Game store itch releases a brand new client, plus a small interview

Ah, I just noticed that the Itch front page is showing me Windows-only games again. Didn't the old client filter by what OS you were running the client in, unless told otherwise? Now I get to look at all this stuff I can't play natively.

Holy crap, I install and after entering my email and pass I have to go through FOUR captchas. That's a bit excessive.

Actually I went through seven because I had a typo when I entered my email. So three captchas the first time and four the next. I would say one is unnecessary and two is too much. This many is ridiculous.

Basically I see Itch as Bandcamp, but for games. Love the fact that small projects and developers have a place to go without having to deal with the sort of hoops the big stores need to put in place.

I see they've been working a lot on discoverability, which is really key for a service like this. Stuff like capsule should help, and I'll be interested to see what else they add in that vein in the future.

Still playing a bunch of oldschool (WotLK) WoW on a private server via Wine, plus a bit of Avernum 4 via Proton on the side. Starting to get the itch to take another run at Pillars of Eternity though, so I may switch over once I get it re-installed.

The art reminds me a lot of Tiny Bang Story, I wonder if the artist from that is involved.

Huh. And I was looking at AER in the GoG sale, but this is even better.

Is Torment any good if I didn't play the first game (and probably won't)?

I've got an odd craving to take another shot at Avernum 5, but I don't really want to screw with beta stuff with Proton. Maybe once it's got a full, stable release but not right now.

Oh, I see Hyperduck did the audio. They did the soundtrack to Dust: An Elysian Tail back in the day, and it's quite good.

Samsai did it on stream. It's a matter of try, try, try and if you die, try again.
Wait until you see Mettaton. That was about the most epic ragequit I've ever seen.

The classic one with all DLCs and high res texture pack.
I recommend the enhanced towns and audio ambiance packs from the workshop, they really make the place feel more lived in.
