Started Lucy Dreaming. It features rather small items (bathroom!) to be played on Steam Deck, though...

Quoting: TermyInteresting - apparently, i've got the Delta fan?! I'm either lucky with the fan or too old to hear that high pitched whine it seems :grin:
Ain't it a blessing sometimes...? ;)

Quoting: EikeI wonder if this is about some disabled person, because of the heart melting...
(I could see a disabled relative having use for such a setup.)
Nah, I'm not related.
I fear I got a language barrier here, I'm not sure what "I'm not related" means in this case.

To make my last quoted phrase clear though: I have got a relative, the father of my wife, who could need a similar setup as well, as he cannot move one of his hands and thus cannot hold a gamepad easily.

Quoting: termusJust very appreciative of a device that makes my life easier and wanted to let Siri know. I came across this article linked on the Steam Deck subreddit and was completely surprised to see my photo on here.
Cool! Happy gaming!

My biggest indicator of success came when I got an email from a customer who was using their Deckmate system to allow them to mount their Deck to their leg.
He's creating cyborgs! :grin:

You can see the person in the picture.
Ah! Didn't catch the problem when looking at the picture.

Quoting: EikeLooking at the extremities used, they might better have called it handball. :D
Only if you're willing to accept the absurd notion that a "ball" doesn't have to be at least approximately round. Also, handball [External Link] is taken.
You mean, totally unlike "football"?!? :D

I've been at a handball match with 10.000 spectators two weeks ago (Berlin vs Kiel). :)

Absolutely a big YES to that. Sensible Soccer is the only football game i even realy played(yes, it is actually Football, and that ball carrying game is something else) :tongue:

Fab looking western adventure Rosewater gets a big demo update with voice actors

Quoting: tuubiI'll skip the demo. Grundislav's past work is enough to guarantee a place on my wishlist.
Same her.

Although... if the demo is not part of the full game, I'd play it. Anybody knows?

Lucy Dreaming is a quality point and click adventure with great British humour

So I got four of four of my backed games delivered for Linux (plus two not yet released at all). :)

I find it makes a big difference when a game has a demo, and it absolutely should be mentioned in the article.

So, here you go: The game has got a Linux demo!
