I had a remedial massage yesterday and it undid about 2 years of game development stress. Unfortunately I've been in the industry for nine years, so I'll need a few more sessions.

So what you do is, you just scroll. With your thumb. Yeah, like that. And then your brain lives 8 very stressful lifetimes in the span of 30 minutes. I do it like 10 times a day. I’ve lost the ability to make eye contact with my loved ones.

The Back Rooms movie had very good level design. Also, big fan of the increasing wtf-ery but commitment to a persistent layout.

I reckon game engines should have a mandatory feature where if 4 years after you start a project you are still working on it, it just automatically ships it in whatever state it is in and forces you to move on to something new.

If you ever want to feel like you're underperforming just look up horror games made by solo devs 🥲 There's a lot of impressive stuff being made!
