Counterpart 2x10 — 6/10

I don’t know if they rewrote the finale at the last minute because they realized they weren’t gonna be renewed, or they just got tired as they reached the end of the season, but that was rather sloppily written.

Mirroring the hand to UI panel far away seems weird but actually works surprisingly fine. It’s like using a mouse on desktop, instead of looking at our hands, we actually concentrate on the cursor, but it still feels reactive and natural. #Oculus #Leapmotion

I have two dev accounts, neither of which is configured on a device. Apple’s 2FA is heavily biased toward multi-device usage, so I feel pretty sure this change, however well-intentioned, is gonna turn out to be highly inconvenient.

Ironically I feel like the game’s biggest flaw is embracing the technology to add rewind and fast-forward buttons. Makes it too tempting to keep rewinding in order to see everything at once, and that turns watching the action into a chore.

Scrolling down to the comments there is some clarification on what was going on. Apparently the old limit was 3600°/second… that’s 10 whole revolutions in one second. 🤔 Also, “light enough controller”, is this something else than a Vive wand? I know Knuckles feel lighter to me.

Quern – Undying Thoughts (PC) — DNF

A lot of good work went into this puzzle game, but there are also serious UX issues — both in the interface (for starters, half the bindings don’t work on my controller so I’m forced to use the mouse) and in the puzzle design. Far too much busy work for too little payoff.

That’s what the series of The Room games nailed like no other: it was properly satisfying to see gears turn, machinery activate, new rooms appear, as you solved each puzzle.
