I struggled a bit to figure out exactly where and how to do this, so I thought that I’d share this little tidbit with you. One of those features is the ability to persist database filters on connections to help to de-clutter and organise your connection manager. The same went for pgadmin 3 ( and just like Highlander 2, let’s just try and forget about pgadmin 4 completely ) and I never did find any half decent feature complete Firebird client.Įven if you only use one DBMS regularly, I’d still recommend you give DBeaver a try its so feature rich you won’t believe how you survived without it. ![]() There was just so much about SQL Server Management Studio that I thought could have been improved upon but just could never find the features I needed, or the time to build a plugin to it to accomplish what I wanted. I regularly use Microsoft SQL Server, Firebird and PostgreSQL and having a SQL client that can seamlessly connect between all three is fantastic. ![]() Apart from that, I also love the fact that it I can use it connect to any of the data sources that I use within the same IDE with lots of great tools. There are so many great things about it that I love but of course, first of all it is Free, Open Source Software (FOSS). It is a versatile and universal SQL client. ![]() ![]() You certainly need great features, however, you also need a great UI to be successful in the crowded mobile app market.

![]() ![]() The timing of when the tunes started playing according to where you are in the game is pitch perfect also. The soundtrack is definately up there with hotline miami in terms of quality. Even when i was frustrated i couldn't get over how amazing the game looked. Also an achievement.īUT, the game is gorgeous. Collecting all of them doesn't give you an alternate ending or anything, but it certainly makes you feel good knowing that you challenged yourself to the MAX. one of the souviners took me at least 40 mins to get. Finding them are almost impossible without guides and even when you reach them you will have to try. There are 12 "souviners" and 17 "secret constellations". The collectables are what almost ruined this game for me. For instance you'll teach yourself how to wall jump even if there isn't a wall sticking mechanic, which will help you find the collectables throughout the game. ![]() Unlike other precision platoformers like Super Meat Boy the game has a larger focus of utilizing the gravity gems/timing. EVERYWHERE.Įven at the easiest difficulty setting if you don't have the patience to retry a level again again you will be ♥♥♥♥♥♥. Platforms got smaller, enemies became faster, and oh god the ♥♥♥♥ing spiked walls. Then approaching the first boss there is a sudden difficulty spike. Then you are introduced to bombs, music boxes, smoke bombs, lazer beams, and so on to assist you. You learn the basic mechanics of using the game's gravity gems to float to high unreachable platsforms. Underneath the beautiful aesthics (it honestly had a pixar vibe going on) and the ♥♥♥♥ing amazing sound track lies a game so god damn hard it made me want to burn my computer. No game has frustrated me and entertainmed at the same time so much than Pid. If you like hard platformers, you should check this game out. The game is pretty long as well, but has a great flow and variety to the areas. The scenery, music, atmosphere, and gameplay all combine to form this truly unique experience. Overall though, I really can't stress enough how much I like this game. The other great thing about the beam mechanic is how the solution is always right there in front of you, but you have to figure out where to place the beams, adding a bit of a puzzle aspect. Most of the time you use the beam to carry yourself, but other locations have you using it to carry bombs towards enemies, carry enemies themselves, or even push around light sources needed to light the way for you. The game thoroughly explores this mechanic, with every area in the game having a slight twist to how the game plays. The way this changes how you navigate through the game world is dramatic, and a bit reminiscent of Bionic Commando Rearmed, which some of the Pid team also worked on. The main gimmick here is the ability to place down beams of light that can carry you around. It's really too bad though, because I think Pid is one of the best games around. I personally love the game to death, but I can see why the huge dissonance between how the game looks and feels, vs how it plays, turned a lot of people off. ![]() ![]() The distance between checkpoints is tiny, you have infinite lives, and enemies, traps, and spikes are everywhere. Upon playing it though, the game honestly has more in common with Super Meat Boy than any puzzle platformer. On the outside, Pid looks another artsy puzzle platformer, with its gentle, softly rendered backgrounds, and relaxing acoustic soundtrack. If there's one game that completely failed to find its audience, it's Pid. ![]() ![]() ![]() They also are featuring their hard apple cider made from local apples from the surrounding areas. “We call it Syber Sipping,” says Burd. “We e also have a weekly Farmers’ Market to bring our neighbors to us and help them get their products out to people traveling or living in the surrounding neighborhoods.”īlack Mesa Winery also offers tastings outside at covered tables while maintaining COVID-19 safety requirements.

She loves it so much that she's requested multiple bottles to bring home and share with her friends. Nothing-and I mean nothing-has ever impressed my mom as much as Fly By Jing's Sichuan Chili Crisp. To buy: Fly By Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp, $15 at She's been visiting me over the last few weeks, and our meals together have all started and ended with this incredible jar of explosive flavors. Little did I expect her to be bowled over by how well it smells and tastes with a wide-eyed "oh, wow." It's now the first thing she reaches for when cooking and the last thing she wants to put back in the fridge. So when I opened Fly By Jing's Sichuan Chili Crisp, which I've long heard great things about, I fully expected her to only nod in polite appreciation. Yet if you asked my mom, who commandeered the kitchen (and therefore the fridge), there was always a spot reserved for one essential condiment: chili crisp.Įveryone in my family had their preferred style of chili crisp, and my mom always kept her dearest jar from our local Hakka restaurant away from the sneaky hands of my siblings. In with the stock pot of beef noodle soup, out with the gai lan for lunch in with the plastic bags of peaches and Yuhebao lychees, out with the Aiwen mangoes and watermelons for after-dinner desserts. Feeding a family of six, it was constantly changing. “Hopefully we can show retailers that we can sell well alongside other hot sauce brands.The best way I could describe my Taiwanese family's fridge growing up was like a revolving door. Going forward, the plan is to highlight Fly by Jing’s sales performance among other mainstream brands. Gao said this is creating more leverage for her to ask other retailers to do the same. Target’s buyer did agree to merchandise Fly by Jing in the hot sauce aisle. But being categorized within the ethnic grocery offerings has been another pain point for Fly by Jing.įor example, Fly by Jing has struggled to convince some of its retail partners to place its sauces in the hot sauce aisle - where, she said, foot traffic is often about 4X bigger than the international aisle. On the plus side, retailers also offer the ability to organize sampling sessions – helping create a touchpoint to educate customers on Fly by Jing’s Chinese flavors. Another example is Fly by Jing’s bright orange Costco pallet display, which features educational information about its two-jar Sichuan chili crisp bundle. For instance, being able to create a colorful endcap at a grocery store’s ethnic aisle. This isn’t always easy to do within crowded grocery stores, especially as a brand specializing in high-end Asian products.įor Fly by Jing, asking for flexibility on how to merchandise its products is key to grabbing offline customers’ attention. “On DTC, we really try to show our customers what the product is,” Gao said. “I never thought we’d go into Costco so early,” Gao said.īut with wholesale growth comes the added challenge of creating effective storytelling on a busy shelf, alongside other brands. ![]() The first test run in the Los Angeles market, which began in February, doubled projected sales. For instance, Gao and Fly by Jing were featured as part of Target’s recent Lunar New Year marketing campaign.Īnother mainstream retailer that Fly by Jing recently entered was Costco, which requires offering discounting or product bundling. Gao said the decision to add Target to the company’s roster of distributors is a testament to the company’s attention to DTC brands, and Target’s mission to diversify their grocery offerings. The next retailer came shortly after, with Fly By Jing launching in 100 Target stores spread across the country in early 2022. “Very quickly, the velocities were so strong that we went global,” which encapsulates the entire U.S. The company’s first national retailer was Whole Foods - starting with the mid-Atlantic regions - where it launched at the end of 2021. “I don’t mind it because the velocity is insane.” Eventually Fly by Jing began selling through B-to-B marketplace Faire, which is geared towards small businesses. ![]() This was especially the case when the jars sold out due to its emergent cult status, she said. Sometimes Fly by Jing products are even marked up by these small retailers, Gao said. ![]() However, the brand’s physical retail journey began in small specialty shops – “when a store reached out we’d send them a couple of cases,” Gao said. The company launched on Amazon about a year ago, which began as a test, “and ended up doing really well,” said Gao. The first non-DTC channel Fly by Jing went into was Amazon, which helped expose the brand to convenience-minded shoppers. “I always knew that eventually we’d be in retail but in 2019, I thought DTC would be the only channel for a while,” Gao explained. ![]() ![]() ![]() That is all, but keep checking back for new Zuma Blitz tips and tricks.
