Hi

I didn't change anything, but for next time, a Proton/WINE distinction would be nice i think.

Build a colony on a hostile alien world, today Maia is finally released

Quoting: liamdaweGoing by the release notes, your request made it in:
QuoteIn item build mode you can hold alt or middle click to bring up a selectable menu of items to place. This makes dealing with the longer lists much easier.

Yes thanks, the list stuff is a fine addition, but i was talking about the rooms digging and walls building. Since the first alpha i find it confusing, and according to the last trailer, it's not going to change anytime soon.

Anyway, i should at least launch the game once more and see by myself all the changes, together they may overrun my list of "bad vs good".

I've been following the game for several years now, refunded several times even...

I kept it the last time.

My main grips with the game are the AI as Liam explained, but mainly the build system, i find it really not intuitive at all.

I didn't play the last few updates, maybe it feels better, but it's a game i want to like, but didn't, until now.

Playing it since 2014 from time to time (thee was a community Linux build before it was officially supported).

It's one of the few MMOG that truely think the player is not totally stupid.

Also, i'm playing a spider. And a bat.

The main issue is not really the outdated engine, but the arts, shapes, colors, all very uninspired sadly. Shame because the gameplay itself is great.

Good news, they intend to improve the visual with time, as they already did a few times.

Anyway, it's a MMOG you should play at least a few days to understand how it's clever and more than a monster bashing game.

Open-world single-player space-combat RPG 'Starsector' has a major new release out and it's awesome

I'm following this star-gem since 2011. It's not getting old at all, amazing.

Gnomoria (dead in 2016)
Town (dead in 2014)
Goblin Camp (dead in 2012)
And at least 2 others i can't remember their names...

But, this one has a really great start so far, i want to believe. Du tu du tu duuu du

I love these games, but they have some common issues : Rimworld, and Dwarf Fortress, mainly.

Years on development, huge community, it's hard to do "better" or at least good or different enough to grab attention. They may become as deep, as rich, as polished, as good, as etc. But they need time, and they tend too often to stop being developed before reaching the "fun" point.

Even large challengers, like Gnomoria, wasted potential, releasing the game as "done" while it was a surprise for most, expecting at least several more months of content and polish.

I'm curious to see where this one will go !

Zeon 25, a retro-inspired hardcore shoot 'em up is now in Early Access

I own it, and it's broken for me. At launch, a kind of black screen with lot of statics, no music, no menu, and the window cannot be resized.

At the end, i wonder, who between Disney and Microsoft will by the other one ?

I'd like to prepare, should i wear squares or circles, with my forced smile ?

Gaming on Linux (not this website, the act of gaming...) is a "small issue" for me, the big one being that more and more giants are eating the smaller people.
