PSA: Unity Player is no longer compatible with Chrome<\/h2>\n

As of Chrome 42 (released April 14th), Unity Player, Java, and Silverlight<\/strong> games will no longer work in Chrome (i.e. NPAPI plugins). There is a clumsy user workaround, but you might seriously want to take a look at the HTML5 export found in Unity 5 instead.<\/p>\n

Also FYI: Unity Player has never<\/strong> worked on Linux. Just saying. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

PSA: You can embed your Ludum Dare web games on your game page<\/h2>\n

I actually added this last Ludum Dare, but didn\u2019t mention it: You can now embed your web games on your game page. Embeds are currently limited to any size equal-to or below 900\u00d7600<\/strong> pixels. The limit is due to the current website layout. If you need more than that, you should offer to full-screen your game.<\/p>\n

And More!<\/h2>\n

Deals, Assets, Wallpapers and more! Click the buttons below the countdown clock for more.<\/p>\n

Keynote! Hosted by Sol_HSA<\/h2>\n

We actually released the keynote early (last week)<\/a>. In case you missed it, Sol_HSA<\/a> challenged you to try something new. Don\u2019t know what I\u2019m talking about? Here it is again:<\/p>\n
