That's *awesome*. Don't get me wrong, I am not sure I will ever use this (I am not an artist), but I might learn a couple of things by looking around the source code. I am just a bit disappointed by their use of an Apache license + special contribution agreement. But who am I to complain?

Quoting: rkfgI've got the survey this month and surprisingly it has one new question! That's really rare as it hasn't changed for years. This is what it looks like:

Just got it for the first time in a long period, and got this question.
Also, it turns out that you can't get it if steam starts in BP mode (even if you close it afterwards).

Quoting: Comandante oardoWhat means "rogue-like"? :huh:

Basically, similar gameplay-wise to the game "rogue", which I admit I have never played. The closest I've been is Rogue Legacy, I guess.
To summarise: procedural dungeon, permadeath. Think The binding of Isaac, tower of guns, Ziggurat, A wizard's lizard, and a whole lot of other games.

The way the article was written made me want to watch the saw movies :)
I might put this one on my watchlist.

I am a bit curious about this game, I tried it, but never figured out how we were supposed to play it.
Is it for playing with friends? Like a RPG but computer assisted? In that case the game master doesn't have enough planning or freedom, I think.
Or is it for playing alone and choosing your enemies, etc? In that case, wo_hoo. It would just be boring, I think.

So, I am genuinely puzzled, can someone enlighten me?

Oh man, this really can't be. I might have to upgrade my computer sooner than I though, if only for this.

I also hope they port HR, but that's a bit doubtfull. I guess I will have to finish this one on Windows, for once.

Looks very nice, and a lot like borderlands. Maybe one of the marker's effects?

Anyway, I will do the same. Buy it if it can run on my computer. If not, wait to upgrade, then buy it :)

@lagh, this focus loss could explain liam's problems with left click not always registering (first left click should be for regaining focus).

This sounds very promising, with a few rough edges. I hope they will keep polishing it.

As for why cross-platform multiple yer doesn't always work, even system libraries sometimes work differently between operating systems. I seem to recall that the ones who ported Empire Total War were having problems with rand, for instance.

Quoting: wolfyrionWell I am afraid that is not good news :(

Everyone was so hype for Vulkan and everyone expected miracles like to be easy to create or port games and so on but unfortunately so far not many companies manage to create or port a game with Vulkan API.

Only DOOM(not on Linux) and Talos Principle which is not working well , at my pc is just crashing... We didnt even see any new indie game with Vulkan API.

I really dont know what to expect with Vulkan API it has been so many months and no progress. :S:

Rome wasn't built in a day, you seriously expected developers to drop everything they are doing and flock to a brand new and largely untested API?

This sort of stuff will take a long time.

I agree, on the consumer side as well. I still don't have a vulkan capable card. And drivers are still sub-par for now, although we do see a lot of progress in this area.

Love their ship designs.

I think it won't take that long between turns (if that's what you meant, @cue58) Otherwise, I guess it would be smartphone or tablet-based :)
