Yeah it's the "not gel" part that's the hardest as, you think... Wait a small tiniest of change might get them to gel or less resistance. So, yeah 😂 it's tough.

The biggest issue though is the balance of the right amount of "shock therapy". We're in the age of the 5-minute decision, where within that time someone will just give up. I absolutely agree that no one truly messes with settings. So, your default has to be tuned almost to a T.

I spent all game in the LINE group, but just popped over here to say that was absolutely tremendous, and though the quality of Japan's three goals didn't match that of Brazil's two, they fought back superbly and deserved to win.
Japan 3-2 Brazil. Give me a woof.

FULL TIME

Japan 3-2 Brazil

In their 14th meeting, the student has beaten the teacher.

A truly historic result for the Japanese game against an opponent it has sought to match on the pitch for more than half a century.

Haha it certainly is very hard to not be cynical at the moment... but, what people are interested in design wise (as consumers) comes in waves imo. Bonk.

Stuffed Wombat @stuffedwomb.at · Jul 8

small games by tiny devs finding huge success by dropping all notions of expression and focusing on dopamine delivery has done some sort of heavy damage to whatever I believed in in the 2010s about game design
