This is amazing news! I'll but it on GOG when the semester ends :D

I'd assume it would be easiest to convert ActionScript to Haxe with something like https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/as3hx [External Link]. Haxe used to be able to compile to AS, with comparable or better performance. Therefore some Flash developers already used it, and when Flash was sunset that's how the conversion project started.

It's a bit sad only 2k people have filled out the statistics. I was expecting GoL readership to be much bigger!

The description is interesting, but the UI has the opposite effect.

I definitely approve of a contest for bug reporting. Bug squashing is underrated!

I'm mostly going for AMD because they have an integrated GPU good enough to avoid Nvidia.

Doesn't work in Firefox with all the privacy options turned on. It also tries to use asm.js despire Firefox's excellent support for WebAssembly.

[UnityCache] 'https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/1899446/Build/Nethercard%20Kingdom.wasm.framework.unityweb' successfully downloaded but not stored in the indexedDB cache due to the error: Error: indexedDB access denied
Invoking error handler due to
SecurityError: The operation is insecure.

Does work in Chrome, and without asm.js. Weird

Quoting: razing32This feels like a canary in the coal mine in some way.
All of the warnings about centralized servers , no LAN or private servers , etc.
Seems this can hit any game any time
And for the people mentioning Tencent , they are still spreading their web of "transactions" and "aquisitions"

I miss the old days.
Game was released (maybe had a patch later), focus was single player , you had LAN and could play with private servers.
Now games are online , focus is multiplayer and publishers decide how the game is played and it is on their whim what will happen next.

I think the last patch added Steam Remote Play together support, so you will still be able to play with friends against bots. Not as fun as online multiplayer, but something. In March RL on Linux will end up in the same situation as on PS4 - you only have local single and multiplayer. On PS4 you'd have to pay for a PS subscription to play multiplayer, but I don't see people doing that.

I was a beta tester for the Dragon Evo ~a year ago. I'm glad they managed to finish it after suspending work for some time last autumn.
