I guess I belong to the "urban legend" category then. I never introduced Boost into my projects, but when one of the co-developers on an open source project where I am the lead (FlameRobin.org) said it would be useful, and explain

There was a blue box on the right side saying "Have you clicked the button?" on most subreddits I read on April 1st.

You're wrong. I wrote at least 4 Makefiles from scratch in the last 10 years. :)

Shapes and colors (independent of each other) can be matched horizontally and vertically. Maybe I should somehow indicate when they are "locked" and that would be enough. Actually it's a one-off puzzle to unlock a door to ano

I see. I guess I need to work on this, make the symbols more distinct or something. You only need to align colors and symbols in either rows or columns, so there's multiple solutions. Great feedback. Thanks.

Actually I fear that other players might feel the same. The rest of the game is 2D puzzle platformer which is a completely different type of puzzle game, so I'm considering to make the door puzzles optional and not blocking. Thanks.

There's no parity error. If it seemed that you only had to switch places of two pieces to solve it, then you merely reached the hard part. :)

Ah, those were the days. I learned Assembly on A500. You would just load an image into memory, tell the video card to point to that location and it got shown on the screen. I recall writing a simple program to extract images from games. Aft

Correction. All images are reversed.

The main problem on Android for me is that there's absolutely no way to download a file. Chrome has Save Link As option for links, but Firefox does not. It's interesting that you can still download videos if you let them play and

I'm usually wary when I see new accounts voting stuff up, but this one is done really well. Bookmarked.

I didn't downvote you, but I assume why it happened: What you wrote is correct, but does not answer the question.

Depends on your definition of "great". If you are really good at it there are a lot of things that might give you prolonged periods of stress. I'd pick a comparatively more boring career any time. Things that can happen: - yo

Agreed. The setting to turn that off permanently is really only a couple of clicks away. "Grown-ups" know how to find it easily. Others are better off not being able to do it without understanding how it works.

From my 10+ years of experience: if you want contributors, build something that people really need, that is not available on the market. Build it just enough to solve the main problem it should. Make it really open and easy to contribute. P

The only consistent thing about PHP is its inconsistency ;) Well, at least you know what you're getting into. It's not like they promise otherwise anywhere.

Two very basic tips for vi: You can use slash(/) and question mark(?) to search for text (forward and backward) in vi. It's useful to know these, because they also work with less(1). If you are Windows user and used to press Ctrl+

I was inspired by Braid, Fez and Limbo to create a puzzle platformer myself because I really enjoyed playing such games and there aren't many challenging games of that type around. I started developing about 5 months ago, learned how t
