What a 5 set match looks like in Line Clipper: Tennis Tactics if each point only gets 1 frame.

Tennis is a little different than working to stop an alien invasion, but anyone who has played XCOM know the pain of missing a shot like this. If you too want to curse your luck, look forward to Line Clipper: Tennis Tactics.

Getting Line Clipper: Tennis Tactics localized is great because I'm learning important tennis terms in other languages. Perhaps none more useful than discovering that the German for "ace" is "ass".
Now if someone tells me my serve "looked like ass", I can say "danke" and take the point.

Humans like nice round numbers. We aren’t able to care about or even understand the granular difference between every single number. The result is that real world demand curves actually look more like downward staircases with demand clumping up at round numbers. (12/24)

Companies treat tariffs as added costs. The increased cost going into the supply curve disrupts the price equilibrium. This means consumers pay more (or are priced out), and producers sell less and make less profit per unit. It’s a lose-lose situation. (2/24)

Despite not being a great looking game (from a technical perspective), 1000xRESIST is the first game in ages that actually made me want to capture screenshots just because the shot composition is so well done and the imagery is so impactful.

Now that I've finished it, I must join the others shouting into the wind about how great 1000xRESIST is. Not just an all-time snub in the Best Narrative category for The Game Awards, but a big snub in Best Game Direction as well. It's a clear example of great direction overcoming other limitations.

Glad to finally be able to show the tennis game I've been developing. It's called Line Clipper: Tennis Tactics and, as you might have guessed from the name, it is a turn-based game that leans heavily into the strategic elements of tennis.
