"I hate when dictionary definitions are just an unhelpful, vague reference to another word."
Added power-ups to change the current gun state.

Finally got text to render in the HUD.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a main menu.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a pause state as well. This is the first time I'm using an object-oriented state machine instead of a switch statement. Something that has been long overdue.

Moved the main menu to a more logical position. Also added a "continue" option, even though it does nothing right now.

I've added coins that are dropped by the enemies upon death, even though they don't do anything. I thought about having shops in the levels and have the player buy power-ups like in Kid Icarus or Alex Kidd.
Let me know if you like the idea or not.

Added a pause menu.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a new enemy that just moves up and down.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a giant "Paused' text to the pause menu.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a shop to the levels.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a new bullet type. This one is just like the standard bullet, but has a longer range.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a gameover screen.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added the Ioncom logo splash screen. Since I'm using an object-oriented state machine, it makes it much easier and cleaner to touch up the logo splash screen by having it animated. It's just a wipe-appear animation, but it's a lot better than just showing the studio logo.
I should probably add some sort of Ioncom-trademarked jingle to it, but I don't know anyone who could write such a jingle.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added a "Level Start" screen in-between each level.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Added an error sound to the menu options.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Coins now have their own sound when collected.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Saving and loading has now been implemented.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Bullets now have their unique textures.
#gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indie #SDL #cplusplus
Enemies now flash red when hit.

Working on my first boss. It's incomplete, but the pattern is basically done.

HTTP remotes will redirect automatically.
When email notifications and Checkpoint anti-spam are restored, we will test public registrations for the first time to see if it is viable. Rest assured that genuine accounts made during this period will not be deleted in the future if we walk back on this idea.
The design of X that made it unperformant was a product of its time on dumb terminals, and so is the UHH. X implementations have already solved this.
It turns out that the localization of Ys Book I & II is probably the first example of Japanese game developers taking direct feedback from westerners as Falcom actually had access to CompuServe and listened to the opinions and tastes of western gamers.
And this was all back in the late 80s, no less.
This is what the GNU/Linux desktop was always meant to look like. This is what GNOME and Wayland took away from us.
The pioneers pre-IBM PC takeover were almost all using X servers, particularly multi-user mainframes.
Something else funny is how radicalized Bluesky users get. At least on Twitter you can smash like and "not interested" enough time and get some esoteric VINTAGE RETRO AESTHETICS and furry art on your TL.
On Bluesky, you can mark you're interested in that and get pumped 20+ posts about Trump, Elon Musk, the latest thing in the 15 minute news cycle, here's a bad thing, before getting to the meat and potatoes.
Despite all of the RedHat bribing. And the lobotomization of their users.
Nobody wants to use Windows.
Suddenly, they are listening because the negative press is hurting their control over the industry. They will go right back to abusing their users once they get what they want. Don't give it to them.

In other news, I just realized my only PC floppy drive is destroying disks. Fun! It's not like I bought it solely to make backups or anything.
The government does not give a fuck about you. None of them do. We built a system specifically to not trust the government.
The problem with that system is that we keep allowing said government to find loopholes within it that allow it to make whatever tyrannical rules it fucking wants without repercussions or revolt.
When it doesn't work (EARN IT Act), they just keep trying again (ID verification) and each plot will be attempted for years at a time. The feds are playing a war of attrition and are betting on you being forgetful. The communications decency act, the patriot act, TSA, and everything since then. That time they let Microsoft off the hook because their monopoly was too useful.
Nobody could have predicted 300 years ago that we would invent a system to instantaneously transmit vast amounts of information across tens of thousands of miles, and that it would become the backbone of political stability as it dictates everything people perceive to be real. We are more "aware" of our surroundings than ever,and yet simultaneously the least involved in their evolution than we've ever been.
The ID verification laws. We all knew, but now it's been confirmed: the US and Canadian governments are tying your device fingerprints to your financial and social security records to build a unified profile of your identity online on every major website that has that matching information. They are scanning you against a list of politically relevant people for undisclosed purposes.
This is not something Americans do. This is not what we stand for. Self host your online infrastructure. Encrypt and obfuscate fucking everything. This is the last chance you might ever get.
In the highly unlikely event I strike one too many nerves and alert the nearest glowie: I am mentally sane. I have no desire to kill myself and infact I have a very important purpose in life. I am not planning any surprise vacations. I do not take or distribute drugs, keep illicit material on my computer, or fail to pay my bills. I am a healthy, law abiding citizen, and in the event of my disappearance or death you should be very worried because they will probably come after you too.
I'm not anonymous. Real world violence and detainment is how they take your free speech away. Don't forget it.
I just had a daydream and realized that the next step in pushing digital ID is to use them as an alternative to captchas.
