New games every week!

13th December 2019
After yesterday's Petit Switch release, I took a few hours break, and came back to coding later in the day.
My plan was to rearrange a few sections of this website, and try my best to improve the way the Petit Switch page looks.

Currently, each of the icons leads to a separate page with more details about the games.
What I'd like to do, though, is make things a little less paginated.
Have it so you can click on an icon, and somewhere a little gif/youtube video will play, to give you an idea of what the game is.

It won't be "too" hard to get gifs of the games. I already have all the little 30-second mp4 Switch Screencaptures for all the games, and I have a script that can easily convert them to gif, so that isn't an issue.
The issue is trying to figure out exactly where to put the gif on the page.
If I place the gif at the top, but you click the icon at the bottom, you'd need to scroll all the way up before you can see it.
A "hover-popup" might work on desktop, but won't work if you're using a mobile/tablet because those don't "do" hover.

As I started to make my tweaks, the news of yesterday's UK votes started to trickle in, and I'll be honest, it reduced my motivation to a standstill.

A shocking result, and one that will no doubt impact a lot of things, especially health wise, going ahead.
Total disaster.

Suffice to say, the website changes ultimately didn't happen.
I still don't really know what it is I want to do with it, and how I'm hoping to do it.
If you've any suggestions, do let me know!
