Windjammers is awesome. If you're ever looking to try a different game that's similar-ish, Bang Bead for Neo-Geo is also great!
Oh man I haven't thought about this game in years. I grew up with the NES version. Such a fun game with awesome music. Now that I think about it, I don't think I ever even played the original arcade version. Thanks for the post, fantastic write up :)
Recently fished out my PSP-1000 from my closet only to find the battery ready to pop. Need to look into disposing of it now before anything bad happens -_-
You would have to ask @darklightxi@lemmy.world regarding the play store beta thing.
But we have early builds that get uploaded to IzzyOnDroid. You can also get them directly from GitHub.
The last release was 2 weeks ago unfortunately due to irl stuff. But the hope is to have a new nightly soon :)
Create a comment view has been reworked and is in the codebase though there are still improvements to be made.
With the new create comment view, the create button is on the top bar so it's always accessible. Touching the top bar will not close the create comment dialogue either.
There is still the issue of a comment draft not persisting and your place in thread being lost after creating a comment. The latter being a particularly annoying user experience for myself. I'm hoping one of us will be able to address that soon. A few of us haven't had a lot of time to work on Thunder lately, myself included :(
Yeah the subscriptions not properly refreshing on account change is super annoying. As a work around, hitting refresh on the feed view will refresh the sub list. Definitely something I want to get around to fixing soon.
Hmm I don't think that functionality exists at the moment. The good news is that the create comment screen is currently getting a major overhaul. It will soon match the create post screen. So I imagine posting images in comments will get added then :)
I don't think it's fair to say not to bother with Chrono Cross but I do agree it's important to stress how unrelated to Chrono Trigger it is. As a sequel it fails. But as its own stand alone JRPG, I think it's great.
Personally I love Chrono Cross and how different it was. And the music is ridiculously good (Yasunori Mitsuda main Chrono Trigger composer.)
I think it's worth a go. It starts you somewhere in the middle of the story so you get action straight away. So anyone who tries it will know quickly if it will be up their alley without having to invest too much time.
