It is if you have an old video card. :( Sorry, but the game requires at least DirectX shader support v1.1 or better. (Even if I did tweak it to run on a lesser video card, you wouldnt like it.)

A very great game! I must say, I haven't seen a game like this for awhile. One question - Will you make it a Shareware version, and then add a price for this game, or is it going to stay free for ever?

I'm just saying so that this is higher quality than many other games, wich require you to pay 20$!

Keep up the good work!

At present, this and all future versions (of which one is coming soon) will always be free to download.

A really nice game! I keep playing it when I have free time. One small thing - It is sometimes hard to grab invaders. Perhaps it could be possible to enlargen the area below the pointer that lets you grab an invader?

a neat game but...windows only? :(
a linux native would be kind of nice (although i believe it can be emulated easily).

also any chance of making a 1.01 patch instead downloading the whole game again? my connection is kind of slow you know :p

anyway great game, i really enjoyed it. reminds me of the good ol' black & white (the hand is almost identical).

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
