Unity is really poorly optimized. It's only advantage is it's accessibility.
Learn C++. Logical syntax that makes sense to beginners + a lack of hand holding that forces you to learn core programming concepts makes it the best in my opinion.
Okay so to explain the basics to the non-programmers in the thread. Basically, an executable is a binary file the computer can understand. However, humans write source code using numbers and letters in various languages, such as C++, C#, etc. The computer cannot understand this source code, so we use something called a compiler to turn source code into a binary file (the executable) that the computer can understand.
So when you download the source code for a program off of github, you need to have a compiler that understands that source code and can turn it into a binary. Once you know which language you are working with it should be fairly easy to find a compiler that works.
-Some of the sound is okay, some of it makes my ears bleed. Specifically, the music and the typing sound in the intro are terrible.
-I wasn't able to find any save points. If there aren't any save points, that's a definate flaw and it should be rectified. If there are save points, I think they need to be a bit more frequent so the player doesn't become frustrated over lost progress.
-Platforming mechanics seem very solid to me, flying around with the jetpack is fluid and satisfying.
Curt Schilling was a pitcher before he started 38 studios, he had no experience being a businessman or a video game developer.
Remember how poorly you handled the production of your very first game? Well Curt Schilling did that, just with 125 million dollars.
So the chances of any actually experienced dev making the same mistake is pretty low. Although Chris Roberts is a thing so I'll probably end up eating my words.
Think she was just a sprite that got submitted early in the sites history. Users liked her so much they made her the site mascot.
Yeah it's windows exclusive. You could probably run it in wine with okay performance though.
I'll probably participate in this.
1. What platform.
2. Payed or no?

What's this being programmed in? What engine/APIs are you planning on using? Are you paying?

OH NO PLEASE. There's absolutely no need for that.
Although if people want to upload politicized art I don't give a shit. But there's literally no reason to start political debates on a site like this.
