Hello Tom. I am looking forward to the video. Your videos have become one of my yearly highlights as I find them brilliantly entertaining. :) |

Thanks team!
mixmix: You are a good spy.
onli: I was trying to make a joke about this but I see now that it was very obtuse. :) It was indeed originally "Loop Odyssey" and the window still says that when you're playing!
Windows Update: I think I fixed it and it's feeling stable now (no crashes since the blog post). I took the opportunity to add a huge chonky hard drive to make the video editing less painful (the previous was working great but "on borrowed time").
I use all of Linux, OS X, and Windows. I usually prefer developing on Linux, although Windows is finally getting good here with msys2/clang64. The main thing is that I use Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Audio DAWs, Fusion, 3D printer software, and things like that which aren't really available/supported on linux. Not to mention Call Of Duty, Black Ops 6 (which, maybe I'd be better off without so many games :)). These days the stability of Windows 11 is quite good, similar to what I experience in linux, notwithstanding this recent issue. It certainly has its annoyances, though; I found that putting it in "enterprise mode" was essential for me to enact corporate policies like "my organization does not allow the use of Cortana, sorry." (Nobody asked but I feel like OSX is neither here nor there. It is fine. Their laptop hardware is excellent, though, so it's my preferred choice for travel!)

> Windows
Yep, here's your problem |
| |
Loop Hero looks similar, but is less of an idle game. An Autorunner, but you need permanently give it attention so the hero does not die, by equipping items and lay out cards. Seems like stuck in time is coming from loop odyssey... Okay, those names are way too close.
For the PC, maybe time to run it with Linux? |
| |
Wishing you both a speedy recovery and looking forward to the new Noperts! |

Hi! No, I think it's great when people find 22 year-old blog posts :)
Seems I didn't write them down and it's been a while, but I think the words in that part are:
"Slow down, autoenzyme"
"DNA Polymerase III"
Also: Apparently the chords during that fade-out spell "FADE..."!
If you make renditions and want to share them, I love to hear covers with any level of butchering. |
| |
Thanks for continued interest in my very slow-coming movies!
Sean: I like that idea. I don't mind some pure action-based challenges, but I do think that wisdom-based battles would have fit the game's vibe better. |
| |
Can't wait for the video!! I also loved Tunic - I think the combat could have benefitted greatly from not being decoupled from the information/puzzle nature of the game. Boss fights that required wide knowledge of their respective zones in order to know how to fight optimally would have been cool. |

G'day Tom. I saw you pushed some macOS fixes and I'm keen to give it another crack. Any chance you can push your llama fork into the repo? |
| |
Can you disclose any further information on how to save the world? |
| |
hello!! if it's not too much of a bother, what are you singing under "DNA" in the title track? i like that song (and Reason + Mario Kart Skills) a lot and the only reason i haven't done my own rendition is because i'm not totally sure what's being said under there and i'm kinda afraid of butchering it. hope it's not totally weird replying under a nearly 22 year old blog post haha |
| |
mixmix: Ha. I have completed ONE MINUTE of video! (I do appreciate that you encourage me on going into technical details... it helps me to think that someone wants to hear the depth when I am making the video :))
Tim: Agreed. In contrast this is 0.1" of air-pocketed plastic; a reasonably good insulator! |

Hey, I was trying to play this earlier. I think you've got something misconfigured on spacebar.org. There's no longer a crossdomain.xml for Flash and Ruffle can't get level data because of missing CORS headers.
Wrote a quick and dirty proxy to test those issues, and got it working by faking the header/crossdomain.xml. Was kinda fun to play it again after so long. Great music. |
| |
Is there any ranked list of best nicknames? Oh yes, there is. |
| |
The paper cup thing also works because the paper is so thin that heat is quickly transferred to the water (and because paper doesn't sag under heat, heh.) |
| |
Looking forward to an hour or two of Tom 7 Academy! |

No SSL yet! My new server is "warming up" :)
Eli: The embedder fibers will improve my grip strength, making me even more powerful!!! |
| |
Also I updated FixederSys with a bunch of new characters. Basically if I ever see a codepoint not render, like if I'm looking at some Lean code and one of the brackets isn't showing up, then I will get completely sidetracked by drawing its entire codepage. |

You might want to put a clear coat on that door handle, if you haven't already. The carbon fibers can rub off and embed themselves in your skin! |

You need to add SSL so that people do not know I'm a gay pirate assassin. |
| |
wow, I was thinking out of the blue for no reason whatsoever "oh, spacebar doesn't have ssl so the message board doesn't load in lc's ifame anymore..."
I come here and there you go. ssl coming up.
maybe.
🤞🏼 |
