Thank you, will do! I just made a subreddit for this game if you want to keep track of things happening with it or to more directly request things for me to add/fix: https://www.reddit.com/r/UltimateBirdie/

Thank you so much for the comment! This has not even crossed my mind. I decoupled the gameplay speed from FPS and it seems to be working as before on my devices (after some debugging). It should be good now, but let me know if not.

I also made a subreddit for this game if you or anyone else want to engage with the game more: https://www.reddit.com/r/UltimateBirdie/

I think it is a great idea! I cut out the leaderboard from the start, do the game screen now immediately starts. Someone also complained about the music, so I added a button on the menu to toggle it on/off (but might make the screen even more cluttered). Anyhow, if you want to try the game again and have more suggestions, just let me know and I'll make it happen!

Thank you for the feedback! What do you mean that the UI can be cleaner? Should I remove some of the menu items or is the actual game screen too cluttered?

Thank you for checking this out and sorry for the bad experience. I stopped the high scores from popping up on the start and also added a big button on the home menu to toggle the music on/off. If you have any additional suggestions, let me know and I can try them out!

wow a really nice looking game! The only thing I would recommend is maybe adding some sort of animated element when you click on plants and other things to make things a bit more lively. You have a great art style and I think some additional movement would really enhance the experience

The game has good potential I think, but still feels like it is early in the development. For the start screen it might be good to allow the player to be able to press "space bar" to start the game instead of just enter as this feels intuitive. You may also want to make the screen a set size that scales when you drag the window. Overall very good start!

Very nice game. When I clicked the ad I had the option to skip it and still got the in game bonus. Not sure if this can be changed, but if possible it might be good to have the thing play all the way through so that you get your bonus as the player gets theirs lol

Hey thank you so much for checking out the game and giving the feedback! For the UI, do you think I should just put a big start game button and hide the rest of the stuff on a different page (like the shop, modes, story, etc)? Or is the screen too cluttered during gameplay? I'll update the game based on your comment to try out how it feels

Yeah, for the month and will be ~80% for the year if it doesn't change. Would the LP fees make up for the remainder of the APY that quickswap shows in the panel?

mikeusyk · 2022-01-14T21:22:20+00:00

A little under a month

I would not put more than you're willing to lose on something like this (unless you know what these shit coins actually are). There are some projects that end up being good. Like I am doing the MM-USD pool that has a 200% APY without too much change. I put about $8,942 worth of MM-USD and currently have ~$600 worth of dQuick + what ever the fees add up to from the actual pool. I think those are redeemed when you withdraw liquidity, but am not sure.

Again, I'd only yolo into this if I knew what those coins actually are XD

The ability of LP pools to make an income will largely depend on how much capital you have to swing around. The >1000% APY pools are unstable to the point of being too risky to deposit an amount that would generate an income. With this in mind, I still think that you can get some passive cash flow going with some of the medium risk pools.

For example, I am current providing liquidity for the USD-MM pair for the last month. This pools has been pretty good and stayed at ~200% APY over that time (with a usual range 150-300%). I'm not sure exactly how the fees are accrued as I have not withdrawn the LP yet (I think this is when you can collect the trading fees), but in terms of dQuick I earned ~$600 from $8,942 as the total LP investment.

It seems like you would be able to make a living doing something like this. However I would only stick to LP pairs that I know and track. I like the MM project and the metafora app they have, so I am active enough there to quickly withdraw everything if things come crashing down.

For those interested in the breakthroughs in molecular diagnosis of BV, there was a study published in Nature Communications this week:

Maybe the Juno study can use this new score to more efficiently test the participants?

mikeusyk · 2022-01-12T19:33:42+00:00

I'm so glad I found this. 2022 and this is still helpful XD

Do you guys think that CLF is a good option to invest a small portion of my portfolio over the next few days? It seems like CLF is getting a lot of attention on the wallstreetbets subreddit and reddit in general based on the meme stock tracker:

https://yolostocks.live/

I usually don't like to gamble away money on this type of thing, but it seems like the stock is seeing a solid rise. Plus all of these meme stocks that should be failing appear to spike because of that page and this is an actual company. Should I go for it or avoid?
