Troll Patrol is a heavenly mix of an RPG with Match-3 mechanics

Edit: developer has clarified. It's an additional feature, you can use it to sync between the PC version and mobile but as mentioned not required and I certainly haven't used it.

Quoting: EhvisRequires 3rd party account for single player. I'm pleased that Steam has this info clearly available so I can spare myself the time for a refund.I didn't need to link anything. There's nowhere in the UI I can see for it either.

Quoting: GuestDespite the Steam icon, Steam is telling me it will launch the game using Proton…Sounds like something is messed up your end, the Linux build is there and configured correctly.

Quoting: MayeulCYeah, that was a rush and wasn't thinking. Have adjusted and double checked, works fine like that and probably better to do so article edited.Ah, Liam, I don't think that's a good practice to make everything executable. `chmod -R -w $above_path` should do to just remove the write permission :)

Quoting: MayeulCGood call progressively removing BBCode in favour of Markdown, BTW :) Though it might be easier to just use an existing parser, no?It's a gradual process and I have yet to find a good, up to date and still worked on PHP parser that fits our needs. If you want to continue that discussion though, the forum is better since it's not related to the article.

Quoting: FurbyOnSteroidSo.. considering there is no word of it, is there someone else that has the issue that goverlay does not read the config to set the values you've already applied? I tried it yesterday and while it set everything up just fine, once I restarted goverlay it would use the default values instead of the values in the config. Which is pretty annoying if you want to change just one setting (though I guess then you could just change it in the config itself). Great tool, makes setting it up the first time pretty easy, but has issues. At least on my machineIt's noted in the Github issues: https://github.com/benjamimgois/goverlay/issues/6 [External Link]

Quoting: EikeIt already is in the article, on top of noting it was a "personal" update it also said:Quoting: AsciiWolfVery interesting, thanks for pointing out!Yeah this doesn't involve the EAC team at all.Source: Reddit [External Link]
Sad to hear this, but still amazing news!
This should be added to the article IMHO.
their own clearly unofficial progressI have now made "unofficial" bold as well as italic to make it stand out more but it was clear if people actually read that properly.

Quoting: sarmadWhat does "free with Stadia Pro" mean? Is there a non-pro version of Stadia? I thought that's no longer a thing.It means if you have Stadia Pro, you can claim it and play it free while your sub is active. Otherwise, you buy it as you would on Steam or GOG. Yes there is a non-Pro version of Stadia...it's called Stadia ;)

Port Valley is fixed, it launches now without needing to go to the folder. However, it's an old Unity build with NVIDIA issues. Added quick workaround to article.
Starmancer (not listed) now works too.

Saw a report on Steam about input issues. I tried it myself, with it locked to 30FPS and 60FPS and using this https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1856132579 [External Link] save game, which drops the FPS hard when zoomed right out. No issues at all there for me.
