GameLiberty is down, so I have to upload here.
Now that my Spy Hunter clone is complete, I am working on a platformer. I decided to make it a cross between VVVVVV and MegaMan. There will be enemies to kill, but instead of jumping, you change gravity. So it's basically a Metal Storm clone. But right now, all I have is the player moving left and right and flipping gravity.
I'm using CaveStory sprites as placeholders because I like my characters and tiles to be the same size, and Quote carries a gun.

Silly question: you decide to gift/sell someone a used laptop running something like kubuntu, what would be the best way to ensure you're also providing the source code for the #GPL software that's on it?
I am assuming gifting someone a gnu/linux machine isn't a GPL violation, but I'm not sure exactly why...

Thanks to efforts by volunteers Nosamu and bai0, the Internet Archive's flash emulation just jumped generations ahead.
Mute/Unmute works. The screen resizes based on the actual animation's information. And for a certain group who will flip their lid:
We can do multi-swf flash now!
A pile of previously "broken" flashes will join the collection this week.
I want to make a platformer next, but I don't want to do a Mario clone. Does anyone have any ideas?
Nothing complex like a Metroidvania or even a Sonic clone (physics would be a nightmare).

Very dry read. It's more of a reference condensed from a lot of last years writing.

PSA: When uploading files, check the user permissions of the file because you might accidentally expose your real name through the user permissions, unless you don't care about anonymity, of course.

This is why decentralization is the obvious next step. Vertical scaling has reached its LIMIT for social media. The next step is to scale it horizontally. Oh, you created a Twitter clone?? Cute, I created 1,000 Twitter clones.

IT'S FINALLY DONE.
My Spy Hunter clone, Distant Ruins is now complete. Currently, there is only a Linux binary, but you should be able to compile for Windows in the meantime.
I can't believe I wasn't aware about this until now. Apparently, there is an organization that is creating cheap, open-source industrial machines that can be used to create small, self-sustaining communities. Basically, 3D print your own village.

I bet distributists like @Andrii would love this.
