Scammers are impersonating farming sim Coral Island, with added NFTs
Halloween might be over, but island farming sim Coral Island appears to have generated a doppelganger on social media that has a hankering for NFTs. Coral Island’s developers Stairway Games have brought attention to the scam account, which uses the real game’s logo and key art but adds an extra web3 cryptobro twist by linking itself to the GameFi blockchain gaming platform. Stairway, as you would, are calling shenanigans.
Lovely tidying game A Little To The Left has added a skip puzzle feature because of an article we done
I’ve long been excited about the possibilities offered by upcoming tidying things up nicely game A Little To The Left, and back in May this year Alice0 (one of us is RPS’s Mirror Universe Alice, but nobody knows which) finally had a crack at it. The way she wanted to organise keys wasn’t what the game thought was the right way, and her article examined this frustration; she described the canonical correct solution as being that of a “domestic Joker”.
The developers at Max Inferno Studios read this article and decided that, you know what? Alice0 was on to something. They contacted us to let us know that her piece was the inspiration for adding a feature called Let It Be, a skip puzzle function that you can access at any time. Anne Macmillan, who’s a co-founder of Max Inferno Studios as well as artist and animator for A Little To The Left, was kind enough to talk to me about it.

Strictly and EastEnders star James Bye reveals why there is ‘added pressure’ for him to reach the final
EastEnders actor James Bye has revealed he is under “added pressure” to make it to the final of Strictly Come Dancing.
James, 38, who played market trader Martin Fowler in the BBC soap since 2014 has opened up about his nerves ahead of Strictly.

The family man has explained how the success of the Albert Square residents who have previously competed on the reality show is very daunting.
Asked whether he has the glitterball trophy in his sights, James said: “I’d love to get to Blackpool, then you can say you really gave it a good go. There is also the added pressure that the last three people from EastEnders have been in the final!”
James is of course referring to Rose Ayling-Ellis, who played Frankie on the show, who won last year with Giovanni Pernice.
Prior to that, in 2021, Maisie Smith, aka Tiffany Butcher Baker, was runner-up, while in 2020, Honey Mitchell actress Emma Barton finished third.

And even those Walford favourites who didn’t make the final made quite the impression.
James revealed: “My best friend, Davood Ghadami [Kush Kazemi] was on the show years ago, and I came to watch and he was great. I remember him doing the Paso Doble and that did look good.
“At the time I wound him up about it, but I was really proud of him. Also Jake Wood, when he did the snake hips to Mambo No. 5, that was a million miles from Max Branning.”
James also sang the praises of reigning champion Rose.

“When the music dropped I think she brought the nation to tears,” he said. “It was beautiful and she is such an incredible human being.”
As for any advice his co-stars past and present have given him, James told how they have all their wise words are “pretty much the same”.
He added: When I was announced I had lots of people calling me, Brian Conley, Tameka Empson and obviously Davood. The advice to be honest, was pretty much the same and it was just enjoy yourself and embrace it.
“It’s completely different to anything else. I think Brian’s words were ‘You’re never going to have an experience like it, so just don’t miss a beat, just go with it’, and I’m really going to hold on to that.”
Of course juggling a full time role on the soap with Strictly’s intense training schedule isn’t easy, but James has worked with EastEnders bosses to make sure he can do both.
He told The Sun Online: “As far as I’m aware at the minute they’re going to quieten me down as much as possible.

“I’m still going to be in the show, but the beauty is that we film across the road [from Strictly studios] so as soon as I’m finished filming I can shoot over to this and rehearse.
“We’re just going to have to find time where we can to start with, but they’re really understanding at EastEnders, they’re brilliant at that.”

Instagram just quietly added QR codes for posts
I hate to squash the hopes of QR code haters, but it appears to bet one piece of pandemic tech that’s here to stay.
Users on Instagram can now share posts, Reels, tags, and locations on its searchable Map experience through QR codes. Plenty of people hate the QR code experience thwarted onto us by the pandemic, but, as TechCrunch reported, there is reason to believe it can be effective in marketing campaigns.
QR code sharing is now an option for all users on the app. All you have to do is click the three-dot menu on any Reel, post, or location, click “QR code” on the top right, and save it to your camera roll. You can also add “/qr” to a post’s URL on a browser to generate a QR code.
Meta, the company that owns Instagram, told Mashable that they made the decision in order “to make it easier for people and businesses to share specific content.”
This isn’t an entirely new avenue for Instagram, which has allowed users to share profiles through QR codes of their profiles for years now — just take a look at the stickers dotting subway cars. (It should be noted that this original choice to add QR codes was a pretty direct copy of Snapchat at the time. Classic Instagram.) This is the first time you can do that for individual posts, though.
It’s not difficult to see who might benefit from this change. I’m thinking about musicians sharing show information, artists selling their work and, of course, restaurants (hint: users who use Instagram to make money).
Personally, I have never had the drive to share my Instagram posts via QR code.
