SC Controller driver and UI version 0.4.5 is out, last release for a while

Quoting: tmtvlYeah, the CoC literally says maintainers can, quote, 'ban temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.' As well as: 'Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.'

I can see how some people might disagree with a text that basically gives maintainers carte blanche to ban whomever they want at any time.
And you think this has changed? Like, they were forced to work with whomever, whatever (s)he did, before publishing this text?

Quoting: XicronicFrom Coraline Ada Ehmke (writer of the CoC):

"Some people are saying that the Contributor Covenant is a political document, and they’re right."

If the author of the CoC admitting it is a political document made to out people she doesn't like doesn't convince you, I don't know what will. Maybe look at Opal and Ruby as examples?

For the records...

Quoting: rkfgIf you don't examine the items the game loads just fine.
This did not help me...

Quoting: beerI reported the issue to Feral. I managed to get past the crash by turning all the games settings down to minimum and putting it into windowed mode instead of full-screen.
... this did.

Quoting: gabberSadly I can fully understand him. Sure this CoC sound fine. There will be amendments.
If it is fine, it is fine. If something would be added that's not fine, it would be not fine - than, not now, obviously.

What Subset Games (FTL, Into the Breach) think of Valve's Steam Play

Quoting: CheesenessSome interesting thoughts here, people. Thanks for the kind words. I had hoped to write a little summary for GOL readers as I usually do, but unfortunately, I've been absolutely swamped (with working on games that support Linux directly, for whatever that's worth ^_^).
That's worth much to me. (Just by the way and totally unrelated, how I would love to have another insult duel game next to Before the Storm...)

Aspyr Media have announced a Layers of Fear and Observer bundle making them cheaper together

Quoting: HadBabitsCurious about Observer, but I wasn't impressed with Layers of Fear. The "Turn around and something's happened" thing gets old after a couple hours :B
I found it quite refreshing and even playing with such expectations. When you look into the windows, see something disturbing behind you, turn around and...
Spoiler, click me
it's actually there!
Or when you step into the elevator, press the button, and...
Spoiler, click me
it just takes you where you wanted to go!

I totally recommend both games.

I'm afraid this game is not supported on SteamOS.
That's a surprise to me, too. But then, Feral is very supportive on non-supported distributions as well.

You should have a save file ready, just in case. ;)
