A fixed-screen 1981-style arcade shooter. A craft you shoot does not vanish. It turns into a burning WRECK that falls, crushing every craft it passes through on the way down. Then it lands wherever you are. Play in your browser on PC or smartphone. abagames.itch.io/wreckfall

How to fix something in 10 days: - spend 9.5 days searching for it, trying different ideas, going into blind alleys, getting a better grasp of the systems involved, understanding some of the interconnections and subtleties, finding out what's not documented - 1 hour making the fix - 3 hours testing

Andor started 4 years ago today. And it managed to make me a fan all over again. Even a TIE Fighter becomes a formidable force there. A return to their roots, since the sound of the TIE is inspired by WW2 dive bombers, which had an artificially created siren sound. The aim was to terrify people.

I love this so much. "Play the game exactly how you need to." I have often had to tap out of an action/RPG narrative game and read the rest of the plot online because I couldn't get past some of the encounters. So being able to experience the entire story in-game is always amazing.

From Remedy's page about Accessibility Settings in CONTROL Resonant.

The Intended Experience.

We talk a lot internally about designer intent. We do have a meticulously crafted, intended experience for CONTROL Resonant. It's balanced to be tense, demanding, and rewarding.

However, our philosophy is straightforward: if you run into a wall and the friction becomes too much, we would much rather you tweak the rules to overcome it than put the controller down and stop playing. Your time is valuable, and there’s no single right way to experience the game. Because of that, we absolutely do not gate any trophies or achievements behind these settings. Play the game exactly how you need to.

We were watching the Wolverine Sentinel footage, and... We used to call these "high chair boss battles" because the boss looks like a baby in a high chair and you're on their tray. Now you have to see it, too 😅

screenshot from the new Wolverine game with him battling a giant Sentinel. Wolverine is on a platform that comes up to the sentinel's waist. The sentinel hands can come to rest on the platform.

A mock bad photoshop of Wolverine in the same pose from the trailer shooped into a stock image of a large baby boy sitting in a high chair and crying. Wolverine is standing on the high chair tray in a similar angle and presentation to the previous game trailer screenshot

Memories of someone, almost 20 years ago, saying of a certain AAA licensed IP game: "even if was going to sell 5m copies we wouldn't want it, and certainly never a sequel with those numbers" So that's another way that the games industry has changed. I'm not sure what it means but there you go.

I was going to write a blog page on the learning processes when writing games. I thought to myself: an example or two would be nice. Then I realised that I don`t remember how I did those things. I know I didn`t sit there reading whole books on the hardware, though I did have them for reference.
