More playing about with interpreting strings, this time added through the editor - i.e. no tokens. It's "not-really-scripting".

I have a few tokens left still so hoping I can add a little bit of "API" so that I can make Oust's caverns more interesting. The video is pretty proof concept, of course, but I still had to rush through to the kitchen to explain to the gf when it finally worked and now you can nod and smile at it too! Backing away optional.

#pico8 #indiedev #editor

OustEd, editor for Oust, is used to tweak a crude script added to an object in a test level. This is saved then Oust is started in the same cavern level and a portion of the wall appears and disappears along with a particle effect depending on where the ship flies.

This is more like it! Very happy with this selection and movement setup.

There are just one or two minor changes I would want to make.

After that, next is curve editing mode, and then some cleanup. The prototype has been pretty messy!

#NURBS #GameDev #Editor

Using selection and movement to create characters out of NURBS shapes.

Showcasing moving curves as a shape group and individually, as well as selecting shapes and moving them as a selection group.

There is a golden rule among editors: do no harm. What does this mean? It means we correct grammar and improve flow, and offer suggestions about character or plot, but above all, we work to ensure an author’s voice and vision remain intact.

Well, this is not really how it's supposed to work, but I guess it's kind of an amusing glitch.

Gotta go to bed. I will continue cleaning this up tomorrow!

#NURBS #Editor #GameDev

A shape and curve editor. Clicking and dragging on shapes duplicates them in white.

There's a glitch where something gets a yellow outline in the middle of the video, then shapes are duplicated again by clicking and dragging.

I made quite the detailed design document for how selection was going to work.

This is mostly following it, but naturally I don't like how it feels so I'm considering completely re-working it.

It is nice that there's a clear and easy way to select things that are overlapped by other things.

This is for all my writing toots – if you're working on a manuscript, and you're ready to take things to the next level, then I'd recommend @chayce as an editor.

For example, I just had him do a developmental edit of one of my WIP and he's saved me MONTHS of trying to locate all the story and character issues. But he's great on line editing and proofing too, whatever you need! You can also find him on LinkedIn:

Very excited by this one. The opening line (and the whole chapter) came to me in the middle of the night in January.

I've spent the last 6 months, getting the story told. One final re-read and check before sending it off to my #editor.

Looking forward to seeing what my #illustrator has designed for its cover.

This is the exciting part of #writing!

I'm late to the appreciation party, but everyone who works with fiction writers should read Craft in the Real World by Matthew Salesses. There are so many big and important ideas in this book. It challenges our ideas of craft and illuminates how they're tied to culture and power. As an editor who works with magical realism and genre-bending fiction, digesting these ideas will help me better support writers.

I have always used the editor joe since I learned Linux many years ago.

But I always have to install it since it’s not installed by default.

I’m now looking for another editor to learn/use.

I’m looking for one that’s easy to use, pre-installed on all (or most) *NIX systems (MacOS, Linux, BSD etc).

Which one should I learn?

(I see that both vim and nano is installed by default on MacOS and Debian).

Anyone got any tips?

I recently encountered one of those real-life monster #authors like the kind from the mid-20th century (Normal Mailer etc). A total dinosaur walking amongst us, roaring and stomping and parping out his wisdom to the unenlightened fluffy bunnies beneath his mighty feet.

Wow. It was like this guy was a house built of hubris, booze and narcissism, but at the same time, so incredibly fragile about any perceived slight to his work. I pity any #editor or #publisher who has to work with him. It would be a case of bring your own eggshells to walk on and some earplugs for the lectures about how "a real #writer writes," that were given AFTER a 1 hour lecture about how he's the Bob Dylan of writing... all orated during his morning manly "health" regime in his skivvies, which involved stretching elastics and doing the NY Times crossword at the same time.

The struggle (to disentangle yourself from a twanging exercise elastic while droning about the importance of plot and character, and nonchalantly solving a crossword clue) is real!

Man darf den gefilmten Menschen, den Interviewpartner, den O-Ton-Geber nicht zum Ding und Objekt machen. Man muss, selbst wenn man seinen Stadtpunkt nicht teilt, seine Perspektive gelten lassen und seine Binnensicht erst einmal verstehen, ehe man ihn oder sie in Beziehung zu widerstreitenden Perspektiven setzt.»
