Better nerd than slop

I feel the closest thing to modern AI panic is probably the dot-com bubble, no?

People like to focus on extremes, I want to focus on the overlap

Guys from both of these circles please state your case.

[GENDERED] If I'm making a board game, I'm gonna make it have "masculine", "feminine", and "The third" starting position. It's just really funny.

The fact that there's so little difference between them makes this even better. It is pointlessly gendered, but it's also very funny in my opinion.

Maze generators I built in Scratch

The last 3 are special because they don't use the "pick random x to y" block.

The tiny red and green pixels and the red text in each image were edited in, everything else is generated by a singular sprite.

I just wanted to save a screenshot image... And somehow I created an .exe file...

No idea how. It's size is 85.4 kilobytes. Does nothing when executed. The name is the thing I wanted to screenshot.

Why was this mechanic so common in casual games?

Level drain: when the player loses power after dying or getting hit. Most games handle this mechanic in one of the two ways: one where the power level also acts as health bar (but unlike the normal health bar, you start at ONE HP, instead of max HP), and the other one where the player loses power in addition to getting hit ("just because"). In both cases, the power is usually somewhat permanent, although in the second case it can also be a temporary bonus.

For some reason, a lot of casual shoot'em ups have this mechanic and I have no idea why (it also applies to every single attack btw). What do I mean by "casual"? Well, from my experience, their level and boss design is more focused on variety and presentation rather than difficulty, and they tend to be very slow paced too. Is this some sort of way to create extra variety or just a thoughtless bandwagon?

Examples of the first category: Star Defender, Alien Outbreak 2 Invasion, Crusaders of Space, Laser Age (not casual, but it's still worth mentioning).

Examples of the second category: Chicken Invaders, Astro Fury, Blast Radius, Last Galaxy Hero, Arcadrome, Alien Stars, Platypus (only borderline casual).

Any reason in particular this trope is so common? (It mostly appeared in the games from 2000-2010)

Her name is Wishmaker :3. And yes, I made her long before becoming active on reddit or knowing that this sub existed. The lil guy is named Oswald.

Bonus question: can you guess the controls for this game? :3

The art and the music are made by me. Except for that one explosion.
