I *love* when games don't explain themselves.
I've seen a lot of game design discourse saying games ought to be self-contained. If you have to google it, the game isn't providing you the information you need!
e.g. Minecraft without the wiki and armies of video guides would be nearly unplayable. Similarly, the Dark Soulses are exceedingly cryptic and generally demand research in order to play effectively.
That this is a flaw seems to be taken as self-evident. But I don't think it is.
Hello, fellow game designers!
I highly dislike "per X" resource based design, e.g. per rest / per encounter. I prefer resources with a variety of ways that can raise/loser, but mostly just lower, to band those—and let resource regen tie to time/rest/etc.
How do you avoid it in your designs, or how do you embrace if it you enjoy that sort of design?
Hi! I been using #godotengine for more than four years and worked with it since then! It has been a wonderful time with ups and downs. Four years ago i thought we needed to have a conversation.
Four years later, with all my love and hopes, i invite you to have another one.

This is the result of hundreds upon hundreds of hours of work. Please, share if you can.

Hi friends,
The http://alt-text.org alt text library project needs a new leader, I have brain cancer.
I built a working, scalable, proof of concept library of shared alt text with fuzzy matching.
I'd like to connect with the #accessibility dev community. I want to hand the project off to a team or a leader if anyone is willing to take it over.
Github: https://github.com/alt-text-org
WIP MVP: a site designed for writing alt text with a private library: https://my.alt-text.org
Boosts appreciated
