Quoting: KawnstantinWhy can't Bungie do this with Destiny 2?
Because they simply don't want to.

That's just me using their built-in Twitch browser dock integration.

Triple-i Initiative teased by devs of Vampire Survivors, Darkest Dungeon, Risk of Rain

Quoting: Kiall1982I'm pretty sure the announcement is going to be the launch of 'Broken Roads,' an Australian CRPG.

If you go to their Twitter page - https://twitter.com/BrokenRoadsGame/status/1767593498604183751?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet [External Link]

It shows the three i's superimposed over their box art, they said they would launch the game in early 24 (after pushing the release date back from Nov of 23) and it plays on Linux. Could be a fake out but I'll be very surprised if that's not the news.
The same style of images has been done for this announcement by various developers and publishers.

Steam Deck support is now on the roadmap for Enshrouded

Quoting: LoudTechieThis is too good to be true.
After the release of the Steam Deck I've seen nobody blunt their teeth on either Linux or Steam Deck support. I've seen developers aiming to become Steam Deck verified, but support, no.
This would be the first in nearly a decade to try it.
They will fail.
I don't know what will make it hard, but although they might get it working they won't be able to consistently support it.
Also they're way too optimistic with this roadmap.
38 features in a year for one game.
Yeah some overlap, but nah won't happen.
There's been loads that have adjusted their games, fixed problems, improved performance and implemented features for Steam Deck. I've been covering it constantly for 2 years. I suggest you hit the Steam Deck tag and go back and look.

Nice to see another big hit being made with Godot Engine as well! Remember to check out our Godot Engine tag.
Do we also have Defold engine tag 😎
We do now.

What could this be? A game that they're all part of somehow? A special indie game publisher? A game bundle? A new marketing push for indie games but not specifically a publisher? Something else entirely? A few months isn't a lot of time to prepare a new game, especially with so many involved, so I doubt it's that.
Hopefully not some hackneyed ill-meshing unnecessary crossover! I'm bloody sick to death of those. :angry:
What if it includes Bomberman? :P

Quoting: benstor214What's the news's picture from?
It looks like Far Cry Primal since it seems to be mentioned in the release notes.
Yep, that's the one.

Quoting: jo3fisA blurb about each one would be nice also.
Sure, added. Will think on perhaps a better way to present for future bundles.
Hey Liam, no streaming play sessions for a long time? What happened?
Just been busy, I only do streams for fun when I have extra time.
