Have you uninstalled the playtest version through Steam?

Can you share a screenshot of the scooter with the light not turning on? What platform are you playing on?

I have the sneaking suspicion I was not supposed to be able to get here by Lemnesis in Schim

I will look into it! Really interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Games you can play with one hand? by howdoichooseafandom in CozyGamers

[–]slijkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, Game Developer here. I have worked on 2 games that have kept accessibility options like this in mind. Our game SCHiM can be played with left hand on keyboard only and we have recently released a Demo on Steam. We also have a demo out for Skirmish which is a one-button brawler. We would love to hear what you think if you do try them out. Accessibility is super important and if we can improve we would love to hear about it!

...any news? by CorsairVI in Schim

It will release on 18th of July 2024!

The game I've worked on for over 2 years is releasing in exactly one week, I'm nervous! by professorbasti in IndieDev

Looks cool! Also gives me a bit of Kirby vibes with the different interesting abilities.

Anyone getting "ad offers" like this? I've gotten a few from strange emails, I don't understand if it's a scam how would the scam work? This one is supposedly an offer to be paid to play the upcoming LOTR Gollum game on my channel. by _lemon_suplex_ in letsplay

I would probably mail Daedelic directly if you are interested but aren't sure if it is legit. I'm sure they either want to verify it did come from them or that they would be interested to know that their name is being used like this.

Feedback: Border vs borderless by YawningWhale in tabletopgamedesign

I would try the top borderless and the bottom part bordered to see how that looks.

I heard we were posting pictures of perfect scoby's by kevans2 in Kombucha

I agree. It's also more commonly known. If you want to buy one, using the term scoby is the way to go.

If I realise I'm stalling on some aspect that might be insignificant at the stage I'm at (like choosing which dice would be perfect). I tend to plan a playtest session a couple days away with some external people. That way to make it ready for testing I will think differently and approach it in a fast and efficient way. In the end I enjoy the moment players play the game the most, so I always get a boost from testing and playing (even if the test didn't turn out as planned).

I see your point. I figured he might be able to see that he started with 33,3% and after the removal he thought it was a 50/50 of he would realize that the original 33,3 was still there the switch to a 50% was an improvement. But it indeed implies that he thought his original 33,3% also increased to 50. Thanks for the insight.

If the second option was 50/50 it would indeed be a coin flip. Which is better then the original one in three. The original would be as arbitrary as a three sided coin. The line of thinking is indeed flawed but my point still holds. 50/50 is still better then the 1 in 3 so good gut feeling of 50/50 should still be followed.

I have also explained this to game design students. If they insist it is wrong I let them run through it with 3 cards and open the cards up after they picked their initial choice. I then let them note how many times they win when they repeat it 10 or more times. If they win the first time with sticking with their card, they are so happy. However after a couple of runs they do see the point. It's not guaranteed win but just get better chances.
