Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeDid they not fix the issues with it? I was initially interested in it, especially with it having splitscreen

But all the issues people reported just put me off wanting to get it unless it's ever on a BIG discount
According to the Steam forums they fixed some issues and introduced others.
But I think the problem is that even if the game was practically bug-free, by now way to many people lost interest in it. That is a death sentence for a multiplayer game. :sad:

What an amazing idea! :smile:
My little niece is quite interested in creating things in Minecraft oder level editors in games and was all ears when I told her that it is possible to create games on your own. I was hoping I'd be able to show her Godot and try out something simple with her together in the future. But this could be a game changer and allow her to continue tinkering with things on her own.

While they are at it, can they turn back time a couple months and unfumble the Battlefront release? :neutral:
I am incredibly disappointed in how that went. It should be impossible to screw up a re-release of an old game so badly, that the original still has a way higher playercount...

Anyone remember Desert Strike?
Hell yes!
The scrolling was soooo good on my Amiga. :wub:

Wishlisted!

Quoting: Pengling
Quoting: TheRiddickYou know what they should do, add like 2 or 3 player coop, or 4 maybe?
They added that back in August [External Link]. :smile:
I was about to answer the same thing and just before hitting Enter I thought "You know... I am really bad at detecting sarcasm on the internet. I am not going to answer." I still cannot tell, but I suspect a missing /s. :grin:

Noooooo... my spare time... :cry:

Alright, alright – I'll get my controller. Man, for the three bucks or so that I payed when it was first on Steam, I've got to say that I have really gotten my money's worth out of this one. I don't think that any other game I've ever played even comes close.

5 years later Valve finally gives Windows compatibility tool Proton a logo

Quoting: neolithSorry to be that guy, but that is really not a good icon for the name. :sad:
By the looks of it I would guess hydrogen anion, but never proton.
To be fair, protons don't really look like much of anything. Heck, I think it's hard to even abstractly conceptualize them as looking like much of anything . . . maybe you could represent them as some kind of swirl of three components (the quarks)?
I completely agree.
It is incredibly hard to visualize something that is rather abstract in contrast to things that we can visually observe in daily life. I am not saying, they could have easily done better because there is an easy solution.
But I feel like showing something that is visualizing something completely different is not the right way. They'd better make a nice thing out of the word mark than trying to make up an icon for something that the name isn't describing.

Quoting: CatKillerI've found this site [External Link] which has a handy scrollable list of all the Next Fest game descriptions.
That is so much better than Steam's own site! Thank you!

Embracer just wants to give you a big hug.

By “big hug” I mean burn everything to the ground, but similar.
That game also comes with Denuvo and apparently uses Epic Online Services.
