There's a game development engine called Godot? Does whatever you write in it just get stuck at the loading screen forever?

"No!"
"That's how electronics work. All the components have magic smoke inside. When it gets out, they stop working."
"Oh, I thought it was gnomes doing all the work in there?"
"Well, gnomes are known for smoking pipes, right? Maybe it's gnomish pipe smoke?"
"I'm glad we could find a mutually consistent explanation," they said.
"I'm pretty flexible!"
"No!"

Dating Sims at the Humble Bundle
Feb. 12th, 2015 10:22 pmMy dad pointed me at the current Humble Indie Bundle of the week. It's dating sims! *bounces* I've looked for dating sims on my phone, but almost all of what I find is unplayably poor translations of Japanese games. Here, I can pick up six for less than $6.
One of them is a cute game called Roommates, which is a college slice-of-life sim that I've already played through the free version of on my phone. It was one of the few good ones, so I think it's worth the price by itself. I don't know the other ones, but they look interesting at the least.
And I'm going to give them $10 to get Hatoful Boyfriend as well. If you haven't heard of Hatoful Boyfriend, it's one of those wonderfully bizarre things that could only come from Japan. You are a human girl who lives in a world where most of the human population was wiped out by a terrible disease that also mutated birds into human-sized, intelligent creatures. You are attending an avian high school. And as noted, this is a dating sim.Yes. I read through a play-through with screenshots a year or two ago and it was *way* too funny not to spring for.
(But I'm not going to pay the $35 to get a pillowcase with one of the Hatoful Boyfriend characters on it....)

Here's that playthrough I mentioned. This is *hilarious*. The author begins, " I have a horrible cold and I am miserable so naturally I am dating pigeons."
