clean a giant talking foot. It's called Ashi Wash and I finally have some gifs to start sharing!

I present to you the Wile E Coyote solution to first-person platforming: as long as you do not look down, you can walk out as far as you like over a ledge without suffering the effects of gravity
How was everyone's morning? Mine involved fire and microphones at the same time.

Integrated my CRT emulation shader into dosbox. Source code is here:

If you give it ago, make sure to configure it to run in fullscreen and OpenGL, or it won't work/look good. https://mastodon.gamedev.place/media/rGRVd3QoJkOAob_k_Vw https://mastodon.gamedev.place/media/FgDYYcSPbiNZDxpS_w4 https://mastodon.gamedev.place/media/TQoHieEZIBaLW78js0E
[taps mic] now would be a good time to announce that I'm working on a list of Games With LGBTQ Characters Releasing in 2018 for @JStationX!
If you're making a game that fits that description please @ me! I cannot guarantee that your game will be featured but I would love to hear about it :)
I need to make a rhino sound. Hmm... What does a rhino even sound like in real life?
*watches clips of rhinos on Youtube*
Well that's not definitely not going to work. 🙃

If you require a "proven track record" of successful work, you are not hiring an intern, even if that's the job title.
AT LONG LAST...
My article about fixing the #ue4 network clock is finally live: https://medium.com/@invicticide/accurately-syncing-unreals-network-clock-87a3f9262594
I also submitted a PR to apply this as an engine-level fix: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/pull/4418
Buying used > buying local > buying from anywhere but Walmart or Amazon > buying from Walmart or Amazon
I want to wean myself off of Amazon, or at least use it significantly less. Where do you shop besides Amazon?

Hey folks!
I'm looking for someone to make some music for my little painting game. So if you're available, or maybe know someone that is, just let me know.
Naturally I would pay you for your work.
I would also really prefer to work with someone who isn't a straight, white (cis) dude.
Today is the twelfth and final day of Christmas, y'all.
RT @FredBouchery@twitter.com: Client: I want you to develop this application
Dev: Give me 2 weeks
Client: No, I want this for tomorrow.
Dev: Okay, you decide... about the result.
I've been involved as a sound designer on several other games and sometimes I've been present at their public showings, but this is the first game I've shown in a real-life public space where I have part ownership and major creative input outside of audio. Thus the *my* and my general excitement about it.
