Special animation just for dog?

Doesn’t matter if you wait a year or two to get it at the non-hype price with full content included

Jazzpunk is not a game I’ve heard of in a long time, great silly surrealism

Manifold garden is great too

A bunch of arcade games become much more friendly to kids with infinite continues, shmups, fighters, brawlers, etc but for those you’ll need to filter on violence. I’d probably also avoid anything RPG or story heavy.

My picks would be Bubble bobble, Kirby on SNES, ice hockey on NES, Mario 1-3, super Mario kart, Tetris, monkey ball, Dr Mario. For Sega Sonic 1-3 & knuckles, ecco, robotnik’s mean bean machine, Alex kidd, outrun

Good stuff, og Gameboy was my first handheld I have a lot of fond memories of those games like Zelda, WrestleMania, Castlevania, etc

These days I’m less on mobile gaming I have batocera running on a raspberry pi 4 in one of those small acrylic cases and a small fan

I suspect this is going to be true of pretty much any publicly accessible social media in general, parental controls built into the app or browser user access controls for censoring, time limits, or keeping them on a family friendly instance seems to be the right move

Greasybox Software

Redshift, it changes the brightness/color on the display bluer closer to midday and redder at night. Twilight is a similar app on android.

The first level of MegaMan x and good springs in fallout: New Vegas are really good examples of how to convey info to the player about how the game works and what you can do without pulling you out of the game itself into a separate tutorial

Easy answer for me, chemical plant zone from Sonic the hedgehog 2

What if it’s OG borderlands and there’s no battle pass or microtransactions.

Ha, good joke

Greasy Randy isn’t exactly known for being not gross prior to the comment either

Lately the most frequent ide/editors I’ve been using are sublime text, eclipse, and teXworks. I’d like to replace sublime text, maybe go back to emacs or give neovim a try. I’ll probably get rid of eclipse once I can replace the ee containers with self contained apps, I used vs code for a bit with java and it was fine but the ee server container integration wasn’t great, this was a couple years ago I last tried though.

The story just broke on corporate news networks, I heard the president of video games is going to make an address

Demagogue is the older term for the same thing; someone who tries to manipulate people for power or money by appealing to their emotions and prejudices.

Monster sanctuary (turn based monster collector) and Roboquest (arena shooter) were a couple from recent years that stood out to me

For older games nethack and dwarf fortress are great if you can look past the graphics

It’s more run away/chain reaction type events you want to avoid I think rather than a low % inflation or deflation that remains relatively stable, swing too far in either direction and you’ll have problems.

A bunch of retro games have good couch co-op support & the steam deck can emulate pretty much all of them

Zombies ate my neighbors, smash TV, 2-d brawlers like TMNT turtles in time, double dragon, and streets of rage, Goldeneye, toejam and Earl, bubble bobble
