<p>~Update~</p><p>You can now encrypt plain text, so anything you want. With this, you can send sensitive information over insecure channels or share publicly with real plausible deniability. (below 2000 characters works without issue)</p><p>~Changes~</p><p>I rebuilt the system with a different encryption design, and address many of the flaws pointed out in V1.</p><p>I really wanted any password to always decrypt so you never know if you are right. I found the XOR algorithm that does this, but there is an entropy problem, where an incorrect password will almost always output non-common characters, I attempted to solve this at its core by diving into the math and some research papers but got nowhere, as it seemed to be almost impossible.</p><p>I tried finding an algorithm that would give me perfect plausible deniability, so if you shared a link X with a password you could use a different password and get Y, saying you never intended to share X. It doesn’t exist 😢 I came up with a workaround by adding decoys which are mutable XOR ciphers joined, it allows you to set what other data is included, so you can tailor your alibi.</p><p>Here is the demo <a href="https://qrc.site/anon?q=3lZFjXbmLAu3VKyZ83R24HEOPis8sTqymPBFEglRwFfZZt6Ggo5tch6uEXR3ogSZDQY0gOKJp2xqWnvrJjz2Uff1-3yCEwcJl48uFP7Je3eqILMps1wAaP2lmhc8Cu3NG03DO2YkWlm9rgK5O5a4n7b15acVUjTmiTap5mbJbgfuEUhv2lyqillBWUfp2ZBdT-Bcnekc3MJ7MswzDROqZrXiTDsNIsZihrqhmL7A7m8bOZnZfzkZxFhJInDJiXWwyXu62JRzb7NhR6SBXPzyxgCMuz2jZK2P9xdINQYfW5BOfzk1JIGTxSkSYtrxn5&amp;v=2" rel="nofollow">link</a>. There are three memes you can find</p><p><p>Password: test1, test2, test3</p></p><p>~Safety~</p><p>It should be safe to share data encrypted with this method, I did some basic brute force tests and did not find any shortcuts, I have a rough estimate of a billion years on a server farm for a 12digit password.</p><p>~Considerations~</p><p>@[email protected] said:</p><p><p>“There’s 2 secrets here: the link and the password. And to share it with someone you need to share 2 secrets: the locked link and the password.”</p></p><p>A strong password is almost impossible to crack, but you can use a popular text link tool like pastebin with expiry to mask the encrypted data. As for eliminating the password, I have considered using the site as the ‘shared secret’ so you share just the cipher, and if you know the URL you can paste it in, and it would be encrypted/decrypted with a derived key the site stored.</p> <small class="notice" x-post-type-data="None"> Takahe has limited support for this type: <a href="https://programming.dev/post/33039671">See Original Page</a> </small>

<p>B-Side gaming Zine <a href="/tags/2/" rel="tag">#2</a></p><p></p><p>Welcome</p><p>This is the second issue of B-side gaming zine. The idea for doing this came from the user<br> PerfectDark who does something similar to this for the Steam deck and games communities.<br> I really enjoy PerfectDark&#x27;s work and I often wondered myself if I could create something like a<br> small magazine. So I figured I give it a try now that I have my own community here. The last issue<br> had mostly links to news about Foss and indie games. This time, I decided to add more stuff and<br> add some personal flair to make it feel less dry. Though I still think the writing feels often dry, I will try to improve it more in the future, but writing is not my strong suit even though I enjoy it.</p><p>(Dyslexia is not helping)<br> So beyond the news, this issue includes the First part of the history of Adventure games, focusing<br> on text adventure games. The article is based on Wikipedia and other wiki entries, and additionally,<br> it includes some tools that can be used to make your own text adventure games. Following that are<br> the 10 Indie games recommended for newcomers.<br> Next, I decided to link indie hardware reviews<br> for each issue. For this one, it is the Playdate by panic.<br> I also thought it would be neat to include a game with the Zine, and since adding a link to a free game is a bit less unique and I cannot afford to give out game keys for commercial games, I decided<br> to further back in time when magazines did come with physical media and had code written on their<br> pages, and you had to type it into the code editor yourself.</p><p>I have included a game in Python written<br> by me; do not expect something fancy with super dumper graphics; it is just a simple Rock, Paper,<br> Scissors game.</p><p>Finally, I added the corner of fun. Where you can find memes, jokes (They are kind of meh though),<br> and comic strips I found about making indie games.</p><p>Indie game news</p><p>Hermano and Chante</p><p><a href="https://bleedingcool.com/games/hermano-chante-released-as-classic-game-boy-cartridges/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="bleedingcool.com/games/hermano-chante-released-as-classic-game-boy-cartridges/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bleedingcool.com/games/hermano</span><span class="invisible">-chante-released-as-classic-game-boy-cartridges/</span></a></p><p>ModRetro has released two new retro-like games that are available as Game Boy cartridges, as you can get Hermano and Chante today</p><p>WILL: Follow The Light</p><p></p><p><a href="https://80.lv/articles/explore-a-stunning-northern-wilderness-in-this-first-person-adventure-puzzle-game/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="80.lv/articles/explore-a-stunning-northern-wilderness-in-this-first-person-adventure-puzzle-game/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">80.lv/articles/explore-a-stunn</span><span class="invisible">ing-northern-wilderness-in-this-first-person-adventure-puzzle-game/</span></a></p><p>TomorrowHead Studio has released the first gameplay reveal trailer for WILL: Follow The Light, a story-driven, first-person adventure puzzle game created with Unreal Engine 5.</p><p>The Outlast Trials</p><p><a href="https://bleedingcool.com/games/the-outlast-trials-releases-the-season-2-1-update/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="bleedingcool.com/games/the-outlast-trials-releases-the-season-2-1-update/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bleedingcool.com/games/the-out</span><span class="invisible">last-trials-releases-the-season-2-1-update/</span></a></p><p>The Outlast Trials dropped a new update for the current season, bringing a new limited-time event, anniversary plans, and more</p><p>Airlock Arena</p><p></p><p><a href="https://bleedingcool.com/games/co-op-roguelike-airlock-arena-released-for-steam/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="bleedingcool.com/games/co-op-roguelike-airlock-arena-released-for-steam/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bleedingcool.com/games/co-op-r</span><span class="invisible">oguelike-airlock-arena-released-for-steam/</span></a></p><p>Airlock Arena has officially been released on Steam this week, giving players a new co-op roguelike adventure set in space</p><p>Dead as Disco,</p><p><a href="https://gamerant.com/hi-fi-rush-sifu-dead-as-disco-similar-how-rhythm/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="gamerant.com/hi-fi-rush-sifu-dead-as-disco-similar-how-rhythm/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">gamerant.com/hi-fi-rush-sifu-d</span><span class="invisible">ead-as-disco-similar-how-rhythm/</span></a></p><p></p><p>Brain Jar Games&#x27; upcoming debut indie, Dead as Disco, appears to be the perfect blend of Hi-Fi Rush and Sifu, meaning it&#x27;s something which players should keep an eye on if they&#x27;re a fan of<br> martial arts and rhythm-based gameplay.</p><p>Wanderstop</p><p></p><p><a href="https://fingerguns.net/reviews/2025/03/26/wanderstop-review-ps5-a-good-cuppa/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="fingerguns.net/reviews/2025/03/26/wanderstop-review-ps5-a-good-cuppa/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fingerguns.net/reviews/2025/03</span><span class="invisible">/26/wanderstop-review-ps5-a-good-cuppa/</span></a></p><p>Tea making cosy adventure, Wanderstop, is out now.

Rather than players focusing on games from major studios, there has been a surge in indie games.

In the 80s and 90s, building out a<br> video game associated with a major film release was a great marketing tactic to reach new audiences. This brought us titles like Goldeneye 007 on N64, Aladdin on SNES, or the infamous<br> E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial on Atari. While there has always been some level of official licensing of<br> popular brands in video games, the frequency is far from what existed in the early years of gaming,<br> mostly from a decline in the overall quality within those licensed games. Recently, though, there has<br> been a resurgence of officially licensed games and it’s coming from the indie gaming scene.</p><p>Indie Studios Are Breathing New Life Into Classic Franchises</p><p><a href="https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/indie-games-old-franchises-new/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="comicbook.com/gaming/news/indie-games-old-franchises-new/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">comicbook.com/gaming/news/indi</span><span class="invisible">e-games-old-franchises-new/</span></a></p><p>Every console generation, you&#x27;ll constantly see Sony and Nintendo re-releasing their old games in a<br> new way, and a new wave of appreciation for the classics that still hold up.

The first games in this genre were<br> text adventure games, in which players use text commands to control characters and influence the<br> environment.</p><p>Part 1: Text adventure</p><p></p><p>Colossal Cave Adventure (1976), written by William Crowther and Don Woods, is considered to be the first adventure game, and it had a significant influence on the genre&#x27;s early development.<br> Crowther was an avid caver and role-playing game enthusiast; he wrote a text adventure based on his own knowledge of the Mammoth Cave system in Kentucky.<br> The program, which he named Adventure, was written on the company&#x27;s PDP-10 and used 300 kilobytes of memory. The program was spread through ARPANET (the precursor to the internet,<br> yay), which led Woods to modify and expand the game, eventually becoming Colossal Cave Adventure.</p><p>Following its release on ARPANET (the precursor to the internet, in case you forgot. ;) ), numerous variations of Colossal Cave Adventure appeared throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s, with<br> some of these later versions being re-christened Colossal Adventure or Colossal Caves.<br> The genre gained commercial success with titles designed for home computers. Scott Adams<br> launched Adventure International to publish text adventures, they released 12 adventure games,<br> including an adaptation of Colossal Cave Adventure, while a number of MIT students formed<br> Infocom to bring their game Zork from mainframe to home computers, and it was a commercial<br> success.</p><p>Infocom later released Deadline in 1982, which had a more complex text parser, and more NPCs<br> acting independently of the player. Also, innovative was its use of &quot;feelies,&quot; which were physical<br> documents unique to the game itself that aided the player in solving the mystery, which also<br> resulted in the higher cost of the game at the time of its release relative to other text adventures.<br> These feelies would soon become standard within the text adventure genre.</p><p>When personal computers gained the ability to display graphics, the text adventure genre began to<br> wane, and by 1990 there were few if any commercial releases, though in the UK publisher Zenobi<br> released many games that could be purchased via mail order during the first half of the 90s. Non-<br> commercial text adventure games have been developed for many years, mostly as indie games by a<br> small team or solo developers.</p><p>Tools to Build Text Adventure Games are still being developed. Here are some examples if you want to try building your own game or just play around with them just for fun:</p><p>1. Twine</p><p><a href="https://twinery.org/" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>twinery.org/</a></p><p>You don&#x27;t need any coding experience for simple, basic stories, which is where Twine comes in.<br> Giving you the tools you need to start creating your interactive fiction, Twine runs on desktop and<br> in your browser.</p><p>Simply use the app to create your interactive stories and export them as web pages. When your<br> story is finished, upload the HTML files to a web server and share them with the world.</p><p>For more complex narratives, Twine supports features like variables and conditional logic. It also<br> supports JavaScript, CSS, and images if you want to present your story as more than standard<br> interactive fiction.</p><p>2. Quest</p><p><a href="https://textadventures.co.uk/quest" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>textadventures.co.uk/quest</a></p><p></p><p>While you don&#x27;t need programming experience to<br> use these text adventure makers, it can help with<br> Quest. It features a built-in scripting language for<br> handling complex logic and supports the addition<br> of sound, images, and video.</p><p>Available for Windows or in your browser,<br> completed Quest games can be exported to the web<br> and played online. Furthermore, there are no<br> commercial restrictions, so you can even sell your<br> Quest games if you want to.</p><p>Quest is open source under the MIT License, which means you can download the source code and<br> modify it. You probably won&#x27;t do this, but forking the project remains a possibility if you don&#x27;t like<br> the Informdirection Quest takes in the future or if you are just curious about the code behind it.</p><p>3. ADRIFT</p><p><a href="https://www.adrift.co/" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>www.adrift.co/</a></p><p>ADRIFT is one of the oldest functioning options for creating your own text-based games. Its unique<br> selling point is pretty clear: absolutely no programming experience needed, even if you want to create non-trivial narratives.</p><p>The beauty of ADRIFT is that everything is driven by the GUI. This means drag-and-drop<br> selections, folder navigation, drop-down menus, etc. All characters, events, objects, variables, etc.<br> are click-to-set-up, making ADRIFT one of the easiest systems to use.</p><p>The only downside is that ADRIFT games can only be played through the ADRIFT Runner application. The good news is that ADRIFT is cross-platform, so it&#x27;s not too much of an<br> inconvenience.</p><p>4. Inform</p><p><a href="https://ganelson.github.io/inform-website/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="ganelson.github.io/inform-website/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ganelson.github.io/inform-webs</span><span class="invisible">ite/</span></a></p><p></p><p>A free app that uses a programming language based on<br> English, Inform features two built-in books to help you learn. These are a tutorial, Writing With Inform, and The Inform Recipe Book.</p><p>Using the tutorial, you can ease yourself into the software; the recipe books shows you how to<br> control objects in your text adventures.</p><p>In addition to Windows, macOS, and Linux, versions of Inform are available for FreeBSD and<br> Raspberry Pi. Nice!</p><p>5. Squiffy</p><p><a href="https://textadventures.co.uk/squiffy" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>textadventures.co.uk/squiffy</a></p><p>From the same team as Quest is the simpler Squiffy tool. While Quest is aimed at writers planning to create advanced text adventures or gamebooks, Squiffy focuses on story.</p><p>Free and open source, Squiffy outputs completed games as HTML and JavaScript so you can upload<br> them to the web. This can be your own site or the <a href="http://textadventures.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">textadventures.co.uk</a> community.</p><p>6.
