Thank you! I like it and people I have shown it to say it feels ”addictive”, but something is missing as I am the only person who keeps playing after some levels :D so maybe it’s for me only.

I had an idea for a puzzle game and learned some game programming to try it out. Only made it to scratch my own curiosity and was postively surprised how fun the process was. I got some of my friends hooked but other than that of course absolutely no one saw it. World is full of casual puzzles.

> Those two characters looking into the sunset in the background… where exactly is the cool white light illuminating their faces coming from?

The same place music in the film is coming from.

Thanks, added arrow keys and (a & d). It's a good improvement for desktop. Godot is nice and has all the basic things for casual game like this out of the box. For HTML5 it feels bit heavy, but on the other hand enables building for iOS, Android etc.

I don't know how it compares to others as this is my first game.

I have been running my model B as a VJ tool. It runs glsl shaders in SD resolution quite nicely. Has composite output straight in the board.

I remember it was also that cloud as a term was pure marketing hype. Unnecessary rebranding of a thing we already had a good name for, servers. And also to pick such a irrational name ”cloud” which didn’t relate to technology at all. You could hear everyone use it in nonsense high flying keynotes. All the hands-on computer people laughed at it and I think cloud to butt was part of that.

In the end it’s actually really good word for newish concept and using it does not feel silly to me anymore.

I sort of wish companies would not have employees passwords. Hashing should be standard practice.

There is lot of talk and debate about building wind, nuclear doing the green transition etc. in Finland. I guess like in every country. Somehow it makes me sad that group of open source developers could do more today than we ever can to help the planet no matter how much we scale back.

Although they built the hell machine in the first place, so maybe better if they would not have ever done anything.

I’ve heard that before photography framing was different. Nobody painted half a head for example. After accidents in framing during photography new ways to frame image spread to painting. Always wondered if it was true.

That slow flip on animation drives me nuts! It should be skeuomorphic all the way and flip on instantly.
