Android and iOS release Westworld Mobile has announced that it is to pull down the shutters in three months time. The app has already been removed from digital storefronts, with the game’s servers going offline April 16. Players are being encouraged to spend up any remaining in-game currency.The announcement was made via a statement on Twitter by developer Behaviour Games. Although no specific reason was stated for the closure, Behaviour has recently come out of a vicious legal battle with Bethesda, who sued the developer on the grounds that Westworld Mobile uses the same source code as their own Fallout Shelter. As Behaviour Games are responsible for the creation of both titles, this was not seen as a far-fetched claim, especially when bugs identical to those found in Fallout Shelter also reared their head in Westworld Mobile. Although the case was…

Enlarge Days after a nasty public split with cloud gaming developer Improbable, Unity has reinstated the company’s license and updated its own terms of service to offer what it is calling a “commitment to being an open platform.” “When you make a game with Unity, you own the content and you should have the right to put it wherever you want,” Unity wrote in a blog post explaining the move. “Our TOS didn’t reflect this principle—something that is not in line with who we are.” The new terms of service allow Unity developers to integrate any third-party service into their projects, no questions asked. As a caveat, though, Unity will now distinguish between “supported” third-party services—those Unity ensures will “always [run] well on the latest version of our software”—and “unsupported” third-party services, which developers use at their own risk….
Unity has revised its terms of service to ensure developers can use any third party service that integrates into Unity, following a dispute with SpatialOS maker Improbable. …

The past week’s flurry of accusations, counter-claims, big-money deals and license revocations between Unity and Improbable seems to have come to an end. Developers using Improbable’s SpatialOS cloud server tech can breathe easy, and resume development as normal without fear of the floor dropping out under them. In a Unity blog post here, the company say they’ve reinstated Improbable’s Unity licenses, and have altered the terms of service so that they are no longer in breach. Developers are now free to use any third-party services they wish, although not all will be officially supported. (more…)

Keep in mind, I think Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is a pretty good game. I just made this comic out of my own guilt for getting these “time savers.” -Trevor

Click for full size Nothing much else to say about Artifact expect perhaps to write it’s an obituary. My opinion is, outside of being a paid game in a market saturated with F2P options, the game is made toward a single person, and JUST that kind of person. It lacks brain dead aggro decks, or super gimmick control deck, they are this snowbally mid-range deck where you don’t really have full control of the board. Or perhaps the game is just bad, with how little control you have of where your units attack and how you need to keep tabs of multiple stuff, the reason why so many people keep saying the game is mentally taxing, like playing chess with invisible pieces. I just wish Valve had used its resources to make a 2d platformer game instead, I’d love…

The hackers over at Radiona.org, a Zagreb Makerspace, have been hard at work designing the ULX3S, an open-source development board for LATTICE ECP5 FPGAs. This board might help make 2019 the Year of the Hacker FPGA, whose occurrence has been predicted once again after not quite materializing in 2018. Even a quick look at the board and the open-source development surrounding it hints that this time might be different. Bottom side of ULX3S PCBThe ULX3S was developed primarily as an educational tool for undergraduate-level digital logic classes. As such, it falls into the “kitchen sink” category of FPGA boards, which include a comprehensive suite of peripherals and devices for development, as opposed to more bare-bones FPGA breakouts. The board includes 32 MB SDRAM, WiFi via an ESP-32 (supporting over-the-air update), a connector for an SPI OLED display, USB, HDMI, a microSD…
Dejan over at HowToMechatronics posted a detailed how-to on building DIY Arduino RC transmitter: Now I can wirelessly control any Arduino project with just some small adjustments at the receiver side. This transmitter can be also used as any commercial RC transmitter for controlling RC toys, cars, drones and so on. For that purpose it just needs a simple Arduino receiver which then generates the appropriate signals for controlling those commercial RC devices. I will explain how everything works in this video through few examples of controlling an Arduino robot car, controlling the Arduino Ant Robot from my previous video and controlling a brushless DC motor using an ESC and some servo motors. More details on HowToMechatronics’ project page. Check out the video after the break.
