@qoouep @jenistyping comes in hot, starts initiatives, re-traces the steps of and learns all the lessons the existing team learned over the previous year, loses momentum, arrives at the same dead-end they were hired to fix, moves on to another struggling company (maybe with a bump in title)

learning how to use @godotengine nav meshes & nav agents to add evil spider enemies. still figuring out exactly what this game is! there aren't any adventure old-school-zelda-like games built specifically for Vision Pro yet, so that's the general direction.

Fish Chat is real! It's a silly game where you control your fish by tilting your head and open your mouth to eat falling food. I'll be hanging out in here for the next hour or so - if you have a Vision Pro, come say hi.

Itโ€™s another chill puzzle game, and itโ€™s lovely. Thereโ€™s a cute little blue character you can poke. 10/10 recommend trying the free puzzle.

Woke up this morning thinking about voice interfaces... I never use them. Most common way I've seen other people use them is, "Alexa, set a timer for 10 minutes". Does anyone on here do more complicated stuff with voice? I know some people like to dictate text messages.

As a dev, excited to see the floating joystick pattern from iOS works great! Will play more :)

1) I did two 3D puzzles in @PuzzlingPlaces last night on my couch. Gave me that "one more piece" puzzle feeling, and I left the experience feeling chilled out. Great example of an app that uses the native spatial gestures well - placing pieces feels like magic. 10/10 recommend.
