Man, fuck Zed Shaw; you want a true hardcore way to learn Ruby, you gotta read Why’s (Poignant) guide to Ruby: No, I didn’t make this up. & for some reason, somebody linked this as a recommended guide on the official Ruby documentation. The mo’ I learn ’bout Ruby, the mo’ frightened I become.
I can’t believe I forgot to write ’bout Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak for my GBA tribute. Now’s the perfect time. Long before that there My Li’l Pony: Friendship is Fatalities1 & those there bronies, Hamtaro was the emasculating franchise for a younger me2, who was ne’er that masculine, anyway. Back when everyone else was bitching ’bout […]
‘Cept I hardly changed the actual code. What I have done is finally figure out how to sort o’ get Git working, & now have Boskeopolis Land‘s source code on GitHub, so the whole world can see how li’l I know what I’m doing. I’ve probably been spending mo’ time updating my dumb Wario Land […]
It’s been a trend ever since I worked full-time as a book acquisitions editor: Blog-to-book deals. I acquired or oversaw the publication of more than a dozen bloggers-turned-book-authors. Sometimes it translated into book sales, sometimes not. Speaking o’ trends, it’s a habit o’ business-oriented (¡eww!) writers to tuck self-promotion into opening paragraphs o’ articles any […]
& now there’s a video for “Golden Gear Solid”: I’ve starkly changed the graphics. For the longest time I couldn’t decide what kind o’ theme I wanted this level to have. @ 1 point I came up with this background made up o’ a bunch o’ Tetris-shaped blocks, but then I came up with the […]
& now I have a video for “Bough Down”: I spruced up the graphics, including finally drawing the rope, giving the Pufferbees animation, & adding dark firs in the background. I wanted to do the last 1 to make the background feel a li’l less empty; but now I worry that the graphics may look […]
Here’s “Rooftop Rumble”: I should point out that “Dagny” moves faster than Autumn, but her jumps are much weaker. As you can see, the trick to beating her is exploiting Autumn’s superior jumping abilities. I also realized I’ve been forgetting to add the source code for the last few updates, so here: Download Boskeopolis Land […]
I hate food. I hate its muddy aftertaste that prods @ my attention hours afterward, & I hate my bitchy belly folding into itself for it. Food is needy & ne’er satisfied: it demands to be heated @ a precise length o’ time —not too short, not too long— but cools much too quickly. Fuck […]
It’s been a while since I talked ’bout the li’l game-development project, which, believe it or not, I am still working on. For example, I just spent the days trying to fix the mess I caused by stupidly refactoring my inventory code. In fact, I just fiddled the whole day learning how to parse JSON […]
Un día kamino por la kalle. Fue una mentira– Nunka kamino por la kaye. ¿Ké tipo de persona loka kamina en el sentro de la kalle? En realidad, kamino por la asera, pero prefiero desir ke kamino por la kalle, porke me siento más jugoso, y me gusta jugoso. Bueno, mientras estoy kaminando por la […]
