So I found this indie game where a boy & his husky are stranded in the Arctic in 1864 & you can play as either of them
- Switch between boy & dog at any time
- Uncover the mystery of a lost expedition
- Play solo or with a friend in co-op
It's called IKUMA: The Frozen Compass
The California State Assembly has passed the Protect Our Games Act, a bill to protect user rights after a game's service ends
Under this, games shutting down would need to provide at least 60 days notice to consumers, while also ensuring that purchasers will still have access to the game via an alt version or patch that allows it to be played offline. And if not, they must offer refunds
The bill must still be passed by the California Senate

I had this idea for a 4-player dynamic splitscreen setup.
Not sure if it's better than a traditional splitscreen setup, but I like the fact that you can see the relative locations of other players visually.
Might write a blog post about this!

Reading glasses might be done.
The FDA just approved a once-daily eye drop called VIZZ that sharpens near vision in about 30 minutes and keeps it sharp for up to 10 hours.
One drop. Each eye. Per day.
That's it.
The active ingredient is aceclidine, a compound first used back in 1975 to treat glaucoma. Scientists figured out it could be repurposed to gently shrink the pupil, creating a "pinhole effect" that pulls close-up text back into focus, the same trick your eye does when you squint.
Unlike Vuity, the 2021 drop that came before it, VIZZ doesn't mess with your focusing muscles. So no blurry distance vision. No brow ache. No weird zoom effect.
It was tested across more than 30,000 treatment days with no major complications.
Cost is roughly $2 a day.
This matters because presbyopia, the age-related slide that hits most people between 40 and 45, already affects more than 120 million Americans. By 2030, the World Health Organization expects around 2 billion people worldwide to have it.
LENZ Therapeutics, the maker, started rolling out samples in October.
The squint era is ending.
