Hi, people! ✌️

I've build "Cat a shooter 😼" for Android, and this is the last thing that I have to do for a while.

And now you can download this game for your Android device 📱 from Gamejolt: https://gamejolt.com/games/cat-a-shooter/1007868

or from itch.io: https://xolatgames.itch.io/cat-a-shooter

Also I've add instructions for building to it GitLab page 👉 https://gitlab.com/xolatgames/cat-a-shooter

So, I think that it's all, and see ya later.

Have a good day! 😉 😜 ✌️

Here's Hopeakuula Arcade's main room. Located in Kouvola, Finland, this hobbyist run, not for profit arcade has been welcoming the pinball-curious folks since 2011.

Mostly run by yours truly and my partner in life and crime, @quester, we aim to keep pinball alive for the next generations of players. The collection has over 35 games, ranging from 70s electromechanicals to the latest 2020 ones.

Hello people! I've been on the Fediverse for couple of years now, so here's my re- #introduction

I'm Ari, better known by my tag APZ and this is my #pinball repair, #arcade and #retrogaming account. I mostly post about playing and repairing pinball machines, but I also work on #retrocomputing with all the classics.

An IT guy by day, I moonlight as a public pinball arcade here in #Finland with my partner @quester. This is purely a hobby of mine and I do this to keep my sanity and to keep pinball alive for the next generations of players. At the moment I own a bit over 30 pinball machines from 70s to 2020s.

A lot of what I do involves #electronics, #CAD for now obsolete parts and #3dprinting and tabletop #cnc to recreate them.

I love to #travel, usually to meet like-minded arcade collectors. I have a strong preference to #repair stuff instead of throwing it away. I'm a #linux user since mid-90s, having been part of #foss movement most of my life.

So you replace a fuse with an iron nail, which causes a transistor to run so hot it burns a hole in the PCB. So what do you do? Apparently some fine repair tech came to this problem and the apparent solution was to jumper over the now totally burned traces and then add wires and hang the now missing transistor from those. Because why not?

This is a WhiteStar pinball platform driver board I got for spares long ago, but I think it's glorious in all of its tech goreness.

Three gifs from “Under Fire” (gameplay, 2D digitized sprite graphics, first-person perspective), a rail shooter game. The gifs are combined into a single video, where the gifs are stacked with one large gif on top, with two smaller gifs arranged side-by-side below. The gif on top depicts a bunch of bad guys in an airport parking lot firing on the players. The bad guys are wearing suits and jumpsuits and have various guns. The players take them out by returning fire. The lower-left gif depicts the game’s title screen, which reads “Under Fire”, against a background of flames.
 The lower-right gif depicts a bunch of bad guys driving vans/cars and shooting at the players. The players follow in pursuit and shoot at the bad guys, causing their vehicles to swerve off the road.
