The Humble Store Debut Sale


Those of you who have read my last post on the Humble Bundle already know how much love I have for their particular way of doing business.   After all, how many businesses lay out exactly where your money goes this clearly with a charity being supported quite generously to boot?

From their own page:

Here’s where your Humble Store dollars go*: 10% Charity, 75% Creator, 15% Humble Tip."

Here’s where your Humble Store dollars go*: 10% Charity, 75% Creator, 15% Humble Tip.


Just a few hours in and they've already amassed over $21,000 and still counting.  This is with games that I've personally never heard of.  As usual, they are clearly marked if they are multi-platform like so:


Steam, Mac, Windows, Linux AND it's DRM free?  How much "Win" can one product have?

To make it clear, I have no affiliation with this company.  I just have a ton of respect for how they have conducted their business and am sharing it with the rest of you.  Until next time readers!

Drastic - The Nintendo DS emulator for Android

Phoenix Wright on the 3DS on the left and Nexus 5 on the right In the last decade, the power that has become available to mobile devices has grown at an amazing pace.  Games that were once only available on high end arcade systems or the latest consoles are now playable on devices that fit in your pocket.  Loading up games like Need for Speed, Horn, Shadowgun, Final Fantasy, or even Grand Theft Auto show that mobile gaming has come a long way in a short time. Enter the Nintendo DS, a dual screened mobile system that was released in November 2004 that rendered 3D games and featured a resistive touch screen as well as an impressive game library.  Surely, such a recent system should be difficult to emulate on mobile phones, right?  With Drastic, the NDS emulator on android, the answer is "NO."

In case that you missed it, the cloud save icon is on the top right of the screen. I started a new game and played just enough to defeat the first boss of the game, and once in the overworld, I saved my file and tested the cloud save system.  Afterwards, I quit my game, and logged onto my Nexus 7. The cloud save menu is simple but functional Once the game booted up on my Nexus 7, I once again pressed the Cloud Save icon and was able to continue from my save file.   The interesting thing about this system is that it does not use Google Play games.  It will instead upload to your Google drive ...

Clean up your Facebook activity log with Absterge

Lifesperience is now Raycommend, which can be found here:    Ray Commend   Facebook is a platform that tends to elicit many different reactions from people when asked.  Whether you love it or hate it, every day millions of people from all over the world and all walks of life log on to the site or one of its various apps to catch up with family and friends.  As the years go by, one tends to build up a lot of content and in the case of many, some embarrassing content can be buried deep within your timeline.
