I have been obsessed with this game since it came out. I've already put in 60 hours and got 14 games cherried (which means 100%ing them, getting a true ending, or beating a difficult challenge).
I'm writing an incredibly long blog post where I review every single game in the pack. Excited to finish & share it once I'm done playing through everything.
I remember so much pessimism last year that people's complaints will change nothing and that almost every Unity dev is too deep and won't be able to switch engines.
Well, guess what, so many people did switch and Unity did feel the hurt. The community really did take action.
Everyone's going to (rightfully) dunk on Unity but I think this is a great move and it's nice that the engine isn't going away. Competition is always good, and I'm happy for the devs that did stick with the engine. Lots of studios celebrating on social media with a sigh of relief. I still think Godot is going to eat Unity's lunch the next few years so they better step it up.
A bit late, but I really like it :)
It's simple and well laid-out, and I do like the sidebar to quickly jump from post to post.
This was pretty fun! I got 3x scale and a score of 412.
Why? Automod is just a tool, the issues people have with it is how overzealous the mods using it are. If you're moderating a community with 10,000+ people you can't expect to filter and manage everything yourself, so a bot scheduling posts and filtering potential spam/low effort content is necessary.
Very good stuff in this update! The new page quickly showing all the changes is also a lot easier to digest than a 5,000 word essay blog post.
I've already been on 4.3 since the dev previews, so more than anything I'm excited for this release so the team can finally get to merging all those PRs that were shelved for 4.4. Lots of performance optimizations and big changes I'm excited for are coming in that next update. The wait continues!

This hits too close to home.
I'm aware that people are slowly grouping up to one specific community per topic but I don't think this means there isn't an issue with communities being fractured. Using a third party tool to gauge which communities are popular also isn't a great solution. Just searching Linux shows:
I don't think each one of these communities has a different audience. It's the same audience, but there isn't an obvious answer for which one to visit or post in.
Competitions where individuals or teams try to solve complex programming problems as fast as possible. Websites like Codeforces even have weekly online competitions and leaderboards. It's great for learning problem solving.
Absolutely horrifying, thanks
I'll post it on Lemmy once it's done. I'm still not entirely sure which gaming communities would be most suitable but it'll definitely be in !blogging@programming.dev :)
That said, UFO 50 is truly massive, so it'll be some time before I finish this thing. One of the games I haven't started yet is apparently a 20+ hour JRPG, so that'll be fun.
