Thanks for the answers! I just want to point out that I don't think a reminder to use powers is enough. Right now you can lose on the next piece after using a power since it resolv…

Very nice job, got hooked immediately! Some feedback/thoughts: 1. I don't think the current approach to difficulty is fun, its just feels limiting without any interaction or ways t…

Great idea, simple and effective. Tiny bit of feedback: seems like some listings use "unit count" for the number of balls, look at the most expensive listing for an example. Annoyi…

I think what people usually mean is "scary" or "it's easy to mess up". Git is very easy to use until you mess up, then it can become complicated, and certain actions may have devas…

That article has no real arguments for the bias. And if you are trying to make a point, at least to to cite a somewhat neutral source, Elliott Abrams is very pro-Israel. You could …

Same story for me at a game studio bought by Microsoft. It was simply not worth the hassle. As an employee I still had to sit through the same customer support as anyone else, talk…

I hate standups, but I also hate no standups since most people are unable to grab people and sync when needed. Currently my team has two morning meetings, first the forced full tea…

First thought when reading the title was that it will look very fragile and clumsy when walking (even real birds do) and that was confirmed by the first video. What's the purpose o…

I agree that making an absolute statement like that is not great. But surely, if you understand the concept, you also know that it's way too common for extroverts having zero under…

I shared your opinion until I attended my first funeral as an adult. They are very important for the grieving process, at least to me. That doesn't mean much money needs to be spen…

That's the only type of test I know for sure has value, which makes them easy to write. At work I feel a certain pressure to test more or less everything, but personally I much pre…

Greenlight has not been a thing for 7 years or so, you can just pay a fee and publish your game.

I hope that if they manage to wrestle your retro games from you that you would explore some indie games instead. There are many small companies that make high quality games, usuall…

I thought about something similar today. My kid (2.5 years) watches some stuff on Netflix which is translated to Swedish from English. It's very obvious that the voice over and sub…

Similar on guitar with bends I think. I feel like using the index finger is very awkward, I use the middle finger or ring finger (when what I'm playing allows it) rather than the i…

Very cool to see someone actually making a game in their hobby engine! Regarding the asset prefetching, you mention that they are loaded lazily. Maybe I'm misunderstanding but to m…
