After 2 years of work, I made an FPS where if you stop moving, you lose! - STOP DEAD (www.youtube.com)

Hey all, I hope you will forgive me this small bit of self-promo.
I got my start with gamedev while in college ~5 years ago, just messing around with friends. Taught myself with tutorials from the community, youtube, etc. Eventually, I started my own youtube channel where I started covering different things in Unreal with a focus on speed and wit. Supported myself with freelancing during this time - until I lucked out with this game idea.
... then 2 years disappeared in the blink of an eye and when I came to, a friend of mine and I had made this with the help of my co-developer Mike!
Stop Dead is out in early access right now, and we will be developing it into a full release over the coming months!

Why is my Lemmy experience feeling so lame? **UPDATE** by Xylarthen in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I had the same issue with Lemmy, so I use Kbin more these days because it seems to be better at getting interesting posts I haven't seen before. I'm sure the Lemmy devs will get to it though.

YSK: Pixelfed replaced Instagram for me, the same way Lemmy replaced reddit. by Xylarthen in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

They're adding support to sign up to pixelfed with your mastodon account as well. Pretty neat.

Should we be more enthusiastically asking questions to build content on here? by Xylarthen in c/AskKbin@kbin.social

Yes.

New rule I have adopted - going forward, any time I struggle to find good search results on something and find myself wanting to append "reddit" onto the query, I will instead be creating the thread on an applicable forum on a federated site. I recommend others do the same.

It may not give me the immediate answer I'm looking for, but with a bit of patience we can hopefully rebuild a library of knowledge in a more stable way, not vulnerable to the whims of corporate profit.

Apps saying goodbye to Reddit and immediately becoming fediverse apps instead by Xylarthen in c/196

Really excited about Infinity for Everything! I used Infinity for Reddit and it was hands-down my favorite app. Looks like the Everything version is still pretty early. Will be watching it closely.
