(ps, we are aware of the typo in the graphics, but it’s too expensive to fix now)
I'm confused. Which typo?
At first I thought "wub" instead of "love", but then a quick google search gave me this:

Wub

"Wub wub wub" means "wuv wuv wuv" or "love love love" or "<3 <3 <3". But since "love" and "<3" aren't as cuddly, "wub" is frequently used to display affection with more pinkish. It usually comes with plushies.
Pink Gummy bears with "I wub you" are classic examples.

I think I might be missing something in the english language. :confused:
(Yes, urban dictionary is not a great reference for that. I know. ^^)

And how expensive can it be to change "wub" to "love" in the picture or any other part of the text (assuming the creator of the picture stored a raw version with layers)?!

Haaf's Game Engine (HGE) comes to Linux!

The icculus bugtracker mentioned some issues with multimouse support on GNU/Linux, so hopefully this will speed up the bugfixing a bit. :)
Even more reasons to pay for the HIB again. Maybe the 2 million $ mark can be passed this time. (or 400000 purchasers which would be even more significant I think)

Want to win a copy of Humble Indie Bundle 3?

I thought about buying a gift copy and doing the same thing on identi.ca. :)
Might still do it eventually.

The Humble Indie Bundle #3 now 11 games

Just tried and it says "you are not whitelisted on this server".
If I add the port number, i.e. enter 83.222.240.184:29265, the connection just times out and I get some socket read error.

P.S.: It's a trap! Just like the free-to-play WoW. Game developers are trying to trap us in their games! xD
I don't think I should spend more time on minecraft. It runs and that's it. :P

The Humble Indie Bundle #3 now 11 games

11 games + 1 limited trial to be more exact. :)
Or 1 limited time trial (minecraft), 1 in development (cortex command), 2 episodes of one (steel storm) + 9 complete games.
But why am I criticising, when I'm planning to buy it a second time? ^^
Just wanted to add a reminder of minecraft, which I've now finally tried for the first time. :)

OpenClonk and Humble Indie Bundle updates.
2 Aug 2011 at 11:06 am UTC

It's worth noting that Clonk came out before Terraria, Minecraft and Cortex command. ;)
I'm not sure if it's the first game with a "dynamically modifiable landscape" (more than just worms-like terrain), but it's quite old.

The Humble Indie Bundle #3
27 Jul 2011 at 7:36 am UTC

I think I should start counting how much money I spend on games now. ^^
I'm also hesitating between giving a lot to the HIB3 or a bit less + some to stuff like FOSS games/projects, opengameart, humanitarian charities, etc.
There should be an option to donate to other charities/projects through the HIB. :)

(child's play and EFF are very centered on the english speaking parts of the world... :/ Does the EFF act worldwide?)

Achron updates

ACHRON IS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
How did this get past GamingOnLinux and LinuxGamingNews?!!!!
-> http://www.achrongame.com/site/index.php [External Link]

And you get one additional free copy if you buy it!

The bad news: 64-bit only and "experimental build", but still quite good news. :)
Linux: 64-bit GNU/Linux; it is a working experimental build that requires either the proprietary ATI or Nvidia graphic card drivers. We are planning to support Mac and 32-bit GNU/Linux in the future.

Your links don't work. :(

As for Loki, it was already gone before I even discovered GNU/Linux. :/
