DevLog Coding rabbit hole

[Rich]

So it all started when I need a font for a new game, so obviously I wrote a font editor, which then also needed a GUI engine, which lead me to shaders and fonts.

The original game only took a week to write, 6 months later I'm now getting a font in my game.

A friend at work described it as the Malcolm-in-the-middle-light-bulb moment

Yup, been there and still not out of that hole.

Adding to this, this is a reason to enhance CX.

Same here.
Trying to think of a new structure for function/methods documentation got me into how it could be implemented - into markdown - into makedocs. Once there you'll never get out again

Even though I have shader ideas for the next version of fontdu, I've decided to leave it for a while and actually make a game for a change ;-)

 

[Rich]

But first, maybe I'll do pull down boxes in GUI Class coz I'll need them at some point ;-)

 

[MikeHart]

There is always something. I am looking into sokol. So i said, custom targets would helpful. And there i went. Lol

Glad it's not just me then
