My policy for this is to simply lock the doors and hide for an hour if my network traffic averages over 2 Mbps for 5 minutes. I would also send myself an email. So far this has never happened.

It has mutated quite a lot since I started... I'm taking the positions of everyone's mouse and feeding them to Fortune's sweep line algorithm to make Voronoi diagrams. I've made it look like you are a cell squeezing through layers of tissue

I know this is not self promotion, and it's not shameless, but even if it was, I would up-vote you if I liked the link and it looked like hard work. How did self promotion ever come to be something to be ashamed of anyways?

This is exactly what I needed! The canvas is too damn slow, and open GL is too confusing and close to the metal. I have been putting off my game for over 3 months because I knew I would have to write this first, now I don't! Thanks!
