Plenty of games do that already it seems like. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago Why don't you just allow peggle to make calls, yo? Don't you trust the magic horse to also talk to your friends, family and coworkers about the bad sides of peggle, like sometimes you lose? What are you hiding behind the privilege to exclusively make calls for yourself? permalink fedilink source parent [โ] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 2 points 1 month ago (2 children) Because its still the active screen when the call comes in. This let the game pause and the ringer take audio over.
