Talk about anything

I just tried Mission:ISS. That VR app was a genuine experience. I always knew astronauts had to do so much for simple things we take for granted here on the planet, but it really is a whole other thing to see some of those things they have to use in order to survive. Even eating looks like a real pain.

I never realized that astronauts have their own version of burgers. Identical to what we have here, with one exception- they put it all in a tortilla instead of a bun.

Audiobellum I get wanting to break pop tradition and some people may like what you have. I'm more of a prog and punk kind of person. It's more my style of "deviance".

I like this version:

Kojack That was nice but, now you've sent me down the rabbit hole of parodies for this song. XD

Mission: ISS was great. I really like the movement controls (when fully unlocked) where you can use both hands to rotate yourself.
Lone Echo 1 & 2 are awesome, but I was disappointed that their movement didn't have the ISS style rotation.

Have you ever felt that you've worked on a game for way too long before? Sort of like you know of ways in which you could improve your project but, you just feel tired of you're project; you just want to publish it then forget about it. Have you ever felt like that?

Audiobellum
Can't say that I have, but there's an easy solution -- work on something else. Don't give in to the temptation to publish before it's ready. That way lies endless regret. [Unless you're a big company. Then you just ignore the cries of outrage and patch everything months later. ]

Audiobellum Yep. Totally. Then I jump to another project. I actually am staring at my latest project, wondering when/if I will get it done before that happens. Best way to deal with it imo is to make a very small project- and ignore the awesome features you want in it. Those features will come in another update. Just get a first viable product out.

This project I'm doing now is not going to be so simple as it is larger and has more features than usual in the base game. For this, I just have to build it little bit by bit each day, and not overdoing it. Otherwise, I truly WILL get sick of it. I guess when push comes to shove, I'll at least have games to play to give me a break. Sometimes getting a game that sucks your brain into itself to free yourself of the work is what is necessary. For me, it was this freaky game:

Yo, Carter on Netflix was friggin crazy.

No it's not. It just a way to get on consoles, and also to support full time staff. That is a separate project from the main open source Godot, it's a company to support commercial interest in Godot, but not commercializing Godot itself. And this is a good time to do something like this if the maintainers are serious about the engine.

That looks like a 3rd person Hardcore Henry.
I'll have to check it out.

All looks fine to me.

Juan posted some comments on Twitter that are relevant.

Unreal is not open source. The source is available, but still proprietary and with many restrictions.

Kojack All looks fine to me.

Yeah, it's all kosher. Basically just a way to get on consoles and provide professional support. Seems pretty reasonable and a fair way to keep the project alive. Most successful open source projects only were able to generate any revenue off support contracts, so seems like a solid plan.
