Quoting: Purple Library Guy

Quoting: Mohandevir

Go 1v1 against another player (or a CPU) in a fighting mode. With cars. I dunno either, I came up with it while in the shower.

This one is pretty hilarious and sounds really spontaneous! :grin:

Outside the digital realm, there was a classic tabletop tactical game called "Car Wars" which eventually got a roleplaying game version. Just saying, there's always been an appeal to fighting cars. Taps into primal urges to machine-gun that fink tailgating you on the freeway.

OMG --- Steve Jackson Games --- Oh shit! Metagaming! Games that came in plastic bags! Ogre, GEV, Melee, Wizard, Chitin I, One World ... Jeez I miss my California childhood. :(

Man! That interview actually got me kinda fired-up. First about Solus. It's been a bunch of years since I last gave Solus Budgie a whirl, so I'm downloading that now, and I didn't even know there was a Plasma version, so I'm downloading that too, see if that gives me the satisfaction that Plasma almost-but-never-quite gives me.

Second, inspired by this interview, I'm going to commit myself to annoying everyone, breaking everything, and getting past the push-me-pull-you semantic congeries to finally figure out how to use Github to do more than report issues and suggest improvements. (Once I do that I'm gonna write a how-to-use Github for people like me.) ;)

I read the name twice before I realized Saint Kotar has nothing to do with Star Wars. (Knights of the ... Ancient? ... Republic)

I have two of them on Steam already, but duplicates on GoG are always welcome. I'm primarily a Steam customer, but copies on GoG make me feel better, they're like back-up copies.

Also, this reminds me that I haven't checked out the Steam sale. :whistle:

Quoting: NanobangLinux software for a hardware accessory? I mean, I'm aware it's done, but not enough for me not to sit up and take notice when something as sweet sounding as this Wooting keyboard comes along. Jeez, and I'd LOVE to get my hands on a full size British keyboard with it's spacious Enter key. (Apparently most Americans who are not me have no problem hitting that tiny Enter key on our keyboards).

I miss the spacious enter key! Also find it fun when trying to type on old computers, and figure out that Shift 2 is where the " is... Clearly the USA typers are more about the fat backspace key over having a fat Return key (that's right, I call it a Return key. I'm old, damnit!)

Lol, me too. The only reason I didn't write "(Carriage) Return" *DING* is I didn't want to lose the kids. And we have a big "Backspace" key because of all the mistakes we make trying to hit that tiny "Enter" key. XD

With hundreds of games I've yet to play and all my money going into my garden this season, I really can't enjoy this Summer's Steam Sale. Still, it probably won't hurt if I take a little peek ... ;)

Another freebie from Gog, yay! I'd never have bought it, mind you. I'm not a huge fan of souls-like games generally, but free's free, so on the pile it goes. :)
