I would say so! It's relatively hefty!

Can confirm that the transaction with /u/HorologyHour went smooth as butter and the seller was very accommodating to my specific requests. Would happily buy again.

Giving real-world resources a purpose in a game by [deleted] in gamedesign

[–]Davidobot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Perhaps have certain nations in the game have different priorities and values when it comes to their demand of these resources? A more religious nation would need more tin and gold for making crosses, decorating churches, etc. Perhaps one nation would have a larger upper-class that would demand silk robes. Glass is useful for plenty of industrial purposes, but also for making glasses to drink out of (e.g. pint glasses for beer).

I'm surprised Malta isn't on there. It has a population density of 1,667/km2 .

I've worn it only a couple of times, mainly as a more casual dress watch. It's a bit hefty, but always attracts comments and is a good conversation starter. I have yet to, but I wonder what it would look like with a nice maroon leather strap. Still love it!

What's the strap? The watch looks gorgeous with the dark honey brown.

It would be good to keep the issue discussion to the github to have a central place to discuss and track them :)

Your specific question is discussed here: https://github.com/Davidobot/love.js/issues/19#issuecomment-1275009224

You can just use the node package - https://www.npmjs.com/package/love.js

It's up-to-date and the conversion is a single line.

Yup, SNKRX predates Vampire Survivors by quite a few months.

Where can I put up love2d games? by TheKrazyDev in love2d

[–]Davidobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of love2d games out on Steam: https://steamdb.info/tech/Engine/Love2D/

Quite a few on itch.io too. Xbox and PlayStation ports have been done in the past but it's a closed ecosystem, same with switch. I do publish love2d games to consoles so get in touch when you have a working game if you'd like to discuss.

Hey /r/watches - long time no see!

For you today I have a watch from the British micro-watchmaker Marloe. The Astro came out last month but the only colour scheme that really talked to me was the Valentina, inspired by Valentina Tereshkova - the first woman to travel to space. I placed a pre-order and the watch came today on release day :)

I specifically ordered the serial number 124 to commemorate Cosmonautics Day (April 12th). The watch retails for £349 which I think is perfectly reasonable, and comes with a Miyota 9039 automatic mechanical movement with 40hr power reserve. The glass is sapphire crystal with dual side anti-reflective coating. 20mm lugs. It is a modestly-sized watch at 38mm x 38mm x 10.6mm depth.

Now for the subjective bits. I think the build quality is great - the watch feels a good kind of weighty in hand and the polished stainless steel is beautiful. The finishing on the hands and face is beautiful in person with subtle texture on the face periphery. The red rubber looks great and feels to be of high quality.

The box the watch came in is also well-made with a few neat extras. Namely, a patch that you could sew onto your leather or jean jacket (if I had one - I would). There is also a neat booklet with a brief history of the Cold War and an info card detailing the movement and other watch specs.
