@tom could be a reused board! Also they could be testing points or for flashing the microcontroller but it looks like none of those

@tom the pins on thermometers are usually jumpers that signal different climate control mechanisms (fans, radiators, etc) to turn on

@body@mastodon.social USB recovery media is a thing as of maybe 2009

@body@mastodon.social my main problems with sonic personally is the physics suck unless you're going very fast, and going very fast makes it hard to react to oncoming obstacles and this fixes those things

@body@mastodon.social basically a racing game where high level play involves slinging your character through small gaps and across big, precise jumps. If you want you can stop to search for special items or a hidden halfpipe level

@body@mastodon.social I would de-emphasise combat & make something between platformer & racer, with stages like 3D versions of sonic stages; intertwined tracks, with the shortest one being the hardest to stay on. Your character would operate like one in any 3rd person game, with a dedicated sprint toggle that makes them operate like an arcadey car. I may have a combat system that's just generic brawling that you can skip by blowing through enemies at speed, scattering them like bowling pins

@body@mastodon.social I know how to make a fun sonic game but I'm not aware of any implementation of what I have in mind

@envgen it's still fairly expensive and not very good, but quite soon it will be quite cheap and not very good
I want to use it for making my own sprue kits and figurines

The star wars movies are already printing all of the props on specialised high resolution machines, but that sort of quality isn't m mass producable yet

@tom also nearly all of the weapons in gundam are made by this terrifying company or one of it's 100 trillion subsidiaries. They're contracted by every major faction!
