The hottest take on Russia's hilariously bad attempts to block Telegram over the last two days.

@manu Yeah, I don't understand why Firefox removed the icon from defaults. In Chrome, it almost becomes a strategy: Close down Google Reader, remove RSS icon from Chrome, start pushing publishers to use your proprietary AMP thing instead 
So... some lame human took my Apache 2 licensed "Cat Avatar Generator" app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.agateau.catgenerator …), added ads to it and put it on Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.swagselfie.catgenerator&rdid=com.swagselfie.catgenerator …). While AFAIK this is not a license violation, it is of very poor taste...
Thanks to Poussinou for pointing this out: https://github.com/agateau/cat-avatar-generator-app/issues/7

Playing around with a new icon for Pixel Wheels, using Endesga edg32 palette in Aseprite.
Still wondering if it looks punchy or if the colors clash horribly :)
After too many attempts at drawing decent top-down trees for Pixel Wheels, I am considering changing to an RPG style perspective. True top-down is too frustrating to draw with. This is what I have so far.
The only drawback is I would have to remove the screen rotation in the game, but lots of people seems to dislike it, so maybe it's not a problem, what do you think?

Check out scrcpy! A new tool from my pal @rom1v to display and control Android devices via USB. Lighter and faster than Vysor.
