It's densha de go, but cute! Thanks, great work - Pico8 is such an amazing tool, I'm consistently amazed at how powerful it is. Curiously I have a bit of an itch for games like densha de go, sometimes you just want to drive a trai

Making a keyboard that has the selling point of "being good on the Apple Watch" seems like a fragile business model to begin with, when Apple's goal should be implementing the best possible keyboard. This has struck custom ke

You can take screenshots of encrypted content and the whole aspect of encryption is basically defeated if the channel itself is open to the public. This might not have been the case here, but there are people that infiltrate channels like t

I doubt it. Publishers will be pushing for this heavily since it makes piracy absolutely impossible as well. "Gamers" won't like it, but AAA publishers always get what they want if it impacts profits - this is the future and

Mind that the amount of QA you ought to have heavily depends on what game you're making - e.g. with a story heavy game, you 100% want give or take 3 weeks on every update for localization checks, or for a MMO you probably want to run n

They also know what they have - an extremely loyal fanbase and a great product that can stand on its own. See: they never put it on sale on Steam.

If it's anything like the EU's other recent regulatory efforts regarding US big tech, it will be horribly bungled and do nothing but make the lives of citizens harder. Article 17, the "upload filter" law, has to be in

That's because they both allow for creation of very segregated sub-groups that don't inherently interact. You won't see a lot of porn on /r/all because Reddit doesn't want you to, even though at least 50% of Re

Steam is available in China, but it's a separate "instance" ran independently of worldwide Steam with a curated list of AAA games, so without the abundance of content and freedom to publish for everyone. Generally if you want

Cloud gaming is where we're headed, arguably Google might have been a little early - but they probably rather wanted to be too early than too late. There's already a few players in this space that are well respected like Nvidia, g
