Full stack developer at my day job - other than that I make video games and gamedev tools.
I made a super hard arcade game 'Rockade!' currently working on an Asset Manager for GameDevs called 'Orlop'

@jason explains that the popular double-diamond model for design is flawed because it assumes the problem and solution spaces are separate

Orlop Asset Manager v1.1 now shows pretty previews and a play animation for audio assets. 💅
Also, everybody loves checkered backgrounds for transparent images, so I added this as well. Enjoy!

New on the blog: Programmers Have a Lot on Their Minds
When 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know was published, all the contributions were available online under Creative Commons Attribution. The Preface was not part of the set of contributions and was not previously online.
I often still quote from it, as I think there are some good general points about software development, so I've finally got round to making it available online.

I just managed to half the build size of Orlop to about 8MB on Win and Mac! Also CD/CI now works - but that isn't good social media content, so watch me admiring @Kay's Dungeon #Assets in Orlop ❤️
Okay #rust PSA: If you’re not building in CI, you should use `—remap-path-prefix` so binaries don’t leak your username and folder structure!
