Jaksamisia.
Without a Dawn - harvinaisen nätin näköinen suomalainen peli ASCII-tyylitellyllä graffalla
Without a Dawn is a dark, psychological, and philosophical visual horror novel featuring a hauntingly beautiful pseudo-ASCII art.
Tämä ei ole vielä julkaistu, mutta kun osui tuon pelin graffat silmiin, niin meni aika nopeasti toivelistalle.
Katsoo jos kävisi vielä juoksulenkillä töiden jälkeen, sitten olisi neljä päivää romaanien kirjotteluun aikaa.
Is this development cost or marketing cost, tho
Alongside the Buddy Bot, Frost Giant's implementing game modes to appeal to players who are interested in RTS gameplay, but might not seek out the intensity of 1-on-1 competitive RTS matches. In addition to a story campaign that can be played with three players, Stormgate will have a separate 3-vs-AI mode, custom games, and a competitive 3-vs-3 mode where each team has to defend a single, large base structure.
As the typical RTS enjoyer who only plays singleplayer, this type of paragraphs make me less and less interested in this game.
This is unfortunately typical of visual novels. The line level sentence-to-sentence prose is rarely even adequate, and often what they choose to describe is already shown as an image on the screen. The best ones, I feel, simply omit the prose and have only dialogue, and if they choose to describe an already-visible image, the description ought to tell what isn't already available as visual information.
Thank you for your informative comment. I know I'm almost a month late, but I'm about to start my vacation and needed a nice city building game to try.
Kiitoksia kun jaksat tunkata!
Thanks, forwarded this post-mortem to my current meta question.
Myöskin, tämmöinen ongelma oli toisessa instanssissa https://dbzer0.com/blog/post-mortem-the-massive-lemmy-world-lemmy-dbzer0-com-federation-delays/
Lienekö sopulilla vastaavia datacenter-hajautuksia?
Osaatko sanoa onko tässä kyse siitä, että lemmyä ei ole suunniteltu lemmy.worldin kokoisille instansseille, vai ratkeaako ongelma pistämällä lisää laskentatehoa / load balansointia instanssiin?
reported to meta. It looks like this is not the first time this kind of issues happen with between instances https://sopuli.xyz/post/9076347?scrollToComments=true
Ongelmia sopulin ja lemmy.worldin välillä
Huomasin, että artshare-yhteisön viestit olivat vähentyneet valtavasti. Kysäisin asiasta, ja näyttäisi siltä, että sopuli ei saa lemmy.worldista viestejä laisinkaan tai niissä on viivettä.
Tässä esimerkki: https://lemmy.world/post/14776968?scrollToComments=true
vs
https://sopuli.xyz/post/12019913?scrollToComments=true
Mistähän johtuisi?
On the left: this community viewed directly through lemmy.world instance. On the right: this community viewed through sopuli.xyz
META - where did the people go?
I noticed that for a week or so now the community has been much smaller tham it used to be. I'm seeing an almost 90% decrease in posts, comments, and votes. Did something get defederated or did a big community go down? Lemmy stats show that Lemmy average user count is still about the same.
Good work! Perspective is one of those things that is pretty mechanical, and one can avoid learning it for a long time by using crutches. It's always faster to work when one has internalized perspective and especially foreshortening so it comes automatically.
Excellent use of shape and light!
Losing vision as an artist has to be one of the most difficult experiences ever. So glad you share your art. Do you have more art available somewhere?
Finland also isn't in Scandinavia.
From distance, I thought I'd see an ultra-detailed sketch, but this is conveyed by nothing but the directional lines suggesting of detail. Minimalism at best.
Kun viimeksi näitä vertailin, niin samaa tasoa olivat. Nordnetin poikkeus oli siihen aikaan superrahastot joissa oli 0% kulut.
I see you continue to prefer orange and yellow colors. Do you have to order markers in bulk by now?
I sort of hoped that Lemmy communities would have a more original "redditquette" idea to downvoting where downvotes are explained and only done when a post is noise instead of signal. But I guess downvoting as a system will always be "I don't like this opinion/post". It's a shame.
I upvoted this because you posted artwork that you created yourself, which is the point of this community.
Uuden topicin kielivalinta ei toimi
Jos yrittää postata uuden topicin ainakin meta-osastoon, niin kieltä ei voi valita. Selaimen network-tabilta tulee oheinen virhe:
undefined
{"error":"language_not_allowed"}
tälle requestille:
undefined
https://sopuli.xyz/api/v3/post payload: {"name":"Kielivalinta ei toimi","community_id":4,"body":"asdasdsadsads","language_id":44}
vaikuttaisi tapahtuvan sekä suomelle että englannille. Jos kieltä ei valitse, postaus onnistuu.
Linkkien kuva-previewin muodostaminen
Mahtaisiko täältä löytyä vinkkejä siihen miten saisin oman taideportfolioni linkit toimimaan niin, että kuvien esikatselu toimisi aina?
Tästä linkistä muodostui preview: https://sopuli.xyz/post/9123511
Tästä ei: https://sopuli.xyz/post/10080062
Molemmissa käytetään og:image
-metatagia.
Jälkimmäisessä oli alunperin jpegin tiedoissa orientaationa top-right, jonka myöhemmin korjasin top-left. Pohdin olisiko tuosta kiinni ja korjautuisiko preview jos jokin lemmyn cache nollautuisi tuolle linkille.

When the British empire colonized afterlife
My longest work yet, around 5-6 days I think. I started with a 14 line armature and painted the figure, then tried to decide what to add to each line / knot. Ultimately, I didn't quite manage to use the armature, but it still turned out ok.
