For people seeing COGITO for the first time:
- Free to use for Godot!
- 100% GenAI free!
- There's already 3 games on Steam using it (that I know of)
"Sanrio plans to launch ten games over the next three years."
They'll better be working on a Ringing Bell souls-like.

@virtualbri@mastodon.online Didn't they get 300k a month without Anthropic?
Feeling like writing a new blog post this week. Anything specific y'all would want to read?
Gamedev general, COGITO, GRIDHACK? A completely different topic? Recent discourse?
How about that Starfox 64 remake?

@zenbrowser Thank you! Been using Zen for over 6 months now and reading this makes me very happy.
A fun thing I like to do is sort my Steam Library by Release Date and completely let it shatter my comprehension of time.
Starfield released after BG3 ?
NFS Heat released before FH4 ?

@eniko I almost feel ashamed at how late in life I learned about the whole tolerance is a social contract thing, but as soon as I did, a lot of stuff made way more sense to me. Including the volcano shoving.

A clear vision of your game is important, then you can evaluate any decision if they bring you closer to that vision.
Of course it's hard to envision fun gameplay without playing it, so my approach works like this:
Game vision is about mood / emotions / story that I want the player to experience.
Prototyping mechanics: Does this gamefeel move the player towards the game's vision?
Then I kinda loop between the two for a bit: Sometimes you find a game mechanic that is great, but doesn't fit your vision -> put it in your backpocket, or adjust your vision if it's not too far off target.
Or you tweak your mechanic to fit more towards the vision.
Oh no, a puzzle game that's entirely conditional statements. And it's good.
