I have important news!

When you try to look for ways to statically link SDL3 using GCC, all of the search results point to the cmake example here:
https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL3/README-cmake

Say good bye to the bloated build files because you don't have to use cmake at all!

Instead you can just run:
gcc <Source File> --static `pkg-config --cflags --libs SDL3 --static` -o <Output File>

There are tens of us (in the CA Godot Users's Discord)! If you actually count the massive BAGM in SF (they have a Discord too), well, we're actually a mob. I want us to swarm #GDC2027 with #godot #gamedev #solodev #godotengine #california

I've written a blog post on my experiences of going through the creation of Juggle Star DX.

TL;DR - it was hard but rewarding

I've been writing my own &*%$ code for over 10 years and learning how to use a makefile makes me feel like I'm still a baby.

I just released my first commercial video game. 🥳 After two years in development, hopefully, it's worth the weight.

Meet Juggle Star DX!

I think I'll be following this up with some reflections on the whole ordeal soon. There's a ton of my thoughts floating out there. I need to process this a bit first.
