For the latest @eggplantshow we spoke with LocalThunk about their poker-breaking pokerlike, Balatro. Come for the generous behind-the-scenes insights into how this game became what it is, stay for the sneaky-important point that if you're going to be making a game you had better be in love with what it means to be making your game https://eggplant.show/136-going-in-blind-with-balatro

Look at these exploded views of the ABC80. Someone put a lot of time into making these service manuals. There's even a PCB with all the little hand-drawn traces.
@selfsame its a real problem

i am cursed to always prefer the way 3d stuff i model looks when wireframe / untextured while being too much of a coward to double down on that as the main aesthetic

/Mars After Midnight/ is available now for Playdate!
It's my usual repetitive isnt-this-just-work bs, only more carefree.
I made it for my kids, who claim to "love it", as is their obligation.
@nasser i would like and subscribe

I'll be doing a video skillshare as part of the @emma coop tomorrow (3/6) at 6PM EST!
I'll be showing how to get PICO-8 games to communicate with JavaScript using a rarely-used but fascinating feature of the virtual console. Allowing information to pass to and from the browser allows Pico8 games to do all sorts of new things.
We'll be streaming it on our YouTube channel, which you can subscribe to right here: https://youtube.com/@emmatechcoop
