Quoting: datablobHi! Solo indie developer behind Black Dragon Mage here.

Thank you for covering the game! Excited to hear what people think about the upcoming demo.
By the way, since people have been asking me on social media, I just wanted to note that 16:10 support (incl. the native 1280x800px resolution of the Steam Deck) will be there at launch! :happy:

Quoting: EriI've been trying to run Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 from EGS on Heroic Launcher for a year, using a lot of different versions of Proton GE. The farthest it goes is playing the video intro with RATM music, after that it freezes. Does anyone knows a specific version that works or maybe a workaround?
There are reports of people running it with: Proton-6.3, Proton-GE-7, and latest Proton Experimental.

The specific version that pops up in people's reports is Proton-6.3.

Skullgirls got review-bombed on Steam after some art changes

Quoting: dubigrasuI guess people see what they want to see. I was in the Navy in the '90s and for a long time I wore a dark-blue uniform with a red armband carrying the big white letters "SSC". Those cartoons are kinda remind me of that, rather than anything Nazi.
I ensure that people online are way more gullible and way more mean-spirited than you.

removing Nazi-like depictions including armbands and symbols, adjusting some character artwork to remove sexualization of younger characters and racial stereotype issues
Good. To hell with nazis. Although I wouldn't say they did good job to remove sexualization of any characters.
