Quoting: ExpalphalogUndertale. I am enjoying the cutesy story and the cheesy humor but I hate bullet hell games so the 'combat' is a chore.
That's what made me give up on the game. Watching Samsai play some of the later battles, clever as they are, convinced me that was the right idea.

As for me, still working my way through the Room series of puzzle games. I got Old Sins recently, but I want to re-play the original trilogy before I get into that.

Oh, I remember the demo for this ages ago. It looked really fun, and I always wondered whatever happened to it.

Snap! The new Minecraft launcher now has another easy way to be installed on Linux
24 Jul 2018 at 12:45 pm UTC

I get that flatpaks and snaps are easy to install, but what's never been clear to me is are they as easy to update as PPAs for instance? Or do I have to go to every single piece of software I use and keep them updated manually and individually?

The Humble DRM-Freedom Sale is live, plenty of Linux titles available

Quoting: Patola
Quoting: KelsOddly, it lists Evoland 2 as a Linux game when it isn't.The devs promised it around the time of launch and never delivered.
Maybe it is the port, it just wasn't announced? Has anyone bought it and verified it can natively install on Linux?
I redeemed the Steam key, and was told it was not available for my system. It was part of a bundle I got for something else, so no real loss.

Interestingly, it's also listed on Wikipedia as being for Linux. Presumably thanks to promises by the dev that were later broken.

The visual style of this looks a bit different from the Artifex Mundi games I've played. It reminds me a lot of Tiny Bang Story, which I loved.

Cute survival game 'MewnBase' has a refreshed UI and Thunder Storms

Mewn Base is a wonderful game. I can't wait to see where it goes.

The dev made a cute little PICO-8 breakout game [External Link] on the side too.

Survival horror 'Prototype Mansion - Used No Cover' sounds like an amusing retro throwback

There's a lot of the original Resident Evil in this. I think a friend of mine might like it.

You mention that the writing is top-notch, and the plot is amazing. But you don't seem to say much of anything about what the plot is actually about. Lots of superlatives about it, but that's all. It feels a little like being told about wonderful graphics but not being shown any screenshots.
