All applications need Undo for UI changes. The amount of time I spend trying to unfuck applications that mangle their UI on a stray click or drag is just stupid. No warning, no confirmation, no explanation, no docs, somehow the toolbar or menu or window is just fucking gone. I'm looking at you VS Code but you inherited this deranged behavior from every other IDE in the past 2 decades. LOCK THE FUCKING UI AND DON'T CHANGE IT UNLESS IF FUCKING EXPLICITLY UNLOCK IT FIRST. I WILL BEAT YOUR UI DESIGNERS TO DEATH WITH A FUCKING CLAW HAMMER. KNOCK IT THE FUCK OFF. IT'S A TOOL, NOT A GODDAMN MYST PUZZLE.

New Secret Area post: It's Blood of the Werewolf.

There haven't been very many great werewolf video games out there. Does this game break that curse?

Perhaps the best remote I have ever seen.

Have you ever tried emulating #Windows98 on a #Ryzen system and had it crash spectacularly? Just within the last year or so, someone's written a patch for 95/98/98SE to fix it!

There's a floppy image you can boot your VM from, which will patch and fix your Win9x install even if it's partially installed and you hit the Explorer crash, so it doesn't even matter hugely where/when in the installation process you apply it. https://github.com/JHRobotics/patcher9x/releases/

Boosts for visibility welcome!

Man, they STILL haven't fixed that, huh.

New on Patreon, it's Blood of the Werewolf.

A "love letter to classic platformers," does this game break the curse of there being no good werewolf games?

Available now for all patrons, just $1 will get you to see it early: https://www.patreon.com/posts/blood-of-hunt-91664779

Oh goody, more copy protection. Pipe Dream uses a code wheel like the Monkey Island games, but instead of dates there are pipe sections. Fun.

Right now it's convenient because the game somehow fails to initialize its random generator properly so I always get asked the same question each time. The downside is that the gameplay is 100% identical each session as well, so that's not going to fly long-term.

🇵🇱🧱 Did you know that the game Blockout, published by California Dreams, was developed by Polish developers? 🤗
