Have you looked at Zero-K? They have some TA history.

It's kind of funny, looks like my main sale purchases are going to be Netherworld Covenenat, which is still on it launch discount, and Bloodrush Undying Wish, which is inexplicably launching in the middle of the seasonal sale. There's also BlazBlue Entropy Effect's new character DLC, also on launch sale, so none of that is really seasonal sale stuff.
I'll pick a couple shmups to pick up, probably Divine Orders and Assault Shell 2, but those are both stingy sales. Only particular sale-sale items I'm looking at are Void Expanse finally putting their DLC back on sale after 2 1/2 years of nothing, and 30XX's character DLC finally getting its first sale, but those are minor even if holdouts.
Was actually rather hoping to pick up Relic Hunters Legend, after they finally put a demo up so I could see the game had more meat to it than it looked like, but annoyingly, they seem to have put the demo up right in the middle of the Feb NextFest, put the game on sale for only a few days, and then nothing since for anyone who saw the demo later, despite pushing release (from early access) back to Q3. Indie devs man, it's like they are just flailing around doing random things.
I guess I'll pick up Idun Frontline Survival (tower defense game where you move the towers around, not a horde survivor) instead, but was hoping to get some partner co-op going with Relic Hunters. I guess we'll try to get that from Synthetik 2 instead, since they finally got their next update out after like two years stalled early access.
The app requires an existing login to use, right? I tried the app since the website's email/password registration screen just returns "An unexpected error occurred" every time I try it, but didn't see a new registration option for the app, just the login option.
How do we prevent this from happening to other instances?
We don't, and we can't. What we need is to stop acting like Actors/People/Groups are single points homed on a single instance. They should be a ring of mirrored instance entities, so the "source" Actor and content are still there when one instance drops out of the ring. Everything is already getting copied around, we're just missing out on the biggest value of that: RAID for identities.
Ie, if I make my accounts on three sites, those should all be me, and it doesn't matter to the fediverse which one I use at any given moment. Same for communities.
That's real federation, not this ramshackle heap of points of failure where we just hope we don't individually get bit too often by shutdowns, even though shutdowns are completely inevitable.
Top-down/twin-stick games where the aim (especially on controller) uses camera handling features, like smoothing the input or a cross-shaped deadzone.
