Show HN: The Wall – A Recreation of a WiiWare Classic

https://hexagonsun.net/thewall

The Wall is a somewhat faithful recreation of the WiiWare game “ThruSpace”. A couple of days ago I dusted off my old Wii, saw this game and remembered how fun it was. The global top score of 11 million is forever stuck there, so I thought it’d be interesting to get another global scoreboard going as well.

Apparently we’ve got to ask everyone and their mom at this point
I'd say that sums it up nicely - I mentioned this in another comment but everything around this just smells. After doing some digging into David Parker, I found he just happened to sit on the Ditchley board of directors... strange indeed. https://web.archive.org/web/20230313213623/https://www.ditch...
That's a bit of a stretch, it's more plausible that Mr. Parker is a plant
The whole thing is really suspicious. If you dig deeper on the Centurion Project, things start to get weird. The Centurion Project website has little to no information, archives of the site go back to just over a month ago, and the address and phone number are for a random UPS Store in Calgary.

I got really suspicious when I started looking into Parker himself. He spews the typical "right wing" rhetoric -- Globalists bad, COVID fake etc etc... but if he actually believes that, what was he doing on the board of directors for Ditchley, which contains various ambassadors to China and France, Editor in Chief of the Globe and Mail, CEO of Desjardins, etc?

It is bias if your "factual reality" over-exaggerates the "facts" for the "bad guys" and under-exaggerates / completely neglects to report on the "good guys"

"Bias isn't bias if I agree with the side it's taking!"

Well, except for the very obvious political bias
