Oh, legitfetch? Which is 100% legit tool and definitely not a bash script just pretending to be a real thing that I might’ve made over two evenings?

One thing it can definitely do is look presentable.

Just making sure here, wall•pape•r?

I can neither confirm nor deny at this time.

Funny, sounds like a Lumon propaganda to me..

For me the amazing part was somehow pacing. Every single time I felt like I am starting to cruise through levels, I was knocked down really hard.. and my brain exploded more than a few times.

Stunningly, this created one of the best mechanics for me — “if it was too easy, you probably missed a valuable lesson there”.

Arvi created something special, where every bit of that frustration pays off at least tenfold.

Hey, they started with millimeters so any additional info is kinda passable (in my books) as a visual / imagination stimulus.

Sometimes it can be really helpful, like with the distance from Earth to Moon, almost 385 000 km — that’s yeah, a lot, this gives the facts.

..but, when I found out that all the planets from our solar system packed next to each other would fit into this gap with some space to spare — this gives the perspective.

Is there any way to add it to App Library without adding it to the home screen? If there is, I don’t need the app at all, probably.

Yeah, I have a tab opened to check it out too, do they have any ios app?

Yeah.. as remasters/remakes go, this would be one of my favorites just right next to Crash Bandicoot series and New 'n' Tasty Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee. Oh! Tetris Effect kinda sorta fits in this group too.

All of those titles deserved some new generation graphics and polish, none of them lost their fun value, vibe or overall quality in the process. Plus there is no need to emulate anything, no crack-mod-tango, so bonus points for making some of the best games ever created widely accessible.

If one day, any studio would put the same amount of effort into Driver series or Remedy would go full nostalgia and re-do the Max Payne series — oops.. I think, I ventured too deep into fantasy lands here.

I am a simple man.. Some Stardew Valley — I try to visit my farm every so often, a little THPS1+2 action when it’s raining lately and I am waiting for a perfect / slow morning to tackle Gorogoa.

There should be a special division in all patenting offices called Burning With Fire ™
