#553 - News Imagination |
Weekly NewsletterNews Imagination#553 - Thursday 03rd February, 2022groups.google.com/group/socoder-newsletter Every Thursday, screwing furniture together. Hello WorldMum and My birthday's this month, hers this week, and mine towards the end of the month. We both decided new bedroom drawers would be the best way to go. We got Mum two bedside chest of drawers from Amazon, but as of typing, only one of them has been built up. With my distinctly rubbish levels of energy and fitness, I'm absolutely freakin' exhausted from doing one. We're probably going to leave it a couple of days before tackling the second. Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be tackling my room. Clearing out probably a decade of untouched mess, and building up a couple of larger ikea drawer sets. Given how knackered the 3-drawer slimline bedside cabinet left me, not really looking forward to building up a giant 6-drawer, 5.5ft chest of drawers!!.. Hmmm.. This might kill me!! socoder.net/?Topic=8594 SoCoderFlapping OnRychan continues to work on Flap Happy, squeezing out a few more morsels of memory as he shaves the poor bird... In between rescuing a PC! socoder.net/?GotoPost=82378 iPad CodingPakz is getting on quite well with Codea on iOS, which allows you to code games straight on the iPad.Woot! He's now discovering the horrors of having to write things for different resolutions and screen ratios. socoder.net/?Blogs=82377 What Have You DoneThe return of the irregular thread where we discuss all the things we've done during the month.socoder.net/?Topic=8590 SoPuzzlingWorldly Wordle SuccessThe online game Wordle is a direct rip from the ITV gameshow Lingo.Jay knows this, because last January 2021, Jay also ripped off the gameshow and put it into the Shoebox of Games. (Wordle wasn't a thing until October 2021) Wordle took on stratospheric levels of popularity, and has now been bought by the New York Times.. Even though it's just a basic word game idea, and is quite frankly as much of a rip off as Jay's version. The creator of Wordle pockets millions. Jay's version continues to be ignored. Jay isn't pissed off about this, or the 100 different newspaper-ready puzzles that he coded in Foldapuz, either. Nope. Not at all. Congratulations to the Wordle guy. socoder.net/?Topic=8595 SoRetroJavaCPC DesktopA new CPC emulator, for Win/Mac/Linux, that uses Java as its core.Includes the ability to load from virtual tapes (using wav recordings of the originals), as well as having some nice hardware plugins emulated, and more. sourceforge.net/projects/javacpc/ Puzzle Bobble C64What better way to showcase the colourful palette of a C64 than with a nice port of Puzzle Bobble.
