I've been really enjoying this demo for a game called epic auto towers, even moreso than I enjoyed super auto pets, which I think is fair to say the same genre. Compared to SAP, this game is PvE, and adds relics and bosses. Ultimately it has a ton of really satisfying combos that can get really high stats, and I'm super excited...
yeah. i like games that make you engage with the mechanics and find "satisfying combos" like that. i wish more incremental games did that - rather than a single "number go up", you have a meaningful choice of stats to increase.
one idea i've had in the vein of autobattlers: what if future runs made you play against your strongest previous builds?
so if you find an overpowered combo, you'll have to be able to find its weakness as well.
i'm not sure what you mean about an incremental autobattler needing to be deterministic; plenty of incremental games have heavy amounts of RNG in them.
Howdy! I'm thepaperpilot, and for the past few months I've been working on something I think the internet doesn’t have enough of right now—a comfy, human-first social media space without ads or corporate interference....
oh wow! congrats on prestiging the incremental gaming community!
i'm a big fan of Free/Libre/Open Source games and that includes a lot of incremental games (Trimps, Structure, AD, Fundamental, etc).
i don't have any accounts on corporate social media (like Reddit/Discord) so a more open incremental game community is a welcome change.
hopefully developers will add a "join Matrix room" button instead of asking you to sign up for Discord.
i started making a little incremental TIC-80 game a while back and maybe i'll actually finish it now that there's a community i can share it with.
Specifically, do you worry that Microsoft is going to eventually do the Microsoft thing and horribly fuck it up for everyone? I’ve really grown to appreciate the language itself, but I’m wary of it getting too ingrained at work only to have the rug pulled out from under us when it’s become hard to back out....
Without TypeScript, people would have adopted a different JS transpiler, one that isn't controlled by a monopolistic corporation with a history of extinguishing open source projects.
It's a meme. This image shows a lemmy user asking a highly technical question and a caption saying that that is the least technical user, implying that all other lemmy users are even more technical.

Or you could stick to software that doesn't need lawyers or licensing or eulas or negotiations.
If you use Godot, you actually own your copy of the game engine, can do whatever you want with it, and aren't waiting for some corporation to do crazy nonsense like unity did.
I asked you to not conflate cops that kill innocent people with EMTs that save people and your response is to conflate cops that kill innocent people with women and children in ukraine? Really?
If the prime minister told me "You will have to content yourself that you will have died at your post" I wouldn't trust the authorities either. Being a bank teller shouldn't mean you have to die for your employer or for the police.
This relates to the BBC article [www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-66596790] which states “the UK should pay $24tn (£18.8tn) for its slavery involvement in 14 countries”....
Britain paid reparations to the slaveowners and their descendants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_Compensation_Act_1837
The last check went out in 2015. So yes, people alive today benefited from this. directly.
If they want to make it fair, they should pay reparations to the descendants of enslaved people and/or take back the money they gave to slaveowners.
Payments of the bonds to the descendants of creditors was only finalised in 2015 when the British Government decided to modernise the gilt portfolio by redeeming all remaining undated gilts.
Since 2018, numerous Freedom of Information Act requests have been sent to the British government and Bank of England for the names of those who were paid with the bonds, of which all were denied.
I've reported a few posts on kbin and I'm not sure if they go anywhere. Who reads the reports? Does the report go to the magazine owner? What if hate speech is coming from the owner of a magazine?
Surely kbin has a better plan for handling this stuff than "PM the admin"? Does this site not have a moderation team? Otherwise anyone who wants to spam ads/hatespeech/etc just needs to create their own magazine or use a magazine with an absentee moderator: Ernest is overworked AF and there's no way he can moderate a site this big alone.
The men can only move 1 square in any direction, while women can move anywhere on their row/column/diagonal. Clearly this biological difference is why they have separate men's and women's chess tournaments. Also, I hear trans people can double jump.
I haven't tried thrive in a while. I hear they've switched engines again, to Godot this time. Is it playable? Is it fun? Do they have more than the single-cell phase?
