Added The Sims - X86 Emulator Win98. This one quite difficult to deploy and i've spent several hours to build x86 emulator, a proper de-bloated Windows98 and the simple The Sims vanilla version. From File Archieve Website, they have The Sims Complete Edition which is great, but not for WASM build because the file size was huge at more than 3gb. Gameplay may suffer greatly if the total asset is as huge as 3Gb.

In the end i managed to find a version at abandonwaredos.com where they still have this old classic Vanilla version of the original The Sims with no additional expansion packs and the size was only about 350mb. This is great and good for this this emulator. Packed this version, deployed to Lemon Web Games.

Revamped Malaysian Ringgit Inflation Calculator App as per following changes:

Added Touch Control for Zombocalypse 2 and enable this game to be played on tablets and mobile phones. Performance wise, well it depends on your device. I tested on Samsung S23 Ultra and seems okay. Tested on my IPAD Mini also works great. When many enemies, there's a slowdown abit.

Counterstrike LemonBot is a browser-based tactical shooter experience built around classic counter-terrorist style action, fast rounds, bot opponents, weapon handling, and map-based combat where every movement and shot matters. The game gives players an intense FPS experience where aim, positioning, reaction speed, and tactical awareness all play an important role. It is designed for players who enjoy quick firefights, familiar shooter mechanics, and the pressure of clearing enemies across compact combat spaces.

This was build based on the webxash source code, but i fully modify this to incorporate bot engine and rework completely on the menu, map handling, game logic and many more. Also incorporated bot engine which allows player to play with other bot player.

Removed Rat Attack N64. Upon play testing, game rendering got issue where character models are missing. I would not say this game is playable since objects are missing. Tried legacy N64 rendering mode yield the same result. Maybe future release of emulatorJS fixes this issue, but for now i removed this game.

Previously i have added SimCity 3000 somewhere in early 2026. However, the gameplay was slow sluggish and unplayable. It was using JSDOS emulator running emulated Windows 98 in JSDOS. I have removed this, changed the approach to use X86 WASM Build, which is quite faster seeing that it is more of a JIT compiler method. Well, almost faster does not means its a perfect gameplay or smooth. Still laggy at certain times, but honestly it is playable. Feel free to try out this new build of Sim City 3000.

Fixed Serious Sam Series as per following changes:

Arthur's Nightmare is a creepy fan-made horror game that transforms the familiar world of Arthur into a tense survival experience where you must make it through a series of increasingly dangerous nights. The game combines unsettling visuals, dark humor, and simple point-and-click style mechanics as you monitor your surroundings, react quickly to threats, and try to survive until the end of each night. Its strange reinterpretation of a childhood cartoon, eerie atmosphere, and progressively tougher encounters give Arthur's Nightmare a memorable horror-parody feel that is both bizarre and surprisingly suspenseful.

Updated System Uptime Calculator as per following changes:

AI ICD Coder System - The AI ICD Coder System (AICS) is designed to make hospital clinical coding faster, easier and more manageable by using AI to assist with ICD-11 diagnosis coding and ICD-9-CM procedure coding. Instead of manually searching and coding every patient record one by one, AICS can retrieve discharge information directly from the Hospital Information System (HIS) or accept uploaded CSV data, analyse the documented diagnoses and services, and provide intelligent coding suggestions for users to review and confirm. With human validation built into every stage, coders remain fully in control while benefiting from a more streamlined workflow, reduced repetitive work and easier preparation of DRG-ready clinical data for submission to Protech Health's DRG System.

Major Overhaul on Lemon Web Game Emulator Engine as per following changes:

Added Serious Sam the Second Encounter to the game library. Serious Sam: The Second Encounter browser build ports the classic Serious Engine to WebAssembly (WASM), allowing the full game engine and campaign to run directly inside a modern 64-bit browser. It uses WebGL for hardware-accelerated graphics, Web Audio for sound, SharedArrayBuffer for high-performance memory access, and persistent browser storage for save games. The build includes all 12 campaign levels, selectable difficulty settings, fullscreen support and compatibility fixes for level transitions, enemy behaviour, input handling and browser-based loading. As SharedArrayBuffer requires cross-origin isolation, the game must be hosted with appropriate COOP and COEP response headers and is best played using an up-to-date version of Chrome, Edge or Firefox.

Updated Serious Sam The First Encounter as per following changes:

Life is about giving back, and learning is about moving forward. May a slice of Lemon bring you new insight... So i have drafted plan for the New E-Learning Section. So far i havent come up with each training module yet, but drafted the out layer of the page only. The goal is to have a most user friendly online e-learning platform. So far i have planned out the following topics to cover.

---

These will take time, and i will start to work on this each weekend one topic. Hopefully this be beneficial to our users.

fixed Five Nights at Freddy's 1 to 4. Previously was sourced direct to Genizy build at GitHub, and all of their repositories were removed causing 404 errors. Deployed a new self-hosted version instead of sourcing to other build. This also ensures in the future the game will still runs as it is no longer depends on external source.

Added Portal to the game library. This browser deployment of Valve’s Portal is an unofficial port based on Weliveinhell’s Portal web-port work and the community-maintained nillerusr/source-engine fork. The original C/C++ Source Engine runtime is compiled with Emscripten into WebAssembly, while its ToGLES/OpenGL ES rendering path is translated to WebGL 2, allowing the game’s graphics, physics, audio and interface to run locally inside the browser rather than through cloud streaming. Game resources are delivered on demand from a dedicated CDN and stored persistently in the browser for faster subsequent sessions, bringing the classic Portal experience to modern web browsers without a conventional desktop installation.

Added Dragonsphere DOS Game to the library. This was my childhood game and this is a very memorable game. Not because of the gameplay, not because of the action, not because of the graphic but the story. The game puzzle, for me it was very difficult borderline to impossible to solve without guide. I remember playing without guide took me many months and yet never completed the game. It was after the era of internet where i seek out my good friend "Google" to get the complete guide. The game story was great, got some great plot twists also.

Temporary disable Web-TV. Seems like the streaming provider is unrealiable and is down at the moment. I am trying to source for legitimate way for streaming those free channels as it is supposedly free over-the-air channels in Malaysia and should be made free to Malaysian, alas i know TV3 is not. Other channels, well.... For now i temporarily disable this first until i can find a reliable streaming service.

Half-Life 2 Web Assembly brings Valve’s legendary first-person adventure into the browser, allowing players to experience Gordon Freeman’s journey through City 17 without a traditional installation. Powered by WebAssembly, the game runs its complex environments, physics-based puzzles, intense combat, and iconic Gravity Gun gameplay directly through modern web technology. It is an impressive example of how far browser gaming has come, delivering a classic PC experience with fast loading, responsive controls, and the familiar atmosphere that made Half-Life 2 one of the most influential games ever created.

Search Function Improvements greatly as per changes below.
The current setup preserves original search accuracy, improves memory handling, reduces unnecessary blog formatting, and adds responsive thumbnails to search result cards.

Remove "Whatsapp Me" button from the Lemon Services page. Also removed "Feedback" button. Reason for removal is i am receiving many whatsapps, calls from scam and solicited unwanted messages, therefore removing this would be better. If a genuine customers wanted to reach out, there's still a contact information and web contact form available.

Updates on Lemon Blog UI. Changes as below.

Added Export Save and Import Save controls beside the fullscreen button, allowing players to download their Diablo single-player save file for backup or transfer it to another browser/device. The import function accepts any .sv filename, automatically maps it to DiabloWeb’s required single_0.sv save slot, confirms the import through a popup modal, and reloads the game after the user presses OK so the restored character is available immediately.

User can also upload their own save game from the diablo game as well, as long as it is the same Diablo version, not the expansion pack HELLFIRE diablo.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City has now been added to the Lemon Web Games library, bringing one of the most iconic open-world classics into a browser-based experience for players to enjoy directly online. Unlike many of the usual Lemon Web Games entries that run through normal HTML, JavaScript, or PHP-based hosting, this release required a different setup using a Python app environment to properly serve and handle the game files. It was a more technical deployment compared to the usual static game uploads, but the result is a smoother and more complete browser-playable version that expands what Lemon Web Games can support beyond standard web game formats.

I have added the 16 Bit Program Executor to the Lemon App library as a practical tool for running old 16-bit EXE and COM programs on modern Windows systems. This app is especially useful for users who need to recover, access, or test legacy software from the Windows 95, 98, and ME era without being stopped by modern 64-bit Windows compatibility limitations.

Updated the Web-TV as per changes below:

Updated the Drug Price Checker system with a cleaner, more user-friendly interface, improved mobile responsiveness, full drug price browsing, Excel download support, and the latest KKM drug price data update.

Changes done today:

The /play/ page has been revised from a simple waiting/interstitial page into a cleaner and more controlled launch page for Lemon Web Games and Lemon Web Apps. The page now presents a proper loading experience, highlights the selected game or app name, shows a dedicated advertisement section, and then enables the user to continue once the preparation process is complete. The wording was also adjusted to avoid making the page feel like users are being forced to view an ad, while still keeping the loading flow, manual ad placement, and navigation buttons intact.

The fullscreen button issue was fixed by replacing the Font Awesome icon with a clean inline SVG icon, preventing unwanted black artifacts from appearing inside the button. The final adjustment also ensures only one fullscreen icon is displayed at a time, switching cleanly between expand and compress states when fullscreen mode changes.

This Final Fantasy X PS2 emulator project is an experimental attempt to run a full PS2 game directly inside the browser using the Play! emulator on Lemon Web Games. The setup involved enabling SharedArrayBuffer through proper COOP and COEP headers, fixing Cloudflare cache issues, creating a full-height game canvas, adding automatic ISO loading from a remote server, designing a custom loading screen, applying a black fullscreen-style background, hiding the manual file upload interface, testing browser-side ISO caching, and adding a Lemon Web Games bottom navigation bar with fullscreen and return controls. Technically, the project works because the game can launch and run in the browser, but the test also shows the current limitation of browser-based PS2 emulation, especially for a heavy game like Final Fantasy X, where FMV playback stutters, gameplay is not fully smooth, save/load state is not easily exposed through the web build, and the browser may eventually crash after extended play. Overall, it is a successful proof of concept, but still better treated as an experimental PS2 browser emulation test rather than a fully polished online play experience.

Future improvements needed for the Final Fantasy X browser-based PS2 emulator project:

During the development of the Audio Converter app, the main goal was to turn a personal workflow into something more useful and accessible for everyday users. The idea started after repeatedly facing limitations with free online audio converters, where many services only allowed one file at a time, restricted certain features, pushed paid upgrades, or added unnecessary friction to a simple task. I initially solved the problem locally using FFmpeg with a batch command to convert multiple OGG files into MP3, which worked well for my own use. However, since not every user is comfortable installing FFmpeg or running command-line scripts, I decided to build a clean web-based version that brings the same practicality into a browser interface.

The app has now evolved into a privacy-friendly browser-based audio converter that supports common formats such as MP3, OGG, WAV, M4A, FLAC, MP2 and AMR. It allows users to convert files directly in the browser without uploading audio to the server, while also supporting single-file and multiple-file conversion modes. I also added advanced options such as quality, bitrate, sample rate, channels, fade in, fade out and reverse audio, but kept them hidden by default so the app remains simple for casual users. This update reflects the direction I want for Lemon Web Apps: practical tools built from real problems, designed to be easy enough for normal users while still offering enough control for those who need more flexibility.

Reducing RAM Spikes on Lemon Web Solutions by Controlling Bot Traffic and Smarter Caching by carrying out the following fixes:
Hope this resolves the issue and will be monitoring the logs closely.

A new menu item has been added to the Lemon Web-Games panel to improve user interaction and support. Visitors can now easily access the Developer Diary to view ongoing development logs, while a separate contact option allows them to request new games or report issues directly. This helps make the Web-Games section more transparent, user-friendly, and easier to maintain based on player feedback.

Revised Lemon Blogs HTML to keep the fullscreen loading overlay active while the page is still loading and prevents users from scrolling during that period. It does this by adding a temporary lw-loading class to both html and body, locking page overflow until the loader finishes. Once the page fully loads, the overlay fades out, is removed from the page, and scrolling is restored automatically.

After reviewing the recent Error 503 issue, the main cause appeared to be related to shared hosting resource pressure, especially CPU spikes and physical memory usage getting close to the 1.5GB limit, rather than a simple missing file or broken website problem. The hosting charts showed that memory and CPU were the main areas affected, while I/O operations and entry processes were less impacted. Since the website has continued to grow with more HTML5 games, tracking scripts, and public counter requests, several clean-up and optimization steps were carried out to reduce unnecessary server load while preparing for a proper hosting upgrade in June 2026. The following fixes were carried out:

As Lemon Web Solutions continues to grow with blog articles, web apps, HTML5 games, emulator pages, and custom online tools, performance maintenance has become just as important as publishing new content. A website may look normal on the surface, but behind the scenes, repeated missing file requests, broken game assets, old paths, and unnecessary error handling can quietly place pressure on the server. This became more noticeable when the hosting resource graph showed physical memory usage climbing close to the shared hosting limit, even though CPU usage was not constantly maxed out. It was a clear reminder that performance problems are not always caused by one obvious heavy page. Sometimes, they come from many small background issues happening together.

The optimization work focused on cleaning up those hidden sources of waste. Missing HTML5 game assets were reviewed and restored where possible, repeated broken paths were handled with lightweight .htaccess rules, incomplete file references were reduced, and unnecessary 404 handling was minimized. This helped make the website cleaner, easier to troubleshoot, and less wasteful with server resources. For a growing site like Lemon Web Solutions, this kind of cleanup is not just about speed. It is about stability, better resource control, and making sure the server spends its effort serving real visitors instead of repeatedly processing broken or outdated requests.

This latest JavaScript update improves the Lemon Web Games homepage experience by adding proper pagination to the Recently Added, Random Picks, Most Played, and Trending Games sections. Instead of showing only a fixed set of games, each section can now display multiple pages while still keeping the layout clean and lightweight. The pagination is capped at a maximum of five pages, which keeps browsing simple without overwhelming visitors. It also automatically adjusts between desktop and mobile views, showing more cards on larger screens and fewer cards on smaller devices for a cleaner responsive layout. The core pagination rule is kept simple, for example:

var MAX_PAGES = 5;

function perPage() {
  return window.matchMedia("(max-width: 768px)").matches ? 4 : 8;
}

function totalPagesFor(key) {
  var total = state[key].data.length;
  return Math.max(1, Math.min(MAX_PAGES, Math.ceil(total / perPage())));
}		  
		  

The update also keeps the game lists better organised by preventing titles from overlapping between the Most Played and Trending Games sections. This means games that are already highlighted as popular will not be repeated again in the trending area, giving other active games a better chance to be discovered. The pagination styling was also refined so the buttons remain clearly visible on light backgrounds, with cleaner page controls and no unnecessary “Page 1 of 5” text. I also tested slide animation for page changes, but removed it in the end because the simpler static transition feels cleaner, faster, and more suitable for a game browsing page. This works well with the existing Lemon Web Games JavaScript structure, which already separates the game grids into sections such as mp-grid, ra-grid, rg-grid, and tg-grid.

Developed new web application - DNS Checker. Prior to recent incident had where there was a global issue for the WebNic Global DNS Registrar was down impacting several hours of downtime on one of my managed DNS services, once the services is up is quite difficult to trace which DNS provider in Malaysia were up. Therefore i developed this simple app specifically catered for Malaysian where it will try to resolve a domain name using the malaysian top DNS providers.

DNS Checker is a simple web-based tool that helps users check DNS records for a domain across selected Malaysian DNS providers, ISP network resolvers, and top global DNS servers. It supports common record types such as A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, PTR, SOA, SRV, TXT, and CAA, making it useful for troubleshooting website access, email configuration, domain verification, Cloudflare setup, and DNS propagation issues. Instead of relying on only one resolver, the tool compares results from multiple DNS servers and displays the returned records, response time, and resolver status in a clean, easy-to-read interface. This makes it especially useful for website owners, IT teams, developers, and anyone who wants a quick way to confirm whether a domain is resolving properly from both Malaysian and global DNS perspectives.

AutoMedExpand is designed with a very simple goal in mind — to make clinical documentation faster without compromising accuracy or compliance. By allowing doctors to type familiar shortforms like TKR or HTN and automatically expanding them into full medical terms, it removes the repetitive burden of typing long phrases over and over again. The beauty of the application lies in how seamlessly it works in the background, integrating with existing Hospital Information Systems without requiring any changes. It respects how clinicians naturally work, while quietly ensuring that the final documentation remains clear, standardised, and aligned with hospital and regulatory expectations.

What makes AutoMedExpand truly appealing is how practical it is in real-world healthcare environments. It doesn’t try to introduce complex workflows or disrupt existing systems — instead, it enhances them. With a centrally managed yet customisable dictionary, hospitals can maintain consistency while still adapting to evolving clinical needs. For doctors, this means less time spent typing and more time focused on patient care. It’s a small change in workflow, but one that delivers meaningful improvements in efficiency, accuracy, and overall user experience.

Small fixes applied to some newly uploaded game when i tested using mobile phones.

Today i randomly test few games, and during my test of Ishar series games, i noticed Ishar 0, Ishar 1 and Ishar 2 are no longer playable due to 404 not found. Turns out, when i was working on Ishar 3 where i have so many versions working on that, i accidentally removed other Ishar games. I have reuploaded the game, and now it is playable.

I’ve just rolled out a new Trending Games (Last 7 Days) feature to Lemon Web Games, giving a much more dynamic view of what players are actually engaging with right now instead of relying on lifetime totals; this works by leveraging the existing logging system where every play is recorded daily, then aggregating the last seven days of logs to calculate both total plays and unique players per game, sorting them to surface genuinely active titles, and exposing the result through a new endpoint that plugs directly into the existing tab system without breaking anything—so the UI stays consistent while the data becomes far more meaningful and timely; here’s the core logic that powers it:

// Loop through last 7 days of logs
for ($i = 0; $i < 7; $i++) {
    $date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-' . $i . ' days'));
    $logFile = $logsDir . '/game_clicks-' . $date . '.log';

    if (!file_exists($logFile)) continue;

    $fh = fopen($logFile, 'r');
    while (($line = fgets($fh)) !== false) {
        $parts = explode(' | ', trim($line), 5);
        if (count($parts) < 3) continue;

        $ip   = trim($parts[1]);
        $game = trim($parts[2]) ?: 'Unknown';

        if (!isset($result[$game])) {
            $result[$game] = ['plays'=>0,'users'=>0,'_ips'=>[]];
        }

        $result[$game]['plays']++;

        $ipHash = substr(hash('sha1', $ip), 0, 12);
        if (!isset($result[$game]['_ips'][$ipHash])) {
            $result[$game]['_ips'][$ipHash] = true;
            $result[$game]['users']++;
        }
    }
    fclose($fh);
}

TV3 streaming went down yet again, causing the familiar frustration of broken playback, dead links, or streams that simply refused to load, and this article shares how I stepped in once more to troubleshoot and fix the issue. It highlights the reality that web-based live streaming is often less stable than users expect, with source changes, playback issues, and technical disruptions happening behind the scenes without warning. Rather than treating it as a one-time setup, the article reflects on how maintaining TV3 streaming has become an ongoing cycle of testing, diagnosing, and repairing whenever the stream breaks. In the end, the important thing is that the stream is working again, even if experience suggests this probably will not be the last time it needs another fix.

Today’s update focused on refining both functionality and visual consistency of the floating search bar to match the Lemon Web Games experience more closely. The UI was redesigned to remove unwanted borders, align sizing and spacing, and adopt a cleaner dark theme with compact controls, while ensuring the input field no longer shows default browser styling. Functionally, the search now behaves consistently across Enter key and button clicks, supports smooth scrolling with proper offset adjustment for the fixed header, and improves navigation accuracy when selecting results. Additionally, usability was enhanced by hiding the floating search bar when reaching the “Back to Applications” section and restoring it when scrolling back up, resulting in a more polished and seamless user experience overall.

We have removed the Malaysian CCTV Traffic Live Feed Camera page from Lemon Web Solutions following a takedown notice from Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia (LLM). The page and all related LLM content have been taken down, and any stored copies associated with the feature have also been deleted. This action was taken in response to LLM’s notice stating that the highway CCTV images were used without permission and requesting immediate removal and written confirmation of compliance.

Effective immediately, the app has been removed, any blog articles related also were removed and any other related publications related to this.

Today I enhanced the Lemon Web Apps page by introducing a new full-width hero section with a video background to create a more modern and visually engaging entry point for the page. The hero now displays the title and description on the left while showcasing four featured applications on the right in a 2×2 layout styled like photographic cards with subtle shadows and slight rotation for a more dynamic presentation. I also redesigned the overlay from a dark layer to a smooth gradient that fades from opaque at the top to fully transparent at the bottom, allowing it to blend cleanly into the white page background. These improvements make the page feel more immersive, highlight key applications immediately, and give the Lemon Web Apps section a more polished and professional visual identity.

Added New Hero Layout for Lemon Blog main page, featuring a full-width video background, a cleaner featured-articles showcase, and a dedicated category selector styled specifically for the hero area. This new layout is designed to appear only on the main Lemon Blog landing page, giving the homepage a stronger visual introduction while keeping paginated or filtered views in their more standard browsing layout.

I reworked the Lemon Blog layout so the hero is no longer rendered inside the left col-md-9 content column and is instead output as a separate detached block that gets moved above the entire row containing both the main component and the right sidebar, which fixes the issue of the right-position module appearing behind the hero. I also kept the hero visible only on the clean /lemon-blog URL with no query string, increased the hero showcase from 3 to 4 articles, made the hero content use the wider 1150px layout, added a separate stylized category selector inside the hero while hiding the original selector whenever the hero is shown, kept the original selector and placement when the hero is hidden, set the hero video to fill the background as requested, and ensured the normal blog grid skips the posts already featured in the hero so the same articles are not repeated immediately below.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 has now been added to the Lemon Web Games library, bringing one of the most beloved classic theme park simulation games to the browser. This version runs using a WebAssembly build based on the OpenRCT2 engine, allowing the game to operate directly in modern web browsers without requiring any installation. Getting it running online required quite a bit of behind-the-scenes work, including compiling the OpenRCT2 source with Emscripten, resolving dependency issues with libraries such as zlib, libzip, and ICU, and packaging everything into a browser-compatible environment. The end result is a fully playable version of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 that retains the original gameplay experience while taking advantage of modern web technology, making it easy for anyone to jump in and start building theme parks instantly.

A big part of the technical challenge came from adapting a desktop-first open source project into something that can run inside the browser. The build process involved using Docker together with Emscripten to compile the OpenRCT2 codebase into WebAssembly, while also fixing a long chain of dependency issues involving ICU, Ogg, Vorbis, SpeexDSP, and libzip. Several build scripts and Dockerfile sections had to be manually corrected because some dependencies were expecting Linux shared libraries, while the WebAssembly toolchain needed static-compatible outputs instead. On top of that, paths for headers, pkg-config discovery, and library linking all had to be adjusted so the final browser build could compile successfully. It was very much a trial-and-error process, but it showed how much work goes into turning a classic PC game into a playable browser experience.

Several improvements were made to the page’s JavaScript to enhance usability and navigation. The search bar behavior was simplified so it is now visible from the top of the page instead of appearing only after reaching a specific section. At the same time, the existing logic that hides the search element near the “Back to Applications” area was preserved to prevent UI overlap. The “scroll to top” function was also revised so it now correctly scrolls to the very top of the page rather than the top of the game library section. In addition, the button now automatically collapses any open accordion panels when returning to the top, ensuring the page resets to a clean state for easier browsing.

Another enhancement involved redesigning how featured game groups are displayed. The three sections — Recently Added, Popular Games, and Random Games — were consolidated into a single tabbed interface to create a cleaner and more compact layout. This allows users to switch between categories without scrolling through multiple sections, while still preserving the original grid layout and card styling used for the games. The implementation keeps the existing section and grid IDs intact so the current JavaScript that loads and renders the game data continues to function without disrupting the design or existing functionality.

As part of ongoing improvements to the Lemon Web emulator-based games platform, the underlying EmulatorJS engine has recently been upgraded to version 4.2.3. This update brings various internal improvements aimed at better stability, compatibility with more game ROMs, and smoother performance across different devices and browsers. Because the emulator files are shared across hundreds of game pages, some returning visitors may temporarily continue loading older cached versions of these files stored in their browser. If you notice that a game is not behaving as expected after this update, clearing your browser cache or opening the page in a private browsing window should ensure the latest EmulatorJS 4.2.3 files are loaded correctly.

Finally completed all games to link with youtube video previews. Close to 500 games and took me several hours to complete all. Spent about 1 hours per day since 27th February. Total 3++ hours spent on this. Result is quite nice. I noticed one game that does not shows the youtube video which is Texas HoldEm Poker. Oddly, Youtube flags this video as an adult videos, but it is just a harmless poker games that does not involve real money. Oh well. It is what it is...

I’ve enhanced Lemon Web Games by integrating YouTube video previews directly into selected game listings, allowing players to instantly see gameplay footage before diving in. When a game is expanded, an embedded preview automatically plays (muted and optimized for both desktop and mobile), giving users a quick visual showcase of mechanics, graphics, and overall experience. The layout is carefully aligned to match the existing image presentation, ensuring a clean and consistent design without disrupting performance or responsiveness. This improvement adds a more dynamic, modern browsing experience while helping players quickly decide which games they want to explore next.

Since my game library is quite huge right now, i am slowly updating one by one to link the videos. Currently, completed at letter "M". Half way there...

I’ve recently introduced Business AI Development as part of my services after noticing a growing number of web development enquiries shifting toward AI-related solutions. More clients are no longer just asking for websites, but for systems that can automate tasks, assist users, and process information intelligently. Instead of treating these as separate projects, I now build them directly into structured AI programs that integrate with existing workflows, helping businesses move beyond static websites into smarter, more functional platforms.

This shift also reflects how expectations around software have changed. A website is no longer just a place to display information — businesses now want it to think, assist, and act. By incorporating AI into development from the start, I can design systems that not only present data but also interpret it, respond to users, and streamline operations. The end result is not just a better website, but a tool that actively supports daily work instead of passively sitting in the background.

I added a new Random Games section to the page and wired it up so it pulls and displays a shuffled set of games in the same card layout used by Popular Games. To keep everything consistent, I also introduced a matching CSS block scoped to #random-games, including the correct #rg-grid target, so the section renders in the same 4-column desktop and 2-column mobile grid with identical spacing, card styling, hover behavior, thumbnail handling, and pill metadata styling.

Prior to this, i also found out many rubbish in my gametracker JSON where it is storing the old invalid chinese characters where last time players that translates this page to mandarin, it is storing that in my JSON. I have fixed it previously forcing no translate for my page, but the garbage still resides in the JSON. With this random game module, it helps me to clean up this garbage alongside with wrong filename for the images.

For my Blog Category module, I refined the layout into a cleaner two-line structure where the category title appears first and the post count sits neatly below it. I also improved the overall presentation by enlarging the category image, reducing the title font size, tightening the card border radius to 5px, adding a slightly darker hover shade for better feedback, ensuring the category image sits inside a white box with a 3px border radius, and removing the underline effect on title hover to keep the design looking consistent and polished.

For my “Fresh Finds” (random blog) module, I reorganized the post preview so the metadata displays in a more logical and less repetitive way. I moved the date and category into a single “Date | Category” row directly below the article title and removed the extra category output that was causing redundancy. I also upgraded the call-to-action by converting “Read More” into a Bootstrap button (btn btn-default btn-success), aligning it to the left, and removing the horizontal divider above it so the footer feels lighter and more modern.

I updated the search behavior so it now gives clear feedback in every “nothing to do” situation: when I press Enter or click the search button, it checks the current query and the suggestion list, then shows a popup modal with the right message. If the input is blank, it prompts me to type a game name; if it’s only one character (too broad), it asks me to enter at least two characters; and if the query is two or more characters but returns zero matches, it shows “No such game in Lemon Games.” This makes the search feel more intentional and avoids those silent moments where nothing happens.

Removed Jet Force Gemini. During my playtest, game was crashing. Cant play. Removed from library.

Added Slow Roads game - requested by Lane Ivy.

Removed Derby Stallion due to Japan language edition.

Removed Yoshi Story due to corrupt data file.

Fixed Legend of Zelda Majora Mask. Revise to use a different updated game engine at /html5emuj2 which uses newer version of EmulatorJS. Tested play and no more crash.

Fixed Nazi Zombies game - game viewport have scroll bar which is not supposed to have. Added overflow hidden. A very small and minor updates.

While checking the browser console, I noticed a jQuery error saying “Syntax error, unrecognized expression: /”, which happened because the Zo2 mega menu script was treating the menu link’s href value as a CSS selector. When a link had href="/" (or any normal URL), the code attempted to run jQuery('/'), which is not a valid selector, causing the click handler to crash. The fix was simple: add a guard so the smooth-scroll animation only runs for in-page anchor links that start with # (for example #about), and let normal links like / navigate as usual. After updating site.scripts.js with this check (and preventing default only for anchors), the console error disappeared and menu behavior became stable again.

A small selector guard like this goes a long way in keeping menu clicks reliable and your site free of annoying front-end breakages.

I decided to remove Yoshi’s Safari from my game archive after testing it and confirming the problem wasn’t my HTML or emulator settings, but the game itself. This title was designed around the SNES Super Scope (light gun), and in my current browser emulator setup it gets stuck at the opening prompt because it expects the light gun’s Turbo input, which a normal keyboard/controller can’t provide. Rather than leaving a broken or confusing experience for visitors, I pulled it from the list until I can either find a controller-compatible patched version or switch to an emulation setup that properly supports Super Scope input.

During my playtest of the games to publish blogs and youtube videos, I ran into a weird but very real problem while testing Hardware Tycoon on my site: the “Company Name” text looked invisible even though the input box was there. At first it felt like a game bug, but it turned out to be a browser styling issue affecting the game’s HTML input field that Construct 2 overlays on top of the canvas. I had recently enabled color-scheme: dark; in my page styling, and that caused Chrome to render the input text in white, which blended badly with the game’s light input background. The fix was simple and immediate: I removed the color-scheme setting completely, and the textbox returned to normal with readable text again.

Game is now fixed.

Today I updated the Diablo HTML loader to fix iOS-specific fullscreen problems that only showed up on iPhone 12 mini. The main change was adding an iOS-only patch that disables fullscreen requests entirely (to stop the game from immediately jumping back into fullscreen, which prevented the touch keyboard from staying open when creating a new player) and continuously removes the green bottom prompt "Tap here to go fullscreen" so it can’t trap the screen. Everything else in your flow was kept the same (autofull redirect logic, boot overlay, R2-first download with local fallback, and the simulated drop injection of DIABDAT.MPQ), and after testing, we reverted away from the experimental caching attempt because it made startup worse on some devices, keeping the stable working version instead. For reference, here is the exact iOS-only snippet that was added:

<style>
  .lw-kill-fullscreen-prompt{
    display:none !important;
    visibility:hidden !important;
    pointer-events:none !important;
    height:0 !important;
    width:0 !important;
    overflow:hidden !important;
    opacity:0 !important;
  }
</style>

    var iOS = /iP(hone|od|ad)/.test(ua);
    var iPadOS = (navigator.platform === 'MacIntel' && navigator.maxTouchPoints > 1);
    return iOS || iPadOS;
  }
  if (!isIOS()) return;

  // Disable fullscreen on iOS to stop auto re-fullscreen (blocks on-screen keyboard).
  function noopResolved(){ return Promise.resolve(); }
  try {
    var EP = Element.prototype;
    if (EP.requestFullscreen) EP.requestFullscreen = noopResolved;
    if (EP.webkitRequestFullscreen) EP.webkitRequestFullscreen = noopResolved;

  } catch(_) {}

  // Kill the green "Tap here to go fullscreen" prompt even if it gets injected later.
  function killGreenPrompt(root){
    var wanted = 'tap here to go fullscreen';
    var scope = root || document;
    var nodes = scope.querySelectorAll('button, a, div, span, p');
    for (var i=0;i<nodes.length;i++){
      var el = nodes[i];
      var t = (el.textContent || '').trim().toLowerCase();
      if (t === wanted){
        try { el.classList.add('lw-kill-fullscreen-prompt'); } catch(_) {}
        try { el.style.display = 'none'; } catch(_) {}
        try { el.remove(); } catch(_) {}
      }
    }
  }

  killGreenPrompt(document);

  var mo = new MutationObserver(function(muts){
    for (var i=0;i<muts.length;i++){
      var m = muts[i];
      if (m.addedNodes && m.addedNodes.length){
        for (var j=0;j<m.addedNodes.length;j++){
          var n = m.addedNodes[j];
          if (n && n.nodeType === 1) killGreenPrompt(n);
        }
      }
    }
  });

  try {
    mo.observe(document.documentElement, { childList:true, subtree:true });
  } catch(_) {}
})();

Let me know how is your game experience in iOS device. I only tested in iPad Mini, iPhone 17, 14 and 12 Mini since I only own these devices. On iPhone 12 Mini, the game really is not enjoyable due to small screen estate, but I leave the game still playable.

Enjoy. I keep on adding game, but i am way behind to write the blog article for these games. Maybe i need to spend sometime to do that and stop adding more and more games.

This update makes Lemon Blog Random Post module adjust itself based on the page type, using separate rules for tag pages and search pages. For /lemon-blog/tags/*, I revised the thresholds so the module now scales progressively starting at 2250px (show 1 item), then increases the visible post count in stepped ranges (2715px = 2, 3180px = 3, and so on) up to a hard cap of 30, all based on the overall #eb height. For /lemon-blog/search/*, I added stricter logic: if the #eb height is below 2715px, the entire module (including the header module title) is fully hidden; once it reaches 2715px and above, it starts showing posts progressively (2715px = 1, 3180px = 2, 3645px = 3, etc.) with a cap of 29. On all other pages, the original height-mapping logic stays unchanged, so Lemon Blog existing behaviour remains intact everywhere else.

Only today i got the chance to test this on my mobile and noticed some issues. Fixed WebGL issue for Mobile and Allow Potrait mode for Rolling Sky.

Added 7 HTML Games as below.
Enjoy. Personally, i like Level Devil so much.

I have tried to rebuild, and still problem.

The crash I am experiencing is caused by a memory allocation overflow where my game engine attempts to request 2,266,804,224 bytes (approximately 2.11 GB), exceeding the hard 2 GB (2,147,483,648 bytes) limit inherent to 32-bit WebAssembly. In my 32-bit environment, memory addresses are signed integers; once my allocation crosses the 2,147,483,647-byte threshold, the pointer value "wraps around" and becomes negative, causing my engine to look at corrupted data and trigger a browser-level rejection of the heap expansion. Despite me setting a 2 GB maximum in my WebAssembly.Memory configuration, my application is still "greedy" for more space than the browser can safely provide, leading to the "Cannot enlarge memory" error.

To resolve this, I must force my engine to operate within a smaller memory footprint by aggressively lowering my texture and cache settings in the PersistentSymbols.ini file. Specifically, reducing tex_iNormalSize, tex_iAnimationSize, and tex_iEffectSize to a value of 1 restricts the size of my loaded assets, while adding explicit caps like tex_iMaxMemSize = 128 prevents my engine from bloating. Additionally, lowering the maximum memory cap in my JavaScript to around 1.8 GB and disabling ALLOW_MEMORY_GROWTH ensures my engine hits its own internal "Out of Memory" handlers—which can trigger resource flushing—rather than hitting the 32-bit integer wall and crashing my entire browser session.

Furthermore, I attempted to bypass the 2 GB wall by increasing the memory limit to 3 GB and 4 GB, but this introduced an entirely different set of critical failures that directly linked back to my previous UTF-8 encoding issues. In a 32-bit WebAssembly environment, the browser and the underlying engine simply cannot address memory beyond the 32-bit integer limit; when the memory address wraps around or points to invalid space, the TextDecoder fails to interpret the resulting corrupted strings. This produces the "The encoded data was not valid for encoding utf-8" error and the appearance of broken characters, proving that I cannot simply "out-allocate" this architectural limitation as the engine's fundamental data handling breaks down entirely once the 2 GB boundary is breached.

Even after implementing these memory constraints and configuration adjustments, I have tried everything and it still fails. If anyone knows how to fix this issue, feel free to share your knowledge to me.

Added Serious Sam Classic Game. This, honestly took me about a whole day doing this. It was major pain to deploy this since i build using martinmullins source. His source got many missing reference. And when finally build demo, that only took me a half day and the other half is trying to load up the actual Serious Sam The First Encounter. Struggle alot.

Game deployed, but far from perfect. Below is the list of playable levels.
Those level failed to launch, error was due to capping of 2GB ram in the assembly. To fix, i may need to rebuild again and that is a very long long long story where i sort of forgot how i got the build working in the first place with many fixes here and there. Anyway, if i am free, i might continue, but not anytime soon. Also i may continue with the Second Encounter of the game since it is basically the same WASM engine, i just didnt upload the levels, data and etc.

This is ALOT and really TIRING updating. Finally completed after several days. Though not all game does have Game Info since the blog article is not yet published. That part requires time where i really need to playtest, upload to youtube, write a blog article and publish it. Sometimes, during my playtesting, that's where i found out the game was not stable, and many more issues and i will do my best to fix the issue. Anyway, gameinfo link from Lemon Web Games completed. Finally...

Updated Final DOOM for both TNT and Plutonia Experiment to use WASD keys instead of arrow keys. While original game actually uses arrow keys with dot and comma to strafe, modern game uses WASD keyws combo with mouse. This was done for other DOOM games published here, so in effort to standardize all i have reconfigure the keys, and reupload new game bundled with the new configuration. Enjoy...

I have blocked Google AdSense from being displayed in my website header by targeting the header area with CSS and hiding only the ad elements that get injected there. This allows ads to still appear in other parts of the page, but anything inside the header (including auto-placed AdSense blocks like .google-auto-placed, ins.adsbygoogle, and related wrappers or iframes) is forced not to render, preventing ads from overlapping my logo, navigation, or top banner. I chose this approach because it keeps the layout stable and clean without disabling AdSense site-wide, so the header remains an “ad-free zone” while the rest of the site can continue monetizing normally.

Slowly updating the linkage for Lemon Web Games with the Blog Game Info. Worked until "G" and to be continued next day... Also updated Lemon Web Games where sometimes the marquee is not working. I updated the marquee script to handle browser back/forward caching by safely restarting the CSS animation (via a temporary class toggle) and reloading the marquee content if it was restored empty on page revisit.

Make minor improvement on the website's UI as below. Not much updates since busy with Life & Work.

While it is pretty to have the intro video for Lemon Blog, i find it distracting and not really relevant as the goal is to have a simplified version of the page to show blog listings. Rework the blog page completely to simplify.

Maybe in the future i might explore how to incorporate back that video somewhere else, for now i prefer to clean look of the page.

When playtesting Zero Divide 1, now only i realize i uploaded wrong game for Zero Divide. Fixed and reupload the correct game. Kinda funny how i wrongly uploaded wrong game.

Fixed Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi as i am using the ripped version of the game to save disk storage, the game sometimes failed to start due to ripped intro movie. Therefore i added a save state to straight away jump to the game menu to skip intro. Solved the problem.

While playtesting both Zombotron 1 & 2, i noticed the game canvas was small centered in the middle of the screen. I may have forgotten to check out and fixed on this previously but now i have. Fixed the small centered game canvas to full height centered game canvas for both games.

Also for Zombotron 2, games runs abit slow even on a high-end pc. Also i cant seem to get to next level 2. Maybe need to check the flash/SWF file if i obtained the correct version or not. In the future maybe....

This ViewPort Detector is a simple, handy web application that instantly shows you exactly how big your browser view really is, in a clean dashboard style that is easy to read on both desktop and mobile. Instead of guessing why a layout breaks, why a button wraps, or why a canvas feels “too small,” you can see your live viewport size, visual viewport, device pixel ratio, screen size, estimated physical pixels, and orientation in one place, updating the moment you resize or rotate your device. It even includes built-in rulers along the top and left edges, making it perfect for front-end testing, responsive design tweaks, and quick sanity checks when you are building pages that must look right across different screens.

Why developed it? Well personally i am working on Cut the Rope 1 previously where i wrote a script to detect my viewport and have a script to redirect user to different build of Cut the Rope 1 for certain viewport size, reason is default is Cut the Rope HD mode, else if not met certain viewport size it will redirect to mobile version that basically supports any viewport. This tool is quite important for developer, though not useful for normal users for atleast for myself.

While playtesting this game Trivia Crack, answer fonts are white color making it invisible.. Fixed the issue and change the font color to black.

While playtesting this game Pokemon Stadium 2, game always freezes after i start new game. Tested with multiple settings with threads off also the same. Tested in CDN version of EmulatorJS and it was working fine. Tested using version 4.2.1 of CDN, and it was failed. Concluded that the issue was with version 4.2.1 as somehow version 4.2.3 fixed whatever issue that causes freezes.

Seems like an issue with version 4.2.1 and i have deployed new build 4.2.3 at /html5emujs2. Moving forward i might need to deploy here instead, but i will retain the old games in 4.2.1 unless i found some issues. Too much work to migrate all games to 4.2.3 and to patch the game data is not easy since this requires all end user to clear cache file. Maybe i need to study how to globally force user side or client side clear cache then i am confident to do mass upgrade for all games. For now, i deployed another instant of EmulatorJS.

While playtesting this game AlQadim, found some minor issue where system does not capture mouse. Forgot that this game does uses a mouse and i need to edit the game to capture mouse. Fixed the issue.

While playtesting this game Geekwad Games of the Galaxy, found some minor issue where system does not capture mouse. Forgot that this game does uses a mouse and i need to edit the game to capture mouse. Fixed the issue.

Game got random crashes when played. Sometimes i can play up to 30 minutes, sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes lesser or more.

Probabbly about 2-3 hours i have spent to try troubleshoot the issue for this game. Game seems unstable and when i play, random crashes throughout the game. I have sourced the internet looking for best dosbox config and can't find any best settings as the game still buggy. Main reason is i can see this game uses it's own DOS4GW protecteed module which causes timing conflict with the DosBox emulator and i honest have tried many CPU cycle timing to ensure good synchronization between the CPU and the memory module but still random crashes.

I’ve rolled out a smart improvement to the Random Posts module that dynamically adjusts how many related articles are shown based on the actual height of the current blog entry. Instead of relying on fixed limits, the module now measures the real content height of each post (including late-loading elements like Google AdSense) and displays an appropriate number of related articles accordingly. This ensures shorter articles don’t feel cluttered while longer reads naturally surface more recommendations, resulting in a more balanced layout, improved readability, and a smoother browsing experience across all blog pages.

Also i renamed 'Random Article' to 'Fresh Finds'. More catchy wording i guess.

Today’s update improves the Lemon Blog experience by making the main heading dynamic and context-aware, automatically adjusting the page title based on the selected blog category. Instead of showing a static “LEMON BLOG” heading everywhere, the page now intelligently reflects whether visitors are browsing App Development, Cybersecurity, Games, Guitar Covers, or any other category, creating clearer context and better visual continuity. The change works seamlessly across desktop and mobile views, preserves the existing responsive layout, and requires no server-side changes, making the blog feel more polished, structured, and easier to navigate for readers exploring different topics.

<script>
(function () {
  const heading = document.getElementById("responsive-heading");
  if (!heading) return;

  const url = window.location.href.toLowerCase();

  const routes = [
    { match: "lemon-blog?cat=application-development", title: "APP DEVELOPMENT" },
    { match: "lemon-blog?cat=cybersecurity", title: "CYBERSECURITY" },
    { match: "lemon-blog?cat=designs-artworks", title: "DESIGN & ARTWORKS" },

    { match: "lemon-blog?cat=news", title: "NEWS" },
    { match: "lemon-blog?cat=personal-blog", title: "PERSONAL BLOG" }
  ];

  let matched = false;

  for (let i = 0; i < routes.length; i++) {
    if (url.indexOf(routes[i].match) !== -1) {
      heading.innerHTML = "<strong>" + routes[i].title + "</strong>";
      matched = true;
      break;
    }
  }

  if (!matched && url.indexOf("lemon-blog") !== -1) {
    heading.innerHTML = "<strong>LEMON BLOG</strong>";
  }
})();
</script>

Not a major update, but a beautification code nevertheless...

As part of this update, the page now automatically disconnects its UI-cleanup observer once the actual game starts running, instead of continuously watching and modifying the launcher interface in the background. Previously, the MutationObserver remained active for the entire session, repeatedly scanning the DOM even after the VCMI launcher had handed control over to the game itself. By stopping the observer as soon as the game canvas appears, unnecessary DOM work is eliminated, reducing long-term CPU and memory overhead during extended play sessions. While this does not change the game engine itself, it helps create a cleaner runtime environment and can improve overall stability, especially during longer Heroes of Might & Magic III sessions in the browser.

Also added a safeguard that restores the original page title whenever the game launches or attempts to override it internally, ensuring consistent branding throughout gameplay.

Added 3 Need for Speed to the Game Library as below:

Updated Lemon Blog main page as per following changes.
Also updated all videos webM and MP4 in Lemon Web Solutions. While updating the blog page, i fetch my IPAD MINI to test out and to my suprise, all of the videos are not autoplay and upon googling this is the norm for IOS devices. Anyway, fixed by implementing some small script as below. Still does not autoplay but atleast whenever user interacts with the website, it will autoplay.

<video id="example"></video>
<script>
(function () {
 var started = false;
 function startVideo() {
  if (started) return;
  started = true;
  var v = document.getElementById("example");
  if (v) {
   v.muted = true;
   v.play().catch(function(){});
  }
  document.removeEventListener("touchstart", startVideo);
  document.removeEventListener("click", startVideo);
 }
 document.addEventListener("touchstart", startVideo, { passive: true });
 document.addEventListener("click", startVideo, { passive: true });
})();
</script>

This is merely a note to myself in the future when uploading video as i tend to forgot for IOS users.

Added 7 HTML5 Games to the library as below:

Added 3 Need for Speed to the Game Library as below:

Deployed House of the Dead 1, tested and the game runs. But slows, ugly with missing textures (depending on settings) and many more issues. Similar to House of Dead 1, part 2 is even worse. I guess Windows Emulation on JS DosBox are still far from perfect. Atleast House of the Dead 1 can still be played, but low framerate.

In the end, decided to remove both games and not going to convert this into sockdrive as i dont think performance will improve much for this game.

Added 2 Windows 95 games as below. Also put a keyboard blocker where i block all keyboard keystroke. Reason, this can create confusion for new players who never played the original where the keyboard was meant for player 2. Virtua Cop 1 plays fine. Virtua Cop 2, is quite slow during playtest. I tested the game bundle at JSDos Studio, and it was running smooth. Weird... I am using latest version. Another weird part is, tested at (https://v8.js-dos.com/studio/) also slow, and when tested at (https://dos.zone/studio-v8/) was okay. I have a feeling the ones at doszone is having a better optimized version of the jsdos. Maybe in the future i might need to inspect why and how.

Added 2 Windows 98 games as below:

Added several Nintendo64 Games to the library. Also apply pthreads for all of Nintendo64 games. The following games are added:

Added several DOS Games to the library. Added some scripts to automate intro section by simulating required keystroke, for example for Predator 2, need to press E to change to Adlib sound system then only starts the game. Same goes for others game where i had to programme for such automation.

The following games are added:

Updated Stonekeep to use full data, includes full game video files and voice. Previously audiotrack and video files were stripped to give faster data load. But users wanted a true game experience may wants the full data to enjoy the cutscene and especially audio voice tracks that were missing previously.

Updated Dungeon Master 2 as well to use my own local copy of the original game. Previously when i play the game online, noticed some bugs and this does not happens when i use my own copy that i have since 90s. Now should be okay.

Introduced a new browser cache management feature that allows users to view how much browser storage is being used specifically by lemon-web.net, helping players better understand and manage their local game data. As the number of games on the platform continues to grow and some titles consume larger amounts of storage, this tool helps prevent unexpected loss of older save data by giving users visibility into their browser cache usage. While cache clearing is currently handled at the site level for simplicity and reliability, this feature lays the foundation for more granular, game-specific cache management in the future.

For now, it only functions to clear current cache for Lemon Web Solutions (www.lemon-web.net) website, but in the future i will be working on having the function to delete cache for specific games. This give controls to users to delete cache for games that they are no longer playing to have higher cache allocation for other games and to avoid loosing their save games if the browser decided to clear cache unknowingly.

Also need to work on getting cache files from CDN since this only take game data files that are hosted here, as some of the games files were hosted in our CDN.

Awhile back i did deployed Unreal 1 Gold Edition using the same Web Assembly used in Unreal Tournament 99. While the web assembly is very much playable for Unreal Tournament, for Unreal 1 is a complete different result. Game are buggy, buttons are unpushable or unsable, textures are not rendered properly and many more issues. But the game runs smooth with high frame rate.

Then i tried another solutions using jsdos running Windows 95 and Windows 98, both yield same result. Poor performance. Game is playable, no bugs. But the framerate, i am getting around 10fps to 30fps. Most of the time is 10fps or lower while certain areas i might get higher framerates. Game is playable, but not enjoyable. I did try settings to use 3dfx wrapper (jsdos v8 does supports this as they provide glide wrapper), opengl, software rendering, all yields almost the same result. Poor performance.

For now, let's wait and see if any developer willing to work and complete the icculus WASM of the Unreal to fully complete the game DLLs for Unreal 1. Defintely not me as i am no expert in this assembly and even if i am, this will take a huge amount of time.

I did experiment with deploying SimCity 3000 using a sockified Windows 98 build, hoping it would finally deliver a stable web-based experience. Unfortunately, the simulation performance was already extremely slow right from the start, even before building a single zone or structure. Basic interactions felt sluggish, and the game speed never reached a playable state, making it clear this wasn’t just a late-game scaling issue. After multiple tests and comparisons with other Windows titles that run far better under the same setup, I ultimately decided to remove SimCity 3000 from the web lineup, as current browser-based emulation simply can’t provide the level of performance the game requires.

Maybe in the future when the jsdos v8 has evolved better in their web assembly or higher processing power in the future, but for now i remove this game.

Lemon Web has fully migrated its Windows 3.11, Windows 95, and Windows 98 games to a new sockdrive-based js-dos system, finally fixing the long-standing issue where in-game saves were unreliable or lost. With this change, classic Windows games can now save progress properly, allowing players to close the browser and return later without losing their game. The update removes one of the most frustrating limitations of browser-based Windows emulation and brings the experience much closer to playing these games on a real retro PC.

The following games are updated:

Now users can enjoy games here where they can save their game progress ingame. I will start to upload more classic Windows games.

While reviewing the DOS games section, I ran into issues where some titles failed to load background music or internal assets, and it quickly became clear that this was not a problem with js-dos itself but a server-side access rule issue. The cause was very similar to a previous problem I encountered with EmulatorJS games, where an overly strict .htaccess redirect was unintentionally intercepting file requests made by the games and returning redirects instead of the actual files. After refining the rules so that only real game directories are restricted—while allowing individual files to be fetched normally—the affected DOS games are now able to load their required assets correctly, restoring proper audio playback and overall gameplay behavior.

Reminder to myself, have to really test out other games from time to time especially whenever i carry out some changes on security.

I recently started testing a few games for Sega Saturn and NeoGeo and immediately ran into loading errors, which led me to investigate what was actually happening behind the scenes; after some digging, I discovered the issue wasn’t with the emulator or the game files themselves, but with an over-broad .htaccess rewrite rule that was unintentionally redirecting essential BIOS files like saturn_bios.bin with a 302 response, causing the emulators to fail silently—once I refined the rule to apply only to real game directories and not standalone files, the BIOS loaded correctly and the Saturn and NeoGeo titles began running as expected.

Reminder to myself, have to really test out other games from time to time especially whenever i carry out some changes on security.

After multiple attempts to stabilise TV3 on Lemon Web TV, the real issue was traced back to an unreliable streaming source. By switching to a new source and monitoring it over two days, TV3 streaming is now stable, consistent across devices, and delivers proper HD quality, making this fourth revision the most reliable fix so far.

Now the TV3 Streaming seems stable and have monitored since yesterday and i can conclude looks okay for now.

I also have published an article in the blog for this as below.

Previous web assembly of DOOM 3 was compiled using shareware version of DOOM 3. I have rebuild again using D3WASM source code, and spent hours updating the CMakeList, pre & post chunked file, repackage the game data files to use the full version. Tested locally and running fine. Now uploaded to Lemon Web Games and tested in browser using my desktop and my Surface Pro, both work fine. Didn't play far enough to validate, but atleast reach to Level 3 or 4 i think after fought several imps.

I re-attempt to recompile again in my local server environment for Doom 3 Ressurection of Evil (ROE), but fail. Game runs, can reach ingame menu, but then when starting new level, i got error "Function 'map_erebus1::main' not found ...". This actually tells me the source code might not have that function exists, and when i checked, yup there is none. I am using D3WASM from Gabrielcuvillier (https://github.com/gabrielcuvillier/d3wasm).

Now i have downloaded the source from origin D3WASM and found the original source code does have \d3wasm\neo\d3xp, but was removed by his version. I guess he is only working on DOOM 3 only. To get DOOM 3 ROE, well that is a lot of work to add those files, check all the CPP files to expand, and revise the CMAKE. If i got the time, i might do this one day. For now, enjoy the normal DOOM 3.

Finally, i give up. To get it working on mobile is impossible on the current build of the web assembly. Managed to find another non-hd version webassembly.

Deployed another instant of Cut the Rope 1, but for mobile version. Wrote simple script if detects mobile, redirects to that mobile version instead. Finally, i can give it a rest and enjoy this game. Honestly the reason why i spent so much time on this was, way back in 5 years ago, this was my favourite game and i purchased it through Microsoft Store. Played in my old Surface Pro 6 and enjoyed it. Sadly, i think they have removed the game from the Playstore and i do not know why they did that. Anyway, now i will be enjoying this game from here instead.

Added Cut the Rope 2.

This took me long time to deploy due to one reason. Combination of server's Litespeed and Cloudflare causes me headache. Whenever the server handles GZIP and BROTLI compression, Litespeed actually decompress first and modifying the host header as "Transfer-Encoding: chunked ". Manually create Cloudflare Response Header custom rule where first, remove response header "Content-Encoding" then set static host header "Content-Encoding" with value "gzip" and another one is "Content-Encoding".

I updated my OneXGPU Panel to support the new Intel Graphics Software and revised AMD paths, while separating Playnite into Intel and eGPU versions to avoid database conflicts. The panel now safely automates eGPU connect and disconnect by managing processes, storage, GPU state, and launcher shortcuts end to end.

Not a major update, but atleast something..

Added Cut the Rope 1.

Tested working fine. However, i tried playing from mobile, stuck at 99% loading. May need to test further on mobile. For now i leave it playable on the website first.

Rework completely to simplify the Mobile Navigation Menu. Previously, the menu is showing all items, now i simplified it to show Top Level Parent items only. I also rework on the design massively by changing the overall design from light theme to dark theme. Completely rework on the slide in and slide right animation, with slight delay for 200 miliseconds to wait scrolling top top then only expand the navigation menu. Added breadcrumbs. While breadcrumbs is not necessary, but i feel sometimes visitor might need a reference where they are right now in a website, especially for mobile users. This should helps them.

Design into 4 cards style menu, Home, Services, Applications and Blog. No more long cluttered menu item. This also help higher traffic for other pages as some users directly go to certain pages bypassing the top level pages.

Looks simple, but took me 5 hours for this redesign and rework.

Starting today, I will start to keep track on my development activities carried out for all Lemon Web services. I will start to track in 2026 onwards. This helps myself to track my own progress and also to our visitors as well.

Over the years, there are many changes that are untracked. It really ticks me few days back where i remembered, "Hey, i used to developed this previously but i have forgotten what or how i did it". I will not enter from A to Z how i did it, but some keywords that will triggers my brain to recall back how i did it rather than head scratching session for few minutes, then suddenly remembers, "ahhh i did it like this..."

Previously i have added Half Life Opposing Force & Blue Shift in the library. During my play test, these games are so buggy and unplayable at many levels. I have decided rather than fixing the issue one by one, let's just remove it completely from the library.

Actual game data still sits in the server, but maybe if i got time i will revisit this. Blueshift looks almost playable with minor bugs. But Opposing Force is defintely no-go. Reason being is Opposing Force uses custom DLL and the engine build does not compiled together with the additional DLL. To review the source code and compile myself, well this takes huge time to study and do and the possibility of not success is there as well. Well, let's drop it completely. Maybe.. Blueshift i might give it a go in the future.

Revise LemonWeb Application page to redesign the UI elements. Contents are more or less the same. Most of the changes are mostly cosmetic.

Using source from icculus.org web assembly and game data from internet archive, have successfully build new Unreal Tournament 99. However, original source has many issues where games are not saved, mouse cursor grab issues. All issues has been fixed and should be playable.

Spent many hours to make the game save-able, and also the annoyed mouse clipping issue. Atleast now is resolved, but if it's happen during your gameplay, just move the mouse in anti clockwise from bottom left, bottom right, top right, top left, bottom left and continue this till the game canvas restored.

Added the following games.

Build and deployed Jazz Jackrabbit 2. Added official full version from Internet Archive repository. However, default game build is running shareware, therefore added script on first load, refreshes in 500miliseconds to full version as I injected it to the user's IndexedDB data.

Update Half Life 1 game to be more stable by using different web assembly and rebuild new. This version has better stability as previous too many bugs. Also updated to have save game feature as it will save in browser's indexedDB state.

This version is using completely different source. Previously, i am using Xash3d latest build. It was buggy and unstable. Most obvious one was the intro section right after boarding the tram, the guard never opens the door. Then i had to write a game argument that straight away skips this section. Then next bug was unable to push the trolley thingy to the center during the initial phase. In the end, i end up creating multiple saves point so that users can skip and load the game at certain check points of the levels.

Recently, i stumbled across a different source of Half Life 1 Web Assembly, and this one works fine. Played through several levels, and seems stable. Only downside is the sound stuttering that quite annoys me to be honest, but atleast playable. I also revise the code now to save the game state in browser's cache IndexedDB. So can always continue off your gameplay.

Small update. I find it annoying of the 5 seconds wait for the loading which is purely cosmetic or maybe other developers try to capitalize that moment to insert ads maybe. Either way, reviewed the lengthy html code and revise that section to skip that waiting.

Not a major update, but atleast 5 seconds saved...
