Quoting: shygybeatshey there, a big fan of programming/assembly games, (beaten all of the zachtronics games), ,and would really love a copy of this game! times are tough right now so unfortanately i probably wont be able to purchase this game myself, but the aesthetic, sound design, and everything i have seen about it makes it look like a pretty impactful experience!
It took quite some time until someone wanted it. :)
I'll PM you, have fun!

Free Game Tuesday - get 100% off on Nubarron, an adventure of an unlucky gnome

Quoting: gojulThe game is very cute, but also incredibly frustrating. I've let it down after two hours... (If it were advertised as frustrating like Cuphead or Super Meat Boy are it would make me laugh but it is not the case)
Thanks for the warning, I'll give it a pass then!

Quoting: Nanobang"FREE'S FREE!!" has long been my call to action, but it's also left me with games that, if I'm honest, I'm never going to play. This would be one of those games. I'm never going to play this. If I try, I'll die, over and over again ... and again (and again) ad absurdum. It looks like a good little game, just ... for other people.
Yes.
I find it always hard to resist, though. :D

Quoting: FredOExcellent news that GOL now has a Valve Index - a huge donation for sure. I've been finding it hard to get an overview of the current status of VR on Linux and have held of getting any kit for that reason, so maybe you can now bring some clarity to the topic...?
Liam is too busy with Alyx. ;)

Finally, we also now have a Valve Index so we can do VR content, livestreams and more with it on Linux! Huge thank you to contributor Scaine for the donation.
Now that's wild and crazy...! :heart:

Quoting: GeoGalvanicI'm genuinely surprised by the number of people that continue to only have one monitor. Jump from 2 to 4 felt really nice, but the going from 1 to 2 is absolutely game changing.
For work, yes, it's good (though in home office, I do live without), for private use, I don't need it. When I bought a new monitor (long ago), I was excited about the possibility. I removed the second one sooner or later, as it just wasn't used. It is still sitting under the table. And in gaming, I don't want to see anything but the game.

Backed this one.

Quoting: WorMzyIt's kinda redundant to ask for CPU model AND core count. The latter can be extrapolated from the former. Core counts are a pretty useless metric anyway, especially when it comes to a gaming context.
I consider a huge list of CPU model names useless.
(And it seems Liam found that, too, as it's not even shown in the statistics?)

Quoting: doomwarriorxI wish the statistics would include cpu core count
How could we miss this?!?
