Despite the various bugs throughout, I finally managed to finish #Expedition20 in #NoMansSky last night.
The ending text box is a great example of why you should have line breaks (at full stops and some commas) in text. Otherwise you get very wide lines of text filling the screen. 🤔

I don't like #NoMansSky expeditions. 🥺
Always lots of bugs, e.g. being punted a long way from my ship when I try to spacewalk.
Now I seem unable to reach the last rendezvous, as I’ve been constantly warping 350-450ly each time for over two hrs. Map currently looks like this:

I second this. 👍
My sister’s been rehoming greyhounds for nearly 20 years now. ☺️
Contact a rehoming centre that allow you a trial period first, as some come with traits such as being scared of all vehicles, unusual noises outside, etc., so you don’t end up with one that is a nervous wreck 24/7.

What happens when ‘vertical’ videos are posted on landscape/horizontal aspect social media, then posted on a vertical format social media, then back on a landscape format social media:

Our lab-collie cross Albert snoozes a lot during the day, but I suspect that’s partly due to the dishwasher and washing machine running between midnight and 3am. 🫤

Played the demo, loved it, left a positive review and wishlisted the full game. 👍
Needs line breaks at commas/full stops. Some subs are three lines long (some have four sentences in one sub).
Should be broken up into separate subs of one sentence/comma break each, to aid readability.

Note for anyone new to playing #NoMansSky:
Once you get access to the multiplayer ‘Anomaly’, make sure you have at least one empty inventory slot in your exosuit, so us vererans can transfer items worth millions of Units to you as a little gift. ☺️

Here’s a great example of why it's best to think about, implement and code in #accessibility to your game as soon as possible, rather than at beta or later.
#NoMansSky launched in 2016 with tiny UI & game text. 18 months ago (iirc) they added size adjustment. Unfortunately it breaks the game a bit:

Even the main name looks a bit low contrast. Maybe just larger text and a darker green background, so the text is more pronounced?
As attached.

The phonetic text needs to be white/lighter to match the name too, as I still find it hard to read.

Yeah, a lot’s been happening <out there> and it's found its way in here. 🫤
As an antidote, here’s the dog I’m looking after while my sister and bro-in-law are on hols for a week in Majorca.
He’s a lurcher cross called Toby. ☺️

At my junior school in Rochester, each slice had sprinkles.
The current supplier to Morrisons has them too:

But when I make my own, I don't add them.
