I realized that you can have outlines in TTF text, so no need for bitmap fonts.

April Fools is such a retarded holiday. Nobody falls for that bullshit.

In case there was any doubt that the smash community is still a bunch of groomer pedos, here's the latest update from the modding discord.

I hate it here. Fags can't stay quiet for two fucking seconds even after children were killed.

Mines and missiles have limited ammo now. I've also added a HUD. It's just text and it uses a TTF rather than a bitmap font. Bitmap fonts seem to be difficult in SFML. Supposedly, vertex arrays solve this problem but I haven't tried them yet.

Well, I done did it. 2011 Apple MacBook Air 4,2 support added in Libreboot. UNTESTED, so pushed to WIP branch. I'm waiting for the one I ordered to arrive.

Patch:

browse.libreboot.org/lbmk.git/

It compiles. It auto-downloads me.bin by first downloading an Apple EFI firmware update as a .dmg file from Apple, directly. The .dmg file is LZMA compressed inside, so lbmk uses 7z from p7zip recursively until it finds me.bin inside (bruteforced with me_cleaner on each file until neutered me.bin is created).

Say no to censorshit, say no to DRM!
DRM and censorshit are the reason why piracy is growing, or otherwise everyone refrains from playing a game.

Every Zelda clone fan and Genesis/Mega Drive fan keeps on saying that this is a hidden gem, but I don't see why. It's good, but it pales in comparison to Zelda. It's pretty linear (uses the Mario style level select for the overworld), lacks sidequests, and using animal partners in place of items doesn't sound appealing to me at all.

Doing hand-drawn sprites seems to be much easier than I thought. Too bad I can't draw for shit, and using hand drawn graphics while programming your games "from scratch" sounds like a programming nightmare.
