Donkey Kong Bananza โ€“ Nintendo Direct | Nintendo Switch 2

I was trying to think what Donkey Kong Bananza reminded me of, in terms of the new design and all the destruction, then it clicked...

I hate how in my language, the word for gaming and gambling is used interchangeably. On the bright side, dozens of gambling sites were just DNS-blocked in Norway, and EU/EEU is in the works of making moves to further strangle the invasion of gambling in gaming.

Had a great time at the Norwegian Game Awards this friday!

There were lots of great games and nice people. And we even got a nomination for best gameplay design!

And while we didn't win anything, it was an incredible experience, and we learned a lot!

The Host can see when you leave the game window.
He will call you out if you leave for too long during your turn.

Nice details! I have played the Arsonate demo a lot, and I think it is incredible, and it has actually inspired a lot of ideas in our team!
I'm really excited to play the full game when it releases! Keep up the good work! ๐ŸŽ‰

It's a deckbuilder where you collect and upgrade cards and tiles. You have to place the domino pieces to score points, and use different cards to score even more, and multiply that score!
It's very heavily inspired by Balatro: bsky.app/profile/play...

Luckily the previous issue was a really easy fix, just a bool that needed setting!

The dominoes themselves work very well now, still some minor tweaks to be done, but overall in a great state!

Now begins the work of implementing the interesting stuff!

Your code VS the code she tells you not to worry about. ๐Ÿค”

We could probably make it even simpler, but at one point you have to call it good enough. At least it isn't 3 pages long anymore!

(It's the code responsible for position and rotation of the dominoes when placed)

Maybe it's DRM technology? Like when you try to take screenshots of movies and tv-series on streaming sites?

(Which I of course have never tried to do myself, obviously)
