Now we're cooking! Shown here is the interaction between different subsystems - I'm using the Command Pattern which makes implementation pretty straight-forward.

Next up is finding an interesting way to limit the undo feature - Any ideas?

@smitner ways to limit the undo feature.. make it like, a bar that has to refill or something before you can do it again? I play a lot of Demon's Tier+ and your main power is like that. Or Diablo - a cool down period etc.

@smitner exactly! Slow fillup too, it can be, just to kinda limit it. But whatever makes sense/seems fair haha

On this day, 5/31/1975 - The single, "Fight the Power" by The Isley Brothers, is released on the T-Neck record label. The song reaches #1 on the Billboard R&B chart, and #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

@RockGarage4 still as fresh now as the day it came out. Just watched a live version of them doing it 4 years ago and they STILL have it. It's amazing. 🔥

Mel Blanc was born today (May 30) in 1908. Truly the man of a thousand voices. For over 50 years, he was the voice of Looney Tunes.

Bugs Bunny is my favorite cartoon character ever, plus ALL the other great voices Mel did - Daffy, Porky, Sam, the rest. Legend.

Do other people type out entire emails and mastodon posts and card details to buy things online, and then just...... switch tabs to do something else and forget for ages that you had a thing to go back to and click send on? It's like my brain is saying "wait, stop, you might want to have time to think about this a little more before you commit" but I'm just buying more goddamned toilet paper, not committing to a home loan or something

IGN is re-running old footage before the State of Play that makes it look like the PS4 has just been re-announced 😅
I literally opened the stream and the guy on stage said "PS4" and everyone started clapping

@christian oh yuck haha. Ours is up there too and ugh the summer is just getting started. This is our hibernation season hahaha - the 2 or 3 months of "winter" here are really the only nice times to be outside 😬 this is now and our upcoming week

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@christian ha! Well, serves me right for living in a desert I guess 😂 Ah, but Portugal sounds beautiful. It's gotta be in the spring and fall right? Do you get snow? We get none here where I am but if you drive like an hour or two north there are on the coldest winter days haha. I'm from east coast USA actually, seen a LOT of snow, I don't mind cold but moving snow and driving in it suuuucks. But it's beautiful. Ha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@christian haha oh wow. Sweden looks REALLY amazing, I'd love to be anywhere in Europe. I'm sure I'd stick out as a big dumb American though haha. And yeah, you can definitely see stuff some better out here. Still a fair amount of light pollution near where I live but if you drive out in any direction, sometimes there's like, NOTHING haha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@christian oh nice. And the prices are decent there in North Sweden? Wow. I've always wondered how comparable it is to over here. We moved to AZ because it was supposedly cheaper cost of living but I'm not so sure anymore haha. Would totally love to get out of this country someday. I've never been shy about it haha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@christian whoaaa WILD! That is REALLY cheap hahaha, I mean, you probably know what houses go for here. Wow. I'm not super DIY with home repair stuff though hahaha

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@christian wow haha and no, I love learning about stuff like this - this is wild to me. I've heard of semi similar things, things are super out of control here too, 100k- and up, yeah there are million dollar homes here in AZ for sure (they call one of my favorite areas Paradise Valley for a reason haha) - if I could afford it, I'd go near there. Amazing up there, and right near wifey's work. Right now, she has a sometimes 1.5 hour commute each way. Which really sucks. Gotta get closer but it's tough with the prices haha

jake4480,

Google's doing it to themselves. I predict that eventually (or even fairly soon) YouTube searches will be full of only AI-generated news and other things and will be completely unusable. Just tried looking up something and got only weird videos with AI characters badly speaking news. This is gonna be a mess

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@berkough ha! Full Skynet. That's what I can't stop thinking about. Singularity crap. My stupid sci-fi addled brain haha. But yeah, the weird monotones, repeating things, sound not matching the mouth.. this is the future of news? 🤮 😂

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@wendigo she does?!? That is SO bizarre. I mean I'd seen some rudimentary stuff like this but this is BAD - it's so bizarre. You'd think it would be better than this even by now haha

@Judeau @slashie @SkaldRPG oh yeah, and I had included it on my 'great looking indie games' list I did last year. Looks like I need to update it haha https://spacetimetech.wordpress.com/2023/09/26/16-great-looking-upcoming-indie-video-games-2023-version-this-post-will-be-edited-as-theyre-released

jake4480,

@Judeau haha awesome. Yeah, I'm hoping/thinking most of these should be on Steam, and some with demos! Let me know your findings, if you try and they work or don't haha

@dinosaurgerms WOW hahaha oh I had no idea. I've never found this one in the wild and haven't emulated 😂 someone just posted that ad in my Insta feed and sometimes you're just struck by a small moment of joy hahaha. Like, what a moment in TIME

jake4480,

@dinosaurgerms ok, AMAZING hahaha. Well, I didn't go to many bowling alleys. Maybe that's why I haven't seen it 😂
