love this game, wasn't good at it though. I hunted this game down after reading your description since it made me really want to play it again lol


Yeah, that's it!

Thank you very much!!!


Hi!

I'm looking for a game I played here on NG... it's been uploaded in the past two years, so it's a recent one.

It's a game about deep sea diving: if I remember correctly, it's done in pixel art, and it has a vertical top-down progression.

It's about a girl who jumps from her boat and dives deeper and deeper. There are enemies (sharks and pointed-shell bearing shellfishes) that she has to avoid, but she can topple the shellfishes, pick up their shell and throw them as a weapon.

I've searched with every possible word, but I can't find it... does anyone remember its name?

Thank you!

Farewell, Munguia, you'll be missed by this community.

Response to: What dead franchises you want back? Posted August 30th, 2019 in Video Games

Blood. After the flop of Blood 2, and the horribly designed expansion "The Nightmare Levels", Blood has fallen into oblivion. Recently Night Dive Studios has made a remastered version (Blood: Fresh Supply), but it's not a new game, just a remaster of the first game. Sad thing that none of the developers/current rights holders want to do that (not Mnolith nor Atari).


Also Half-Life. I REALLY want that damned Episode 3 out (considering how HL2: Episode 2 ended with a cliffhanger.

I would want Deus Ex to be under a different publisher.

I'd like Stalker to come back, too. But there are good news about it: GSC is working on Stalker 2. It will be released in 2021, they say.

That could be, you're right, but I couldn't help see an enormous amount of irony in those news.

But as GallowJolt has said, tumblr artists who have migrated here five months ago have had a lot of time to build up followers on NG. Even if PornHub does the trick, maybe those artists will keep uploading their works both on NG and Tumblr.

My main problem is that it takes a lot of time to be ready for action, when I turn it on. I enter the password to login, the desktop appears, but then the laptop works like hell on I don't know what. I had a previous laptop with Windows 7, and it didn't behave like this.

Do you mean there's not the possibility to download & install upgrade when you want? It just downloads and installs no matter what you're doing? I'm asking because I've never noticed this, I don't use my laptop very often, so when I turn it on the first thing I do is to check for updates. I've never seen its natural behaviour on the matter.

What's the name of the add-on you said you've used?
I’m using Classic Shell, but I looked up the link and it’s no longer in development.

Classic Start appears to be its heir, as it uses the same source code.


Thank you very much, I'll try it!

I'm using Windows 7, and I consider it the best OS I've ever used. It even towers above Windows XP (which I considered the best one before 7 came out). Vista was shit.

I'm sad that Window 7 will stop getting updates, but I think I'll just move to 10 when it happens... I don't like windows 10's graphic layout, but if there's a way to customize it, it will make the process a bit less painful.

Oh look, there are my games over there, too:


http://www.arcadespot.com/game/the-bystander/

I remember that "It came from outside" was uploaded on another site just a few days it got frontpaged... My best guess is that these sites take a stroll on NG and take everything they can get their hands on without asking.

I don't think this can be called "stealing" in the meaning of the first comment of this thread, though. They've been just uploaded without permission.

Response to: Unity3d WebGL Support Posted January 2nd, 2019 in Game Development

Hi everybody!

I've stumbled upon this thread while lurking the game dev forum, and I'm interested because I'm having some issues with Unity, too.

Every time I made a WebGL build, different errors would show up in the browser's console. I'm not an expert of Unity, so I had to lurk around for a bit in various forums. In my ignorance, I've discovered that Unity implemented the possibility to build in WebGL using WebAssembly since this summer. Before then, WebGL builds were made in "asm.js". So, the WebAssembly option in Unity is quite recent. Other users have said that they started to have these kind of issues only with the latest Unity versions. My best guess is that, as of now, WebAssembly might be a part of the problem. I've tried to set the Linker Target to "asm.js", and some errors disappeared. But there's more.

After a little brain-storming with @RainbowCemetery, he advised me to turn off the "Data caching" option in the Build Settings. I've tried to do it, and now my game seems to work fine. I need to make some more tests before declaring my issues "solved", but in the meantime I wanted to drop here the few things I've learned, in hope that they could help other users with similar issues.


I don't remember all the errors that popped up in the browser's console, but here are some of them:


1) Could not create PersistentEngine - make sure PersistentEngine, prefab is present in a Resources folder. (Note: PersistentEngine was already in a "Resources" folder).


2) CompileError: wasm validation error: at offset 4568687: function body length too big


After I did the aforementioned actions, these errors seems to have gone for good. I'll let you guys know if I discover something else.

Nice that you can use the cool terms, too. Next step will be understanding what they mean, right?
A strawman is (cit. Wikipedia), "giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent". You literally said that "it's only a matter of time before we become tumblr 2.0", so I'm not twisting your words in a convenient way.

You obviously never seen what the bowels of Tumblr had it in, already we have had more furry content submitted within the last few weeks Than we EVER had Before the Exodus of Tumblr . linked directly to artists that are new or admit to being refugees from tumblr

No, I've never been in the deep bowels of Tumblr. If you don't like furry content, just skip it, it doesn't look so difficult to do. I get it, you hate furry and diaper, but should that kind of content be excluded because a few people don't like it?

we're not talking about a one off flash game that has long since been deleted , we're talking about being flooded (literally) by THOUSANDS of Artists, and a good 98 % of them will automatically get scouted once here, because they have some form of connection here .

Club-a-seal was just a SINGLE example of what I was saying. Or should I list every single flash game/animation/art in the history of NG that has been controversial?
Also, you talk about those LITERALLY THOUSANDS of new artists as if that's a bad thing. You're assuming that those thousands all post furry diaper fetishes and other things like these? I've taken a look to the art portal this morning, and in the first four pages of the portal I've seen very little furry content. That's why I called it a "slippery slope": you're seeing a catastrophic event where there isn't one.

It's not about being pure , it's about not having undesirable content.

Again: "undesirable content" is just your opinion. You're just whining because you see content you don't like. Nothing new under sun, people have been doing this since the beginning. If you don't like it, vote accordingly. But other people have the same right as you of seeing content they like on this site.

there was a reason these people had their content barred from tumblr , because it was not fit for human consumption !.

That's a slippery slope fallacy... I don't think NG will become the next tumblr. Personally, I'm glad that NG is gaining the visibility it deserves! Instead of looking at it from a catastrophic point of view, consider that the newfound (no pun intended) fame of NG will attract more people, not only artists, but also animators and maybe someone interested in developing games.
As for the reason you stated, I agree with DoctorStrongbad: poor business decision. To cleanse their site from pornbots (which users warned the staff about for a long time, but were left unlistened) and regain their place in the AppStore, they purged everything even remotely pornographic. Furthermore, I think that a lot of people considered some NG contents "not fit for human consumption" since the beginning of the site itself (Club-a-seal was met with a lot of controversy, if I remember well), so it's not that someone here gets to decide what's fit for the human eye or not.

Response to: Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! Posted December 7th, 2018 in NG News

@StarpunkD:
I remember that some time ago, there was a discussion in the Forums where a boy came out of the closet in front of everyone. I remember there were words of support, someone that was a bit skeptic about the thing (the boy claimed to be of a very young age), but I don't remember homophobia manifestations. I really hope nothing like this happens to you, NG is a very inclusive community.

@Ruehl21:
Don't worry: in every review there is a "flag" button, which can be used to report reviews that are considered "abusive" (i.e. spam, insults, etc.) for deletion, so it's very unlikely that a review section becomes a mess of stupid childish/trollish comments.

Like... I know my art style quite well to say it doesn't look awful to be voted 1 or 2, but any time I upload anything GAY here, the pics get downvoted. And don't even start talking artistic merits here.

If you really wish to give home to many artists from Tumblr, this is one thing you've got to think how to solve.
I think the idea was more to welcome Tumblr refugees to their home, not make a home for us. They have no responsibility to make us a home. They don't even have to welcome us. We're the ones coming into other peoples' homes where the ladies are enjoyed more than the men, and thus views and ratings are likely to reflect that.

I don't think it's worth worrying over, as it's only problematic if the comment section is crapped on immaturely, and even then, trolls and children are to be left alone. You should do you regardless of what others think/rate, and so should anyone else who joins. It's simpler that way. I do hope things get better for you, but I'd rather the site doesn't get changed too much to do it.
