In #SuperMarioBros3 the card matching mini-game only has 8 different layouts because of a bug in the shuffling #algorithm

I think bars should have #gaming #karaoke nights; people take turns playing whatever #videoGames they are good at on a projector for the whole bar to watch. Get a drag queen to be "Master of Controllers" describing the action and calling up new players.

It's not great, but my favorite part is how it's all these cartoons like Mickey and Donald Duck and then Jack Sparrow's there like "Wait, I'm in this too!?"

One of my favorite #Steam games (by hours played) is #TerraTech

It's like #Legos but in #videogames form

It's had #crafting for a while but not in #multiplayer until now

#Communities, #groups, #magazines, whatever they are called are implemented as #Actors in #ActivityPub. They are basically just *very* popular users who boost a *lot*.

You can't just distribute them across instances the way normal actors do. Whichever server hosts @technology@lemmy.ml or @technology@beehaw.org is going to get HOSED on the regular.
