Rebuilding the Browsercade

Yeah, a whole big lump of drawing functions have now been copy+pasted (with SO many fixes!) back into Browsercade from JSE.
It's much more aligned now.

But that's just the alignment test.

Today, I took a great big sledgehammer and walloped the Browsercade firmly and with intent.

It's been AGES since I made a Browsercade game. Rollin' Rubber was back in May 2023, and in the world of AGameAWeek, that's a whole lifetime *snip*

Shoebox - Switchboard
A single player Solitaire-esque Chess game.
Each piece can only move along the colour that it starts on (except Mr Horsey, of coursey) but every time a piece lands, it flips the current row/column.
How few a number of moves can you*snip*

I opened up the BB script to add Rumble, and found that I'd already done it previously..

Learning Java ... I guess

The very concept of Java was ideal. A ''universal'' language that every machine could understand.
And, they tried to make it catch on. They really did.

I always considered Spaceballs to be a good parody. Amusing enough.

Poundland Sale

When Wilco went bust a couple of years ago, Poundland actually took control of a LOT of their stores.
I expect the sudden requirement to stock up and staff all of those stores likely caused a lot of the issues they were having.

OK, .avif is allowable in the BBCode, but isn't allowable for uploads, because .. It's doing something weird with the resulting images, and I'm not sure what, and I'm not sure why, and I'm not 100% happy with the security of that..

If I were moving to something new, I'd probably avoid anything 32 bit. Once Microsoft goes the ''follow the Apple'' route of blocking 32-bit stuff, you're going to be struggling again.

Yeah, it says it does, but I'd need to triple check first. Last thing we need is the site crapping itself because some silly developer decided WebP wasn't compressed enough.

[quote=Kuron].avif file has been a new standard for several years[/quote]
SoCoder was created in 2006, then entirely rewritten in 2017.
Apparently the .avif format came out in 2019.
I stand by my argument that .avif is new.
Bloody modern stuff. Pah.
