For feature requests that are so obviously superior that they deserve to stand out from the rest:

  • Password encrypted games
  • Allow megazeux to delete a system's mbr if it detects cheating/game's files have been tampered with
  • 3D rendering via N64's F3DEX2 Graphics Binary Interface
  • Megazeux 3.0
  • Change division by zero to output "invalid" rather than 0, which is incorrect
  • Add an alert that warns me whenever I start creating yet another over-engineered engine for a game that will never exist

<Nadir> mzxers don't make GAMES, usually
<phthalocyanine> they make experiences.
<Nadir> demos, more like
<Nadir> a glimpse into what could have been if mzx wasn't such a bore to work with
<Nadir> actually, i'm being unfair
<Nadir> i would have made mzx games if it was capable of running on more than 20 computers worldwide in 1998
<Nadir> >:D

<%Alice> functor
<%nooodl> i hear C++ has a thing called functors and they're completely different from Haskell functors...
<rorirover> the result is the most horrid thing in C++, it's basically black magic and it transforms any code you're writing into some eldritch monstrosity

Indeed. Creators of games should have the opportunity to weigh in on whether they still want their games to be played. That's why starting now MZX will automatically encrypt all legacy games with a random 256-bit AES key, which will then be appended to the game in a secure envelope using ECDSA, with the game author's public key. We have emailed unique private keys to the game authors, so in order to play any game, all you have to do is contact the author and send them the digital envelope, so that they can decide on a case-by-case basis who will be allowed to play their game. We're confident this system will put control of valuable MZX IP firmly in the hands of those to whom it belongs.

It is useless to run, since the truth is right next to you.

This is a good move. I think the majority of authors want their games to be played. I, for one, have always wanted my games to be playable by the maximum number of people possible, and am excited to continue to do so into this new era.

I've finalised a set of introductory rates for my games, and I am pleased to announce that, for a limited time being, you can get the following:

For those who want it all, you can obtain a one-time license to all Lancer-X games for only $99.99. Or if you're on a budget, but still want a good time, I'm also offering cloud subscriptions at a rate of $4.99 a month, during which you can play any Lancer-X games you like. I must stress that all rates are introductory, so you'd better get in early while they last!

I'm also eager to explore new opportunities to offer different kinds of content appropriate for the new era! You can look forward to the following:

DLC

  • Five fiendish new puzzles in Things!
  • Summer and winter outfits for Sophia in red!
  • A crazy new game mode in augh!
  • Alternate storyline in Taoyarin in which it is revealed Sadie and Sara are twins!

...and Microtransactions!

  • Stuck on a puzzle in Things? For $0.49 you can skip ANY level!
  • Running out of healing items in &? Get some handy Real Money™ Potions from the online store to help you make it though!
  • Access powerful Real Money™ weapons and armour in red, in order to gain that extra edge in combat. NOTE: Real Money™ equipment can only be combined with other Real Money™ equipment.
  • Don't want to play Necroscathe at all? Me neither! For $0.99 you can skip straight to the credits!

Um...

I played Pandora because it promised turn-based strategy and three cute waifus.

And instead, I got a UFO thing that didn't control well and kept crashing into obstacles way too easily. Also, I don't think the game can actually be finished legit.

.......

Best 5 bucks + s/h I ever spent.

we'd have to add multiplayer to those games though. too much work

a thought for red, maybe item combination should be a microtransaction ? it's technically not necessary to beat the game...

the microtransaction cost scales with the gold cost of the combination
