I would also consider trackers as being very intuitive in a lot of ways compared to DAWs, coming from the perspective of someone who isn't great at playing midi controllers live. I…

> The point of Haxe seems to be as a meta-compiler to generate code for a bunch of different languages/compilers? That's basically correct, although there is also a cross platform …

I am glad people are working on it!! Have you seen Kha by any chance? It has similar goals. I find it quite awesome, but it won't gain mass adoption for a bunch of reasons. https:/…

There absolutely is a need for a robust cross-platform rendering/multimedia solution, more in a similar vein to SDL than Unity or Unreal. The offering of Unity, Unreal, and perhaps…

I suppose it should be considered where the abstraction actually exists. If the abstraction exists in logic or mathematics (ie. a triangle is a 3 sided polygon) it probably doesn't…

Also, for even things like physics there are many simple ways to do things. Take Towerfall's arcade physics for example[1]. In under 100 lines you can create the basis for your pla…

I have wondered if the UFOs specifically exist in a plane that will always be at the edge of our awareness. They aren't so much moving through physical space, but though our collec…

It just seems to be the same guy going on the podcast circuit talking about the Tic Tacs, and all I see is a video with a black blob in the centre. Have you got any links to back u…

It just opens your json in a publicly accessible page at https://jsonhero.io/

I could see a tool like this being really useful on my web game projects, where I would like artists/animators making contributions.

I don't see anyone mention affiliate links when talking about the indie/old web. Affiliate links were such a crucial element to the early web 'surfing' experience. It's a pretty sh…

Outside of Vue, and maybe Angular, are there any other stable alternatives with a decent ecosystem? I'd love to hop off the React train, but I haven't found anything that compares …

How do you manage the lifecycle of objects with the observer pattern? I saw an example of the pattern below that is crucially missing a 'remove' function to unsubscribe from the su…

This is just iteration on the awesome groundwork that React laid, and shows that things can still be much better. React has some very peculiar patterns that don't really jive well …

I'm not sure it is particularly desirable to clone Flash's vector drawing tools. They were certainly nice to use but also pretty glitchy as you say. Functionality like vector shape…

At its core the beauty of Flash was the extremely tight interplay between vector graphics in nested timelines, and the the programming environment. Many people compare Flash to Uni…

I wish Nintendo would just give us a decent battle mode, with the N64 levels.

Synthstrom Deluge. https://synthstrom.com/product/deluge/ I had an OP-1 for a number of years but I could never progress beyond 2-4 bar loops. When I bought my Deluge I made a full…

For the majority of my React projects I just import a single index.scss file in index.ts, and it has all the imports for my /style folder. It's not much different to the old school…

I'm looking forward to picking up Svelte and just going back OOP for state management. Immutable state with React was a massive eye opener, but right now I think OOP is just better…

This looks look great, thanks for sharing.

Yes! I coded many games with Flash/AS3, which is regarded as low level these days, but it actually had a lot of abstraction over the rendering. For years I would battle with the op…

Awesome, that's great to know!

Is Safari actually getting WebGL2 support? I looked into this around 6 months ago, and what I gathered was the WebGL2 support was based on rumours from a Twitter post, and the supp…
