I made my first game dev YouTube video about a game I made. youtu.be/RMcrB_NhMSs #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #godot

I'm improving... sqrz.app

#gmtk progress... 🔉 Sound on! Playable here: jsonm.itch.io/sqrz Let me know if you beat my high score.

Taking the time to learn, build, and write yourself, instead of having AI do it for you, is about to become a career hack.

I opened sourced my love2d live coding lsp github.com/jasonjmcghee...

Had much less free time than usual over the last few months so I've been quiet here, but had some time yesterday and put together a radiance cascades ASCII renderer for traditional roguelikes as per a request from a user in the discord. All the code is non-minified etc. jason.today/ascii-dungeon

Sneak peek

I had no idea what was causing this, but life has dramatically improved. You can disable predictive text- it's a keyboard setting on macos. Maybe I'm the only one that didn't know that...

Experimented with "evaluate selected code in-place" and (and undo/redo from the running window). the result is that i can use code (like the mouse position) and evaluate it to place (or re-place) things. If it's too small to see - "placing it" converts the variables to the evaluated numeric form.

what if you could just modify running programs and transparently see all variables both in real time (notice how fast mouse coordinates update when I mouse over) It's lua + LSP based and have tested it successfully in vs code and zed.

Improved jump flood seed creation to play better with fonts and added sky radiance
