He's announcing an annoucement for the release of his new going back in time potion

Let's see if he's not a retard again and doesn't make sliding platforms that softlock you if you activate them without being on top.

He looks happy with what he's accomplished, good for him. It's the best feeling in the world to have finished a piece of work that you truly think is good. Will others understand it? Will they like it? Probably not but that doesn't matter, since nothing matters in the long term. He's already won.

ok, now go and check when he announced The Witness and when he finished it.
>>
>>107508095
thats what i took from it too, hes in a really good mood and im happy to see him excited. i will never use anything he has made or play his games, because i'm a brainlet. but he's a cool guy and i don't talk shit about him like disgusting vermin jeets.
>>
>>107508315
Hehe, yeah, I'm also too much of a brainlet to really enjoy or finish any of his games. I've played the Witness a bit and really enjoyed the colors-puzzle but got stuck on several puzzles not knowing where to look for clues. It's really weird that many of the puzzles are very easy due to them trying to teach some of the mechanics but then the last one combines multiple things and if you miss one you get stuck. I might swallow my pride and look up some walkthroughs to get unstuck one day but I'm not ready to give up, yet.
Also, I'm an EE solving puzzles all day and when I game I want something with less puzzles and more action like KCD2. So sad the last update broke controller support tho.

The witness is one of my favorite games ever because of how damn fun it was figuring out the weird as hell rules for each of the types of puzzles and also how unbelievably they integrated with the environment and made you look at the entire game differently.

It'll probably be a release date for Sokoban or maybe an announcement of the picrel project they started working on a few years ago.

Take your own conclusions:
w := get_current_workspace();
table := get_type_table(w);

entity_type_names: [..] string;

for table {
if it.type != .STRUCT continue;

info_struct := cast(*Type_Info_Struct) it;

if is_subclass_of(it, "Entity") {
array_add(*entity_type_names, info_struct.name);
}
}


Also:
map :: (array: [] $T, f: (T) -> $S) -> [..] S {
results: [..] S;

for array array_add(*results, f(it));

return results;
}


And this one too:
quick_sort(to_sort, x => x.count);


Those are all valid Jai, by the way.

> if it type != .STRUCT continue;
having an implicitly named variable for the for loop looks unconventional, and kinda curse on first glance.
But I would assume that you would be able to declare an explicit name for the current iteration value.

not requiring braces for the if block is nice and I assume that .STRUCT is a member of an enum where the type of enum is inferred because ti's being compared to it.type (which would have the same type). Also very nice.

>cast(*Type_Info_Struct). it;
I hate it so much. Having casts as prefix operators has always sucked. Why is everyone so horny for prefix cast operators? Postfix casts would require much less braces in more complex expressions.

>map
OK I gotta admit that for oneliner is very clean I kinda get the motivation for an impliciti iteration value name.

>quicksort
having both -> and => as part of the langauge also seems kinda weird. Is one for function definitions and the other for anonymous functions?
>>

It's not going to fail you monumental retard. Why is Balatro among the most sold games of 2025? Why are Switch and Switch 2 far more popular than Xbox or PS4/PS5? Casual and puzzle gamers don't care about RTX 5090 graphics, it's all about gameplay.
>>
>>107522066
Balantro is a pick up and play game, you stupid faggot. It's not very time intensive compared to a fucking puzzle game. Also, tell me this game looks like it should've taken 10 years to make when all the assets are literally things you can use in Unity and make right now in a years time.

No one wants the Witness style games anymore. I that nothing to do with the graphics but everything to do with the pretentious nature of these indie "rockstar" devs overselling their ideas and ultimately having very very underwhelming games. That's why we don't have any more Phil Fishs and John Blowjobs: they're schtick got old and everyone saw through their facade.

This is not Balatro. This is an out-of-touch retard thinking it's still 2010 and he can make games that non-existent hipsters and faggots like you would like. It won't be a complete failure, but it won't be anything approaching a true success.
>>
>>107522066
>it's all about gameplay.

I can't believe how some people judge games solely on graphics. They're so used to great looking games with barely a story or gameplay or depth of emotion or anything of substance that they will reject anything that doesn't look polished like some AAA games.
Also, I bet none of the critics have ever created one single engaging puzzle in their entire life. I'm exited to see how far I come this time playing one of his games but I'll probably get stuck again but I still refuse to cheat by looking things up. Like in the olden days where there was no other option than to beat games on your own. I remember stumbling into a secret passage without knowing it was there in an old RPG, I think it was Exile X, Crystal Souls, and it literally blew my mind (and the visuals were minimal but the writing was engaging). Cheating in games is like getting born a Nepo-baby, starting at the finish line. Do it by yourself! The struggle is part of the experience, it's what gives anything meaning. Don't skip to the end, there is nothing there. This is it.

I wish you could talk to GPU firmware directly. Instead you have to talk to a "low-level abstraction" (it's as moronic as it sounds) which grants you none of the benefits and all of the complexity and boilerplate
