Brokie Board

I’ve been cooking in the kitchen for the past month. I’ve been meaning to make use of my 3D printer to produce a product. After getting back into Guitar Hero, through Clone Hero, I’ve realized the game really relies on the controller that comes with it. While I do own a GH controller, because it’s made for the XBOX 360, it requires a dongle in order to interact with my PC. At the same time, if I wanted to get a plug-and-play GH controller, it would cost +$100, as the only available models are over a decade old, and in high demand within the community. The controller is still any other X-Input, only with the buttons moved to look more like a guitar, with that I had an idea.

Indie In: An Indie Publisher And Arcade

I’ve had a bunch of business ideas over the years, so I’ve decided to post them onto here, for me to flesh our or to get stolen. And if you do end of stealing this idea, at least give me some royalties! >:P

Alright, get this. So, when it comes to indie game studios, developing traditional games, it takes a lot of time and resource to make a game that is fleshed out and complex. Arcade games, on the other hand, are made to be simple. Any Joe-Shmoe should be able to walk up to a machine, button mash, and enjoy himself. While developing arcade games are easier, the complexity comes from the hardware side of the product. Arcade cabinets are nearly always unique to the game, bulky, and expensive. As such, no indie company in the world would ever want to tap into the arcade market. Also because of its slow death

Xonotic Is a Pretty Fun Game

I’ve always been going back and fourth on playing Xonotic. It’s a damn fun game, and a real party favor, as I’ve even managed to host a few LAN parties.

The second OSU Xonotic LAN party, was a blast!

With how much Zoomers love their fast paced games, with no long term story (I’m guilty of playing Rougelikes all the time too), I’m surprised the Arena Shooter genre still cannot get a footing as a common game played. Whenever I open up the server browser, it’s DEAD dead! Only stable server is an instagib CTF 24/7 game. The HL2:DM community is more alive than this! (SOCAL #1!! BEST HL2:DM SERVER 2018!)

The Future of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

It’s been nearly four months since the release of Counter-Strike 2, leading to the quick death of CS:GO. And after playing the new game for some time, I really have not been enjoying it. The new subtick system makes the game feel more like you’re playing on ice. Along with this, while the new graphics are nice, my 2016-era hardware doesn’t enjoy it. This hardware requirement is even worse with modding!
