The problem with the ending wasn't only the outcome (which, IMO, the DCL ending still wasn't enough). It was mainly the the execution. The "press the button" ending was a travesty to what was advertised by the three game

This is something I've been postponing for a long time. I'm mostly delaying it for the "dread" of having to pick and learn a GUI library. A quick and dirty content agnostic grid based level editor. When making some gam

What I don't understand is that the author IS a gamer. And a designer. She probably knows a lot about games. She can help her friends sift throught the sea of games and find some that appeal to them.

The parent said the oposite. He said that voting for hillary is the lesser evil. What is implied is that Hillary is _not_ good. It's just less bad.
