You can simplify your rng by using global randomize(). Then you won't have to remember to create a new random generator, and you can generate random stuff with randi_range() instead of rng.randi_range(). That is, if you don't need several differently-seeded random generators.

Couldn't read through the whole code because of messed up formatting.

Count the fingers in your head or out loud. They may have the wrong number of fingers, the number may change while you try to count them, the fingers can be deformed and keep on changing when you look at them.

Ah shit, my suspicion was correct - I'm an AI, and a bad one at that. Now I know why the world around me doesn't feel real.

Programming.dev is exactly on point. Nice

I wish I didn't slack off on math. Now that I'm doing gamedev I've had to re-learn a lot of it.

Same goes for English, actually. Not my native language

In a 300-meter radius I have two large stores that I visit often, one super large 1 km away, and lots of small ones. Plus there are plenty of fast-food places all around. If I'm cooking something and realize I don't have an ingredient it takes like 7 minutes on foot to get it and be back in my kitchen. So I have never felt the need to have a car.

That's cool, that's cool. I bet with some kind of neural link we'll be able to bump that up to 200%

Gnome-Software and GDebi can do exactly that for you. Download a deb, right click "open with X", and they'll install it for you using GUI. You can even change file associations so debs are opened by gdebi/gnome-software by simple double-clicking.

I used to work night shifts and sometimes had to function afterwards, sometimes for long periods of time. What helped me to stay awake and somewhat clear-minded is light physical activity. Don't sit too much, move, walk around, do some squats, do push ups if you can. Get some fresh air. Cold water on the face helps. If your eyes tend to get tired get some eye drops (artificial tears). And of course coffee helps too.

Also be careful, it's easy to lose balance in a sleep deprived state. So no dangerous surroundings if you can help it.

Question. Why is the grass so... perfect? Do they mow it regularly? Is there someone who maintains these ruins, and it's more like a public park rather than a truly abandoned site?

Beautiful.

they no longer have to worry about printing games (so that cost is gone)

While digital distribution is definitely cheaper, it isn't free. The cost of printing games got replaced with the storefront's cut. Steam takes 30%, for example.

I'm not defending the $80 price tag, but the storefront cut is a personal concern for me as an aspiring indie dev. Sadly, the 30% cut is also being pushed as an "industry standard".

Found the place. It was here:
