PSA - if you buy Bubsy 4D on Switch or Switch 2, they just give you the other version for free. 2026 - Bubsy 1, Sonic 0

Own the original Sonic Frontiers on Switch? There's no upgrade path to the new $49.99 Switch 2 'Definitive Edition' — Sega shadow-dropped it today for Sonic's 35th. (1/2)

I'm still pumped for it! I think mode 7 racing can be just as deep, if not more, than more topographical games. Just gotta reign in that background a bit.

Also - look how high the horizon reaches in my gif - the road takes up almost 80% of the vertical span of the playfield. It looks to be a bit over 50% in yooka, meaning there is more visible background that is scrolling.

I've seen some folks comment that the intensity of the parallax scrolling makes them nauseous, and I think I know why. For whatever reason, it looks like they are using a very low FOV angle for the camera in this game. It makes the camera turn overly intense.

On top of all that - it looks like they have multiple background layers, that are scrolling at different speeds? I actually can't look at it too closely cuz I start to get motion sick. Either way, they should rework the background a bit or have some accessibility options.

Replaylee feels like a whole new game - goes way beyond a standard remaster. Worth it for anyone who loves 3d platformers. I liked the original, but replaylee is a top 5 3d platformer alltimer for me.

Thanks for playing! You faired pretty well after a race or two! That snow level is a difficulty spike.

@kasdorf_w I don't know that I would get it right away if I weren't familiar with air riders. Maybe "a 5 minute vehicular battle Royale! Power up, foil your opponents, then compete in one of the stadiums many challenges!" I think it needs to be a little shorter.

Lovely work! Just tried the demo and it's the best feeling platformers I've played since bananza. Can't wait to dig in to the full version.

I'm always looking for an 'easier' way to interact with threejs - its such a neat library, but working with 3D, in general, is tricky for a very green pico8 dev such as myself. I might try to make my own 'baby' api to draw block geometries and billboard sprites?

In the future, I think I will start with a longer, more detailed design doc - I blew through tokens not due to Claude's mistakes, but my own lack of definition around some things.

I don't have tons of time to develop lately - so I vibe-coded a game for ludum dare 59. It was a mixed experience - pretty neat to bang out a game in pure JS and using #threejs . @mrdoob

@JoolsWatsham Cheers! I'm still plugging away on my second playthrough with chicken and wiggle. Maybe you can't comment yet... But will online courses be shared across platforms?
