I’m making a little indie game and I’m definitely putting in a cheats console, just for the nostalgia

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Make sure you add big head mode.
Like for real? Because I'll buy.
Yeah but it’ll be in dev for another year at least. It’s just a little push-your-luck dice-based roguelite dungeon crawler.
Sounds beautiful, I'm in.
I used to feel pretty clever copying the codes from those "1001 Cheat Code" books and taking the codes home without buying the books.
GameFaqs.com was one of the most used websites in my home for a while...
GameFAQ, ctrl+f, information found in seconds.
Now you have to sit through someone shouting like and subscribe until they tell you.
Until they maybe tell you
Absolutely loved GameFAQs in the day.
I've just been replaying Freelancer (2002) for the first time since then, and it's SO refreshing to find comprehensive guides on GaneFAQs which are just plain written text, not even any images.
If you want to find tips on a modern game you basically have to scan through a bunch of YouTube playthroughs, unless the game is popular enough to have a fleshed-out wiki (versus a placeholder wiki on fandom where basically every page is just enough of a stub to come up in search engine results despite having no actual useful content)
Still is here. RetroArch and a few torrents makes it trivially easy to play everything I didn't get to as a kid on systems I didn't have. But I'm not gonna grind.
When I was a kid, we would just go to the local library and rent out the books and make copies at my leisure. If they didn't have the book, the request for it was pretty simple and fairly quick.
Support your local library !!
This is my cheat code 🏴☠️
L1, L2, R1, R2, L, D, R, U, L, D ,R ,U, X
Health, Armor, $10000, in GTA:SA
Couldn't tell you any of the others without looking them up, but that ones permanently burned into my memory...
HESOYAM is burned into mine
Too much realism.

I found out after many years, from my younger brother, that GTA: SA had a campaign. I thought that you only put cheat codes, steal cars, destroy stuff and fuck the police. Oh and make your hair, it had the best barbershops.

Fuck i forgot my gta vice city cheat codes.
I wonder where those sheets are now, that we all had written down inserted into the case in front of the instruction manual.
Only one I remember anymore is rosebud, lmao.
MTX kills my enjoyment in games very fast. Played a game with them before and just gave myself like £50k worth of premium money because it was easy. But the game wasn't fun after a few minutes of that.
