Karateka Climbs Again

When the Digital Eclipse team told me they wanted to give my early game Karateka "the Criterion treatment" and re-release it in a deluxe remastered edition, I couldn't quite picture exactly what they had in mind. Their enthusiasm and evident passion for video game history inspired confidence, so I said yes. I never in my wildest dreams imagined how far they'd take it.

The photo above captures my dad's reaction as (age 92) he watches himself climbing up onto the hood of our family car forty years earlier. He's wearing a karate gi at my request, in a Super 8 film I shot at age 18 to create rotoscoped animation for Karateka. (This was three years before I pressed my 15-year-old brother into service as the model for my next game, Prince of Persia.)

Digital Eclipse has reconstructed my Super 8 rotoscoping process — from film to pencil tracings to pixelated game character — in their interactive, hands-on "Rotoscope Theater." And that's just one element of "The Making of Karateka." It's packed with audio and video interviews with me, my dad, and game-industry luminaries; a podcast about Karateka's music (which my dad composed); rare original design documents; excerpts from my journals; and 14 playable games — including not only the final Apple II, Commodore, and Atari versions of Karateka, but also work-in-progress builds I submitted to Broderbund along the way, tracking its development from prototype to gold master. All the games are playable on a choose-your-own nostalgic menu of period monitors and TVs, with optional audio commentary and a "watch/play" mode that the Dagger of Time would envy.

As a bonus, they've salvaged and resurrected my never-before-published arcade shoot-em-up Deathbounce (the game I made before Karateka, which teenage me hoped would be my ticket to software success in 1982)… and the one I did before that, an unauthorized Apple II clone of the arcade hit Asteroids. Incredibly, they've not only remastered Karateka, but also remade Deathbounce, using today's technology to reimagine my 1982 prototype as a jazzy twin-stick shooter. All these are included and playable in "The Making of Karateka."

If "The Making of Karateka" were an interactive exhibition in the Strong Museum of Play (from whose collection many of the archival materials came), it would require several rooms and a full afternoon to explore. Now, you can download, play and discover it at your leisure, on your favorite platform. Details and links are on the Karateka page on my website.

With this release, Digital Eclipse has set a new bar for game-development history preservation. I'm touched and honored that they chose Karateka as the first title in their planned Gold Master series. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Programming

Today is Programming day. I am not very excited about it, since it is going much harder and much slower as I expected. But we have to Work...

I am developing a website using Mudblazor. UI Is done but I can't show it here cause it is a private project. Now I have to connect the DB with the UI. The functions that interact with the DB are also ready, so all missing is the logic connecting both. And at this moment I realized how much my UI sucks, hahaha. But Blazor and Mudblazor are very interesting, I am also enjoying programming with c#. I tried developing games with it in Unity before, and it is a nice language. I mostly work with Swift because of my job, so I am happy to try something I can use outside apple environment since most of my devices aren't even apple. I have an iPhone and that's it, my laptop is a windows, android tablet, kindle, WSL, Xiaomi Band (nor very smart). I'll try any old tech you give me.

For those wondering how I can develop with Swift without a Mac, I do have a Mac from work, but it is not my personal Laptop and I don't have anything personal there. All my games and university stuff is in my Windows laptop.

Apple iPhone 16 के फ़ीचर्स हुए लीक, सिर्फ इतनी कीमत में होगा Launch, नये फ़ीचर्स हैं लाज़वाब

Apple iPhone 16: हाल ही में, Apple ने 2023 में iPhone 15 और 15 Pro मॉडल्स को लॉन्च किया है, लेकिन अब तक के रूमर्स, एनालिस्ट्स, लीकर्स और दूसरों की अंदरूनी जानकारी के हिसाब से, सबकी नजरें पहले ही 2024 के आईफोन 16 लाइनअप की तरफ हैं।

“Apple iPhone 16 के Rumored Features में सॉलिड-स्टेट वॉल्यूम बटन, 6.3″ और 6.9″ साइज़ का बड़ा डिस्प्ले, नया कैप्चर बटन, वाई-फाई 7, फ़ास्ट A-series चिप और पेरिस्कोप ज़ूम लेंस इत्यादि शामिल है।”

iPhone 16 लाइनअप में बड़े परिवर्तन की उम्मीद है, जिसमें iPhone 16 का आकार 6.3 इंच तक बढ़ाया जाएगा और आईफोन 16 प्रो का आकार 6.9 इंच तक बढ़ाया जाएगा, जो कई सालों के बाद पहला महत्वपूर्ण आकार अपग्रेड होगा। यह आकार का परिवर्तन केवल आईफोन 16 प्रो मॉडल्स के लिए होगा, जबकि आईफोन 16 मॉडल्स का आकार आईफोन 15 मॉडल्स के समान रहेगा।

Apple नए A-series चिप्स को आईफोन 16 लाइनअप के लिए डिज़ाइन कर रहा है, जो नवीनतम N3E 3-नैनोमीटर नोड पर आधारित हैं। हम सुधार और प्रदर्शन में कुछ बेहतरीनी देख सकते हैं, लेकिन अभी तक हमें यह नहीं पता कि आखिरकार हमें कौन-कौन सी नई विशेषताएँ मिलेंगी। एक्शन बटन का उपयोग आईफोन 15 प्रो मॉडल्स के लिए सीमित था, लेकिन 2024 में उम्मीद है कि इसे सभी चार आईफोन 16 मॉडल्स में बढ़ाया जाएगा, और नए आईफोन्स के बारे में एक अतिरिक्त रहस्यमय बटन हो सकता है, जिसका उद्देश्य हमें अभी तक नहीं पता है।

इस ब्लॉग में आईफोन 16 लाइनअप के बारे में अफवाहों के आधार पर जानकारी दी गयी है जैसे ही Apple आगामी आईफोन मॉडल्स की डिज़ाइन अपडेट करेगा, यहां दी गई जानकारी बदल सकती है। Read More…

Things Biden and the Democrats did, this week #19

May 17-24 2024

President Biden wiped out the student loan debt of 160,000 more Americans. This debt cancellation of 7.7 billion dollars brings the total student loan debt relieved by the Biden Administration to $167 billion. The Administration has canceled student loan debt for 4.75 million Americans so far. The 160,000 borrowers forgiven this week owned an average of $35,000 each and are now debt free. The Administration announced plans last month to bring debt forgiveness to 30 million Americans with student loans coming this fall.

The Department of Justice announced it is suing Ticketmaster for being a monopoly. DoJ is suing Ticketmaster and its parent company Live Nation for monopolistic practices. Ticketmaster controls 70% of the live show ticket market leading to skyrocketing prices, hidden fees and last minute cancellation. The Justice Department is seeking to break up Live Nation and help bring competition back into the market. This is one of a number of monopoly law suits brought by the Biden administration against Apple in March and Amazon in September 2023.

The EPA announced $225 million in new funding to improve drinking and wastewater for tribal communities. The money will go to tribes in the mainland US as well as Alaska Native Villages. It'll help with testing for forever chemicals, and replacing of lead pipes as well as sustainability projects.

The EPA announced $300 million in grants to clean up former industrial sites. Known as "Brownfield" sites these former industrial sites are to be cleaned and redeveloped into community assets. The money will fund 200 projects across 178 communities. One such project will transform a former oil station in Philadelphia’s Kingsessing neighborhood, currently polluted with lead and other toxins into a waterfront bike trail.

The Department of Agriculture announced a historic expansion of its program to feed low income kids over the summer holidays. Since the 1960s the SUN Meals have served in person meals at schools and community centers during the summer holidays to low income children. This Year the Biden administration is rolling out SUN Bucks, a $120 per child grocery benefit. This benefit has been rejected by many Republican governors but in the states that will take part 21 million kids will benefit. Last year the Biden administration introduced SUN Meals To-Go, offering pick-up and delivery options expanding SUN's reach into rural communities. These expansions are part of the Biden administration's plan to end hunger and reduce diet-related disease by 2030.

Vice-President Harris builds on her work in Africa to announce a plan to give 80% of Africa internet access by 2030, up from just 40% today. This push builds off efforts Harris has spearheaded since her trip to Africa in 2023, including $7 billion in climate adaptation, resilience, and mitigation, and $1 billion to empower women. The public-private partnership between the African Development Bank Group and Mastercard plans to bring internet access to 3 million farmers in Kenya, Tanzania, and Nigeria, before expanding to Uganda, Ethiopia, and Ghana, and then the rest of the continent, bring internet to 100 million people and businesses over the next 10 years. This is together with the work of Partnership for Digital Access in Africa which is hoping to bring internet access to 80% of Africans by 2030, up from 40% now, and just 30% of women on the continent. The Vice-President also announced $1 billion for the Women in the Digital Economy Fund to assure women in Africa have meaningful access to the internet and its economic opportunities.

The Senate approved Seth Aframe to be a Judge on the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, it also approved Krissa Lanham, and Angela Martinez to district Judgeships in Arizona, as well as Dena Coggins to a district court seat in California. Bring the total number of judges appointed by President Biden to 201. Biden's Judges have been historically diverse. 64% of them are women and 62% of them are people of color. President Biden has appointed more black women to federal judgeships, more Hispanic judges and more Asian American judges and more LGBT judges than any other President, including Obama's full 8 years in office. President Biden has also focused on backgrounds appointing a record breaking number of former public defenders to judgeships, as well as labor and civil rights lawyers.
