Christmas break gaming for me has been The Witcher 2 and The Long Dark

Finished the Witcher 2.. The Long Dark is an indie survival game in alpha, really great.

Anyone play Papers Please?

Played and successfully finished Papers Please, ending 20/20. I had fun, but probably wouldn't play it again.

Loved the demo, got the game in a Humble Bundle IIRC, never played again..

The dev Lucas Pope is working on an interesting project right now called "Return of the Obra Dinn", has a neat tech demo out: http://dukope.com/

It boasts a 3D environment displayed in 1-bit rendering.. pretty neat

I have to admit I didn't know what 1-bit rendering was, but after a little research I have to say the results can be pretty neat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-5kJz1lcsM

Gimme 1-bit mario, not some bad video of a satellite. Do it right.

Random stuff Fleex found on the Internet: thing that guesses the gender of an essay's writer.

I pumped in several of the short stories from my website. Gender Guesser thinks that I might be a guy, but is only about 50-55% sure (60% in one case), except for one case in which it thought I was a chick. It claims that this may be because I am European, though I am not.

I'm not surprised.

Delightful, yet another website that assumes binary gender and enforces groundless gender stereotypes.
