I played so much Moonstone on my Amiga 500 back in the days.
I didn't know there was a PC Dos version... The Amiga version is probably still better though :)

I believe this could be an old testing hardware.
I'm pretty sure Valve aims at something beefier for a TV console.

I still have the original disc on Playstation but the additional sound track from Chris Huelsbeck already sold me this version :)

My all time record has been to survive 35 days... What a great game.
It has been my goto "casual arcade session" game for quite some times.
I love the small details in the graphics to make it look like a Vectrex game :)

@soulsource AFAIK the game is using a native Vulkan renderer so this is not related to Direct3D nor OpenGL.

I can't wait for this one.
Probably the best announce from the Nintendo Direct.

Steam Deck SteamOS 3.6.21 released fixing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle eyes and security bugs

I noticed Spider-Man 2 has a similar issue with eyes in cut-scenes.
I wonder if their patch is proper to Indiana Jones or if it also fixes Spider-Man 2.

SteamOS 3.6.21 Beta "Update of the Year" fixes security issues, plus Indiana Jones and the Great Circle rendering issues

Quoting: KROMCool that the issues seem to be fixed. Until then one had to use AMDVLK. On a side note, performance of this game is extraordinarily good, rare to see such optimized and good looking games these days.
On a good machine with 32Go RAM it runs very well but on the Steam Deck it really struggles.

Fixed a rendering issue with characters' eyes in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
I wonder if this fix comes from a Mesa update or just a Proton one because it appears on Desktop Linux as well (at least with AMD graphics).
It's literally linked in the article. It's a Mesa update.
Fair enough, I didn't see the last line.

I think this is related to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/12257 [External Link]
Ok so it seems it's a game bug but they have a workaround now in Mesa... Let's hope it will be fixed in the game because I won't get a Mesa update anytime soon.
