Open-world action adventure 'Pine' where humans are not top of the food chain is now available

Quoting: SalvatosInteresting to see so many people giving this a pass just because it has a specific main character. Maybe I’m too used to point-and-clicks and other games where this is customary, but do those people also miss out on the likes of Zelda, Metroid or Tomb Raider for the same reason?
From the hour-ish I watched yesterday, it seems less like a "specific" main character so much as an "everyman" one. Hue seems to have a lot less of what set Link apart as a lead, in terms of design and the rest. His early story could easily have been anyone's, so being able to customize would work just fine with what they have.

You don't win over publishers by not buying games.
Did 505 actually make the decision to pull the plug on Bloodstained, or was that the dev, ArtPlay? Seems a bit odd that the publisher would make that call.

Several publishers have a mix of Linux and Windows-only games in their stable, but I'm not sure where 505 stands.

Very much interested in this. And even more interested if they port Samarost 3 to the same engine.

Clearly still needs work, but that character selection stuff really grabs me.

Quoting: psyminSwords of Ditto is a fantastic local co-op game. Definitely worth the price.
Oh, I thought it was single player. That makes me less interested.

Any word on how much longer this is expected to stay in Early Access? The Steam page suggested the dev was originally planning two months, but that was back in June.

Hm, only thing that really interests me this time around is Sword of Ditto, so it's smarter to pass.

Valve are expanding Steam Remote Play with defaults for popular games and a new API

On second thought, I just tried it out and it runs INCREDIBLY slow over my connection. So that's a thing that won't be happening.

My laptop is pretty…pants


Even too "pants" (had to look up this one :) ) to act as a client for the streaming?
I tried it a couple times, didn't end well on the craptop. My phone is waaay more powerful heh, such is the way with tech.

Edit: I should have mentioned that sitting back with a phone/tablet, especially when ill, is far nicer than a laptop sat on your lap (IMO).
Really wish I knew more about this when I was laid up after surgery last year. I would have played SO much Stardew.
