I had their follow up game Capture the Flag on my Atari 800. Same engine, but slightly upgraded graphics. Fun game! https://moegamer.net/2019/03/05/atari-a-to-z-capture-the-fla...

This is my attempt at a straight-up Star Wars one: http://lmnopc.com/mf/ I made this dumb thing like seven years ago based on a CSS starfield codepen that was floating around: https://codepen.io/noahblo

Screw that web site. Nags you to turn off your content blocker, and as soon as you do a giant full-phone height banner ad is the first thing you see, then a few seconds later a full-screen modal pop up appears. GTFO.

Load times is absolutely the primary reason I quit playing.

I loved the early Internet, and initially stoked when more and more people got onto it. I thought we'd enter an enlightened age of education and everyone could live up to their potential. Obviously, that's not what happened at all

If the same folks who believe that building a bulletproof Parler is a good idea think I'm a moron, I think I'm in a pretty good position morally.

Parler is a shit hole, and at this point I’m not sure we need another social network anything. The major ones do a lousy job of policing fake news and misinformation, and from your tone it sounds like you support that garbage. I’m pretty su

Yeah. I have a "launch" Pro, and it's been noisy as heck since day one. haha As others have said, they fixed it in later revisions of the hardware. :)

I can't imagine how it could be improved upon... When my PS4 Pro is playing stuff like TLOU2, it sounds like it's going to start hovering off my TV cabinet.

Haha Gunship was totally the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the headline. What a great game that was. :)

Front- and back-end are very different things. I’ve worked with some brilliant engineers who couldn’t make a serviceable UI to save their lives, never mind the intricacies of overall user experience. I’ll balk at UI/UX people who can’t

Watch the demo at the beginning of the game — you don’t want to click on the ball as your pivot point for the swing — use the upper right part of the window. That’s part of the reason I made the demo — to show the best place to start your

I went from knowing nothing about Phaser to a working game in about two weeks for a game jam earlier this year. Really enjoyed working with it. http://www.lmnopc.com/air-sea-golf/ The jam was "genre shift",

Oh I’m aware. I wanted those insane frame rates. I lived in bumfuck Pennsylvania where high speed Internet wasn’t going to arrive for a decade, so I wanted something to make the game cooler. Haha

I had the original 3dfx card just to play Quake, but there were a number of things that still impressed me about Goldeneye. - It ran on a console and not a $1000 PC. - The game managed to go beyond what had been done in Doom and Quake, and

I love PSP. It was one of the few applications worth the money the author charged for it. Up until recently I was using PSP5 for all of my taster image editing, but I reinstalled my OS drive and I don’t know where I stashed my setup.exe for

I love Spotify, but it bugs me that I can't use Siri to launch music from it. It's the only thing Apple Music has over Spotify imo.

I was going to say - obviously the author of this post hasn't looked for Minecraft mods, because there the problem is far worse.

I passed on ordering it. Figured I could grab Airplane! on DVD just about anywhere. lol

Meanwhile, the DVD I attempted to order this morning using Prime's two-day-shipping delivery date was estimated to be Tuesday (five days away). I get delivery issues, but the item was advertised by being sold by Amazon using Prime.

The Rap Genius site is a clever idea, but the interesting and insightful annotations are completely drowned out by the lousy comments and dumb pictures people decided to upload for base topics like money, or someone's appearance.

Legend of Dungeon was released a few months ago after a successful Kickstarter using a similar technique for lighting its 2d sprites. http://robotloveskitty.tumblr.com/post/33164532086/legend-of... Unity just put

It's probably been down for weeks and this is the first anyone's noticed.
