    Yes, I have played them. You are a worse game designer.
    yes. That's why I don't promise computer games for people who enter my domain. The 3d model web deployment area seems better for people who failed at game design.

    I don't think that version can help you with your failed item.

    the only reason substandard garbage products aren’t moneymakers is because of all the hostile reviews.
    somehow I still haven't even mentioned the reviews. But now that you want to explore that area, internet's review system is somewhat broken. Not only do they bash good products to the ground simply because it competes against some golden boys, but also they haven't provided electricity safety standards with their review. Thus when we buy the product that they recommended, end result of electric shocks and burned computer equipment. But of course it's more important if there's single black pixel in the device's screen.

    Tero’s demonstrated utter incompetence at understanding requirements is nobody else’s fault.
    There's multiple different versions of Tero available with different hat: 1) management one 2) requirement one 3) specification one 4) programmer one 5) data entry one 6) build/version control one 7) worldwide success one 8) error handling one 9) release one 10) failure one 11) measurement one 12) paperwork one 13) timing one 14) accuracy one 15) details one etc. You should assign the failed item to one of these, so I can use correct hat to correct it.

    your opinion has been noted and rejected

    But your explanation doesn’t say anything about why 2D websites are bad;
    Well, given that we need to build the next evolution for the technology that we use, our new specification for the tech does the following changes to the status quo: 1) step from 2d to 3d 2) step from 2d video technology to 3d models tech 3) step from recording past events to designing the future 4) step from camera record button press to actually having fine-tuned control of how the scene looks like 5) step from complex asset rendering chains to easy user interfaces 5) step from copyright infringement to actually following copyright See, every one of these changes are going to the positive direction, and thus 2d websites are worse than the end result that we get when we follow these practices.

    Nobody wants to admit they made something less than perfect.
    Everyone will just have different criteria for perfection. If I claim that in this image, every pixel is correct, then there's always counterargument that your specification which tells what is correct has been incorrectly designed. But the counterargument for that is that I didn't write the specification, and my perfection only depends on how far the implementation differs from that specific specification. Thus if you compare the image to some other specification, there is no chance of finding a match and thus every project can be declared failure simply because you shifted your focus from the specification that the work was based on, to some completely different specification. Thus every project that matches its original specification has been perfectly implemented, but at the same time it's huge failure against other specs.

    And yet, no one who does what you do
    Unfortunately there's very small number of such people available in the world. They would need to be: 1) broken 2) awesome 3) popular beyond belief 4) visible everywhere 5) perfectly implemented 6) more accurate than atomic clocks 7) always on time for deadline 8) not following regular patterns 9) doesn't work like normal humans 10) marked as a robot instead 11) failing are-you-a-robot test 12) hard working 13) more complex than your loan application 14) built from spaghetti 15) but all dependencies still exactly correct 16) solving world's biggest problems See, it's just impossible for anyone to meet all these requirements.

    File format incompatibility will not protect from copyright trolls like you, because you’ll always dream up some trumped up claim to demand your blood money.
    It's the courts that decide what level proof is required for getting some outrageous claims pass the legal review. If RIAA claims some dead woman's computer was still running and constantly swapping copyrighted works belonging to RIAA, this claim could still be true even if the woman is dead and buried. If they claim that it's running some windows software that is incompatible with her macintosh, that would be a grounds for appeal or at least legal review. So when you dead granny gets jailtime for that, she can apply for a dismissal of the charges before spending one night at jail.

    The suggestion that you hate machines more than humans is a first.
    Yes. I hate gadgets enough that I "make them look nice". Implementing "it looks nice" for a gadget is a worst thing you can do to it. Its usefulness has been hidden behind bling and flashy animations.
    If you actually hated gadgets you wouldn’t be in programming.
    Maybe I just like the complexity and logic. Humans simply don't have that.

    So you crippled your own kindergartener-friendly software, then.
    Its not for kindergartener level. There's some features that make it unsuitable at that level: 1) the user interface is too complicated 2) you need to understand graph data structure that is teached at university 3) the builder tool requires hosting setup to be available 4) 3d graphics tools like blender have generally be too difficult for that level children. I'm more aiming at high school level children.

    I’d ask you for a citation to this claim
    Sadly for you the government of finland/legal eagles/the court (==käräjäoikeus) decided that the details are sealed behind impenetrable wall of silence. So I'm not allowed to provide these details you request.

    So, in 1998?
    Yes, thats around when it started. Still alive.

    when you can’t even control yourself to meet your own standards
    Yes. This might be more dangerous property of internet than you think. This "controlling yourself" is significant failure in internet. (some kids die because tiktok videos recommend them to eat 30 hamburgers as fast as possible etc, which is clearly a failure in "controlling yourself" on internet when internet demands stupidity.)

    so claiming that you’re successful because nobody uses your shit and Blender failed by being popular isn’t a surprise.
    Yes, I can "reserse" the keywords used to evaluate the products simply because I implemented both the successful ones (==symbian) and the area where symbian's successes were turned to failures. (==meshpage). So I get special permission by the government to turn these failures to successes and successes to failures. This is very powerful property that took 27 years to implement. So you can't claim that I received the permission without doing any work.

    But you hate communities to begin with,
    Yes, because I hate your community: 1) I let you use the tool I built 2) I give you requirement to build mansions 3) I patiently wait for end results without actually building those mansions myself, so that your community would have some fun activities to do. But guess the hatred is so deep that the community must reject these invitations.

    you claimed that you deserved a mansion because another coder got one
    noone ever talked about some another coder. The real reason is that 1) I actually built a tool 2) It's common practise in internet to push your requirements to be implemented by a community 3) and once the requirement is community's responsibility, noone else can implement it But a) looks like this community is built by lazy bastards b) they have significant troubles using the tool since they couldn't get a cube to the screen c) but the problem really is that they didn't try to do their jobs properly
    that you’d be a millionaire if only your competitors were banned
    Yes. If competitors are doing illegal stuff, we should call the bluff. It's not feasible to let them run the show while noone else in the world can take over their business simply because they are violating the law to do it.
    your failed bus adverts meant you were owed money.
    I didn't even try to extract money from the market in the advert. It's just that the experiment demonstrated watertight that getting money from the market sufficient amounts is impossible. Thus the only alternative left is that government pays for the fun.

    for people who already use software created by your competition, why would they start using Meshpage as an alternative?
    There's constantly coming new young people from schools and universities to the market for 3d modelling tools. These new people have either alternative to learn autocad or some software built in 1980s and what is already very complicated and burdensome to learn. Or they could use something modern, which is easier to learn and more suitable for currently available problems in internet, like creation of youtube videos for the popularity market, or making their homepage look nice.
    What does Meshpage offer besides having a browser environment nobody asked for,
    You can do interactive web pages with 3d models. Graphics designers who can design the 3d models are always looking for new ways to get their work visible to ordinary internet users.
    and a different UI because you think that conventional clicking methods are stupid?
    The output of builder tool is actually a zip file. It doesn't have any clicking methods. The user interface of the builder tool is something we consider "development user interface", i.e. it isn't actually meant for end users, but more like semi-professional people who have hosting setup available. The builder's output does not really change user's home page clicking methods or anything like that.

    Blender is not part of that market.
    correct. Blender's main failure is that it is popular.
    Your only hope for competing with Blender is praying that they get nailed for copyright infringement somehow.
    There is another niche where we can excel. It's the web deployment area. Blender has significant problems deploying the output of blender in web. Video files after some cloud rendering is their only alternative, but it has no interactive elements in it.
