Oh, that actually worked. Wtf? I didn't even know my pc had a handle

Shouldn't there be something like Fn + F4 to toggle display modes?

So on easter sunday, I fell on a slippery nightclub floor and tore my lcl.

I've been in a leg splint for over a week and today I had to have some scans at the "trauma and deformity" clinic.

The name gave me a reason to laugh at least.

I don't know if anyone watches sex education on netflix (I don't) but I hung out with the guy who plays Eric in it and it was so strange being stopped for autographs and photos constantly.

Even weirder because I didn't know how big of a hit this show was - I still haven't gotten round to watching it but yeah the actor is super chill, funny and really lively too.

 

Also heading to Berlin for a weekend soon so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated (I don't log in here often enough to check replies to my posts but if I do, then thanks in advance lol)

How did node 12 break so much shit lmao

oh no no nono n

Mirror puzzles.



I don't know how many people here did the quest Mourning's End Part 2 in RuneScape but mirror puzzles are going to be a big thing in my game. They power the Old One Prisium's terrible machines.

 

The initial puzzles will just involve getting a specific beam to a specific receiver, the more advanced puzzles will involve refracting light, creating multiple beams, etc. OooOoooOooh.

That's looking really good. I'm sure there's a lot you can add on past MEP2...now you just need to make sure they don't give up!

@Vieva pls make sure the puzzles stay colorblind accessible. As someone whos colorblind I run into a shockingly high amount of games who do color challenges

In the advanced settings there's going to be a way to specify color blindness when it comes to that. I'll have you covered.

 

I want my game to be very accessible. Feedback on how to improve for disabilities is always welcome. (This is aimed at anyone who plays not you in particular.)

 

re: puzzles, yes, there's not going to be anything like that. Extra gimmicks would be monsters that walk around and block the light, timed lights, etc. But the general idea is the same: direct light into a receiver.

I often forget that colorblindness is a thing, but then my co worker will remark how green his peanut butter looks and it all comes back to me

Game Maker's Toolkit recently did a neat series on accessibility in games, not sure how useful the info is, but it's a great YT channel that I'd recommend regardless.

I'm assuming the color puzzles are just cmy + rgb like in MEP2, right? Which should be accessible to color blind people, especially if you can examine (or whatever the equivalent is in your game) the beams

.

There will be an examine for colored beams if color is necessary puzzle element.

 

The examine feature works just like in RuneScape. That's something I loved about RuneScape--the witty examines. I pull a Dark Souls sometimes too and give an interesting examine for important objects/items.

Also check out the crab puzzle in 2007scape raids. Might be a good way to ease players into the color puzzles

ey guys my tiny ecuadorian hermit crab finally came up from a 2 month molt. thats not super long for hermit crabs, but hes so small it is ab it long soi iwas getttgnng wrorrid

.

May the fourth be with you...and I wonder how long until it'll be a bigger deal than July 4th...

I don't subscribe to that rebel dirt

like a subcribe

good game

My dean contacted the dean over at Georgia Tech (my #1 school choice) because I'm missing a few pre-reqs for the major (Computer Science). None of the relevant classes at my school transfer so there's no point in my taking them anyway. I'm an excellent student so I'm hoping they can make an exception or whatever.

 

This is the list of things I sent my dean that I've done, I don't know how many she mentioned when emailing the dean at Georgia Tech:

• Made apprenticeship website for Funeral Services Department, working on similar website for Cosmetology Department
• Can provide letter of recommendation from chairman of the computer department & dean of public services
• 3-month software development internship turned into current job as a software developer at Immersion Media
• Provided computer programming tutoring during summer semesters
• Working on starting business developing entertainment applications, should launch within next 3-4 months
• Contributes to open source projects such as Allegro, Egoboo, and LOVE
• 4.0 GPA

That stuff on top of the obstacles I've overcome would be like candy to admissions if it weren't for the fact I'm missing some pre-reqs...

 

Worse comes to worst I'll just go to the local university for a year and fill in the missing classes then transfer. (You need 30 credit hours at your current institution to transfer). But I'd rather not...

Texts from Mom: "[Deadname], go to the doctor. You have a heart murmur."

I don't respond, because I can't think of a nice way to say "you don't know what you're talking about, and it's incredibly insulting to use my deadname while you're texting me and have time to think about what you're writing"

Mom a week later: "I'm feeling ignored!!!"

Finally, my room no longer looks like a kid's room. I moved up to a full size bed, got or repurposed furniture to match, printed and framed some of my artwork, and cleaned up some crap.

This genuinely makes me pretty happy.

So I get why getting called by your chosen name is important to you. The reason why your mom isn't in a hurry to call you it is because your request sounds like:

Mom I told you to call me Malgoroth the champion of the forgotten realms. I don't respond to my slave name. 

I get she should understand and call you that out of respect for your identity but she doesn't understand and you'll have to find another approach to get her to understand it.

 

I know. It's just so incredibly not fun to live through the intervening time, especially without a guarantee of a light at the other end.

 

Also why does your mom think you have a heart murmur?

Hell if I know.
