I fired this up recently on the Deck and have been using the sticks, I'll have to give it a go on the pads tonight. Absolutely loving the game so far though!

KDE Plasma 6.5 gains an OEM ready system setup tool and KDE Linux is progressing

I guess KDE Linux is a replacement for Neon?
yeah seems like it. And thus Arch continues on its path of domination.

Bottles devs give more info on their funding from NLnet

Do you all use bottles for anything? I've heard about it for years but I guess just never had a reason to use it. For game launchers and stuff I just use steam "add a game" functionality like Liam has outlined here before. (or try to avoid those games entirely lol)

And other than that I guess I just don't have a need for windows-only software. Everything I use is either linux native or I do productivity stuff on my macbook.

Deep Dish Dungeon looks like a great co-op dungeon crawler

Definitely looks cool, wishlisted, thank you Liam!

I think I have you to blame for my ridiculous wishlist size hahaha. So many good ones!

@eduardo - whoa, I didn't even catch that. 120 hrs for a METROIDVANIA ... ?!?!?!?! that's insane. My buddy and I go back and play Castlevania SOTN pretty regularly (every few years), which I consider probably the best game ever made in the genre, and even then I do tire of it a bit near the end, and am ready to move on. And it's SUPER short compared to this announcement. Whoa.

I think I had truly forgotten about this game as well! It still looks great, so will look forward to a demo.

WHOA.

I never thought it would exist. I thought they made enough cash on the first one they could live their lives forever and just not be worried by the stress and insanity the follow up would create, but here I stand corrected!

Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes announced and has me terribly excited
20 Aug 2025 at 2:54 pm UTC

Damn damn damn damn damn. This game looks so awesome! But then I see the worst word in all of gaming "rogue" and it's an instant no. Damn.

I can't wait to fire that massive cannon in PVKK: Planetenverteidigungskanonenkommandant

definitely excited for this one! Dome Keeper was so good. The later updates were pretty bad (that added character what on earth were they thinking omg) but the core game was fantastic.

Will it live up to expectations? I don't know man, this is an insane amount of hype. I would NOT want to be in their shoes, but I wish them the best! My buddy and I loved Hollow Knight 1, but I feel like that was so long ago I can barely even remember it haha
