This game is ripping off The Return of Traxtor's loading screen ๐Ÿ˜…

The rip-off: https://zarzak.itch.io/escape-from-exodron-zx-spectrum

The original: https://www.usebox.net/jjm/return-of-traxtor/

@reidrac if they're going to steal your loading screen I wonder what else in their game is stolen ๐Ÿค”

I don't think it would be unreasonable to just report them to be honest.

How is any of this user-friendly?

It's less obvious when you can't see my cursor, but if I select the files and click 'Extract...', I can't choose to extract only selected files. If I right-click the selected files and click extract, I can select that option. Additionally, it's not immediately obvious how I can deselect the files...

Truly free GNU/Linux distributions like Dragora, Trisquel, or Parabola tend to have fewer contributors but all the same hosting expenses as larger distros. Have you donated to support them yet? https://dragora.org/en/donate.html

@fsf link seems to lead to a 404? Correct URL seems to be https://dragora.org/donate/

@amszmidt @fsf yeah looks like it's fixed now ๐Ÿ˜„

So yesterday I decided to spend the day on a more creative outlet as it was a bank holiday. Hope you guys enjoy, as it's a little different to the things I usually do.

Pretty unfortunate round of things I've had to dump this month so far - had about three different items pass me so far, but all were exact matches with retail. Got some other things on the way which should be a little more promising ๐Ÿคž

At this rate my channel will be nothing but Titan A.E. gameplay videos... But here's another!

Forgot to set the thumbnail before I headed up to bed, so I'll sort that tomorrow.

Is it safe to upgrade #Ubuntu yet?

@ThePlant I upgraded during the week and no complaints on this end so far.

@Tau some of the complaints I've seen have been that signing up for a PlayStation account isn't possible from their native country, so they might be unable to continue playing - which seems like a reasonable reason to be upset.

Another Titan A.E. video... More to go ๐Ÿ˜…

Been experimenting with the screen Vaseline (aka bloom) in the engine today (partly because the post-processing pipeline broke, again). I've gone with more of a star-shape now. I should also point out that these are way more exaggerated than they'll appear normally, just to make the effect a bit clearer.

I've uh, started collecting Sold Out games recently. For reasons.

How are things going with modding The Witcher 3?

Yes.

Took a stab at getting the Cyberpunk 2077 prototype from 2013 running. It's uh, not in a good state, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to get the scripts executing successfully at this rate, but at least I can load into some of the levels now.

Gradually making more progress. Sound wasn't working before, so that's been fixed now too.

Probably done for the most part for now, I've uploaded the other screenshots from my spelunking adventures here.

Seems a lot of the content under "r6data/r6" is really early stuff from December 2012.

And now I finally finished Borderlands 2. The ending was rather anti-climatic, but overall the game was a big improvement over the first. Onto Pre-Sequel next.

Another Titan A.E. video. Quite a few more to go before I'm done ๐Ÿ˜…
