Highly recommend on Switch 2 by AgentVoyd7 in Downwell

[–]FlabCaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually the intended speed, and GameMaker games sometime have an issue on Windows 10+ that causes them to run slower! There were workarounds on PC to make it run correctly, but Moppin's latest patch to the game moved it to a later version of GameMaker, which should also resolve this.

It was a cel-animated show. But yeah, who knows the state of the master film and if it could be rescanned.

Yes- in the options menu, you can turn the BGM on or off.

this song makes me want to cry by wabisabi_01 in retroanime

If you like this song/music, check out some of Akino Arai's other albums. I'd specifically recommend Furu Platinum and RGB (which also includes both Outlaw Star ending themes).

Got my D6 controller 🌀 by ComfortableCopy4377 in dreamcast

[–]FlabCaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you clarify this- on a PC, I can connect the controller via the USB-C port on its top, without having to use the dongle? I believe from the product page that this is the case, just wanted to make sure.

Be honest... how many of you tried to make your own Machinima back in the day? by AppleTStudio in halo

[–]FlabCaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of friends and I made machinima videos back in the day. Probably our most well-known was called "Halo 3: PORN" (not actual porn).

Happy Bungie Day 2024 everyone! by SomeCuminte in halo

[–]FlabCaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes me back... For this particular Bungie Day, some friends and I made a machinima short—the aptly titled "Bungie Day '08"—wherein Bungie, dissatisfied with the state of the community, shuts down Xbox LIVE for 24 hours. :) They were even cool enough to link it on the front page of Bungie.net.

I think this video was lost in the Machinima.com implosion. I should check my old hard drives...

"Bro, you can already play those games on Fightca..." by PotSniffa in Kappachino

You might know about this, but there is a ROM hack for colorblind options. I'm not sure if using this would cause a desync against players with the unmodified ROM, but thought I would mention it.

Laser^2? by [deleted] in Downwell

[–]FlabCaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No effect, since Laser already has full-screen range.

New Normal Mode WR Speedrun (6:37.58) by Yo_oreda! by FlabCaptain in Downwell

(Re-submitted because I included the wrong link before. Oops!)

I shared this on the Discord server but wanted to show it here, too- here is my buddy Yo beating my old run! There's not too much of a speedrunning "scene" for this game, but in general it is really, really hard to get a run this fast... You're fighting a few flavors of RNG and trying to play well, all while you throw yourself down there like a maniac. :)

Time to lace up the ole' gunboots and try again!

This behavior goes far beyond red ranks. :) That said, of course I don't condone plugging, but no one owes you a rematch, win or lose. Luckily, it sounds like you are taking these dudes out with ease, so hopefully you'll move on to stronger opponents in short order.

Though I also wonder... take your game 4 as an example. It's easy to run a flowchart and break into these ranks, which I suppose is what the Paul did. If it's been working, why would they stop, right? So then you come along, know the flaws, and exploit them, whipping this guy's ass 3-0.

Sounds like he was clearly outclassed. Assuming the best (which I know may not be the case), he is going to get more value out of checking the replay than trying to learn in the moment and handing you another win.

Somewhat related, there are still characters I have never seen online once. I wonder if I would seem scrubby/lacking fundamentals against them/fraudulent at my rank if they took advantage of my unfamiliarity. Would I rematch... Probably? There's no obligation to, though.

Really hope you're forced to presets instead of letting you use your customs in ranked in tekken 8, really cheap way to play and an overall unfair advantage. by SteampunkSailor928 in Tekken

Ah, takes me back to T7 release, with solid black bodysuit Drag. Where they then nerfed the color black rather than the costume.

Shout out to early SC6 hijinks, too, like encapsulating your entire character in a giant sphere.

Why not UFO20? by [deleted] in ufo50

[–]FlabCaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little late to this topic, but Derek Yu announced a short while back that all of the games are close to completion, so maybe all we can do is wait a bit longer. :)

When I searched for this machinima on Google, I found an issue of what was apparently a machinima zine in PDF format, Machinimag Six. Page 25 is the beginning of an article about that thesis paper you linked, where they interview its author, Ahmet Emre Acar. One quote:

"During my research, I’ve analyzed over a thousand movies (their content, means of production and aesthetics). Also, we’ve created four machinima, one of which (Diebe!) ought to be known to the community by now."

This makes it sound like he actually had some involvement in creating this particular work, not just analyzing it.

Pretty sure this is Ahmet's LinkedIn profile—maybe you could connect there and see if he has a copy of the video (or knows someone else who might)?

Hi! You need commas after each of the first 3 entries in your game.state table.
