Quoting: haikustill unable to play with a controller :angry:
There's been an update recently. My Logitech F310 was picked up straight away, so maybe your controller will be, too?

Frogun is a 3D platformer with the soul of a Nintendo 64 game

Purchased this a couple of days ago and have been having fun with it! The only minor irritation so far is a limited number of checkpoints on each level. Replaying a section six times can get annoying... but maybe I should just Git Gud? :-)

I've recently started a new run at Hellpoint. Bloody good game but very challenging, so I only play in short bursts to avoid the rage!:grin:

Quoting: CyrilSeems they won't release it on GOG.
Yes, with GOG's legendary record of Linux innovation and support I - too - am disappointed. /s

Wishlisted. This game sounds purrfect ;-)

Quoting: scaineNomad Survival is another great cheap Vampire Survivors styled game
Yeah. I've been sucked into this game for the last 24 hours! I like the idea of a larger number of skills and being able to re-roll the offerings from the start. The music is cool as well!

Organ swapping FPS 'Wrought Flesh' gets a huge free update

This looks like a game that David Cronenberg might have made :-) Alas my Steam budget is depleted this month so maybe next time.

Denuvo announced Denuvo SecureDLC to protect DLC

Quoting: Appelsin...faff around with downloading from torrent sites, applying the cracks and workarounds for online features (if the get access to online at all).
The repacking scene has come a long way since then. There's now reliable repacks which include all of the modifications and cracks necessary to go online with other users of the same software, complete with installers!

Quoting: AppelsinTo be honest, I don't think it's even about piracy at all at this point. It's about having control over the games.
Agreed. The EU Piracy Displacement Study didn't support the publishers' claims so now they want 100% control over the software you spend your money on.

Denuvo announced Denuvo SecureDLC to protect DLC

At the moment there seems to be only one former scene member who can reliably crack Denuvo. We'll have to see how this latest iteration works out.

Personally, I won't buy Denuvo-infected games (or DLC) as I disagree with the protection on principle. It's bad enough that Ubisoft are currently crippling older (no longer supported) games that require online authentication; they're happy to take the suckers' money at the time, though.

EDIT: grammar!
