Switch 2

It still amazes me how many people think batteries have infinite rechargeability.
I worked as a VP for the IT dept for 4 years and people always brought me their work laptops confused that after 4 years would not take a charge.

You can replace the battery in the Switch.
You have to be very very careful though - work slowly. The battery is glued down.
Best to take pictures the whole way and use a magnetic dish to keep the screws because you're going to have quite a few. A si*snip*

Looks cool. :)
Another fun effect might be to take a list of all positions and shuffle it then deal them so they scatter all over in random patterns. :D

Have you considered impossible situations such as a switch getting spawned between two turrets?
Or a dead end with a turret infront?
I've not seen these but I'm just thinking about ways the*snip*

I would guess they're defining points for the texture(s) or screen in reverse order.
Maybe (right, bottom) -> (left, top)

I checked out just before the female doctor.
I have no problem with lead female roles but it didn't seem appropriate to me.

Yes
You got action RPGs.
Platforming RPGs (which people annoyingly call Metroidvanias)
Tactical RPG/Strategy
Dungeon Crawlers/first person
Rogue like games
The list goes on...

I have added an example of the stuff above done in BlitzMax and grilled some burgers.
BlitzMax doesn't have full first class functions so I've had to settle for function references.
It's not a very expressive language ...

[BMAX] - Generics, Function References, Boxing, Type Extension

18th June 2025
You will need BlitzMax NG for this.
This shows how to extend a Type in Blitzmax and add additional interfaces using function references.
I would have papered over the superclass' methods but BlitzMax wasn't having the method signature change...

Looks like an interface to a collection such that you don't have to provide typical loops.
There is a time and place for loops but they can easily be removed in some cases by more elegant operations.
These operations usually are what's known as &*snip*

It's interesting that a child can classify with a single image.

That's not terrible unless the inside of your house is that hot.
Throw on some shorts. ;)
A swamp cooler and a fan works well if you don't have AC.
