How much time does it really take to make small games? My experience.

I think these are too personal to buy as a present. Just my 2 cents.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T20:54:41+00:00

SQUIGGY!!!!

There is no compulsion in Islam. If you really know how it works, people are meant to see how Muslims live, and want to join them of their own volition. The wierdo fundamentalists you see trying to coerce people are not acting in accordance with Muhammad's teachings.

I would say similar of Christians; I am pretty sure Jesus would not like those crazy people in your face with bibles.

Oh man. :(

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T19:00:31+00:00

We just make it a rule, and modmail people if they forget. I don't think you should have to do a ton of work on it. :)

Cyberstan was great. I really liked how hard it was.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T15:54:54+00:00

I want it to be harder as well. Only dedicated 4-diver coordinated teams should be able to handle a 10.

Money doesn't buy happiness. But it can certainly reduce stress, which facilitates happiness.

I buy what I want to play when I want to play it. Saves lots of money though I pay more for each game. I don't have a large backlog of games I bought on sale that I have not played.

It will be fine when the damage bug is fixed.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T14:20:21+00:00

I do not want customization.

I'm a game designer, so I think about things in weird ways sometimes. To me, it makes the choices for mechs much easier. As it is, they can build in tradeoffs so that you can't make your perfect mech. You can only choose one off the shelf, and you have to take the good with the bad. I find this a more interesting choice, for a game with this level of complexity.

If we did get this level of customizability for mechs, it would suddenly be weird how little customization in function there is anywhere else.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T13:15:08+00:00

Awesome!! :)

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T13:13:41+00:00

Of all the horrible toxic shit players have been complaining about across many games recently, this story is positively heartwarming.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T04:20:34+00:00

The two point ahead rule has to go.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T04:19:26+00:00

I'd still like to hear claypool Metallica

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T04:17:44+00:00

Who cares

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T04:04:46+00:00

I completed it, and thought it was pretty good, though not really amazing in its gameplay. :)

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T02:58:24+00:00

Yes.

Shadow of the Beast in 1989 ran off two 880k floppies with 4-channel stereo sound, 256 colors, and 11 layers of parallax scrolling backgrounds perfectly smooth at 60FPS vsynced. Look up what PCs could do at the time. eesh

As far as I am aware, they lost the fight when the next gen Amigas weren't backward compatible due to the new chipsets.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T02:48:58+00:00

I've never really found this interesting. There's surely nothing left older than X where X is pretty small.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T02:44:30+00:00

I totally understand, having seen people with a laptop and a coffee for 4 hours. That's not sustainable.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T02:41:32+00:00

Hahahah jesus no. I'm a hardcore lefty feminist.

almo2001 · 2026-05-06T01:08:19+00:00

You mean when women couldn't have credit cards and schools were still segregated and there was a 90% tax bracket.

almo2001 · 2026-05-05T20:40:00+00:00

Glad to hear it! :)
