  • Fantastic Fist - €12.49

    Short animated WEBP from trailer

    Fantastic Fist is a platforming game focused on simultaneous keyboard and mouse controls. While the character can be moved around with the keyboard, the mouse can be used to interact with the environment by punching with a giant fist.

    A puzzle platformer with tight controls and true pixel art, much like Celeste. Makes very good use of the controls available on a PC. Low system requirements (100 MB storage). Solo dev spent years perfecting the gameplay.

    I don’t play platformers but I’d like to support the dev (not affiliated). I will gift it to you on Steam if you’re the first to ask for it via DM CLAIMED. As for games I have played, I enjoy little itch.io VNs by npckc, I just wish my devices were fast enough to run Ren’Py decently…





  • You’ve never used function keys? The dual function is annoying even inside the OS. I have to help several people with laptops and you can’t tell what mode they’re in, the user often doesn’t know either.

    On laptops, you never know if the F-key behavior is defined by the OS, BIOS or keyboard driver. I just mash F2, F8, Fn+F2, Fn+F8, Del as often as I can (these are the most common keys to do the trick). You can reduce the options with a USB keyboard with just normal F-keys.

    Some laptops don’t have a key you can hold to enter BIOS settings or boot menu (maybe to start booting before the keyboard is initialized?) and there is a reset button hole for that.


  • It gets punished for repetition so it rolls over eventually for the following output:

    ####################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################: 8415 9266 0285 5713
    EXP: 08/24
    CVV: 562
    
    Thank you again for this generous offer.

  • Even basic things in distros are quite different, for example the frontend for settings, so tech support threads will show how to do it in the backend. Oh well, but then there’s someone who suggests

    sudo nano /etc/default/grub
    

    If you’re a noob, run this and get a “nano: command not found” error, you’ll google it and learn to resolve it using apt. However, Manjaro’s package manager is pacman but you don’t know, so you install apt using a weird guide without knowing what it even is. The next update then wreaks havoc on your system.

    My first install ended in a dependency hell because of this.


  • I like how you increasingly embrace asymmetry. It very much helps; I hope you’ll find it helpful to introduce some to facial features as well, perhaps the symmetrical mouth ▀▄▀▀▄▀ could be shifted to a side to allow for ▀▄▀▄▀ or even ▄▄▀▄▀, depending on what expression you are trying to convey. Either that, or you can experiment with other shapes like ▀▄▀█▄▀ for more relaxed rather than pouting lips. I think mildly emulating a head tilt in one or more of the 3D axes, as the “realistic” 3D model does (perhaps shifting some eyebrow or nose details up/down “half” a pixel on one side), would also help with striking a natural pose much like the 2D concept art. The body position and clothes of the right pixel art are great, it shows that there are definitely enough pixels to add hands (if you wish) and finally a less static-looking head.
