Maybe Tomb Raider, but I still got much to play. And I resolved to not build a big stack again.

XCom 2 awaits it's first completion, and I wonder how long will Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Divinity: Original Sin will take. Didn't even start them yet...

So many Linux games, so little time!

Quoting: WorMzyFor the record, I have tried a couple of VR demos (not including "cardboard" ), and I share the same opinion as Mountain Man. It's an interesting experience, and very immersive, but it isn't something I would pay X hundred pounds for, and I can't see that many games a) supporting it, or b) being particularly enjoyable while using it for more than say 20 minutes.

I found Occulus as well as Playstation VR so incredibly immersive that I cannot imagine that not becoming a big thing. Sure, many types of games won't do well with it, sure, there are teething troubles, sure, it costs loads of money at the moment, but it's just to great not to become true.

Quoting: Mountain ManI'm still of the opinion that this whole VR craze is going to be another short-lived novelty like 3D televisions and motion controls (other than the Nintendo Wii) once people realize that it doesn't meaningfully enhance their gaming experience. Professional applications, yes, but entertainment? I don't see it.

I'm still to hear this opinion by someone who tried a real VR device. Did you?

This sounds and especially looks interesting, I've put it on my (growing...) whishlist.

The game is considered a tribute to the MSX computer systems - which was my first (and second!) computer system when I was young. I got it from Humble Indie Bundle 14 [External Link], and I really should take a second look on it...!

These have been my first computers (text in German):

Quoting: Farmboy0I have been going for the size optimization challenges. Mostly this gets you the steps optimization challenge too but not always or I haven't looked hard enough.

For many of the more complex puzzles, you can do either speed or steps in one program.
But you can start the next program (there are tabs for thee programs in the upper right) and do the other challenge as well.

Quoting: Farmboy0I played some Human Resource Machine but the puzzles are simply not challenging. Still an enjoyable game.

I found some optimization puzzles to be challenging.
Btw, they said that all speed optimization challenges except the obvious case are solvable without loop unrolling:

Didn't suceed without for all of them, though.

I've solved the last two optimization puzzles in Human Ressource Machine - yeah!
Finally got the hardest puzzle, program size of prime factorisation...

And I played a few more hours of Deponia Dommsday.

Did not buy Lara yet, still too much on the stack.

Quoting: liamdaweAlso a good idea I can quite easily do for stuff that wont change often.

That wouldn't require a login, so easier for reddit and other folks.
