This is game has been in the works for quite a while, and it's been amazing to see it taking form. Good luck @puppygames!

My toxic trait: when editing code in VS Code or really any IDE/code editor with a terminal I'll use Vim in the terminal to edit files outside of the project.

Really looking forward to playing more of this game. The demo on Steam was fun and chill.
21 days until my Kickstarter launches on January 30th... Scary 😱 but also exciting. It's a huge milestone :) I'm sure it's gonna be great for Spilled! ⚫️♻️

Fun idea: a few years ago Chat Roulette was a thing. How about Live Share coding project where you join a random project and code along with someone else.

Probably the best thing you'll see today. In 2017, a group of developers hilariously competed for who could create worst volume control interface in the world. The results 🧵 1/22

Random thought that just popped into my head: maybe people hate dealing with budgets because most people make them too complicated.

Yep. I think I forget how to type if people are watching me. Even more so if I'm standing up like at a standing desk.
I've never seen something more accurate 😫. Every time I code while someone is watching me I forget the most basic of things and second guess everything I am doing!

Building great things requires hard work - yes. But I think working the hours that requires sleeping at work is going to be productive short term but lead to burnout.

Current pet peeve: agile development has some great ideas. But most places implement it as getting as much work done each sprint (normally two weeks) and there’s never a time to rest. It’s not sustainable to sacrifice your health and family time for work.

Awesome times! I already can't wait for next year's @originsgames/@TheGDEX event! Hopefully I'll get to spend more time at it next time around.

I think I need these in my life.
Are you going to Kubecon Valencia? Do you want one of these limited edition open source dumpster fire challenge coins? Then read on!

I cannot begin to say how excited I am about this. Monkey Island was my favorite point and click adventure. And there was a TON of competition back when it came out. Bring on the insult sword fighting!
A little something we've been working on for the past 2 years in complete secrecy. youtu.be/sahskKAxSCY

I haven’t tried this game yet. I feel like now I need to.

Google has official renamed to ALphabet and Facebook is Meta. Does that mean FAANG is now MAANA?

@skatebirb I bought your game. My kids have parakeets. Now this is happening. I guess we can play Skatebird without a game system now.
