Nice job. Adding double hex and virtual numpad are great gameplay additions.
Hope to test it quickly. I would love to be able to contribute, but I guess to entering the logic of the engine and the way code is structured is quite time consuming?
I have nice time enjoying the Might and Magic 6 game on the MM8 engine using https://www.celestialheavens.com/forum/10/16657 [External Link] but these "old" games were brutal (or bug?): at one moment, guards of all cities now attack me for no reason. ... all that for these questions: Do you coded and propose a autosave between turns and before battle in rotation (for example, user ask for 10 turns to be autosaved and callable, and these ones are removed for the older and save for the newer turn as we advance turn by turn along the game)? And some sort of undos during combats (may be hard to include?)?

They still miss that giving a real battery metric is important for buyers. Battery capacity that is measured in weight or number of cells produced or "Up to x Hours" as they do, doesn’t provide insight into the actual performance of the battery.
Watts per hour is the standard of measurement for a battery.
If they want to do better than the competition, they can provide in addition:
- the energy density, that is typically measured in watt-hours per liter
- the battery cycle life, that is the number of full charge and discharge cycles a battery can achieve before its capacity level drops below 80%
- the calendar life, that is the degradation amount that occurs over years (not cycles) while the battery is either inactive or stored, while still maintaining its energy capacity.
- the charge rate or speed, that is how long it takes a battery to be recharged after use, often measured in time and capacity range (i.e. 20 min to charge from 10-80% capacity)
- the impedance, that is the amount of resistance within the battery when stimulated by an electrical current, as high levels of impedance means that energy will be converted to heat rather than a useful current when the battery is used.

I bought it 20€, and still found it a bit expensive compared to more "replayable" and longer games. I had the same feeling with Robocop: rogue city for similar price and Elden ring for far higher price.
In my opinion, that's not a Skyrim in which you have a lot of stuffs and exploration to do and for which you can easily relaunch a game one year latter. I don't think I will relaunch a game for God of war. The witcher3 has more well-written stories and far more many and different quests and deep-stories. God of war gameplay is well balanced and you has the feel of being a god for sure (but at the end a bit repetitive). No postman quest but quite linear quests (2 or 3 max in parallel, not more).

Quoting: StellaDo you think God of War is worth the 19.99 asking price?For me it was 20h (to 40h max of people around me) of fun. Few quest and very linear but with a true and good-written story (even predictable and if you know a bit of mythology, with limited surprises except you are on the unusual Loki's side) and a beautiful and amazing artistic design and direction that is memorable.

Only in english, reaaaaallly????
I have all in french and some in english. In an era of LLM, only proposing one language for a "book" app or a game mainly based on reading is really outdated and incomprehensible

Nice, you are at the "logistic" stage. What's next?

Quoting: Naibvery nice... but :( starting to get enough points to fit to a sigmoid... if that inflection point is correct, are we looking at like 3% as the settling point

Linux smashes another market share record for August 2024 on Statcounter

To get back to the news: As this increase is clearly due to Chineses:
What's happen in China so people are moving into linux that fast? End of windows XP or pirate licences? Some USA's laws on patriotic stuff? Political decision from China's government? Governmental changes in OS making this fast increase in Linux?
Do we know why?

Quoting: PyrateI wish there's better ways to run these statistics, as I know many people including myself either directly or indirectly use browser agent switchers. On Librewolf (what I use), everyone has a Windows user agent by default.I also use a windows user agent on all my computers and on the computers I installed in my family and friends, and for long (since ~2000) that's why linux is always underestimated on personal computers. Like Steam always asks me a report the ten minute I will be on my dual boot testing if the game that had trouble on my linux is due to OS, while I spend 90% of my (gaming) time on linux.

May be they will make other documentary about Impressions Games with Mike Gingerich, Keith Zizza and Chris Beatrice?
