I personally use 3 on other devices. Bing on my main, but Ecosia and SearchScene for other devices. If you have never heard of Ecosia or SearchScene they are basically free charity

Depends of the use of search: google lumendatabase its great example to find piracy links and yes its fault from google providing the DCMA copyright on that page

Bing: Always use for image search video porn,thats the only good its from bing they dont have the same value searcher rival like google.

Duckduckgo: The best searcher to find your shit without worry for 3d party search trackers

The others listed from OP like ecosia i dont use it.

Have gotten tired of being tracked by Google.
The first time I found out to what extent information is stored was when I checked the Ad Settings page of their service and saw their Compiled Profile of who I am as a Consumer, based on my Searches.

For the last year or so I've used DuckDuckGo; I have to admit, they weren't that good before but they are getting better in Results. Still, they don't understand Syntax and Contextual Searches as well as Google, so putting a question in a sentence doesn't work out as well as on Google.

So if I really do need to cast a wide net because I don't have an accurate way of expressing my Search then I'd go into Google, and clear out My Activity afterwards.

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    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)
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    im taking a break for today anyway

    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.
