![]() ![]() Just don’t say I didn’t warn you about the questionable story, voice acting, and late game bosses.We are happy to announce that Freedom Planet 2 will be launching in Spring 2022! We hope you look forward to it! ![]() If you were looking for something to scratch that 16-bit Sonic itch this might be it. While Freedom Planet isn’t a perfect experience, it is still a very enjoyable and easily one of the best Sonic the Hedgehog-esque games I’ve played in years. Many games by first-time developers have a tendency to be a bit more challenging to the average player, perhaps because the developers build a game for themselves. There are lots of cheap shots, and one hit kills. This is easily one of the worst parts of the whole experience. ![]() Early bosses are fun and require little effort, while late game bosses are brutal and demand some skill. The only problem with this is I found myself spending most of my time battling bosses in later levels. Overall, Freedom Planet‘s adventure mode takes around two and a half hours to complete, which is a good amount of time for a retro-themed platformer. That said, if I had to rank these levels alongside the 16-bit Sonic games, I’d put them right between the second and third games for Sega Genesis, they are nowhere near as creative as anything seen in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, but aren’t as straightforward as Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Each character has an exclusive level built around their unique abilities, but unfortunately, these aren’t taken advantage of elsewhere. That said, no specific stage stands out, perhaps, as I mentioned before, because you breeze through them all so quickly. However, levels do take their own spin (pun intended) on Sonic’s formula water levels allow swimming in any direction for instance, while other environments have buttons to physically press to advance. The level design feels familiar, as you’re zipping from left to right, going up and down hills and around loops, while occasionally being forced to platform. Also, when playing as Carol, players will miss out on bits of the story, which makes for an even more confusing and disjointed experience, as the narrative was clearly written with Lilac in mind. Even worse some of the cutscenes barely add anything of value to the story or development of characters, like a drawn-out slumber party scene between the protagonists in their clubhouse that would have felt more at home in a fan fiction story about the character’s lives than in the actual game. On top of that, the voice acting is inconsistent both in terms of quality and fidelity some lines sound like they were recorded on a professional setup and others almost sound like a Skype call recording. The story isn’t all that interesting or original - an evil villain with an army of robots steals a powerful stone - but mostly because the other bits of the story are hard to follow and make little sense. Best of all her motorcycle can drive up walls, which is as useful as it is comical.Īdventure mode is the story-driven mode that includes plenty of cutscenes with fully voiced lines, but it is also probably my least favorite mode. When on her motorcycle, Carol zips around quickly, and can still punch and kick, while double jumping makes her spin attacking enemies multiple times per second. The biggest difference between Carol and Lilac, however, is that she can pick up gas cans littered across levels to spawn a motorcycle. She can also wall jump, which allows reaching parts of levels that may not be accessible to Lilac. Instead of being able to dash, Carol has a rapid-fire kick that inflicts a lot of damage in a short period of time. ![]() Carol still has the same kicks and punches as Lilac, but attempting to double jump with her will have her gliding through the air. The other character available in the story-based adventure mode is Carol the wildcat. The mid-air dash can also be used similarly to Sonic’s spin dash to be able to instantly get a boost of speed from a dead stop. The level design doesn’t encourage the use of the mid-air dash very often, a shame since it’s a unique move, but the times you do need it feel solid and thought out. The main character is Lilac, a furry dragon who has a punch attack, a kick, a double jump that causes her to whirlwind enemies, and a mid-air dash that works similarly to the one from the classic Rocket Knight Adventures, which is by all means a good thing. There are three characters on offer and each play differently. ![]()

![]() Because those folders are kept under wraps, so-to-speak, I doubt if Apple’s QA process covers modifications to the contents. ( /Library/Screen Savers/Default Collections.) Admin privileges are required to modify the contents, and I continue to suspect that a bug in the screen saver engine is exposed when those folders are heavily modified with new content. ![]() I continue to have trouble with Cosmos because I added files there. Testing is on-going, however, and isn’t yet comprehensive. I also ran Flurry for several hours without a hiccup. My correspondent ran Flurry for 48 hours. I ran Nature for 12 hours without a problem. The same goes for the suite of specialized, but still built-in screen savers: Aerial, Nature, National Geographic and Cosmos. Lately, I’ve been corresponding with another 2013 Mac Pro owner, and our initial estimate is that, in 10.13.4, the basic macOS screen savers are now in good shape. Lots of podcasts pushed the Mac’s boundaries without a hitch. Using this technique, in February-March, I achieved 37 days of uptime in macOS 10.13.3. My own workaround was to use Apple Menu > Lock Screen instead. I wrote about this in: “ Adventures With the macOS High Sierra Install.” and in “ More Adventures With the macOS High Sierra Install.” One of the Cosmos screen saver images.Ī look at Apple’s and other discussion forums, reveals that this Mac isn’t the only model with screen saver issues in early versions of High Sierra. Long-duration built-in screen savers would lock up and freeze the display after a few hours. But when I upgraded to High Sierra, a new problem was introduced. The just-out-of-the-blue graphics lockups I’d had with my Mac Pro (which shipped with Mavericks) started in Yosemite and continued in El Capitan. Now using an external display is seamless and transparent in closed-display mode. Sometimes getting my Mac to use the right resolution was a big bucket of fail, too. Using an external display with my Touch Bar MacBook Pro in closed-display mode was frustrating because the display would go black and resync every few minutes. Our Managing Editor Jeff Gamet reported to me: But there have also been reports of display issues with modern MacBook Pros, external displays, and closed-display mode that went unresolved, even when invoking Apple’s guidelines. Screen saver issues for other Macs have cropped up along the way. Perhaps the most notable, in my experience, has been issues with the AMD D300 FirePros in the 2013 Mac Pro.

Using streamstats to get neighboring valuesĪs an alternative to MLTK, I use streamstats to mimic how I–as an analyst–investigate an alert.įor our example of a user being seen logging in from an anomalous number of sources, I would start by looking at historical source counts over the past 30 days. If identity data in Splunk for different types of users is high quality, reflects different usage patterns, and there are less than 1024 of them then MLTK may be the direction to go. Unfortunately, outside of editing config files and making sure you have enough processing power, the DensityFunction is limited to 1024 groupings and 100,000 events before it starts sampling data. This algorithm is meant to detect outliers in this kind of data. One of the included algorithms for anomaly detection is called DensityFunction. Splunk’s Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) adds machine learning capabilities to Splunk. It’s getting even worse because more events aren’t getting buried by high counts during certain hours of day. Requiring more than 15 data points, there are 14,298 results. The distribution of source count is an exponential distribution: One example would be if we were looking for users logging in from an anomalous number of sources in an hour. This means more data equals more outliers equals more alerts. Standard deviation can be used to find outliers but a certain percentage of data will always be seen as outlier. In security contexts, user behavior is most often an exponential distribution, low values being commonly seen with high values being more rare. Using standard deviation to find outliers is generally recommended for data that is normally distributed. ![]() Standard deviation measures the amount of spread in a dataset using the value’s distance from the mean. I will also walk you through the use of streamstats to detect anomalies by calculating how far a numerical value is from its neighbors. In this tutorial we will consider different methods for anomaly detection, including standard deviation and MLTK. Standard deviation, however, isn’t always the best solution despite being commonly used. Detecting anomalies is a popular use case for Splunk. ![]() ![]() The focus of the game is on the simulated lives of virtual people called "Sims", and the player is responsible for directing their actions, attending to their "needs", and helping them attain their desires. There is no primary objective or goal to achieve, and instead of fulfilling objectives, the player is encouraged to make choices and engage fully in an interactive environment. The Sims 4 is a social simulation game, similar to preceding titles in the series. A new mainline The Sims title, under the working title "Project Rene", is currently in development. Free content updates introducing and expanding major features have also been released, such as swimming pools, more character customization options, more building tools, and gameplay scenarios. The most recent expansion pack, The Sims 4: Horse Ranch, was released on July 20, 2023. Development of the game has been supported with numerous paid downloadable content packs, namely fourteen expansion packs, twelve game packs, and several stuff packs and kits. The Sims 4 has been commercially successful, topping the all-format video game chart in 2014, and has received over 70 million players worldwide as of 2023, making it the most popular game in the franchise. The Sims 4 received mixed reviews from critics upon its initial release, who praised the game's visual design, improved AI simulation for Sims, and the simplified building tools, but criticized the lack of content compared to prior The Sims titles, frequent loading screens, and missing features. In the months leading up to the game's release, Maxis revealed that several features present in prior The Sims main titles would be omitted at launch, citing insufficient development time and technical complexity this was received negatively by players. The game introduces a newly developed custom game engine, with improved character creation and housebuilding tools, as well as deeper in-game simulation with the new emotion and personality systems for Sims.ĭevelopment of The Sims 4 began as an online multiplayer title, but plans were shifted to a single-player experience following the negative launch reception of Maxis' SimCity in 2013. Like previous titles in the series, The Sims 4 allows players to create and dress characters called "Sims", build and furnish houses for them, and simulate their everyday lives. The game was moved to a free-to-play model on October 18, 2022, monetized by the purchase of various paid downloadable content packs that have been developed since its release. The game was released in North America on September 2, 2014, for Windows, an OS X version was released in February 2015, and PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions were released in November 2017. It is the fourth major title in The Sims series, following The Sims 3 (2009).

The more time you spend with the game, the more you start to recognize patterns to how the puzzles are built. The objective is simple but the methods are abstract. It's more like experimentation in Contraption Maker. Solving these is normally called guesswork or trial and error, but those phrases carry a negative connotation to them. With Contraption Maker, you have all the pieces but you don't know how they fit together. Button on the wall? Up up down down left right left right B A? Once you figure out how, the rest is basically just going through the motions. You know you need to open that door, but you're just not sure how. Most puzzles in video games are of the missing pieces variety. The good news is that a single purchase of Contraption Maker comes with two copies of the game: one for you, and one for your old sandbox buddy in kindergarten. The game offers easy options to restrict rooms to a certain number of players or to toggle between public and private. Public rooms seem to be rare in the Contraption Maker world, but it's just as well since co-op is so much more fulfilling when you can play with a friend. People usually get a sense of what others are trying to accomplish and slowly merge their pieces of the puzzle to contribute to the final goal. It usually isn't as chaotic as it sounds, and thankfully trolls seem to be relatively uncommon. Public rooms can sometimes turn into the old saying of too many cooks spoiling the broth. If you want to actually get anything done, you'll need to master the art of communication. As many as eight players can join in to help turn ordinary machines into incredible ones. This is a community that takes its contraption making seriously!Ĭontraption Maker's co-op mode is essentially a multiplayer building room with a chat box. You might be surprised to learn that most of the user puzzles are genuinely entertaining. At the time of writing there are just over 550 user stages to check out, ranging from simple to insane to that one that's like a game of billiards. Tinker and build whatever you like, then upload your creation to the community so everyone else can scratch their heads.
