A mixed day trying to make a game today. On the downside, I’ve mostly been fighting temporal aliasing as the engine tries to keep up with me throwing lots of neon lights around a dark level. On the upside, fighting temporal aliasing sounds like some bad ass sci-fi.

@robinwhittleton @jonty this has reminded me of an early job which involved training people who barely knew what a computer was how to do the basics.

The boy’s gaming laptop has decided the week before Christmas is the time to self-destruct. Mostly it does nothing but turn the power LED on. Occasionally it’ll crank all the fans to full power while doing so.
