Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - fantanoice - Sep 6th, 2018

Hi, I'm 'Fanta No Ice' but you can call me 'Fanta' if you like. I'm a game developer from Australia and have recently been dipping my feet into streaming.

I'm a big Nintendo fan but have the other consoles as well. I recently built my first computer so been PC gaming as well. Been loving Fortnite as of late.

Ask me anything I s'pose? Tongue

Welcome to the forum, Fanta! Here I thought you were called 'Fanta Noice' at first. Since I just used that word for a variant on nice.

Fanta No Ice is good to.

I take it you like Fanta. Surely, or the name is a ruse. Fanta used to be one of my favourite drinks, although I don't drink much fizzy anymore. Although I'm not completely against a select few to have on rare ocassion.

You're interested in streaming? Sweet. What kind of games would you be thinking of streaming?

Also a game developer?! Even more sweetness.

RE: Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - fantanoice - Sep 6th, 2018

Yeah it gets misread a lot. I used to use underscores but got lazy and dropped them entirely. :b Ironically I don't like the drink much these days but I've had this name for so long that I can't give it up now. Tongue

Right now I'm streaming a Nuzlocke run of Pokémon Crystal Clear. It's a ROMHack that turns Crystal into an Open World game. Also got some Mario Kart and 1080 Avalanche Time Trials. Maybe Fortnite if I could start winning some of them but that's basically a meme at this point. Tongue

I really like Overwatch as well but don't know if I want to stream it.

Could always do your name as FantaNoIce. Distinguishes the parts without extra characters. Tongue

Overwatch is a neat game, although it's been a few months since I played it last (I don't count the one match I played a week ago). Who're your favourite characters? Smile

RE: Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - Dragon Lord - Sep 7th, 2018

I am disappointed in myself that I've known you on forums for many years, at many different forums, but it took reading your post just now to realize that your name is "Fanta no ice." I've always tried to figure out how your name would be pronounced. I guess I should have taken a few seconds to look at your name a little closer over the years.

Anyways, welcome to the new UG. Hope you have a good time here.

As a Game Dev I would assume they know about CamelCase but rejected the blessedWord in favor of the blasphemous underscore_case. Whistle

Classic orange. Purple is nice too.

I've played so many games ahhh. Banjo Kazooie is the one I can keep going back to and loving forever. Virtue's Last Reward gave me the longest-lasting thoughts and feels. So, one of them.

I don't want to deal with case sensitive usernames. Tongue

I use it for my display name on Twitch but people still read it wrong. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

D.Va, Lucio, Symmetra, Sombra, Mercy, Mei

The correct answer is whatever style the codebase uses Wink

. I personally like lowerCamelCase for variables with _lowerCamelCase for class variables.

What flavor is purple? In my area we just started to get some non orange flavors a few years ago.

RE: Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - fantanoice - Sep 7th, 2018

Purple is grape

RE: Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - lp0 on fire - Sep 7th, 2018

Ew Grape.... Whistle

How long have you been in game development?

RE: Wanna Fanta, Don't You Wanna? - fantanoice - Sep 7th, 2018

About 3.5 years professionally. I'm unemployed at the moment though because of stuff out of my control.

Been using the spare time to build up my Twitch before contacting an old employer that I left on good terms with.

Ouch sorry to hear that, I am on the same boat as you as far as jobs. <_<

Only the previous employer I left on good terms with....is one I never want to return to.

Good luck Fantanoice!

Judging by your name, if you order a drink you get it with no ice. Is this correct? Tongue

(I get called weird and freak all the time for that... well at my last job by my coworkers (good nature jabbing it was) Meh

)

Thanks for the good wishes.

Yeah I'll typically order no ice. Get more drink that way.
