what a coincidence I've had it in my library for a while but finally sat down and started playing last night. Lots of fun!

good lord Cyberdogs! Completely forgot about it, I used to play this as a kid. What a nostalgia trip.

Epic science fantasy roguelike Caves of Qud adds new game modes with checkpoints

Agree with the posters above, this is a good change. I've spent a lot of time with Caves of Qud and I pretty consistently die when I get to the goatmen with guns (if not before). I will enjoy getting to see more of the story and world.

Grab a coffee for the Sunday Section and tell us what you've been playing

I've been powering through Death Stranding - I absolutely love it! The crazy over-the-top plot, the ultra-satisfying core gameplay loop of delivering packages, the steady progression as you see the world around you improve, the incredible acting by the A-list cast. Having a ton of fun with it.

Also in the run-up to Humankind getting released Amplitude has released a small DLC for Endless Legend, so I picked that up as an excuse to revisit my favourite 4X.

Loved this game! Played it right through in one sitting when I got it with the Humble Bundle. I'm surprised and saddened they're shutting down; I wonder why they weren't able to produce much besides Rochard.

Remembering an indie gem with Osmos over 10 years later

The rise of linux gaming coincided with my return to gaming (for obvious reasons as a linux-only computer user). HIB was such an incredible revelation for me... I remember loving the sountrack for Osmos, and I (re)bought it a couple years ago for Android. Happy to say as a game holds up just fine and I can recommend it for the audio alone.
