TaoPhoenix:
I prefer to browse the entries through this portal:

This is interesting:
Per sort categories, do you know if it pulls the same games in the same order?

One discouraging thing about the LD site is that I'm pretty sure at x intervals, when you do "preview", it pulls different games for the "first page" etc on different days. So I was getting tired, but I'd bet a sandwich that after having gone through 16 of 106 pages, what's on today's page 1 is not the same page 1 I looked at yesterday! So it's tricky to mark your progress and be methodical!

And yes, the changeable icons make some difference. I'll have to find a way somehow to merge using both pages.

I believe so, but I haven't done anything to absolutely verify that to be the case.

Well, it's unclear this early, but LD has already flipped their rotator (it might be automated) because the new ones on page 1 are nothing I recognize. On the itch.io under All Games / Most Rated, there's a black circle logo called Close your eyes. So if that stays there, we have our answer. The small nuisance is that there's no "page #", more of a Tumblr Super-Scroll, but then that's something I can use one of my third copies of FF to do and park it on a less used virtual desktop splitter tab and then slowly drift through it bit by bit.

Deozaan:
That's what I see, too.

Here's a non-LD game I'd like to see your opinion on. It's definitely Phoenix-Easy.

Okay, I'm gonna try to use some careful wording, because I may be missing giant creatures in the room.

What ... is this ... "piece of software" supposed to do?

If I scroll to the right for twelve seconds, I ... Win!?!

For this post I am avoiding the topic I had to work harder to avoid paying than "playing" the ... whatever it is.

So do you have any key info that I am missing, such as having adblock running?

My rating system Easy was meant as a rough measure when a bad gamer (me) can get a bunch of levels done in a day or two = easy, whereas a really crisp hand-eye guy can crack what I start calling Mediums, that might take me a week or three. (I'm just terrible at lots of the standard keyboard conventions.)

But this thing is ringing a bell like I'm missing something huge, so officially I can't rate it yet.
