Realized I never added code to multiply color by alpha and it was screwing up antialiasing on a lot of my menu graphics (not that there was a lot of that in a game to be dominated by pixel art) so I went ahead and fixed that up quick. By the way, I am planning a custom texture container based on QOI and a load of other mostly uncompressed codecs, which I will also be publishing. Wanted a platform agnostic container where I can have the same file name on every platform but with different encodings just for convenience.

It was one windy day- but Free Staters from accross New Hampshire came out to Manchester on Tuesday none-the-less and protested Manchester's city ordinance that prohibits people from selling home made food without a permission slip. The gist of the story is a guy was targeted by state mafia, ie the health deaprtment in the City of Manchester for daring to give away canned pickles. Free Staters heard the story and turned it viral. Maybe 50-100 mostly free staters showed up outside an aldermine meeting to demand change and defy the governments draconian restrictions on the distribution of food by mere mortals. Check out the article and protest video here:
