2026-01-15 21:27:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe end of the year is upon us and unsurprisingly it got me in the mood for looking back. But the old History tab was a bit lacking. It was basically just a straight port from the old site, and I knew I wanted to go back and give it an overhaul at some point. So I decided to take a detour and do...

More badges and bug fixes this time. Here's the new badges!
Hello again! It's Saturday night, so I'm gonna keep this short.
This is a mostly prep work for some more badges, but also a bugfix update for some milestones and timezones issues. I hate timezones! Especially in a site with lots of old legacy data containing dates that have no time or zon...

Got another quick, unscheduled update for you! Many site veterans continue to be confounded by the way platforms work on the new site. In an effort to get less emails about adding Switch 2 to the platform list, I'm pushing out this little update to embiggen the text on t...

As mentioned in the last post, I've splitting up the previously planned update into smaller chunks to hopefully break my mental log-jam. This time the main addition is the new Likes system but there's several other small goodies people have been requesting below.

Just wanted to touch base again as I know it's been longer than expected since the last update.

I'm back with another batch of bugfixes. But the real story this time is an innocent question on Discord snowballing to a complete redo of the achievement icons, which you can see below. The main idea was to have a clearer progression for the icons.

Life is slowly getting back to normal here and I'm back with the 2nd, and perhaps final, game presentation poll!
This time the preview layouts show several games for each option and use various combinations of icons to give a more realistic sense of what each layout would be like in action....

More info with less clicking, that's the takeaway of a lot of the feedback I've gotten about the remake since launch. So it's no surprise that Game Presentation won the first Patron Poll. I promised to give you all a chance to be part of this redesign so here we go!2024-09-10 20:42:49 +0000 UTC
