Escape From Dimansion (2021) is probably @shdon's best game so far. First, it has horror elements which remind me of The 7th Guest and I find the puzzles with the stone blocks really intriguing.

what's an android solitaire game that's safe and not recurring subscription, asked +1. i have pysolfc but figured she'd want something less sprawling. i spent an hour investigating games, which had as many data-safety issues after paying as before. ads, location tracking, full storage access, full network access. she's getting acquainted with now. no permissions, no ads, no money, but a bit of a learning curve.

New experiments with Unreal Engine 5, Niagara. A prototype of a magnetic device for collecting various bio material. I have a lot of gameplay ideas where it can be used and how: plants, insects, crafting, fuel or things to scare away creatures... Maybe you will have ideas too?

Flying a drone over this mess... I won't show you the drone itself, because now it's just a sphere. I haven't thought about the design yet. The drone will have a lot of mechanics, I hope... Now there is only movement gameplay and flashlight 🤖😘

So, wizards, how do you come up with ideas? I've been studying GDScript, have a programming background, and should be able to make something, but an actual idea escapes me. Any advice would be appreciated.

I guess I'll look into Hyper8 or similar hosted at home, main trouble I suspect will be dynamic DNS...

Just ran network traffic analysis on a random game and it's sending a constant stream of packets to some #Unity / #Google server

Apparently it's quite the PITA for the game developers to disable this, as the Unity managers keep turning it back on somehow, see:

https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-editor-and-build-connect-to-ips-for-unknown-reason.1462229/

What has the world come to. 🙄

We need more #opensource #freesoftware games with free engines like #godot and #bevy that respect the player's #privacy! #gamedev

TIL you can block network access to a #game (or any other application) in #Linux:

unshare -n ./game

which requires root access though, so this is required to run it as user:

sudo unshare -n sudo -u <myusername> ./game

I remember playing the Time Quest demo by Chad Goulding in 2003. It felt like an original game from Sierra.

▶️ http://agidev.com/games/?page=3

@cosmicvoid and @shdon made wonderful AGI-like games before, so I'm more than sure their work will honor Chad Goulding.

When I was a youngster in the late 1980s, I formed an Amiga game dev team with 2 friends.

Before making games, we started by trying to sell game music that used minimal RAM, made with our music editor SIDmon.

To promote our game music, this energetic music module was composed by our musician Ramon Braumuller. The file, including tiny sampled sounds, is only 22 kilobytes.

Check the hashtag for more tunes.
