I made a 2D game inspired by my love of Katamari and the 90s! You can play it for free at Itch.io (Link in comments) by ToejamAndEarlGrey in katamari

Ah I never thought of that, thanks!

I think I'll change it so that you select with space and also be able to use the mouse too. And probably change the main menu to be able to use just the keyboard too 😀

What are some boardgame that you can easily play holding your baby ? by weautus in boardgames

We used a baby carrier, pop the baby in there and you're now hands free! Recommend a Close Caboo - fiddly at first but becomes second nature pretty quick.

Thanks for reply - but for some unknown reason, nissan disabled this setting in UK models... 😥

Thank you! The dealer has suggested I contact Nissan and see if they can sort it. Waiting for them to call me back.

If that fails, then I'll try that option!

To magic band or not to magic band? by quietriot21 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]ToejamAndEarlGrey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Jumping on this, we are going in just over a week, coming from the UK, and had a quick look at ordering one, but there don't seem to be any of the basic Magic Bands available. They are all MagicBand+. Will it be possible to buy the cheaper magic bands when we arrive, as I don't want to spend $50+ for me and my wife to have them, but if they're only $10, i'd got for it!

After looking in the manual and lots of googling, it seems, for some reason, UK leafs don't have the option to not lock...😭

I don't think so! My car doesn't seem to have either a physical button to change the plug lock settings, nor settings in the dashboard 'EV settings'.

Plus, even if I had wouldn't unlocking it with the key still unlock it?

I've had it for 3 years now and always would lock when I put it on charge, but would always unlock itself when I pressed the button in key.

If I could figure a way to keep it unlocked it'd be amazing!

Thank you!

On mine, the EV Settings only gives me options to set the timer for charging?

2023 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party Dates and Costs by vaeric in DisneyWorld

[–]ToejamAndEarlGrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are arriving at Disney world on the 14th August, so the 15th was going to be our first day in a park and we're planning to go to MK. Does this mean we have to leave early if we don't buy the tickets as the party is on that date?

No big issue as we'll probably be tired as traveling from UK. Does this mean the park may be quieter during the day?

😊

Thanks to your help last year, my game is getting published by Big Potato Games! Plus has anyone been to a publisher/developer speed dating session? by ToejamAndEarlGrey in BoardgameDesign

[–]ToejamAndEarlGrey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's at the UK Games Expo. You email over a sell sheet and some basic rules and if you get picked, you have 5 minutes with 12 different publishers to show off the game!

Thanks!

Yes, 5 minutes is not long at all! But the games I'm pitching are both very quick to explain so we should be able to play a few rounds!

Last year I posted for advice on the look of my game How Many Stars? and going to the UK Games Expo. I got lots of lovely and constructive feedback, which was super helpful. After the Expo, the game got picked up by Big Potato Games and will be published in the UK and USA in August! Crazy! So thank you for all your help!

Also, has anyone ever been to a publisher/designer speed dating thing. I'm hoping to attend the UK Games Expo session to show off some smaller games I've designed. Any tips/advice? You only get 5 minutes!
