This has to be some kind of wasm construction right? I've hardly ever seen such a smooth but rich experience on web.

There's no WASM, it's mostly vanilla JS, together with the PixiJS library, which does 2d WebGL rendering. It has in-house libraries for text rendering, particle systems and the such. It's not super strong, but as long as you understand the limitations of the browser and try to adapt to the client's machine, you can get a very decent experience in. I hope this game sparks a bit of a trend of trying to make more genuin…

nice! I am building a basic game engine for html story telling / RPGs and simple adventures. aiming for a disgaea + pokemon feel

This implementation is amazing. Is it humans on top 40? The instant replay is genius! I almost can't believe my eyes.

I can confirm it is. It's certainly amazing. There's a very lively and developed competitive scene.

If you're interested to learn more there's a couple sites that teach advanced techniques ( https://four.lol and https://harddrop.com ).

I've also been playing this game for about 4 years and I'm nowhere near that level, but the progression you're able to make by learning new techniques is still very rewarding.

Hmmm, well, his very first post ("Who Doesn't Go Nazi?") is about being an anti-vaxxer, saying how anti-vaxxers would resist becoming Nazis, and comparing anti-vaxxers to the Jews, which already has me questioning his critical thinking skills. I looked at a couple of his other articles, and despite being a good writer, there's some subtle, and not-so-subtle, points he misses. E.g., in "Storms and Teacups", he thinks…

I don't know how you can say this with any intellectual integrity. I suspect you either didn't read the Storms and Teacups article, or you skimmed it and recoiled at every word, refusing to consider any of his arguments in any capacity. > It's like trying to talk about racism using only Candace Owens' talking points. Are you so sure you aren't guilty of this yourself? How much Thomas Sowell or John McWhorter have you…

My son is in the top 20, I believe. He spends a lot of time on it, but I still look at him like a baby :)
