Another reason to be weary of adding too many options

Please tell all your nerdy friends about my little programming game/toy about coding voxel objects with Lua in a fake retro OS with excessive social features π
s.team/a/3401490/
e.g.
class MyList :List
{
static int id_cnt=0;
int my_id;
public MyList() : base()
{
my_id = id_cnt++;
}
public void Add(whatever)
{
Debug.Log(βAdded β + whatever + β to list β + my_id + β, length β + Length());
base.Add(whatever)
}
}
(may have syntax errors)
if youβre desperate, you can inherit List and override functions like Add / Remove so you can put breakpoints / prints in them, and also add a static ID counter so each one has a unique ID you can sanity check
07.02.2025 15:46 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0make sure there is only one list and you arenβt calling Add on two separate lists. make sure you arent doing anything else to the list between calls (like deserializing again or something)

so you could remake the exploit into a mechanic like marioβs triple jump or something. wouldnβt have to be exactly like that but you get the idea
17.12.2024 22:18 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0i donβt think you should leave it as-is because it has a certain randomness / kludge factor to it. if youβre hesitant to fix it maybe thatβs a sign that you should try out a clean implementation of a similar movement mechanic that requires more deliberate action on the part of the player.

Grunn is now βoverwhelmingly positiveβ on Steam! Thanks to all of you for checking out my weird game and leaving a nice review, it means a lot to me! π
11.12.2024 15:32 β π 182 π 12 π¬ 7 π 0legitimately one of the best games i played this year! i left an itch.io review, would leave a Steam review too but i don't think the itch version grants me a Steam key?

it would have to be twinsenβs odyssey.
by the way if you want to try it, make sure you play the version with good sound design, which as far as i know is hosted only on my site for the sake of digital preservation

It was really fun to see the crowd come out on Halloween night. This year, the pumpkin count has tripled from last year, and we're now at 18k pumpkins!
01.11.2024 19:18 β π 88 π 8 π¬ 6 π 0i highly recommend this if you feel like playing a lightly spooky βmetroidbrainiaβ with chill vibes overall! youβll probably have to keep a little notebook to actually beat it, but personally thatβs fun to me (i havenβt actually beat it yet)
