No flashcart sellers use PayPal; it's against PP policy, and the retailers are liable to have their accounts suspended, funds locked, etc. A handful of sites use other payment processors that are more lax on piracy rules, but I can't speak for yeahgeek.

I don't know if there'd be a difference in shipping speed or anything to Greece, but eachmall.me has them for a few bucks less, and they've got a few different payment options. I can't say I've had a bad experience with them, at least not as far as flashcarts are concerned.

Just got my GW3DS from yeahgeek yesterday. If you're weary about using a credit card, I would look into if your CC company or bank has a VCC (Vrtual Credit Card) option. Allows you to basically generate "burner" credit card numbers with spending and age limits to use for purchases like these.

Yeahgeek was fine with the VCC I created (set the limit to a buck or two more than the invoice price due to current conversion) and shipped the order out just fine.

Eachmall, on the other hand, would not accept the VCC and demanded a picture of the physical credit card. Even explaining to them that there was no physical card (and including a screenshot of the Virtual Credit Card) wasn't good enough, so the order got canceled and refunded (to the virtual credit card...)

Card is genuine, ordered on 11/22/14 (a Saturday), marked as shipped on 11/24 (Monday), arrived 12/8. So 2 weeks and change.

I bought mine using PayPal from one of the trusted resellers on the GW site. It cost $3 more, but I didn't have a supported CC on any of the other sites so this was the best option for me.

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
