I'm a Linux gamer from Finland. I like reading, long walks on the beach, dying repeatedly in roguelikes and ripping and tearing in FPS games. I also sometimes write code and sometimes that includes hobbyist game development.

It's almost New Year's but before we start recklessly using explosives for our own amusement we still have one Friday Livestream to go. And today we have a special guest who you are all very familiar with: our own Liam. Yes, I am lonely.

Friday Livestream has been recaptured and will transmit from Finland at 6 PM UTC!

By Samsai,
The day we (or is it just me?) have long been waiting for is here! I have finally been released back into the civilian life from my 6 month vacation in the Finnish Defence Forces and I am back to bring the hurt to the demons, insurgents and everything else the games classify as targets. So, strap yourself in and point your browsers to our Twitch channel for some live Linux gaming!

Another livestream? Well, yes! Come watch at 6 PM UTC today!

By Samsai,
Surprise! As I mentioned on the Friday livestream yesterday, I decided to get back into the livestream game this weekend. So, strap yourself in and prepare yourself for your next dose of live Linux gaming!

Surprise, another livestream happening today at 6 PM UTC!

By Samsai,

Suddenly a wild Friday Livestream appears at 5:30 PM UTC!

By Samsai,
They say a lightning doesn't strike twice, but the weekly livestream certainly does! Liam did a livestream yesterday but I will put together another one just for the hell of it, so strap yourself in for some live Linux gaming!

He's back, he's also a bit sick and he's hosting the Friday Livestream at 7.45 PM UTC!

By Samsai,
Surprise, I'm finally back! As some of you might know, I have been sitting in the Finnish Defence Forces the past 3-ish weeks but I have now returned for a weekend to reclaim the Friday Livestream, mainly because Liam tactically got sick this evening and someone has to run the show. So, sit tight and buckle up for some live Linux gaming!

So I Played… RymdResa

By Samsai,

Behold, Friday has arrived and there will be a stream at 5 PM UTC!

So I played… Automata Empire

By Samsai,
Some weeks back a game by the name of Automata Empire was recommended to me and I happened to find it on a Friday before the weekly stream. So, here are my thoughts on the game.
