Dome Keeper - A Keeper's Duty is a big free upgrade out now

So another Godot game upgrades to Godot 4. Interesting to see that mods were broken because of it, although I suspect that's also because of the engine refactoring. According to the Steam Post, they're talking with the Godot Foundation on fixes for it.

Also, CONSOLE PORTS???

Finally, Steam Deck IMU support! It's been really annoying that we've had to rely on Steam Input to expose the gyroscope and accelerometer. Hopefully, this means that more games will start to rely on gyro controls.

Quoting: torhamWish they would implement the matchmatching too, this is the only part I care about. Something like Goldberg's emulator but for GOG.
There is actually Nermintgas' Galaxy Emulator for LAN games.

SGSSAA
That's an acronym I haven't heard of for 10 years now (in official engine implementations, that is) :)

It's bound to driver-specific APIs and isn't part of standard Direct3D/OpenGL/Vulkan, so it's pretty hard to enable from the application side.
I've never heard of it before. Googling it now, it seems that it's not supported in DX11/12 applications usually, which is so weird when you see all the positive reactions to SGSSAA.

Quoting: hardpenguinIs it a good moment to remind everyone that Game Maker is available on Linux [External Link]? :D

Ayyy! I've been meaning to play the originals. The remakes didn't really hit as much as I thought they would, so maybe these ones will do the trick.

Quoting: scaineI follow this curator on Steam [External Link], and that reminds me if any potential purchase features Denuvo and their anti-consumer bs.
I think Augmented Steam does this too, by the way.
