Spacewar the legit way.

[Skipspik]

As a curiosity is it possible to get Spacewar the legit way, like buying it ?

I recall the classic Skyrim being available if you have the link To it, is it possible for Spacewar ?
Also, are it's achievements hard ?

It's not even a game, it's just a tech demo for game developers to see how you implement Steamworks into a game.

And as part of videogame history, it is a port of one of the earliest videogames made, dating back as far as 1961.

besides copy/pasting/clicking the steam:// install url it is a normal playable game.

but it comes with the source code as it was made for developers to demonstrate ways to implement many of the Steam features.

steam://install/480 <- c/p to browser or commandline

little warning:
as the appid of the game is (mis)used by certain mods for games and for piracy, legitimately playing spacewar can result in other users calling you a pirate.

I apreciate the warning, I'm already getting call a cheater because i did farm all CS GO achievements x)

"Farm" or "sam". Either will mean you didn't earn them, dude. Play your games properly and don't pirate games instead of trying to legitimize your use of spacewar.

[Skipspik]

By farmed I meant that I got all of them the legit way, including the hard ones. Mostly with bots, And in public deathmatchs and in csgo bots that don't shoot do not get you the achievements. Took me 400h, no external softwar used

[Zekiran]

"grinding" =/= farming, sorry I misinterpreted. :)

[Watermelon {JESUS IS LORD}]

thought they were interchangable terms since they mean basically the same thing, huh the more you know

[Watermelon {JESUS IS LORD}]

yep i agree

[Skipspik]

I mean, I clarified (no external software for my CS GO achievement) and it's out of topic....Though I agree "grinding" would be more appropriate in that case.

well they both mean the same thing so it doesnt matter rlly thats what we are agreeing on

[Zekiran]

"Farming" in this case has often been used by idle programs and level up services, is why I say. Grinding implies the person is playing. Farming can mean someone else is doing the work.

[Zekiran]

Meanings change.

"Sick" = ... ? In the 50s? in the 70s? In the 00s?

They do both mean the same thing overall - but you won't hear "grinding" in reference to idle collecting. Farming means doing the same thing over and over, as does grinding, but farming can basically be walked away from at least in games I've ever played. Grinding implies leveling up and getting better stuff, rather than just more of it. Nuances definitely have changed over the years.
