so many scripts

@eniko Your newfound hobby: tech artist/pipeline dev

[eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@Ronflaix i mean i could do it all manually and lose pointless hours >_>

[ronflaix@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko Yeah but it's fun and satisfying to have a pipeline working!

[srazkvt@tech.lgbt]

@Ronflaix @eniko don't every artist eventually reach that

[0x0961h@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko best part about making your own engine is that you can pipeline the fuck out of those things and feel badass

[eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@0x0961h worst part about making your own engine is having to make the pipeline >_>

[0x0961h@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko bless and a curse, eh

[maia@mastodon.art]

@eniko @0x0961h but you get to make the pipeline! \o/

[eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place]

okay i have the color crumnching aseprite lua script done. it even has a nice live preview and generates only a single undo state

[eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place]

aseprite is a fucking treasure

[sammy@chaos.social]

@eniko awesome! Aseprite ftw

[keyshooter@akko.wtf]

@eniko aseprite my beloved

[hefka@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko Same here

[eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place]

was commenting my code for future reference and it helped me find a subtle bug

yet another reason why comments are helpful: having to explain your code in comments helps you find bugs by having to reason through it
