One of my first year projects was to create a game in 10 weeks using MonoGame. My group decided to continue work after the semester and publish it on itch. It was the first game any of us made, and you can download it for free: cajunwildcat.itch.io/life-fi…
I had to explain to a friend last night that when you use the boxcast method in unity physics, the LayerMask value is not equal to the layer number unity shows in the inspector but instead is equal to 2^ that number and it just made me think "why was it designed this way"

At least from what I understand, its a cool optimization thing where physics LayerMask is just this really int value and it only have to check one bit to know if it has to check against any given layer, however from a user experience point of view it sucks.

I don't see why the physics system just doesn't use the inspector layer number as the parameter and under the hood apply the bit shifting. This just seems like a pointlessly huge pain point for beginners
please behold the trailer for Wish You Were Here, a VN by @seamus_ly and me 😳!!

I meant to tweet updates as development progressed... but that didn't happen. I had the pleasure of working as co-programmer with @seamslyy. Check @CartomancyGame this fall!
