For some reason whenever I wrote a quick obj parser, I never bothered to think about the case where the faces in the file had more than 3 points. It was easier in the moment to just triangulate the meshes before loading them in the 3D app. In practice on

With constexpr in c++11, I can.
Drifter updates have been weekly so I collated the last few updates into one post. The updates are live on Steam and the Humble store.
Weekly releases continue, and we're aiming for one last update in the 0.6.x range since 0.7.0 is nearly done.
Add it to your Steam wishlist if you haven't, review it if you're inclined. Thanks!

The store widgets to buy it are behind "read more", for your convenience.

Continued, A short dev post about a tiny stealth game in http://pico-8.com.
For something I'm just slowly making for fun on the side of my side-side projects it has been fun to isolate scope so heavily. Here's a short update of how it's going.
Have you played Bombernauts? It's available on Steam and is a whole lot of fun. It's a great multiplayer game by Tyler Glaiel with art by Sven Ruthner and audio by Brandon McCartin.
For the most recent update – which adds Steam workshop support (full patch notes) – Tyler mentioned needing a hand with a banner quick, and I was in a good position to help out and was happy to help some friends in a bind.
I painted the banner based on some of the power ups in the game, below is the final banner we ended up with. The other Sven painted the robot part, and I merged it into this scene and did the rest. I had a lot of fun painting this!
Check the game out, and bring some friends since it's a good game in groups :D

I had a short break from working on this, while waiting for pico-8 0.1.4. In the meantime I had finished blocking in all the details of the narrative and how that all ties together. I planned a lot of levels on paper and graphed out some ideas for overall structure, and I've done a lot of other stuff that would spoil things if I posted about them at the moment.
Here's a less spoilery, vague, outdated graph diagram before I talk a bit about what I've been doing here.
The fourth Narcissus update for Drifter is out!

Here is some concept art for some of the other interiors and facilities heading into the game. They're obviously WIP!

Just a short post with a really obscure error from iconutil, after an El Capitan upgrade.
If you run a command similar to:
iconutil -c icns some.iconset -o some.icns
And you get (sic):
error: Unsuported image format
Here are two important things:

I've made quite a bit of progress today so here is a short gif. I now have all the systems in place, and can move on to finishing out the levels and narrative, and higher level ideas. Read more below for the gif and more info.
