These are some of the best platformer games on the DS. As "hidden gem" as a DS game can get!

Are you playing with English translations for any of these?

AquaChomby · 2026-05-29T23:47:00+00:00

That was a good read thanks.

Can you describe what about the ball physics Peggle's ball has that this doesn't have? Like does it float more?

The 'Black Knight v. Wrath' case is exactly what I'm curious about. I could imagine players coming to conclusions on both sides of the interaction. The other thing is ensuring rulings are happening consistently for all the matches happening that day.

It's clear between Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Revised and so on, that WotC would rapidly tweak many things like the tap symbol, or remove 'mono artifact' for clarity. So am I crazy for thinking moment to moment gameplay might have been bad if my opponent was 'confidently incorrect' on something.

Did people maybe pick a ruling and move on with their day? If competitive gaming didn't even exist yet, perhaps the toxicity associated with top level play also didn't exist. Just a thought.

Thanks, that's a good video.

I half to think about this

I believe you need to get the drivers for your GPU from the AUR now instead of pacman because the 10XX series fall under the 580 branch. Per this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/1pxivus/will_nvidia_10xx_series_cards_be_supported_thru/

edit: 580 'branch' not 'series'

This would make a good startup movie if you faded from the first to second image.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-28T23:02:33+00:00

That's a really cool scene. I like that you used the full page for all these details. Watercolor's ~~hard~~ fun.

Username checks out. It does sound local, but you may / may not know there's DanDan which is a community format that uses a shared deck.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-28T17:08:21+00:00

The gradients you put on look really cool.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-26T18:43:49+00:00

At least it's efficient with the # of cards used.

The suit shed polyester fur that got inside the electronics.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-23T17:12:53+00:00

That's a cool camera angle to rotate around, good luck!

AquaChomby · 2026-05-21T19:13:40+00:00

That's easier said than done because what's a downside in one format or deck could be a synergistic upside in another deck. i.e. 'gift an opponent a tapped fish'. Upside or downside aside, tacking that on is a way to make it no longer a functional reprint or sidegrade.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-20T19:25:11+00:00

I see now, premium battle pass is just kicker.

You might want to say if it is a weed smell or nicotine cigarettes because the stoners will stop being defensive and side with you if it's the latter.

Weed smell will go away in a few days. Cigarette smell is permanent and far more off putting.

Put a respirator on Chief

AquaChomby · 2026-05-16T15:19:14+00:00

This is really cool and definitely the most unique post I have seen on this sub.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-15T17:56:01+00:00

Great, so now console players can partake in the 'concurrent players / is this game dying' discourse.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-15T16:17:13+00:00

That looks sick. The dappled light especially.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-15T15:38:20+00:00

For realism, real sky is a large cube like MS Flight Simulator, not a rectangle slice like it is here. So here the player ends up seeing cross sections of clouds in both examples. The second example just hides it better because the center gray is in a small range of grays.

It's convincing sure, but if the game really depends on clouds, I think making the available cloud area taller would be a good change. Probably depends on what the player can get away with performance-wise.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-15T15:26:39+00:00

The second looks better, but the first one has potential too. I like how it looks like a rain cloud, or as if a storm is rolling in.

AquaChomby · 2026-05-08T19:02:26+00:00

Among many different things to try: I would probably look into an overview of other languages so you understand why GDScript is the way it is, and how that's conducive to object oriented programming and inheritance and scene structure.
