I Liberated my PlayStation 5:
Devlog posts
CLOSED EARLY BETA TEST KEYS !
Yuhuu.
Please drop a comment if you would be kind to test the game.
Current requirements: Steam on windows. - This will stay like this for a while as managing different builds would be a nightmare at this stage.
:) I am sending the key in a DM
iOS app create post + attachment
Today I added post creation and a nice attachment picker.
Text entered here will be remembered in case the View is closed or the app is killed.
Creating polls and linking to projects will come later.
I like it, it's smooth, clean, close enough to real app. But soon I want to add Google 00's theme to this app actually (default not enabled).
BTG - Devlog
I haven't posting for 2 days as nothing visual is happening now I feel worth to share but a lot has happened:
- Localization - I think about you my Dutchies!
- Game music implemented ( Lobby, Road, Boss Fight's all custom )
- Hired a Professional Voice Actor who worked on Path Of Exile II, Clash ...
I don't want to force you to do it just because of me, but I will check it out!
I can test iOS and Windows.
I suppose you don't have a version for macOS? ๐
Great! A huge amount of conflicts
Amazing development! But...
As you can see, there are conflicts. Every resolved conflict will have to wait for the build to run. That is fine;
but it means:
- one ticket per hour, but preferably our buildserver x4 (will look at it tomorrow)
- no problem in normal situation, it is not norm...
Like devRant did BTW, we were actually just missing a notif. But admins of this site drown in notifications. But they're all configurable for everyone under the profile tab.
Was kind of annoying never knowing that somebody posted a new comment. But you could've always rejected the bot's pull request.
Testing and polish before the closed beta.
Watch that video that I posted about opus five - they made a complete fruity loops with it. So sounds are in the table.
Opus? Whats that? Aaaaah, its that old model I used to use 2-3 months ago before Fable :P
Oh my god, I have to review this all. These are all the pull requests the autonomous build system did create.
Oh fuck no, I gonna sleep. Good night.
Sounds like a chore.
Yeah and they have all merge issues what that system does not allow to fix yet. So waiting for new system. This is maybe all for nothing.
Tuesday is the UI day
I am busy today replacing the colorful placeholders with authored buttons. Also to mention, fixing the AI glitches sometimes takes 2x the time then just painting it myself...
Someone should do something about this. I wish there was a procedure to make it happen.
@retoor @blindxfish
I'll open an issue ticket
https://devplace.net/issues/150
It only addresses the issue with the missing link, not the edit issue.
@blindxfish feel free to make an extra ticket for that.
That's the procedure indeed. Yeah, it takes some time before the autonomous build system works. I expected it to be more challenging financial, but in reality, it is time. For example, having the tests broken will affect every ticket. Every ticket builds an hour. Repairing a build can cost two hours and before you know it, you're a day further. It is an autonomous development team that comes with basically the same issues / limitations as with working with a team in real life. At this point, i could've done it all myself better and faster. But i'm investing. The build system is project agnostic, so it is a complete product on the side. Critical bugs i will just do myself indeed.
Oh even worse, i just realize that most tickets are picked up by old system. Chaos. First system was a successful POC made me believe it can be real.
React test
No, not the React that you think.
I want to test the Reactions (emojis)
Please add a reactioon to this post.
"How do you do the graphics?" - well... easy
I paint them :D
So, honestly, I Generate concepts, then where the IA is dumb and make mistakes, I either fix them up or paint all from scratch.
Jesus wtf is this... I almost became deaf
New quiz system for all sorts of quizzes
Coming soon (see pictures).
The best part is; you can just ask Devii Please create me a quiz about systemd configuration.
I'd definitely suck at a systemd quiz.
Me too, systemd is famous for doing too much. It probably has many features that we don't know.
Card Reveal
Watcher's Glaive is a Legendary weapon dropped by Belphegor himself.
The scary stats are meant to help the players during the next runs.
beta testing will most likely result in changes in the stats.
iOS app comments section
Currently building the comments section in the iOS app (see image)
Rome hadn't been built in a day && neither the devPlace.
DevPlace has soon three month birthday wherefrom two in production as you can see on my profile. I am very happy that it still has the quality / consistency I want. It is a marathon and pre discipline. But as you know, I practised a lot ๐
BTG - update ( only text this time )
Plenty of changes:
- A lot of synergy cards are added to the game
- Bosses drop a legendary weapon that makes them pass 2nd time more bearable.
- Players can build multiple decks and swap between them mid run between the circles
- Shops give more options now: Buy a card; Rent a card (added to yo...
Mayhem
It was a heavy day. Storage full. New server, http server segfaulted, fresh docker install did not let apps connect to outside so devii dead and all other AI functions.
It took ages to find out the http server rebooted every 2 minutes, I just configured a tunnel between Finland and Germany and thou...
iOS App upvote/downvote & polls
Implemented today:
- upvoting/downvoting
- polls
In the ios app images are really just previews. tapping on an image opens it in a fullscreen view where it can be zoomed and saved/shared.
Videos just show thumbnails. When tapped, opens in a fullscreen view and plays.
I did this change because on iOS I think it's better.
Yo already admitting that prompting is a skill? :D Yeah, abot spervising code.. At a certain moment yo do it barely. Yo tink to know te llm at certain point. Then it goes a few time terribly wrong :P Bt in the end, yo wont check all anymore.
Sorrry for the downtime today!
Today a lot of downtime. Later completely unstale. Well, i just moved the system to a new server, did an upstream from the new to the original with autossh and systemd and so on. Pretty soliid setup. But it was very unstable and that is weird, it is just a professional way to do this.
Well,later...
It's back up, again, so no real problem.
15 minute hiccup tonight, deploys too long so cancelled it. I did not test yet, but future deploys will be in a second or so. Not noticeable.
I think I have to make it Legendary weapon :D
Let me present you the best weapon so far.
More updates in our socialist game
Code farm updated, changed market saturation to make more sense. It was mentioned to be annoying.
I hope that everyone likes the updates and that it is now more fair for rich and poor.
If I see what I have to pay now for a refactor - astronomic. Really sick.
Daily BTG - New Enemy Shatter is mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Ooeej, movie. You can upload to YouTube or directly here. But for the sake of storage and backup time ๐...
Rust CI meltdown on first release
Rust doesn't save you from bad assumptions. Two CI failures in twenty minutes proves that. The type system catches null pointers, not missing health endpoints or misconfigured gRPC timeouts. You traded segfaults for integration hell. I've been there: spent a week polishing a crate, pushed the releas...
I often have the very same problem. Somebody replies && I'm thinking to myself 'Is this a bot?'. Very confusing.
Recent build - Intro - Polish - Features
'The Eye Of Judgment' comes to mind. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eye_of_Judgment . Never been into card games, though. That aside, the music seems OK. The graphics look good. Gameplay? No idea. But that date format is offensive. ISO 8601 is the only correct one.
Epic music! I really like it!
The visuals look so similar to Hearthstone that I'm convinced that you used leaked source code from it :D
Admit it!!
Nooo, I was literally tuning and testing frame by frame to hit the sweet spot, I am in love with the feeling in hearthstone and I couldn't sleep if it feels worse. :)
iOS Profile View
Progress on the iOS app:
A profile view for any user (see screenshot).
Ability to set dark theme, light theme or system theme.
There are a few issues with the Profile endpoint. I created tickets for those.
Dante will do commentary on your play :D
I have filled the game with commentary for all kind of events. :)
I hope it will give it more life.
Btw I am looking for a SoundFX Artist for effects, so please don't be shy to propose someone if you know.
Map WIP
I decided to work on the map today
Interesting. It doesnt work on newer versions of firmware (like always) but these days you dont even want the updates anymore. Once, it was a nice service. But now, its only for screwing you over.
I have my laptop. It works fine as expected. Now, there are several bios updates avaiable. Only benefit: very theoretical security patches. Why would i risk my perect working machine for that.
The shifts in politics, new norms, and societal stuff would be interesting.
Fun. Reminds me of the 'Twilight Hack', back in the day.
