![]() I know that this review comes across as negative, and that's largely because I can't help but compare it negatively to the previous game. This is fine for small kids but also tedious to sit through for us because we are adults and we like to consume dense things rather than liquid slurry. I also saw a reviewer compare it to YIIK which seems like a wildly unfair assessment. To be fair, that only jumps out to me because the writing is otherwise much less bad than that game. He seems as if the writer played the Ratchet and Clank remake and though Captain Klark was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo frickin funny. The lowest point is probably Captain Kalaw. In terms of quality it's like some kid's TV show. I love that the furry freaks behind these games put their all into making their fantasy about anthropomorphic cats & dogs, colonialism and historical revisionism come to life. The writing for the first game was much maligned and if anything this sequel doubles down, but I can't bring myself to hate it. Also a dashing punch that comes from offscreen that you have to anticipate every time he stops slamming, because there is no other cue. Some are less bad than others, but the absolute worst is Askal, who does half-screen jumps into ground-slams, and spends half his time surrounded by little projectiles. Also, many of their attacks turn their bodies into instant hurtboxes, and often aren't well telegraphed. Why? Well, smaller foes are typically either off-screen, or close enough to instantly cause harm to you. The fights against really large bosses are usually fine, mid-sized bosses are mixed and the player-character-sized bosses are almost all complete dogshit. The effect of this is that the game is quite exhausting to play at times and it took me a while to finish.Īnd those bad boss fights. Doesn't help that when you do attack an enemy, there is no feeling of impact (unlike the player character who gets stunned by hits). And unlike FP1, the core gameplay isn't quite as engaging, since besides some good platforming and gimmicks you're mostly just ignoring the enemies and taking random hits. In general, the difference between FP1 and 2 is that the former feels more restrained, with level design that guides you forward, whereas FP2 regularly makes it difficult to tell which way you're meant to be going. The added guard mechanic seems useless but thankfully wasn't required for Lilac, whose dash has about a billion i-frames and does good damage. Enemies are almost entirely not worth dealing with, as many of them have untelegraphed attacks and a tonne of HP, but you will still take plenty of damage from enemies that attack as you run past. In one stage, there is a crushing block hazard that drops so fast that you actually can't avoid it if you're stood still, which you may be if you boosted forward and bopped off the wall where it comes down. Sadly, most of the levels are at least a little chaotic, as there are enemies and stage hazards that seem unavoidable given the speed of the game. Some levels, like the Ancestral Forge and Nalao Lake, are really bad, but there are also some great stages- Lightning Tower is my favourite, mixing in some very light puzzle elements with hazards that are activated as you turn on power, and generally a more calculated level design with a good sense of progress as you climb. This scope is impressive but it's clear that the developers had ambitions beyond reason, leading to both a lengthy development period and a really hit-and-miss quality to the levels and boss fights. There are many gimmicks and almost all levels have a good sense of individual identity both visually and in terms of gameplay. The level design is more ambitious than the first game with long, complex, multi-route levels. For an indie 2D platformer with a breakneck pace that's a lot of level. The game could feasibly take someone 10 hours to finish on a first playthrough and I expect most will be over 8 hours at least. It's a trite comment at this point, but this is another case for "Steam should have a mixed recommendation option instead of just 'yes' and 'no'."įirst of all, it's impossible not to be impressed by the amount of real content in this game.

The second, sturdy layer acts as the base for both the Original Purple and Kid Mattress. This layer, which sits underneath the Purple Grid™, comprises two high-density foams of different firmness: the first layer is soft while the second is firm for extra support. The Purple Grid™ is infused with gel for extra cooling.ĭual-Layered Comfort Foam – The Original Purple and Kid Mattress both have something called Dual-Layered Comfort Foam. The Purple Grid™ is so named for its grid-like structure, and it’s the comfort layer of every Purple Mattress. A stretchy, responsive material that cradles the body but doesn’t sink, this is Purple’s answer to the ubiquitous memory foam. Purple Grid™ – The Purple Grid™ is made of Purple’s own Hyper-Elastic Polymer™. And of course, the hybrid models contain pocketed coils, while the Original Purple and Kid Mattress do not. The difference is the thickness and composition of every layer. Though Purple has five different mattresses, they all have similar materials. Some customers report the beds are too cool.The feel of the Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ is quite unique, and some sleepers may prefer the feel of memory foam.Purple has a range of firmnesses and two different mattress types to suit every sleeping position.Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ deters sagging while relieving pressure points and contouring closely to the body.Let’s take a look at all this popular brand has to offer. The gel-infused Purple Grid™, combined with built-in air channels, make this brand one of the coolest (literally) mattress brands out there. Made of Hyper-Elastic Polymer™, this stretchy, responsive material keeps the sleeper cool and prevents that all-too-familiar “trapped” feeling common to traditional memory foam mattresses. Unlike most other online mattress brands who use memory foam, Purple invented their own patented material for mattresses, called the Purple Grid™. The Purple Mattress brand is relatively new to the mattress industry, but their popularity has soared with their innovative foams and thousands of satisfied customer reviews. ![]() Unpredictable price moves: Because silver has worth in multiple categories, its price can waver wildly, caught in a tug-of-war between its industrial and investment valuations.Your only chance to benefit is if you sell it during a price rise. Limited income/appreciation potential: A a tangible commodity, silver doesn't offer any interest like a bond, or dividends like a stock.Or for something to happen to the industry itself - witness the decline of photographic film, a big user of the metal Vulnerable to technology shifts: There's always potential for silver to be replaced by another metal in its manufacturing uses.Sensitive to recession: Driven as it is by industrial growth, the price of silver can be decimated by an economic slowdown.The metal brings its fair share of risks, as well. Of course, silver - like any investment - isn't all reward. It's also at the forefront of some innovative fields. Silver is used in the manufacture of a variety of things, from glitzy jewelry to humble batteries, from medical equipment to microcircuits. However, silver is an industrial metal as well as an investment metal - which significantly affects its price performance and outlook. In these ways, silver functions like gold as an investment, serving a similar "safe haven" role. Silver holds its value long term and fares well when interest rates are low - and fixed-income investments aren't earning much. As a physical asset, it has intrinsic worth, unlike the dollar or other currencies. The metal also acts as an inflation hedge. Since it's impacted by different influences, silver can be a good way to diversify and counterbalance your portfolio vis-a-vis equities or other paper securities. Tangible assets' prices generally move in the opposite direction from stocks and bonds.įor this reason, many investors turn toward commodities like silver when the stock market has a poor outlook or in times of economic recession or political turmoil. Silver is classified as a commodity - a publicly traded, tangible asset. ![]() Once established, thyme doesn’t like to sit in soggy soil. For guaranteed results, it is easier to start seeds indoors, then transplant them outside once the weather has warmed. Thyme can be grown from seed in the garden but it can take between 2 to 4 weeks to germinate. But if you don’t see yourself using as much as you’ve harvested, maybe it would be a better idea to store it whole.Ĭongratulations! You now know how everything that’s needed for drying thyme at home.Lemon Thyme is bushier in nature than many thyme varieties with pretty lilac flowers that bloom in late spring or early summer. So think before you chop, if you need the leaves right away and might use it frequently then by all means grind it or chop it to smaller pieces before storing it. Herbs will last longer and have a stronger flavor when it is stored whole. Label the container with the time and date it was dried and stored so that you have an idea when to replace with freshly-dried leaves. When stored properly, dried thyme will be good for a year or two that is, if you haven’t used it all up before then. Placing the thyme in the refrigerator will extend its shelf life. You can also place the thyme in the vegetable storage space in your refrigerator however, you need to make sure that the leaves are in an air-tight container to prevent the humidity from getting in contact with the dried leaves. You can place the container in a cool and dry area like a cellar or a cupboard. You need to use dark-colored jars or opaque containers to block out the sun’s rays. Why? Exposing the already dried out herb to sunlight will cause the leaves to lose their potent flavor. Hide it from the sunĭo not place the container under direct sunlight. If you don’t like using plastic, glass jars that have covers with rubber seals will do the trick. Store dried thyme in airtight containers such as re-sealable bags or plastic containers with air-tight lids. If it’s the latter, here are a few ways to do it correctly and save its flavor for later. When you do choose to use the microwave, it is advisable that you check on the leaves constantly.į you see small wisps of smoke coming out of the thyme leaves, you need to stop immediately.ĭrying thyme isn’t that hard, and now that the leaves are dry, it’s time you used or store them for future use. If after one minute the leaves aren’t dry, you can nuke them again on high for another thirty seconds, continue heating the leaves in the microwave using thirty-second bursts until the thyme is dry enough to your liking.Turn on the microwave and blast the thyme leaves on high heat for 30 seconds.Place the leaves in a microwaveable container and replace the lid.In the event that you’re in a real rush to get dry thyme, you can use the microwave. READ ALSO: Which Food Dehydrator is Right for You Drying thyme in the microwave Yes, a food dehydrator may be expensive but it is very handy especially for those who need to dry leaves quickly. You’ll know that it’s ready when the leaves easily crumble. With the right temperature set, you can dry the leaves in less than a day (usually it takes about 6 to 12 hours to dehydrate thyme). Not only does it dry the leaves faster, it can even prevent molds from growing while drying. Drying thyme in the dehydratorĪn even faster alternative of drying thyme would be using a food dehydrator. ![]() It’s a faster method of drying thyme and with a minimal cost. Shake it every 12 hours and the leaves will be dry in a couple of days. If you don’t have that much time and a little bit of change to spare, you can place the leaves on a sheet of parchment paper spread on a cookie sheet. However, the process may take around one to two weeks. The good thing about this process is that you don’t need any fancy equipment, saving you a bit of cash. Make sure it has a few holes around the top to allow air to pass. ![]()
![]() ![]() Microsoft hasn't been real keen on promoting WebRTC, though it did say earlier this week that it was looking to improve the level of WebRTC compatibility in Edge for basic one-to-one audio and video communications.Īs for the plug-in free experience through Edge, you can preview the functionality right now with the latest version of Edge in Windows 10 version 1511.

Kindly open your Skype app SETTINGS > HELP & FEEDBACK > REPORT A PROBLEM. The plugin free experience that's emerged is powered by the Object RTC (ORTC) media engine, an API that Microsoft recently embedded in Edge.

Skype Preview 8.56.76.35 Update (Early Access). While Skype offers instant messaging, there is a key difference between instant messaging and text messaging: text messages, or SMS messages, are limited to 160 characters on most phones and can only be sent to mobile numbers.Text messages also cost a fee. Skype offers emoticons, Giphy images, and the possibility to send pictures from the web as well. It was back in October of 2014 that Microsoft said its aim was to "make browser-based calls more convenient by removing the need to download a plugin," and so it began collaborating with W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) and IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) to improve standards towards that goal.
