Very funny. I don't know if the english-singer's voice might start to get to me, though.
I looked up the original version - the voices seem much more relaxed:

Nice. I enjoyed the demo. Good mix of challenge.

Ethan Lee is a hero.
For a while I was trying to buy every game he ported, but I couldn't keep up!
His work behind the scenes is also amazing.

Hmm. They have Okami on sale, and protonDB gives it platinum. Very tempting.
I played it twice on the PS2 and then again on the PS3. Yes, I do think it is worth paying for 3 times...

Quoting: fleskSo, all in all, I think it has the potential to be a very interesting game, but it's possibly a bit short on content right now, and it could benefit from being a bit more streamlined.Thanks, flesk. I always appreciate your opinions and reviews!
Distro News - Ubuntu 20.04 'Focal Fossa', Ubuntu MATE and other flavours released

I do have some business software that would be really nice to run in Wine, but the Neon dependency chain is just different enough that it is a fool's errand trying to get it to work. I keep thinking that Wine would be a perfect use for snap, but I only find "supporting" wine snaps for other programs that are already pre-packaged. No good for me.

Quoting: The_AquabatI've been using Kubuntu flavour since the beta was released, not a single bug. Such a quality release, impressive!! good job canonical and team!I used to use Kubuntu but defected to Neon LTS a number of years ago. I have been pretty happy with its recent stability. The only thing I miss is 32 bit Wine, but Proton covers most of that use.

I played the demo and it is quite fun. Some challenging platforming and I like the level design. It has a lot of promise.
It is cool seeing games coming out of Hungary!
Not Yet is a multinational indie studioWhile linguistically correct, I think the term "multinational" is mostly used in English for companies that are a little bigger :-)

Nice summary, Liam.
I am still amazed at the success of Linux gaming, considering our relatively small market share. I do hope that Valve (and everyone else) continues with the great support.
I still prefer native games, but have been astounded at the progress of Proton.

Quoting: TehFreekHmm. I almost exclusively play with the steam controller and have only ever had proton games start the screensaver. That seems to have been fixed for a while, though. Is the screensaver still a problem for many people?Quoting: no_information_hereI am curious, as someone who has never used the daemon: Does anyone here use this much? Are there any non-Feral games you have found that benefit significantly from GameMode?At the very least it disables the screensaver for games only being played with a controller (since they usually aren't considered "user input devices" by the display).

Interesting. Nice to see Feral's work get pulled into the official OS.
