May I introduce the VHDL STD library where you can set an output to “don’t care”:

Wikipedia IEEE-1164

As an embedded electronics engineer discovering VHDL was a blast and a mindfuck!

Hell yeah! Ocean eleven was a remake of an apparently not so good movie, and the movie is still one of my favourite heist movie, even the whole trilogy!

Started playing War Thunder again after not playing for more than 5 years, surprisingly having fun even when loosing, expecting the grind to wear me down soon tho.

One thing that is definitely not computer related, so probably not a good advice, is to not design a video game, but a card game or boardgame.

That can take month (hell, mine has been in the works for a couple years now), but you get to learn to design mechanics, systems, rules, crappy placeholder art, and so many things, which can then be used latter as experience for game design.

I’d recommend doing a simple card game that people can print with paper (Print n Play games are quite common on the Internet).

Take a mechanic, mood, or simple idea:

• A game where player are together trying to solve a murder mystery (cards with plots, Clues, interrogation, maybe something inspired by Clues but updated,…).
• a game where player compete to build a small fortified city, and then send armies to each other to pillage resources and money.

Man I gotta re-read the whole Foundation again!
