Finished a 2 month long Slippi backend migration.

Hoping the changes lead to better reliability, improved security, lower costs, and less concerns about new features potentially overloading the servers.

I hastily wrote about it in a Medium post for those interested.

Any UX designers interested in contributing to Slippi?

Looking to add a ranked match history page to the launcher. Would be great to have some mocks I can work from.

Can message me here or on Discord.

Cool visualizations of different netcode options! Definitely have to respect the amount of effort it takes to make a thread like this.

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS

The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...?

I’ve tried quite hard to find good vegan ramen in NYC and nothing has compared to my favorite spots in SF.

Best SF spots imo are Nojo, Mensho, and Hinodeya.

So far in NYC maybe Danbo is best but it’s not in the same tier.

There is one week remaining on the current Ranked season!

It will end on April 21st some time in the morning eastern time. After the season transitions it will take roughly 3 hours for the placements to be locked in as there might be lingering matches.

Good luck finalizing your ratings!

The Hax memorial profile page is live. I hope it honors his legacy well.

Huge thanks to Alexandre Misson for the assets. They really make it feel more special.

And thanks to Aklo and foxygrandpa for their input in making sure we got things right.

I'm working with Aklo and foxygrandpa to best honor Hax on Slippi.

Hax loved Melee and likely played more Slippi than anyone. It then feels apt to give him a permanent custom ranked profile page.

While we work on that though, please use this new free chat message while playing online.

Welcome to the Melee players moving over from Twitter. Hopefully we can continue to amass more activity on here.

I'm browsing it far more than Twitter these days.

Just finished migrating a majority of the Slippi ranked reporting logic from dgraph to firestore.

I'm actually pretty excited about the prospect of migrating everything off of dgraph. I think it would improve speed, reliability, and cost. All big wins.

Slippi appears to be having some server issues at the moment. Looking into it.

May cause issues queueing, reporting, and probably other things too.
March 2, 2025 at 2:21 AM
Alright I think this is fixed.

Might have been one of the dumbest things I've ever debugged tbh. I still don't really fully understand what happened and I kind of just worked around the issue.
There appears to be a small subset of users having issues with some Slippi services.

Seems to include failing to report ranked results, logging in at all, etc.

I'm looking into it.

The answer to this was NO Fox's laser cannot phantom hit, or at least, it doesn't do any damage when it does.

The following clip is modified to increase the phantom threshold so basically everything phantoms.

See my guesses on the reasons in the replies.

Melee trivia question:

Does Fox's laser do any phantom hit damage?
February 19, 2025 at 5:28 PM
Thanks @frankborden.bsky.social for letting me know this is actually every move. My assumption is that it's all hitboxes that aren't the grabber's.

One interesting impact of this is for example Falco's dthrow lasers actually do half the damage they're configured to do since they're projectiles.
Maybe it's because I'm not a big doubles player but I'm somewhat surprised I did not know that projectiles hitting a grabbed fighter cause half damage?

Really optimistic for the future of startgg.

This is likely the best possible outcome we could have hoped for.
We’re excited to announce that, starting today, Start.gg will be returning to its roots as an independent company supporting grassroots and professional esports communities. You can learn more in our article below:

Pre-orders for the SPIF x Slippi shop are ending soon.

This shop has some awesome items and if you want to guarantee getting them, make sure to check it out within the next couple days.

You can access the shop from the Slippi Launcher. Or go to spif.space/slippi

This whole splitting the title at the Chess Blitz World Championship reminds me of the earlier days of Melee where people would split the 1st place prize money at locals.

I did it once myself and vowed never to do it again. It sucks for everyone involved imo. Basically just collusion.
