America Pays More For Slower Internet and Less Capacity

The average Internet connection speed in the United States may be well more than what's needed for multiplayer gaming or watching streaming video. But the country's infrastructure still lingers well behind what other nations enjoy, according to a slew of recent studies.Read more...

Background Tile Layers and Mirroring
posted by Francis Dec 18 2013 02:19 GMT in betalands

I added checkboxes FRONT, FLIP, and FLOP under the tile selection
It's hard to tell, but there are now two layers of background tiles. BACK and FRONT.
BACK is the normal layer we've always had, but now you can select FRONT. This allows you to layer background tiles on top of each other (which helps if part is transparent). The Eraser will only erase the selected layer.

FLIP will mirror the selected tile horizontally. This should help reduce the number of images you need. For example if you have a tile for the left end of a platform, you can select FLIP to use it for the right end of a platform too.

FLOP does the same as FLIP except vertically.

Tree Contest 2013 - Home Sweet Home

A time-honored tradition around here is the annual Tree Decorating Contest. This year will be a bit different. Instead of just drawing a tree like in recent years, or just placing ornaments like in the early years, we now can do much much more.

This year the tree decorating will take place in the betalands, and you will be judged based on the tree and it's surrounding environment. So trim a brilliant tree in your cozy room full of your favorite things, then share a screenshot here with the rest of digibutter.

Merry Bitsmas!

Nintendo Online Services Broken Now, Continuing Christmas Malfunctions

Nintendo's online store isn't working for many gamers at the moment—not on Wii U or 3DS—making it essentially impossible to use many of the systems' core online services. So this is why I couldn't update the Netflix app on my parents' Wii yesterday! And it's why a lot of Nintendo gamers are pulling their hair out now.Read more...

Trillek2D Alpha 0.4

Latest Version: http://st0rage.org/~hunterx/trillek/Trillek2D%200.4a.zip

AKA Gold's sort-of-unnamed attempt at making an 0x10^c alternative, AKA Betalands: Space DLC.

Arrow keys to move, Z to jump, and Q to toggle the debug stats (though those aren't much use outside of development). There's not an awful lot to see at present, but it represents the completion of most of the key framework elements of the engine (and completed faster than I have ever managed to do in the past to boot), allowing the development of more advanced fuctionality, and I figured I'd post it here so that in the event of this project ever making it past three or four public builds you can see the progression of the game throughout the development cycle.

You might need the XNA Redistributable or some other stuff to run it, but I don't have time to go find the links to them at present. If Google hasn't helped by morning I'll find the links then.

Gold Prognosticus
XIPC and XIRI are acronyms of the Propulsion Controller and Radar Interface documents included in the Docs folder of the game. At present any part containing hardware (in this case the DCPU part, the Engine or the eRadar) is automatically linked to the first/earliest built DCPU-containing part which can then query said hardware via the appropriate machine code commands; later you will be able to specify which hardware components are linked to which specific DCPUs. When the DCPU part is interacted with and the screen becomes visible, the game captures the user's keyboard and sends that to the Keyboard hardware component within the part (though the keyboard is still buggy and doesn't respond correctly/at all to particular keys at present).

You can only provide a name and specify if it's animated or not.
But soon you'll be able to specify how it moves, kills, talks, and so on...

MapleStory 2 Will Be An Enormous Game You Never Play
maplestory2.nexon.com posted by Rock, Paper, Shotgun Dec 17 2013 08:00 GMT in MapleStory

It would be a fool who ignored the power of Maple Story. However, we arguably weren’t fools for not troubling you with the news of a MapleStory 2 last month. At that point Korean publishers Nexon had only put up a useless teaser site. Now there’s a trailer to make something of a more useful announcement.

You don’t care about MapleStory, you say? Sure, it’s not exactly core RPS material. But we should be interested it in anthropologically, if nothing else. This is a game that’s seen over 67 million players, and earned more than $300m before it was even famous. It’s a phenomenon, no question. And now it’s got a really stupid CGI trailer, complete with dubstep.
