I'm silly, this game probably didn't run in 98 or ME, but the first game did

 

The Black and White series was originally hyped by the always passionate Peter Molyneux. Back in 2001, the first Black and White was being hyped up to be the greatest game of all time. Since then, a sequel was released in 2005 called Black and White 2, which was even more forgotten. Was this a worthy sequel to step the genre forward, or did the series once again fall short of expectations?

 

Cylobian Sunday!

"I Will Cross Any Bridge" is a new 14 track studio album marking Cylob's 30th year since his debut release. Developed from works in progress posted on SoundCloud over the last 18 months, the tracks encompass vocoder songs, abstract sonic exploration, acid in unusual time signatures and contemplative ambience in addition to some more straightforward analog jams.

Deus Ex, added to my library Aug 18th 2011, I also owned it before Steam though, I think I bought it in 2001

Although I've owned The 7th Guest since 1993 and I do have that installed lol which is probably my actual longest owned game that I have installed currently.

I just finished watching this run and yea it's nuts lol. I used to be bothered about how OP and overused the cape was, but its usage was so precise here and since it's 96 exits(? or is this a new thing to just never do it?) there isn't that much uninteresting flying over levels.

PS4 version: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP6325-CUSA45771_00-0881145802075151

PS5 version: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/EP6324-PPSA19312_00-0862542480799380

Of course the game is still available on Steam, GOG, Switch, Android, iOS...

Note that this is DIFFERENT from the VR game. The title is misleading, the VR game is not a port it is a reboot with slightly different story and totally different puzzles.

The problem is this dilutes the comments.

If you have 2 posts and one of them has a comment, people might see that comment and join in on the conversation, also the human OP gets a notification about the comment and is likely to reply. What Lemmy needs is more comments not more posts.

But with bot posts you have 1000 posts and maybe 1 of them has a comment but no one will ever see it, people will see the community has lots of posts but no comments and that isn't interesting, it's just a glorified RSS feed at that point.

Communities are supposed to be comprised of people not bots. The Google definition of "community":

a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common.

"Knockout Bracket: 13 players from the Main Stage and 2 players from the Qualifiers"

so Shin and Showtime will be in the knockout bracket, I'm guessing top left and bottom left of the bracket

so the top 4 will be made up of the 1st place from each group, the winner between the 2nd place from each group (with the loser going to the knockout bracket), and the last slot is the winner of the knockout bracket

 

While Summer Games Done Quick is finishing up their last day, Weegee just smashed his own WR by 19 seconds! This is 27 seconds ahead of 2nd place (Karin)

How about a randomizer? Pick a game you like and see if there's a randomizer for it:

completely wicked remix by Aphex Twin, also check the one before it, Flow Coma, both from "2 Remixes By AFX" https://www.discogs.com/master/2408-AFX-2-Remixes-By-AFX

Also #19 in this playlist, the remix of "Normal", I feel like goes along with these 2 even though it's not from the same release.

Another classic from Rephlex!

haha maybe for a small site, but then you get something like this...

https://video-game-randomizers.github.io/rando-list/

The data is all yaml files, Jekyll runs in Github Actions automatically on commit. Try doing this in HTML by hand and then realize you want to change the HTML structure a little bit, like group the randomizers by game instead of by series, or add new fields or new features. Or accept pull requests from non-developers to add new entries. We accept pull requests from people and they just have to fill in the yaml info with plenty of examples and schema checks in Github Actions before building the site, and you can download a zip file of the output HTML from Github Actions. If they were submitting as HTML, imagine trying to write automatic verification that it's in the correct format.

I wonder if it will have a classic single player mode

[–] Die4Ever@programming.dev 6 points 2 weeks ago

Use the website, it has an option to export your data to a file, and then import it. You don't need any 3rd party apps or anything.

I've been using AviDemux, but this seems like it's probably better?

 

Happy Cylobian Sunday!

This release comprises a selection of 11 standalone tracks originally featured on the 2007 album "Trojan Fader Style", where they are used as part of an hour-long mix.
