Got to try this gem out today (although only a few minutes). Looks like a gold nugget to me, so keep an eye on it if your into tactical turn based games! 🌟

MS Paint!!! Used to use it all the time to doodle quick diagrams to people.

However, nowadays I miss it on windows too.

I would click it instantly... But maybe I'm a weirdo πŸ˜…

If I remember correctly you could bypass the age verification by pressing alt-x 😁

Haha, cool. Yeah I'm up for it. But maybe use a communication method that allows for more characters than here on bluesky? I'll dm you my email =)

Startup idea: agency that scouts to find your "lower body twin", who also has a fashion interest, so you can outsource "buying new pants"

I really wish they would stop playing around with their shiny, expensive toy and make something that's actually useful :-/

Metro.Siberia - The Game Navigate through three of the Siberian underground systems in this RSSGTG (Retro Soviet Style Gravity Tunnel Game). A very simple and addicting game inspired by the well known helicopter game.

Huge congrats Simon πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Next time we meet I'll demo my little game (it needs a bit of hand holding right now)!

Until then, you can play an old game of mine (released 2007) which is actually playable in a browser. Although not a mobile browser.

Have a wonderful day 🎈

Todays big bug hunt is finally over! Needed to properly ensure backward compatibility for the fact that eggs can no longer swim. #gamedev

Implemented new ability. A map reveal, which of course needs to be called "MIND MAP" =D

Btw: Ascii FTW

When are we going to follow up the events after the immortal space pope was thrown into the gravity well (that was epic btw)? πŸ˜ƒ
