i Love Vivaldi Browser

So, Vivaldia... Vivaldi Technology's foray into the video game publishing industry perhaps?
It is indeed quite polished, and having tried it out, I wouldn't miss
vivaldi://dino
that much anymore.EDIT
Just a small critique, give us a favicon, please!
EDIT 2
The soundtrack doesn't seem to always loop. At some point it just stops for a few seconds before starting over again. -
@pesala: actually i support @pesala opinion and yes it makes vivaldi look stupid and childish remove it pls !! and focus on innovative and productive features that can actually make difference and make vivaldi easier to use and has it's own ideas ,, i know you're doing your best but distracting yourselves by developing a game that no one is interested in is unfortunate with my all respect
-
@pesala, @mizouniihichem You're all making a big deal out of nothing, right click on the icon, disable it, done, you don't have to bother about it again.
-
@mizouniihichem Yay! & while you're at it, pls also remove tabs, speed dial, address & search bars & settings. Not sure if Vivaldi should be able to display web pages…
(A little more appropriate version of this would be:
Yay! & while you're at it, pls also remove panels, tab tiling, SD & window bg images &c
)

I was wondering what made it so hard to play — can we please get configurable controls? I’m missing my good ol’
hjkl
. How can anyone lay their fingers down in several rows?
I’m not a gamer it seems…
-
@mizouniihichem No plans to remove it but don't worry, if another comes asking us to remove a feature you like, we won't do that either.
-
@iAN-CooG First impressions are a big deal. I already disabled it, but every new user who downloads Vivaldi will wonder why this was included. Easter Eggs that nobody sees and needs to care about do not detract from the Vivaldi brand.
-
Does this mean we can list vivaldi in Steam now?
-
@LonM Not a bad idea actually It and Vivaldia with Vivaldi as the publisher
-
@mizouniihichem how about translating the game to your language instead of "vocalizing" the thumbs up button? That would be more helpful and meaningful to Vivaldi if you care about it.

@Pesala Why so grumpy? What you are so upset about is called "promo" and guess what, when it's going to be in the news many people will download Vivaldi out of plain curiosity and maybe they will like Vivaldi and discover its other features as well and use it, that's far better than nobody downloading your browser because of some "stupid*" customizing tab entries gimmicks, right? Marketing basics 0 1. Plus it's something light-hearted, non intrusive and of a certain quality, not the usual heavy corporate spam.
Also it's not my business in what manner and style you want to communicate with the developers, but since other people can see what you are writing and can be offended, insulted and hurt by your derogatory attitude against games please refrain next time from expressions like "a stupid* game", "those who want to waste their time", "Children who want to play Super Mario, Snake, or Tetris" .

this bug has existed for almost two years
VB-47827 "Windows Desktop shortcut gets wrong name after drag from address field -
Cookies and Kudos to the first who manages to give Vivaldia infinite lives (Trainer++ mode), because it's just too bloody hard for me :face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

- I fail to see how it was made any easier to exit break mode.
- What is the point of including a stupid game with the browser? There is no end of games available in websites for those who want to waste their time.
Hope for their sake it was only ~100KB otherwise it definitely falls under the true definition of bloat (unlike mail etc.)!
(Or maybe I'm just grumpy because I'm apparently too old to be a gamer nowadays - barely able to get past 30 seconds in the bloody thing! )
(Edit for clarity; I'm joking of course - I don't mind the game, assuming it isn't multi-megabytes of bloat... just wish I could play it! :face_with_stuck-out_tongue: )
-
@pathduck: If you could finish it during the first run, it would be no fun.
Part of the fun of the game is the ability to gradually get further in it. There is quite a lot of variation on the way.

Why so grumpy?
Why do you assume that I am grumpy? It is just a bad decision that detracts from the Vivaldi brand.
It does not deserve a place on the Start Page, nor a checkbox in Settings to turn it off. Settings are already cluttered, but there are many other things yet to be added from Chrome Settings.
It is typical feature creep and bloat.

Because you write things an old grumpy man that have stopped having fun in his life and rants about others wanting to continue having fun themselves would write, simple as that.
There are dozens of features (and more to come like M3) in Vivaldi I don't use, I'm not going to tell others they're useless and they shouldn't be using them, or even telling Vivaldi they're bad decisions and to remove them just because I find them useless for me. I just don't use them, that's all. -
@iAN-CooG You completely missed the point. I know I don't have to use it, and I know I can easily hide it. New and existing users will wonder why on earth this was added.

@mossman The entire game fits into 2.4MB (according to the network tab of the dev tools), The majority of that is the audio file. This is quite small for a full-fledged game, and will likely be compressed further within the installer.
