Link Dump

Last month I scoured through Google and bookmarked links of what contemporary discussions/blogs/reviews etc. still survive on the internet about Jiggmin's games. I don't plan on incorporating a lot of them into articles, so I'm dumping them here.

Note: I saved a copy of each link on archive.org in case any break over time.

Calculating Play Counts

This is something I've been meaning to do for years, so here it is!

Notes:

  1. More detailed statistics are at the bottom with references. All but a few of the sites listed were found via Google, so I didn't dig through archives of dead ones.
  2. Due to the decentralized nature of Flash games, it's pretty much impossible to accurately estimate a play count. There were hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of flash sites. The vast majority died over the last decade from flash's slow death (I don't have statistics, but I'd comfortably wager 90%+ are gone now), and a lot of surviving ones don't publicly publish play counts. As a result, assume these numbers are far lower than their actual counts.
  3. jiggmin.com play counts only go up to December 2010 as he …

Sparkworkz's Ownership of Platform Racing

So earlier I was editing the PR3 article, which lead to looking into inXile's history with Line Rider (the company who owned Sparkworkz), which then lead to me wondering more about their history with PR. I found an article on their site about how they found the series, but that's really all. Then I remembered they said they owned the series at one point, and the U.S. has a searchable website where you can look up that sort of stuff. So I dug a little bit and got to this:

I'm not much of a legal guy, but here's some of the highlights I (hopefully) understood and found interesting:

  • inXile first filed for the series in July 2009.
  • Not…

Something Interesting

So a while back I was going through Futurism's GitHub stuff and found a link to Jiggmin's SoundCloud playlist he used for the music.

Pretty neat in and of itself, but I also found another playlist he had on there for PR4 music! It only has 3 songs, but I thought it'd be interesting to share nonetheless.

Nostalgia Project

Currently, we have people who are working to create a Platform Racing 2 Server Client. I belive that there is a lot of people who miss the game and want it back. Click the link below for more detail.

Here is a quick link to the PR2 Client Project:

Jiggmin-ified the Wiki

Hello, fellow fans of Jiggmin! In case anyone's confused about today's changes, I've recently become an adopted admin of this wiki so I've been spending the last few hours Jiggmin-ifying the layout and what not, as well as enabling a few features, such as comments.

I think I'm mostly satisfied with the layout for now. The only thing that still needs some work is the logo since it has a white background that makes it look weird while editing and it lacks "wiki".

Anyway, that's all. Happy editing! :]
