This looks absolutely superb gents!

Hmm in that case I'm thinking I could maybe do a combination of chrome remote and a smart plug. Set the bios to boot on power. Login with chrome and then switch to parsec.
And hope to avoid bad while loops. Dev on the road.
Replying to @AlexRoseGames @thoughtrise
Do you remote boot your PC? Love the idea of being away and doing this, but the idea of any power loss etc gives me anxiety that I just couldn't work
Replying to @mikeBithell
Afraid the experience is unlikely to improve once you start using the software 🤮

Recently left Santander in favor of Monzo Business and good lord do I wish I'd done that years ago
For those hit by the horrendous lay offs at Epic and SEGA today, we're in good shape over at FuturLab and have a growing list of fully remote roles available.
Very friendly and talented bunch.
Stellar place to work!

Excited to announce I'm now Lead Designer @FuturLab 🎊
Hiring A LOT right now so, if remote working is your thing, take a look!
Replying to @_GilesArmstrong
I'll find you as soon as I'm cool enough to get in. Hopefully before this terrible place burns down entirely
Always wondered why more publishers don't offer a publicly visible 'menu' like this.
Here's what we offer devs (porting, QA etc) with a range of how much each will add to recoup threshold and affect rev share.
No reason to keep all of this a secret until negotiations imo

Thanks for having me, was great to chat :)

ram or CPU. Most likely ram because ram.

Just completed The Spectrum Retreat for a second time this year, first time on PC. I love this game. My second playthrough took 3.8 hours.

Usually 1-9 are for user defined groups of units/buildings (Ctrl+num maps current selection to number for quick reselection)
Outside of groups, just direct left click on building/unit to select
Replying to @AlexRoseGames
Left-Click and drag to select multiple units (no key needed)
Right-Click to give orders (Hold shift to queue instead of override)
Hold shift to place multiple buildings
This is almost universal in recent years and works well :)

Thanks for guiding me to this harsh realisation ❤️
