What is your thoughts on Timespinner
Due to the way it’s designed and its short length, it has a great randomizer. It is a decently popular pick in Archipelago multiworlds. In fact someone recommended it in a multiworld I was playing so I picked it up.

Quake Brutalist Jam II
> walk through a door in an RPG Maker game end up playing a Quake level! And then, upon killing a certain enemy, be suddenly in a bossfight in a SMW ROMhack!
I just learned about this [1] yesterday but seems to be the first data point I've seen regarding something like you describe. Very cool to see, and it definitely blew my mind that things like this are now being developed.

Metroidvania ROM-Hack Recommendations?
There are randomizers for many Metroidvanias at this point, each with their own community of casual and competitive players. Just in Archipelago system you can find Hollow Knight, Blasphemous, Super Metroid, SMZ3, Timespinner, and The Messenger.

100% completed the game, now what?
I recommend checking out a randomizer mod at https://archipelago.gg/ (https://archipelago.gg/games/Stardew%20Valley/info/en). You start a new file with a defined goal (i.e. 'complete the Community Centre'), and set about seeing how fast you can do so, but... with some tweaks. For starters, you could randomize your seasons or seeds. Then things like progressive abilities and items. i.e. you earn fishing level 2, but instead of *receiving* fishing level 2, you get a Coop. When you go to Robin to buy your Coop, you receive... an Ossified Blade. And when you manage to fish up a Flounder, you receive... Fishing Level 2.

I'm looking to contribute to coding projects related to speedrunning. What current projects excite you? Or what future projects would be beneficial to games you enjoy running/viewing?
Not really speedrunning but since GDQ has randomizers, I'll mention Archipelago. https://archipelago.gg/ Multiworld randomizer that has people contributing to add game integrations. They have documentation on how to add games https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/tree/main/docs Its a lot of fun and I feel will only get better the more integrations people add! Definitely covers a lot of programming areas from assembly to networking.

The Rise and Fall of the LAN Party
Recently, my friends and I recreated our old LAN parties. Went up to a cabin in the woods, brought some cheap network switches, and had everyone install OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/, open red alert), and had a blast, even with everyone on laptops (mac/win). You can still do this in 2024 and it's worth it!

Ask HN: What older games are you playing through?
After the movies, I wanted to experience Dune 2 again (the pirate sites have it, along with patches to make it playable on modern OSes or Crossover). It was arguably the first mass-market real-time strategy game. There's also OpenRA for C&C, Red Alert, and Dune 2K: https://www.openra.net/
I understand Square is re-making FF7 in a multi-part release over several years (not sure why it takes so long)? https://ffvii-remake-intergrade.square-enix-games.com/en-us/ Once it's all out, I might play through that again just for nostalgia's sake (and for the soundtrack, of course! Twenty years later, I still have Aeris's Theme stuck in my head from time to time)

Any way to play on a MacBook Pro?
Alternatively OpenRA has a bunch of C&C inspired mods: https://www.openra.net I think this way is the easiest way to get a C&C like experience on a M1 Mac right now.
