Star-Twine looks good to me. I put it on my wishlist to buy once the Linux version is released..

It's hard to take this seriously when the narrator misprounces the title of "Nadir" muliple times... :( (I mean its their game, so they can pronounce the mythical city in it how they'd like, but its obviously based on our word nadir, so it would be much less jarring if the narrator would just use a common pronunciation)

Go Collabora! This seems like just the type of development needed to get Linux more on par with Windows.

Nice to see good open source games getting some nice improvements!

I wonder if it could help an intermediate player improve their game, just from pattern recognition of the best moves...

This time though, a bug from 2005 was solved
I wonder what Leonard Ritter thinks about it (the guy who opened this bug report)
My guess is, "About F'in time!..." (or something along that line)
How about a nice game of Chess with Lichess

Quoting: morphlesEven though as board games chess is kinda meh
What???? Have you ever played chess??? How in the world can you say it is meh? Honestly, I'd like to know, because I really can't conceive of anyone who's ever played more than a few games ever thinking that... I can think of some arguments against it (ie, too much memorization after a certain skill level), but many of them can be offset by different styles of play (i.e. online blitz)..
Odin is finally pleased so the open-world survival game Valheim releases on February 2

I assume the Death Metal doesn't play throughout the gameplay.. That would drive me a bit crazy after a while... Love the looks of the game though..
The Linux distribution I was most thankful for in 2020 - EndeavourOS

Quoting: Sojiro84Eventually I also needed a new home because of some of the stuff that happened at Manjaro.

I didn't wanted a normal distro and I liked arch so EndeavourOS it was!

I definitely needed to adjust my arch install script a lot. Manjaro come with a lot of stuff by default that I needed and liked and wasn't in the base Arch+Cinnamon package.

But, after many test runs in VirtualBox and adjusting my install script, my system is now always quickly up and running with all the packages I need, program settings are restored and the same goes for my Cinnamon settings and my system is basically almost the same as it was in Manjaro!
Ummm, you and the author (Liam) both mentioned things happening recently with Manjaro. I've been running Manjaro-KDE for several years on a couple of workstations, and I'm not aware of anything going on... What's been happening?
Atari VCS games really are just plain Linux desktop builds

Quoting: RafiLinuxThis is interesting. If I can see it in action, I may replace my HTPCs with it.
Anything in particular you'd like to see?
