remember him saying something about not using temporary assets in your game cause its a bad idea.

It's industry standard to do this. A lot.

Even game programmers in general do it for methods they haven't fleshed out yet with

Python:
class FerretCharacter:

 attributes = []

 def __init__(self):
  pass #this is the placeholder line

statements. He's a fraud.

Edit: I like PEP8.

Is that the short where he claims they're bad because of his story where devs forgot to take them out during testing?
Yes I think so. I don't wanna look it up because I the less I have to hear him speak the better for my mental health.
statements. He's a fraud.
Well yeah. I'm just thinking how my work would go if we had to stop what we're doing and wait for specific parts instead of just using a placeholder or something on hand until what we need got there.

You can't get anything done.
 
Here's my advice on using AI pixel art for prototyping: just do it.
Using AI for prototyping is retarded. Just go for any site like itch.io/opengameart.org and download one of many available free packs.
There is additional benefit that if you get somewhere with your game, you have contacts to someone whom you can commission to produce more assets that will be consistent with overall style. Something that AI cannot really do reliably.

This. Wanted to say the same thing. Opengameart.org is a great website with a whole bunch of free assets for your projects.
 
i wanna draw attention to the characters within this episode of maldy attacking his community like a retarded pedantic child

nemutai has joined his discord in 2021. waaaay before the shorts and wow drama ever happened.
dr cookie joined before the wow drama, in early 2024
david is from even earlier than that, 2018, from the early build days of heartbound, probably a champions of breakfast fan
the only potential troll is cutestcat

screenshot for context of what the fuck i am talking about in case you forgot (i think this was already posted)

and aside from grandmaster dickrider myke, they're having none of that
View attachment 7535904
toast but cereal joined before the wow drama, in late 2024

these are the people maldy is attacking by saying:

>making it seem
which implies intent and
>empowering dogshit behavior
admitting these actually personally affect him

he's going after long standing fans :story:
this guy is a fucking moron bro lmfao
Just saw that Nemutai slapped back at Jason today. Inb4 that retard bans them

according to that link the only instance reviews arent removed is if they are marked as off-topic

so some nigga is posting his address or saying roach and mald is reporting them to steam as off-topic. or hes just stupid and doesnt know that the reviews are in fact being removed

or hes lying

the face of indie game development doesnt know how steam fucking works

also look at the messages bro
"No matter how much you love and enjoy Heartbound it objectively has issues, pretending it doesn't is weird."
"the community has developed the air of an abusive relationship with giant elephants in the room."
"I'm in no way trying to downplay the level of hate the studio receives daily."
"I didn't want to say anything but this part is incorrect."

imagine being part of a fanbase where youre too afraid to say shit cos that can get you banned

I feel really bad for Ross, he doesn't deserve any of this. Jason's weird dissection of the "politicians like easy wins" line really fucking bothers me because it refuses to engage with reality as it exists. He seems to have this strange just-world delusion that because a certain conception of something is "right", that it's also the only solution worth pursuing. That sort of inflexibility and inability to understand the game of politics and the behavioral inclinations of people is one of the biggest reasons we have a lot of the legislative deadlocking we do right now.

Even if we assume he's not acting duplicitously and in bad faith, it's a classic case of a hyper-idealist caring more about projecting a sense of virtuousness than actually getting anything fucking done. Wanting to be the captain of the sinking ship, and all that.

Nepo baby moment. Will never ever ever ever have any real opinion on anything because whenever there is a challenge his parents will handle it for him.
 
can someone point me to a post explaining the mald wow drama? i have heard about it but i dont know the details.

This thread is over 500 pages long and only a year old. I've been sleeping on this guy.

Free my nigga Ross.
a lot of it is mald jannies running FUD campagians.

note that ross does not refer to mald as a developer in the beginning of that segment. that is educated disrespect and i like it.
 
I like the video, though I feel it's a bit too long and overpacked and that may turn off a significant amount of people who aren't really invested.

Ross mentions he regretted not leaning into the drama aspect, and it makes me wonder if the significant PirateSoftware section was built to help distribute the information through the drama slop pipeline. Whether intentional or not, I hope it works. Even if this specific campaign fails, getting many eyes on the issue and its specifics is at least a step in the right direction.

Looks like this post broke the news of the roach heard 'round the world:
I don't have a lot of knowledge regarding this guy, but there's currently a lot of drama in the streamer hardcore classic world of warcraft guild and all associated places due to him refusing to help his group in a dire situation. To add further context, hardcore in world of warcraft means that your character has one life and once you die you have to relevel a new character which takes at least 100h if you're not familiar with the game. He did absolutely nothing to help, ran away to save himself (referred to as a roach or roaching out) and refused to admit any fault. Other streamers, especially the guy in the first clip called YamatosDeath are upset while Pirate is in full damage control mode - refusing to take even a modicum of accountability.
