  • You waste a few hundred megs of disk storage and a few gigs of RAM to get the same shit as https://totaljerkface.com/happy_wheels.tjf but with achievements.

    Was about to mention the Flash version at happy_wheels_flash.tjf but they broke it. Ran fine at least last year, I tried it.

    The only good thing I see here is offline support, although someone could code it as a userscript using “service workers”. I know the totaljerkface won’t, because money. If you really want, you could just open the Newgrounds demo (featuring the Flash exclusive “Green hills” level) in desktop Ruffle. You will get bored of it after a bit but if you get a few dozen more Flash games it’s fine. Oh, and the actual Newgrounds page for it has controller support, it says so in the sidebar. One of the things advertised on Steam is controller support, so I guess that’s nothing new as well… On Newgrounds it’s not analog, but I don’t see why anyone wouldn’t be using a dpad here anyway.




  • So, what is is it? The web version + a web browser shoved onto Steam? The flash version and flash player shoved onto Steam (like “Transformice”)? The mobile version?

    The system requirements say “Any GPU with WebGL” which sounds like it’s the fucking web browser one, although the actual game uses a 2D canvas and not WebGL I am pretty sure.

    EDIT: yup it’s a browser. For a free to play browser game.

  • It should be an sqlite database. The modern docs say so, I am not exactly sure if it was the case in 2010.

    Is it bigger than 0 bytes? Try opening in https://sqlitebrowser.org/ . I don’t know if it uses SQLcipher (probably not), but if you are using the Windows installer you should probably tick that there just in case.

    EDIT: just a thought, if you can’t get it just give it to me (not here tho, Tox F857EB6604B99A58ADD0965CEDFCBF78CF0BDF939DA7290D8D84117D8DE30C3F91B5EA9226E8), I will try some basic fuckery on it and do splitsies. It can go in these ways:

    1. Nobody gets your coins - sad
    2. I get your coins and lie - sad, but also you kinda didn’t loose anything
    3. I get your coins and give you ~1BTC - bliss
