A simple matter of checking a box in Unreal Engine?
It can be, if any of the middleware they're using isn't tied to Windows. At least I don't see any warnings about unsupported built-in features in the docs any more.

The puzzles in the earlier games/episodes are inventive and the overall design is on point. Looking forward to the next one.

This has been on my wishlist since your first article a year ago. No need to try the demo.

@robvv @tuubi You can actually run the firmware update via Wine: https://gist.github.com/archeYR/d687de5e484ce7b45d6a94415a04f3dc [External Link] [External Link]

I couldn't get the 8BitDo software to recognise the Ultimate 2C Wireless controller via USB, though. This is necessary to be able to update firmware etc. If anyone has any tips, they would be welcome
I haven't been able to make this work on Linux. Granted, I haven't tried very hard.

It's a shame 8BitDo stopped providing firmware updates via fwupd.

I haven't played any Windows games in a while, but I launched one in Lutris just to check: NTSync works fine with latest GE-Proton from UMU, as long as the kernel module is loaded.

Hey, I'm here too.

@Liam Dawe
We have that on our steam tracker page.
Not quite.

I was looking for grouping at the distro level. You bundle all Ubuntu derivatives, including Mint, into one big group, even though they're distinct distributions. Might as well throw Ubuntu into Debian based while you're at it. :wink:

Just kidding. I guess your grouping makes sense, even if it bundles more than I'd like.

I know this data is collected with developers in mind, but I think grouping all release versions of a single distribution would be more interesting to gamers. So we'd only have one Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint etc. Or one for each CPU architecture, I suppose. That would make the changes and percentages more meaningful next to rolling release distros.

This has been easy to miss if you've been upgrading from an older Mint install.
