www.bfxr.net BFXR major update. I need to spend a *lot* more time with the presets of the instruments, but I was so immediately sold by the Mixfxr tool (that just overlaps two existing synths) that I had to put it live RIGHT AWAY. Try it out!

Earlier versions of the game did acknowledge the creators of the original games at the start of each section, and I consider it unacceptable that this was removed at Jon’s direction. Stephen Totilo noticed this change and wrote a nuanced article here: www.gamefile.news/p/a-complica...

A complicated game

Who gets credit for Order of the Sinking Star? Where should the names appear for the creators of its source material? And would you notice if a great game designer sat next to you?

Seeing if I can make Six Match into Slop Match. Some bugs, but mostly works. Yes players can move out of sync, the board has regional-locking like Zookeeper. If it's not animating you can move into it.

Easy Delivery Co. is part Colin McRae Rally, part egg and spoon race, all Death Stranding-like. Quite promising so far. Wobbly deliveries and dodgy roads backed up by some survival mechanics. Like I'm describing that Kojima game but the points of tension are very different.

My #picotron port of Lemmings now has all the original levels playable (plus the replacement levels, plus all the holiday levels, plus a handful of others) It runs in the browser here: sophiehoulden.com/ohno.html

Screenshot of the first lemmings level "Just Dig!", small lemming creatures fall from a trapdoor into a dirt and grass environment and walk toward an exit.

Screenshot of the classic Lemmings level "You need bashers this time" where lemmings tunnel through frozen crystals and jagged netting to reach the exit.

868-Back players, a question: What does the "End" button do? I've tried clicking it a dozen times but nothing happens. I assumed you it would let you abandon a run but no, it just vanishes and sends you back to the same run when you click Run.

Death Stranding 2 really is more Death Stranding. More map, more awesome traversal, more awkward combat, more awkward stealth, more dodgy boss fights. The story otherwise is no longer insta-skip, it's fine. Mechanics have been both streamlined and expanded. The game knows itself. I give it a 👍
