released a new version of my dinky math problems game, this time adding configuration file support where you can tweak a ton of parameters. https://codeberg.org/knutaf/mathprobs/releases/tag/v0.7.0

@jibsaram this is the basis of everything and just makes me sick reading it. "Software will be built by machines, directed by people. AI is the substrate on which future software gets built."

i got my dinky math problems game's next big iteration done. it has some pretty wave effects and randomly glitching text, because my kid likes glitchy looking stuff. this was basically a rewrite of most of the program, so i plan to write up what i did. code is up here too. https://codeberg.org/knutaf/mathprobs

@noah@mastodon.gamedev.place this is a cool puzzle but I cannot rotate things in my mind or even in real life to save myself, hahaha. You should submit it to thinkygames.com for visibility in their newsletter!

@ashenwave@mastodon.art did you do all the optional boss rush type stuff at the end? The true ending was really cool, how they tied the story in with the mechanics

I get these containers of croissants from Costco. They're freaking good, but if I just leave them out, they start getting stale before we can eat them all. My low tech solution is just put stuff on top of them to keep a slightly better seal. No extra containers to wash, and it easily lasts a week. #lifehack

@lynnesbian so my family watched all the star wars movies within the last 6 months (for my kids, it was the first time). i am SCHEMING about how i get them to watch this version without giving anything away, because i want SO BADLY for them to be more and more "wtf" as it goes on. I think I need to sit on it a year before trying it out, but how do i avoid suspicion when the normal way is just to hit up streaming? oh crap, I think i have it. i'll secretly pihole disney+ for the evening....

i'm rerolling 9 weapons in #monsterhunterwilds . the rolls are predictable, you can quit without saving to undo your exploratory rolls, and rolls for one weapon type also advance the rolls for other weapons. so the more weapons you're rerolling at once, the more you can fill the wasted roll attempts with good rolls on other weapons. i'm gonna burn through all my oricalcite at this rate but i'll have an awesome set of weapons when i'm done.

started off making a dinky little text based game in #rust to quiz my kid on math problems in a fun way. now it's complicated enough that i've got an mpsc::channel, a display thread, and probably enough to write a blog post about all my crossterm wrangling.

side note: companies suck, but i was really impressed with Kohler phone support on this one. i called them, and a real human talked to me. i told them my problem and they were like "get this part number", and it was good info. feel like that doesn't happen much anymore

i called Kohler support to help with finding the parts needed to fix a shower issue i'm having. the mixer cap for my shower is set a bit too deeply in my wall to attach well to the trim, so the woman on the phone kept telling me to get a "debruffing kit", and i'm like wut. what is that?

finally i got her to tell me the part number, and it's this. but i can't unhear debruffing kit.
