@killyourfm The magic of arcade games. :)Have you played Pacman 256 yet? Much recommended, especially in (local) multiplayer!

@CliffWade While I haven't posted, liked or retweeted *anything* on Twitter since joining Mastodon, I'm still scrolling through the algorithmic feed from time to time. Which is funny since I *never* did this in the past! I have always read the chronological one. But it's really effective at both bubbling up the most important stuff as well as a bunch of random shit – which stops me from using it rather quickly again. 😂Guess that still counts as "Yes, I still use Twitter", though...

@ninjadodo @Norrox That's only possible as long as this server is online, though! Given that @aras applied for including this instance in the official server covenant, I'd assume there's at least one other person with emergency access & we would be warned in advance. But since this instance still isn't included there, it's hard to tell if this assumption is correct... 😐https://joinmastodon.org/covenant

@outfrost Just use the godot3-bin package from the AUR then?I really don't see any issue here: #Godot4 is officially considered stable and #ArchLinux is a rolling release distro, so providing 4 over 3 by now makes total sense!

@outfrost That's... just how updates work? They are not forcing anything onto you. It's YOU who ran the update! If you want to keep things as they were, you know, don't update?Also, I don't see why you consider #Godot4 "unsupported"? It's not like it's unusable or anything...To be clear: I'm in no way against a separate package for Godot 3 in extra. However, there already is an AUR package for it and if enough people install that, it would likely be moved to extra eventually.

@killyourfm Also, Lucy (the developer) is on Mastodon. If you enjoy the game, maybe leave her a follow: @kinmoku :)

#TIL that classic #MineSweeper can actually require guessing. The first cell you click at is guaranteed to not be a mine, but everything else is randomly generated and thus might not align nicely.That's why more modern versions (e.g. https://minesweeper.online/) include a "No guessing mode" that can be fully reasoned through.#GameDev #GameDesign #RetroGames

I miss the days where posts under the #Godot hashtag were actually about the #GodotEngine, and not #Unity...(And yes, ironically I'll add to that with this post myself!)

Yesterday, I replied to a question in the Godot forum with a wrong answer (since I misunderstood the question at first). Today, if you google "godot delete pattern", that answer will be displayed as a "featured snippet" right on top. 🙄 (The correct answer is in the same thread, but so far Google hasn't picked up on it)#Godot #GodotEngine #Gooogle #Enshittification #AI
