Sundered [External Link], Its a very fun metroidvania game up to 4 players
That game is top tier excellence. I loved every minute of it and it's still on my HTPCs for some random 4 player action when my family is down.

What have you been playing recently? Come chit-chat with us

Dead Cell - GOG

This game is a lot of fun. I don't consider it a Metroidvania, though. In most of those games you can revisit the places you once were and move into areas that were not accessible. In this game, you can not go back to those area unless you died (mind you I have not ended this game so if that is possible you can take this with a grain of salt). I find this game to be more rouge-like than any other rouge-like action platformer with the exception of Rouge Legacy which I ended just recently.

SHING! - GOG

This game is also a lot of fun but once my wife and I finish it, it will be uninstalled. The game uses the sticks to fight which is a fun and innovative way to bring life into brawlers but we prefer to play these type of games on out HTPC using our fight sticks which is not possible with this game. It's very well made, though with lots of angle and enemy types to keep brawler fans very happy.

Tonight We Riot - itch.io

Excellent side scroller with unit management as you grow mobs to take on the man. This is a great two player game with plenty to offer as a map expands and you take on more and more challenging foes as you bring the riot to the powers that be.

Zombie Army 4: Dead War - Stadia

On Saturday's I've been running the weekly events with my family online and it's been great. We also did some horde modes on brutal and got rocked by the regular zombies by the 9th round.

Destiny 2 - Stadia

Rumble - Falling in love with this mode. My friends and family have done all of the other content and so we've been here logging on and talking smack while enjoying the private room modes. I would love to have this or something like it available via of LAN when those open up again.

In short, is Stadia, GOG, itch.io taking me away from Steam? Well....yes, surprisingly.

This has been the case with me also. The 2 games I like playing on Steam kept on breaking and on top of the devs updated them and there is no way for me to play the other versions without pirating a copy and doing a lot of WINE work.

When the weekends hit and my family wants to play something online it's usually something browser based and Stadia has been great for that.

Hellpoint is an EXCELLENT game. My wife and I love that game. We have the GOG version and it's still a great game to dive into with some co-op action. We not tried the PVP portion, yet.

Terraria for Stadia cancelled, due to Google locking the developer out

I moved from Gmail back in late 2014 but my job is deeply embedded in GSUITE. I open a gmail account strictly for Stadia and Hangouts/Meet to organize events with friends and family. We are have a good time so far with Stadia but a lot of this bad press is leading a bad taste. I still go a ton of free credits with Google Rewards so I'm just gonna ride the rest of this out but man they need to get their shit together.

Using the Epic Store on Linux is even easier with the latest Heroic Games Launcher updates

Is it possible for linux users to just get the game itself and play without the launchers?

Familiars.io is a MMO monster catching game where the creatures have permadeath

Wow. This is kinda of awesome. Passing this along to my ppl and see if they will like it.

Here's a few of the Linux games we're excited to see through 2021

Viscerafest and EX-Zodiac look right up my alley. So many FPS that came out recently have slow movement that I just can't play them. Ion Fury was a breath of fresh air. Then Dusk and then Strafe. Viscerafest looks like it's more my speed with the pace of movement. Ex-Zodiac reminds me of Omeganaut which is a great thing. One of the better games I enjoyed from the BLM bundle on itch.io. I hope these two games release DRM-FREE with Linux binaries for me to pick up.

This is interesting. If I can see it in action, I may replace my HTPCs with it.
