  • [Itch.io] This week's little indie freebies

    > In The Forgotten Ari, a visual novel filled with laughter and heart, we step into the shoes of Ari, a 21 year old psychology student who is on an ambitious quest to understand complexities of human emotions and especially love.

    > Immerse yourself in by playing in this captivating world brought to life by stunning and quirky artworks and captivating soundtracks.

    • VAULT 0 > Vault 0 is a spooky text-based-choose-your-own-adventure game with 12 endings. Explore a strange forest in search of a mysterious device.
    • At Sixes And Sevens, retro spooky mystery > You’ve probably seen the news. The entire country is waiting for answers in the Veronika case—the 16-year-old girl whose life was taken in such a senseless, brutal way.

    > The pressure is immense, but I trust that with your expertise, we can get to the truth.

    • jumbawyplatform > its platformer game and the narrator will make fun of you if you lose and there also a slowmotion
    • The Maze > this game is about you stuck in a maze and you try to escape and avoid the different types of enemies you can try it and see if you can escape
    • GridSim Evolution > Welcome to GridSim Evolution! A collection of evolution sims featuring cellular automaton.

    > A brain controls each creature — a simple neural network of weights inherited from its parents, with slight mutations each generation. Over time, through natural selection, creatures evolve to become better at surviving and duplicating. This leads to emergent behavior, where they appear to "learn" how to thrive across generations.

    > If a creature gathers enough energy (with higher thresholds as the population grows), it duplicates — creating a new creature with slightly mutated brain weights. Occasionally, large mutations happen, leading to surprising new behaviors.

    > White-nose pokes drain and steal energy, leading to predation. Yellow nose transfers energy, allowing for altruistic behavior to emerge naturally.

    > If any species’ population drops below three creatures (typically, it depends on the exact sim), a new random creature of that color will spawn

    [Itch.io] *The DIYGame*, possibly the greatest game ever made

    > The DIYGame is an ambitious undertaking. A revolutionary game about making games, it aims to make game design accessible to anyone and everyone. Balancing a meta plot about a struggling game designer, pressured from society at all sides, with fun and interactive mechanics allowing you to design your own games, this game is a true once in a generation experience. It is both easy to learn and complex enough to build any kind of game imaginable. It has both the capabilities to make a masterpiece on the level of Sneak King, the greatest game of all time, as well a shitpost for April Fools day.

    > Armed with nothing more than this, you too can finally create the game of your dreams!

    > Don't believe me? See what my playtesters had to say about it:

    > * "A true work of art. 5 Games out of 4. Worth every penny. Even though it was free*." - Cahatstrophe > * "Magnificent. Within a week, I had successfully built an amazing game, I think, I mean I was high for most of it and this "amazing game" appears to actually be a frog" - Cahatstrophe in a fake mustache > * "She gave me 5 bucks to say something nice about this, you know" - Cahatstrophe with Groucho Marx Glasses on > * "DOWNLOAD THIS NOW" - Cahatstrophe hiding behind a newspaper > * "This game saved my marriage, and my relationship with my girlfriend" - Two Cahatstrophes stacked on top of each other wearing a trenchcoat

    Why the FIA is confident the F1 flexi-wing saga isn't yet over
  • The traditional reason for banning an innovation is that it wasn't intended by the rules, and the rules are there to ensure a level playing field for the teams. Usually whenever some team comes up with a "creative interpretation of the rules" that gives them a huge advantage (flexi-wing, f-duct, double diffuser, fan car, whatever) then the FIA either say it's fine and everyone else then copies it, or the FIA say it's not and they ban it. Either way the team gets a few races of advantage before the playing field is levelled again.

  • Non smart TVs available to buy in the uk
  • The approach I'm taking is to just not connect it to the internet. Obviously the menus might still get slow over the years, but that could happen on and TV and I do most of my button-pressing through an external device (whether that's a Chromecast, raspberry pi, console, full PC, or whatever).

    I'm also looking into setting up a pihole to block everything except specific sites I actually want it to access, but that's a bigger undertaking!

Interaction with the environment will be added, for example destroying and building walls. The project is in the development phase, I have many ideas which I am implementing into the full version of the game.

    I'm hoping "demo" here is more like "early access", hard to tell on itch.io though
