So like a grant organization? They exist: indie-fund.com

I don’t see how community servers help your case, though. Those don’t help things like security vulnerabilities.

I also don’t know what you mean about delisting being stolen money. Delisting just means it stops being sold. You can still download and play the game.

Your money wasn’t stolen if a game was de-listed. If you already paid for the game, you can still download it. De-listed just means that people who don’t already have it in their library cannot purchase it anymore. That’s not theft.

pathos,

Sorry, I meant ‘removed’ and all other forms of it.

So, these games failed because they did not have:

  1. Funding/sustainability
  2. Reaching critical number of players
  3. Content creation/marketing

And you can bring them back if you can just get:

  1. Funding/sustainability
  2. Reaching critical number of players
  3. Content creation/marketing

This feels like tautological reasoning. Like "X would be true, if X were true".

pathos,

Good point, but there are other reasons, like just be social, as well as sticking it up to the AAA studios.

Beautiful writeup. I miss the days when games shipped with data files in easily user-acessible formats.

This one being moddable is cool. I love tetris worlds weirdo eye monsters, do they come back in elements?

atomicpoet,

They’re gone. No mascots. No background worlds. Just the “elemental” machine skins.

Tetris Worlds had eye monsters because THQ wanted a console-friendly mascot game.

Tetris Elements has industrial pipes because ValuSoft (THQ’s budget imprint) wanted a cheap, self-contained PC release that didn’t require any cross-project asset wrangling.

tpihkal,

I loved Tetris Worlds!

Never heard of this one, looks cool.

My current favorite is Tetris Plus, the versus mode with the little professor guy trying to get the treasure while a spiked ceiling keeps falling is fun. When one player fills 2 or more lines it adds random junk to the other player’s board.

atomicpoet,

Tetris Plus is quite neat because, not only is there PlayStation and arcade versions, it was released for Game Boy too.

I regularly play it on my cabinet—it’s got a great PvP mode.

The game says it uses the modern SRS rotation system. But pieces spawn in odd orientations, like the letters they’re named after. Wall kicks are inconsistent. The configuration files literally include a “–99, –99” coordinate—developer shorthand for “don’t use this”—as an actual kick entry. It shipped like that.

I love people getting deep into the mechanics of a game to optimize their play, the kind of stuff that casual observers don’t notice.

This is a great read, I’m actually working on a tetris game right now so this is good inspiration

ColeSloth, do games w [Megathread] Payments Processors & Collective Shout VS NSFW games

Wow. “Mega threads” are exactly how reddit buries away news they don’t really want people to see or care about.

Devmapall,

Huh, I never really thought about it when I was on reddit but I sure ended up ignoring the megathreads.

On steam there’s often dedicated threads to post bugs/questions and somehow they make it harder for me to find a problem or solution also. I usually will find what I need in a different thread.

Maybe the fact that Lemmy is smaller will help

That’s probably why it is pinned, to burry it away from everyone eyes 🙄.

I had multiples report about the various topics that popped over the weekend, because how many of them there was on a span of a few days. Moderating them was a nightmare, so I tried to politely ask everyone to consolidate on the same thread. Somehow it ended up in insults, so I had to close it. First I considered selecting another topic, but most of the remainding ones were to foccused on one part of the issue to do such thing.

Thus, the megathread.

Trust me, I’m not a fan of the concept either, mostly because how time costly it is to maintain it, but that the price to pay to not have to spend twice the time sorting repports on various threads.
