Probably they're taking too long or they're still planning something else, but supposedly it should be today the change.
Like I said, grabbed it on Epic regardless, I DO have a controller that works constantly on epic, much as I don't prefer to use it...its enough to try it out which is all I'd likely ever do anyways, its not gonna be a new NFS title lol.

EDIT:

I'd probably get more playtime out of LEGO 2K if Lego City Undercover has anything to say about the cars, I figure this is Disney Mario Kart and as much as I might enjoy it....not a play all day title. Steam can keep it if it doesn't go F2P lol.

AWA - Oh god its thursday.
Does anyone find spore fun? Chill? It stresses me no end. Its not the sort of game I'd choose to mindlessly while away the hours in either. ARP is ARP tho, so I play it. I'm betting most of you find it fun..?
I enjoy it sometimes (or used to), if I got time to spare. I don't play countless hours, usually end in 4 to 5 runs but probably 1 good run is required though🤔. I had a great run 2 or 3 weeks ago, got 25 ARP only but didn't care as I had fun.(y)

countless hours
You really can't if you want to save your ARP run, I have plenty of Steam games I'd rather load up if I wanted to play that type of game, although contrary to the one picture puzzle and shit way it works I will say that game was done rather good for a browser game.

EDIT:

I also started working on this type of game in Turbo C++ (DOS, this one I can't load without emulation of an older OS these days), but I do still have pictures of my shitty space ships that I drew pixel by pixel back then somewhere...lemme see if I can find one.

What I really loved was my friend who did the original drawings that I used to draw the ships in code also made the Mission Impossible II beat in 8 bit "beeps" using a small program I gave him to make it beep rather than have him install TC++ himself.

That shit was iconic, unfortunately the new API for beep doesn't do the sounds right so I can't reproduce it on modern Windows, it was fucking hot though :LOL:

Yeah should've worded it differently, meant to say mindless hours or something along the lines of that(y). It's actually ok for a browser game.

Glad somebody caught it...I always confuse it with actual Team Fortress 2, but yes it has NFT.

TF2 and obviously the game was what was in my head 😅

CS:GO and those IDs everybody connects to them is just how people get hacked FOR TF2, thats where my brain went sideways...I've never seen a more inviting gateway in all my life lmao.
ah, u're calling the boxes and skins etc NFT, yeah they're alike, but not NFT, as they're not on any chain XD

hey nitrous have u played the disney racing game? is it good? thinking about downloading to play with my lil bro

Wasn't trying to correct you...just saying they don't really let you. Probably don't want you to get in any extra practice 😂

No, i just claimed it on Epic, waiting for Steam (hopefully) before bothering. I love racing but no way I was dishing that cost for speedstorm :ROFLMAO:

Some of the bitmaps I used to draw using Lines and Pixels in code lol...didn't have a means to even load bitmaps back then IIRC...might have did it just for better execution (and how much effort is it to draw a 32xr32 pixel picture lol), I honestly don't remember.

Damn, I miss the good old simple days.

EDIT:

Its funny that I say this and I was looking at the assembler for this project right before that statement...but all the java do-long 100+ needed external files to code 4 useful lines makes me go absolutely batshit and never want to program again :LOL:

I had a pretty poor run the last 3 or 4 weeks - 5 or 10 ARPS at most - but, today, I won 40.

You mean rename? I don't recall DOS having a built in file converter...maybe I'm mistaken.

I do recall being able to merge old avi/mpg files by using copy file1+file2 etc. but if theres a pic converter I somehow never stumbled across it tbh.
yep rename, ren *.jfif *.jpg. It worked just renaming them :) it worked maybe because the format is similar they can be read both if renamed, but I don't think it will work more complex files.

try with softer images:ROFLMAO: there is a kind of censorship it doesn't give you adult results unless you are registered or use discord.
LINE is JP company though 😅 But mostly used on Traditional Chinese countries (Taiwan mostly).
Mainland China doesn't use it at all. They have Weixin, Baidu, QQ, anything else.
Oh I was sure it was chinese because I know some chinese people using it, later it was blocked in China I see.
Should be hard for chinese they block almost everything, unless you have vpn👀
here a list of blocked websites:

I grew up on arcades and, basically, most shmups were like that. So, yeah, I kind of enjoy it in a nostalgic way.
Same here as silent_passenger , we lived in the arcade rooms :p so we enjoy those kind of games.
By the way anyone knows a game similar to Awa Spore game?

AWA Daily Quest for today (5, 7, 25, 40 ARP+ Varying Random ARPs): Day 4 - Space Memory
Just click on the quest itself in the Daily Quest section.
https://na.alienwarearena.com/quests/4842

The sequence is shown, memorize it and repeat it. You got 3 rounds, gotta get them all right. Win and get 7 ARP, if not 5 ARP and that should complete the Mini game. Do not Refresh 👈👈

When you see the above image, click on "Fly away" and that will take you into the Bonus Spore game which can only be played once, if you refresh you will lose it, so don't refresh. Spore game is still random🔢 and even if you get above 5000 pts you will only get 5 ARP sometimes :(, So good luck to all.(y)


Path of Exile Community Event on AWA: https://na.alienwarearena.com/steam/community-event/path-of-exile-community-event

Click Join to enter, it starts in 1 day.(y)
