I’m only alive because successfully killing myself is hard. Bernadette, she/her, smash bros addict, dog person, work addict, ruined beyond repair, stuck in the past. I will defend Amazon and Nintendo like they’re the parents I never had. They did, and will do, nothing wrong, ever.

  • There are tutorials that have you build a game to learn the basics and syntax and stuff. Oh, right, if you actually do use GameMaker avoid that drag&drop layout at all costs lol it’s not “easier”

    But if you have it all written out already, now you just need to read the manual on whatever development platform you chose and figure out how to make the computer do what you have written. Like, if you want the title screen to have scrolling clouds and a bouncing logo for example, you’ll need to find out how to change the logo sprite’s Y coordinate and the clouds’ X coordinate using the documentation.

    Tldr do one of those “my first game” tutorials on whatever platform you chose to get the feel of it.





  • When you play a game on release date that wasn’t leaked, spoilers and stuff surface on the internet at an average pace. Players who wait a long time to play the game will have this similar experience.

    Leaked content spreads like wildfire as the posters know it’ll most likely be taken down, and well, streisand effect. All communities for the game will be flooded with untagged spoilers before the game is even out. I bet that streamer was basically speedrunning the games to leak as much as possible, which most players who just enjoy the game won’t do.

    Either way, the money asked for is a lot, yes, however pirating and broadcasting unreleased games is a very stupid crime.



  • Before release is before everyone gets a chance at playing it themselves. This person also isn’t a professional reviewer or journalist so their content isn’t beneficial to the consumer either. Before also releases spoilers that will be near impossible to avoid once they’re out. And what’s the point of playing the hot new game if you already know the story?

    I call Nintendo my angel of salvation and the mother I never had, but I’m just being realistic. Streaming (actually) pirated new games actually does cause damage. Most likely not as much as Nintendo is suing for, but damages nonetheless.

    If they were suing for streaming Super Mario World romhacks, especially in 2025 where SMW is old enough to be a dad or the United States President, and is NOT being actively sold, then yeah, I’d disagree. Even if one were to pull “but it’s on Switch Online” or some silly nonsense.












  • My whole life. All the time that was taken from me, and all I can do now is run and never hide from that shit and people associated with that shit. It might end up taking my job or apartment because some random people assumed I can’t work and live on my own despite working and living on my own.

    Nothing will lessen the pain as everyone believes I deserved to be abused and that I should just know my place in society as a thing everyone abuses and nothing else. I should just get over it and accept that I’m less than everyone else and that I’m not a human being.

    The same people abusing me, locking me away from society, and raising me to be a burden they wish died already so they wouldn’t need to deal with me anymore would fight tooth and nail for me to not kill myself though. I’m loved somehow. But when I’m not trying to die, you want me to die. Which is it?

    Actually nothing happened. I’m mourning nothing. I was a spoiled child who had everything and a perfect childhood with everything. Nothing ever happened to me.
