Video game Super Bombinhas

The main characters of this platform game are living bombs. Bomba Azul is the only bomb who wasn't captured by the evil Gaxlon. You must save the other bombs and the king Aldan. Each bomb has a special ability: Bomba Amarela can quickly run and jump higher than the others, Bomba Verde can explode, the king Aldan can stop time, etc. After saving a bomb, you can change to it during the adventure.

In the game there are 7 very different regions. Each of them has a final boss. You must wisely use every bomb to advance.

The game also has a level editor to create new levels.

Check Instagram with privacy and free software

Instagram is a centralized social network that requires the use of proprietary software. It's almost impossible to use Instagram without giving up your privacy or freedom... unless we use another front-end, such as Bibliogram, which I describe in this article.

Bibliogram allows consulting user profiles, posts and IGTV videos in a simple way. In the home page, there are search forms for both posts and users.

Check Twitter with free software and privacy, with Nitter

Twitter is a centralized social network that requires the use of proprietary software. It's almost impossible to use Twitter without giving up your privacy or freedom... unless we use another front-end, such as Nitter, which I describe in this article.

I think its name is an acronym from not twitter. But who cares? The thing is that it works well and also the interface is lightweight, it prevents Twitter from getting your IP, you can customize its look, it has native RSS feeds and it's responsive.

It's now in its infancy, so they are expected to include more features, such a login system to admin accounts you follow from its web.
