GTA III and Vice City get reverse engineered with a new game engine

Quoting: wvstolzingI eventually built libglfw3 from source; but the build for 'RE' still fails.

... I also confess, that I'm not confident enough to mix stable & non-stable repos on Debian. I use backports & flatpak & appimages & source builds when I need something new.
FWIW, it built fine on Siduction, a Debian sid based distro.

Quoting: wvstolzingIt requires libglfw3 3.3 min.; while Debian (which I'm currently using, after random nvidia-related f*ckups with Arch that I got fed up with) still has 3.2.1 as of now.
Or... grab libglfw3 3.3.2-1 from testing. 3.3 has been available in Debian repos since July 2019. :)

GOG has a huge sale on RPGs and sees the return of the classic Moonstone
19 Jan 2021 at 12:18 pm UTC

Oh daym, Moonstone is a brutal classic indeed! Many hours spent chopping monsters to bits on the old 386 way, way back... I say it still holds up today. Epic dragon fight anyone? :wub:

I honestly thought it was free to play nowadays... the 18€ price tag says otherwise. :huh:

Remember to buy the bundle in the native Steam client so it (hopefully) registers as Linux purchases immediately.
