Daddy needs a new pair of RAM!

edit: the fps are way better in smaller terminal windows with lower character count but then it's hard to make out the dice. D:

    My suggestion is do it. Its a cool project, and clearly there is interest from others who could contribute to the project by suggestions, bug fixing, or general collaboration, helping you learn. Just add some kind of disclaimer in the project that its not ready yet, and that youre still learning and it should be fine.

    I hope you change your mind.

    Most people care about features, not the implementation.

    Those who dislike your code are probably going to generally dislike others’ code anyways, so in a sense they don’t even need to see your code to already disapprove of it 🤷‍♀️

    Well, you guys are making some p good points. I'll probably end up sharing it, but'll give it a clean up, try to fix some bugs and improve my comments before posting it publicly. For now whoever really wants it (including you) can just ask and I'll dm it, understanding it will be a hard read and still has bugs.

    The only way to do it is to do it - me, 2026

    Nah, but seriously, that insecurity is a disease that will actually make you produce embarrassing code. As soon as you feel confidence feedback take off, you will paint the functions brilliant once you de-neuter your inner codebeast. It wants to fuck. Let it.

  • Haha there is no shame in shell code, it’s already monstrous to start!

    I’ve written things in shell that would look sooo nice and concise in any other language, but it became a Cthulu-ass demigorgon so quick in shell! Have no fear, fear is the mind killer, the little death!

    When I opened the code I immediately scrolled to the bottom to see how many lines, and hell yeah. I read through it and I'm horrified, but I'm even more horrified it works. This is truly an chievement

    Here it is running over SSH https://files.catbox.moe/qkwd4q.mp4 what more could I ask for, thank you for making this insane thing and sharing it!

    holy shit, I'm so flattered! Thank you for your kind support and encouragement!

    It's crazy that it looks okaish right? quaternions, dude. I have implemented them in 3 projects and still have no fucking idea how they work.

    Also, you can run it in --quality low if you're struggling with framerate. :)

    It's insane how many features this has for being insane in of itself!

    Edit: that was running on anemic "1 core" (1 very shared core) VPS, bumping it up to 4, hooboy do those dice fly

    nice! I'm still working on and have kept adding features. the encouragement was really motivating, so now I'm finishing multi-dice rolls that later add the result of all rolls.

    If you want an updated version later on, would be glad to share w you. :)
