The price has crept up with the paid expansions, but holy shit do NOT sleep on the Castlevania one. It doubles the base game content, and fits in great.

Everyone was too concerned the AI would do it and wasn’t looking close enough at the C-Suite Execs.

It sucked to have bought into the kickstarter and financed the project, and then see the product on the shelves at Target while I was still waiting on mine to be delivered.

Shit, I didn’t realize it got that bad. I’m honestly surprised I didn’t hear more rage about that online at the time.

Looks like the dev’s Ko-Fi is the official source for the download: https://ko-fi.com/nemo622

No offense, but I’m way more interested in this Crystal styled Emerald romhack itself than whatever drama is happening around it.

Although I am sad to hear that yet another creator has been badgered out of enjoying their work. That sucks.

Without any info on how they compile the “Top 50 viral” list, I’m not sure how significant this really is.

Never heard of that chart before, so this feels like it was just an easy article for click farming.

I’m still hoping that someday 1 and 2 will get decomps so fans can try their hand at it.

There’s a full decomp of it that should be W11 compatible, if you want the original experience.

Windows XP game (for the resources the decomp needs): https://archive.org/details/3-d-pinball-for-windows.-7z

They may not want to fully wipe sda, there’s a mounted partition- sda4

Yes, that’s something we all should be doing, but that won’t stop this from effecting you.

Google is trying to make a change so that all apps will have to have their creator show their identity to Google so they can be installed. This specifically applies to sideloaded apks. That means it applies to everything from sketchy random apks, to github, to F-Droid.

There’s no way to work around it (if it even can be) until Google rolls it out so custom ROMs can reverse engineer it to offer an option to disable.

Even if it can be disabled on the phone’s end, that now cuts your potential userbase so dramatically that it’s going to gut the open source software scene on android. Either give in to Google (so goodbye high school student devs, people from not ok countries, or people making shit Google doesn’t like), or enjoy your potential userbase of maybe a few thousand people who have the custom rom(s) with a workaround, resulting in an actual userbase of maybe one hundred.

Oh no, real egg-like

Isn’t the pebble watch getting a re-release? Might be neat to tinker with. There’s also a conversion kit thing for one of the classic digital casio watches. Both are tinkering friendly and open source.

Dead or Alive is the name of a videogame series, not talking about his status.

Surely you mean when that happened to one developer, once. Or did I somehow miss stories about other occurrences?

The fuck is Lake Isabella and why is this written like an ad? This might make sense if you were writing about the setting of a famous or popular game, but even then it would be a stretch.

When you add a picture to the post the way you did, it eats the link. Here it is for anyone looking: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2195910/Darkenstein_3D/

Something to remember is that CTR came out three years later than MK64. That was a lot of time for that generation of games.

That said, I remember not liking CTR as a kid because while it had more depth, the friend who had it had put a ton of time into the campaign so I had no chance of keeping up with him trying to pick it up casually through the occasional multiplayer match.

Can we stop trying to make everything into a marketable product for 5 fucking minutes?

Who asked for this?

You might like Mullet MadJack too, if you like frantic shooters with a “keep killing or die” element.

Completely different style, and no customization that I know of, it’s 90’s cyberpunk anime styled. Each level you have ten seconds until your heart stops. Each kill gets you more time, and flashier kills like melee finishers get you more, as in universe you’re doing some sort of livestream death game. At the end of each short level, in roguelike fashion, you get to pick one of a few randomly selected upgrades/powerups.

Look up some footage on youtube, it’s a lot cooler in motion than words can cover. But it’s definitely one to play with mouse and keyboard so you can do twitch movements fast.

In short it’s hard to do right.

It would have to be in a way that doesn’t chain you to one central identification server that could ban everyone, but also still handles moderation actions properly.

People would probably also want their identity to be portable (movable to other source instances) which will mean different things to different fediverse services in terms of what would move, and things like handling username collisions. We can’t even lift and shift between instances of the same service yet, whete it should be a simple one to one.

Most of all, a huge part of the conceptual point of the fediverse is that you should be able to interact with the rest of it from any point inside it (with exceptions for intentional defederation between some servers). On a conceptual level, you shouldn’t need to create a login for mastodon when you can post to mastodon from lemmy, and vice versa. You create your login on the type of fediverse system you want the interface of, on a server instance you agree with the moderation policies of, and then you interact with whatever you want from there.

In practice it’s not so simple, but that’s largely seen by the various devs as a software interoperability thing, not a sort of single sign on identity thing.

He and his family were caught doing pretty serious charity fraud, iirc, amd he kept throwing out completely absurd excuses rather than owning up to it.

Entirely wrong youtuber. Sorry.
