small correction the art/animation for Friday Night Funkin’ is created in Flash CS4, and Animate is only used to generate the spritesheets

Unfortunately in our reality Woz is merely a humble multimillionaire instead of a billionaire, and we do not have Woz funded makerspaces.

maybe true, but also in my self proclaimed non-keyboard warrior opinion, I think GIMP is a silly name. More so because I am juvenile. Photoshop is kinda a cool dope name, and unfortunately GIMP is not.

i’ve always been interested in improving the git workflow i have for my small team (usually 2-3 other programmers), i think particularly hopping branches/commits, merging changes, rebasing and reorganizing history, i think git does suffice for that stuff if you know the commands, but jj makes it feel so fluid and easy to do, and having enough depth to get as expressive as you need to be

a lot of other tools ive found were lacking for one reason or another, and mightve not been git compatible. with jj you can hop between git and jj commands as you please, essentially full compatibility with git

“jj op log” shows you the operation history, which you can then “jj op restore” and point to where you want to restore to :) (disclaimer: im still jj newbie, but this has gotten me out of the snafus ive put myself into while learning g)

pseudo vector art with ai image gen artifacts make my eyes unhappy

6 frames is not enough to realize you made a typo / read whatever git is outputting telling you that you made a typo, and then respond to that input correctly.

in video games it may seem like a lot of time for a reaction, but a lot of that “reaction time” is based off previous context of the game, visuals and muscle memory and whatnot. If playing street fighter and say youre trying to parry an attack that has a 6 frame startup, you’re already anticipating an attack to “react” to before their attack even starts. When typing git commands, you will never be on that type of alert to anticipate your typos.

hey! i met you in boston at the indie dev meetup during PAX!! your game is super awesome ! and im crazy looking forward to it

To explain the coffee comparisons, people like to buy coffee as a daily expense around the 3-5$. not exclusively starbucks, but it is a part of many people’s routines. so its a useful frame of reference for most people. hope this helps

haha thanks! Yeah Mike is a real programming wiz and he’s super inspiring! I’ve gone to him for programming help many times but he always tries to get me to learn it on my own than handholding me… lol. He’s one of the nicest people I know :)

That “someone” who made the fix for Proximity is Mike Welsh, who created Ruffle! He has done a lot of work for flash preservation and truly cares about Newgrounds and it’s community. Back in 2013 (when he was actually an employee of Newgrounds) he was the sole programmer on Swivel, probably the best swf-to-mp4 converting tools ever. Every animator I know that uses flash STILL use Swivel to get an MP4 export.
