  • I am bored so I play Candy Crush Soda and windows solitaire.. not needing much to play. But it is really just a chore.. click click click click repeat.

    I used to play Sims quite a lot, also SimCity.. but I am quite disappointed with the latest versions, and same thing with Spore.. what a buzzkill. I am waiting for RCTWORLD but I feel I have too high hopes but you never know! RCT1+2 must be my most favorite pc game ever. (as opposed of console games)

    RCT3 was too buggy (and too slow when you trying to get realistic size park)

    Of course sometimes I test games (there area few gems) and also my own games but it is not really same thing when trying to find bugs and play through levels you know already about.

  • Mario & co

    Link & Zelda (& co)

    Samus Aran

    Bub and Bob

    Kirby

    Giana and Maria

    Pac-Man and family

    Q*Bert (and his swears!!)

    Really this could turn into a very long list....

    PC game characters:

    Guybrush threepwood

    Leisure Suit Larry (what a loser, haha)

  • I would recommend against using C2 for making websites. Many reasons why has been written but I can add disability to the list. Now I haven't seen actually a site made with C2 but I suspect it will be harder to adjust with your own fonts, your own colors, your own sizes, or for speech or braille machines.

    It is true that many sites ignore this group of people nowadays compared with when the html was simpler back in time (I am thinking of early-mid 90s) but still.

    No info on that yet. Also be patient, C3 will not be released yet for quite long.

  • I do not know if there's way to detect real world time. If yes, then on start of the app, detect that and compare with the old saved time (from prev. session), and see how long time has passed, and apply the changes on the "animals" based on that.

  • I prefer hand made over computer. Hand drawn wins.

    Also, have you seen Coraline? It is stop motion animation of puppets but made so awesome that it would make you think it is CG...

    And of course there are bad versions of all kinds. Bad lazy hand drawn animation and awful fake looking stop motion with long "stops". Bad lazy cg work. lazy = bad.

  • I do not know if you know this, but I tried the scroll and C2:s own fade together and it produced strange results. But maybe you posted this just because of my findings. or from your own findings with the border shader problem. Looks like the transparency is culprit for many of the shader troubles?

  • Yeah, it is interesting, I remember when I read programming books about the importance to use proper variable because if you do not declare it as anything you will get the most wasteful one, oh the horrors! ;D

    but glerikud is right, now in comparison, there are so many other things that are more wasteful..

  • It is true for normal programming! booleans, integer, floating point, text... I am also curious about C2.

  • Yes you will be able to run old projects.

  • I have to look at this StuffGEN now.

    As for using shaders in this little game, why not add enemies floating around that utilize some of the shaders. And also why not trigger a beam (from bonus maybe) that use the twist shader (in combination with scroll)!

  • Somebody

    A proper level, yes.

    Either by starting with empty level (just showing the background texture) and fill it with the parts (tiles) to form the level. OR start with a solid slowly down-scrolling wall (of maybe the "B" chocolate tile) and knock it off tile by tile to reveal the level tiles behind. (This second one is more like BoulderDash original, so it might be too close to be homage) <---- Somebody btw, the Fade behavior and the Scroll Effect aren't playing well together. I won't be using together, but I noticed it when I tested.

    shinkan

    Without actually testing the code, I have a feel this would just show any tile at random, right?

    I kind of want to have the ordered random-ness, row by row. to make it random but not entirely random.(entirely random could cause to happen to clump in one part of the screen and empty in other)

    And... THANK YOU!!!!!!
