I hate Nintendo Switch Online. I hate the lack of optimization. I hate the expensive subscription service. I hate the lack of games. I hate the limited time releases. I hate that it's never gonna have the level of content that the Wii virtual console had. I hate what capitalism has done to gaming.
This collection includes: All the GBA, GB and GBC games currently available on the Switch!!
+ And a few extra bonus!! Mostly from the same series'seses
Download here for free!!: https://www.mediafire.com/file/pzycxh6zu9b8drf/GBA_Online_PC.rar (405 MB Uncompressed)
They're all ready to be played in HD on PC. Just drag and drop the files on the included program
Target audience right here!! The joy of gaming and sharing it with others is the reason i post and i made this blog. Enjoy the Kirbyses very much, and do remember to support the official release whenever possible

lancer is cool for lots of reasons, one of them being you get to name so much shit even as a PC. at minimum you’ll have your character name, callsign, and name for LL0 Everest, and then you get to name any additional frames you get. so much cool name potential.
For real. Like, a significant portion of the fun for me is just naming my mechs, same thing in AC6.

Interested in what others listen to when drawing mechs. For me it's a lot of Armored Core and Mega Man Zero soundtracks, as well as some hardware synth. Any recommendations?
Likes to charge reblogs to FUCKING cast
Please for the love of god. You should be able to change controls WITHOUT TAKING YOUR EYES OF THE ROAD. There is no reason to have to look at a SCREEEN while DRIVING
Normally I would have done a sketch or something during our Lancer campaign today but it didn't happen so... Cat. Maybe I'll work on something tomorrow.
I've been thinking about how to design a variety of mechs but I keep running into the inherent problems of mechs and how wheeled and tracked vehicles outperform them in most cases so I was trying to design a mech foot that includes a wheel in it somehow.
Now usually this comes as either oversized heelies or some form of wheel assembly that folds down. I do not think that is a very good idea as it is mechanically complex. (My idea may be more complex but I wouldn't know)
With 3D Printing we can print wheels in new and perhaps unconventional shapes so the traditional shape may not be ideal in certain cases. With something like cubic infill the wheels would also require no air and thus be more resistant to gunfire, additionally with a good printer you could print directly on top of worn out tires and perhaps with an automated supplying system it would require no personnel but the mech pikots themselves.
With this new shape you could simply flip the wheel 90° and turn your wheel into a foot. There's probably some irl reason why this would not work but I feel that it would look realistic enough for the consumer.
Here's a quick sketch. Blue is rubber, black is the wheel assembly and red is the ground.
The reason I'm talking about this is that I was thinking about quadrupedal mechs and how to design them properly and there really weren't any reasons for them as far as I could tell. As self propelled artillery or anti air I can see the purpose they could serve but wheels and tracks are just so much faster.
So why not both?
Tracked wheels are a bit too fragile for this purpose I think so a big soft wheel that's easily replacable seems better. They'd be soft for more grip seeing as I don't think they'd have much place outside of rough mountainous areas.
Tell me what you think.
I would think making the wheel fold down would be too mechanically complex and create not only loss of power due to needing a universal joint at a steep angle but also a loss of stability. The oversized heelie thing tends to work well because it gives the wheels a stable axle that doesn't need to be held in place by another system. I do really like the fact that you think about ease of repair, it's something I don't see as often in mech designs. I propose a system where one would use stocky quadruped legs that have large electric motors driving wheels on each foot. Gives the machine good acceleration and maneuverability. The foot could have a large cleat that sits around the wheels, protecting them from gunfire. Should traction become an issue, a hydraulic could lower the cleat past the wheels turning it into a more traditional foot shape. The increased surface area and teeth on the cleat would be excellent for stability, rooting the machine and allowing it to disperse energy from recoil into its legs. Would help fill a niche as a mobile artillery platform that can reach difficult to traverse areas and is quick enough on its feet to survive engagements with faster machines.
Yeah would've followed you for just the sketch but all them words would've done it too.
I am worried about giving each foot it's own electric engine but I see no other way to do it. My reason for worry is the size of engine that'd be needed and how much that could "bloat" the foot.
I'm uncertain as to the purpose of the guide wheel that is pictured, please do explain.
Also something annoying about discussing mechs is that the tech level for every fiction varies so much. The bloating issue could be non-existent with sufficiently advanced and compact electric engines but as I am arguing about mechs in general there are no real defined rules besides "this seems realistic enough to be fun but not so realistic that mechs can't exist".
Thank you for the response.
I mean, if the legs in your machine are chunky enough you could add the motors right where the calves would be and have a driveshaft down the center of the leg connecting up to a differential at the bottom. Might actually be a better idea in general since you don't have to worry about waterproofing as much. Regardless it's hard to get good amounts of rotational force and speed on the end of an appendage like that.
Thanks for posting the question to begin with. Discussing the pseudo engineering behind mechs is something I love to do, even if it tends towards emphasizing how poor of an idea they are lol.

Drew a fullbody of my Lancer character. The rest of players are in disarray trying to figure out combat but means more time to draw.
Finally worked up the brainpower to draw again.
Unsure if I'm going to finish this, but I've been doing a redesign of my Pathfinder character, Murphy.
Sketch of an Oath breaker knight for a world building project I'm part of. Hopefully soon to be the first of many such sketches.
