Are there any good RSS apps for iOS? Preferably free or one time payment instead of subscription

Does anyone know how to clean the inside of your windshield in a car without making big streaks everywhere?

My only gripe about Mario Kart World is that the soundtrack is TOO GOOD and gets drowned out by the sounds of vrooms and green shells spinning

RAD VENTURE
By: Knick-Knack Games
Subgenre: Collectathon

Another one that's been long time in the making and has a lot of heart behind it. Just did a successful second kickstarter launch.

Mario Kart World has an amazing soundtrack, some deep cut Mario tracks in there. I heard an arrangement of Creative Exercise from Mario Paint immediately followed by Drifting Away from WarioWare

I’m not very good at Lumines but I love Tetris Effect. Hope this comes to Switch 2 someday

There's a Playdate OS/SDK update out today, 2.7.2. (Get it in Settings > System > System Update).

While it doesn't have a lot of features for players, it sets the stage for a big new part of Playdate: networking. That means developers can start writing things like—that's right—multiplayer games.

Interesting Mario lore
It was brought to my attention that many one-sided friendships are listed on the official Play Nintendo site. I have analyzed the lists and present some of the most bizarre cases of non-mutual friendships below.

What a cool and normal world we live in where a twitter dot com post that the president makes can influence billions of dollars worth of stocks. Capitalism is so fun
