This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I wouldn't exactly call Doodle Jump the pinnacle of gaming.

If you play games like monument valley 1 & 2, dadish, 20 minutes till dawn and games similar to that you'll see how polished mobile games can be.

Edit: Game name correction

World of Goo 2 isn't on mobile :(

Doodle Jump wasn't the pinnacle of gaming, but everything about it was polished to perfection. The devs really put in the effort and finished the game, which is a rare feeling even in AAA games today.

Rose tinted glasses here, extremely simple game loop and it still had bugs and hit box issues under some conditions

But the potential was there, not a mtx nightmare in 80 percent of games. I would still say that great games like minedustry or better are still possible nowadays

Not being an MTX nightmare should be the bare minimum, not something deserving of praise.

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Minedustry hast no mtx, it's even free on Android. I bought the game on steam to support the developer even tho I don't play it on steam

Perhaps not, but it was definitely fun.

Of course not. That title belongs to Fruit Ninja.
