What have y'all been playing? I've been continuing my Avowed grind. I'm starting to be ready for it to be over. But it is still very enjoyable. I just have other games I want to play lol

 

What'cha all been playing? I've been playing a ton for Avowed this last week. I'm really enjoying it! It's definitely got some issues but overall it's been one of my favorite RPGs in recent memory

 

Whatcha playing?

I've been playing a bunch of Avowed! I am really enjoying it. It kinda feels, combat wise, that they just fixed Skyrim combat lol. It's like Skyrim combat but with any actual feedback. It actually feels like you're hitting things.

I also played and beat Thank Goodness You're Here. That was a trip, but a funny and worthwhile one

What have y'all been playing? I've been trying to wrap up Indiana Jones, then I think I'm going to do a replay of the machine games Wolfenstein games

 

What have you all been playing?

I finished the "Roottrees are dead" second scenario and had a blast. Continuing my Isaac dead god journey. Want to start some new games soon but not sure what at this point

 

Whatcha been playing?

I've been playing a ton of "The Roottree's are dead."

It's a very cool detective game akin to obra dinn and golden idol. Highly recommend if you're a fan of the genre. Besides that I've also been checking out a bunch of playdate stuff :3

 

Official blog post: https://exok.com/posts/2025-01-22-earthblade-final-update/

Good statement from the team but damn does this hurt

 

Some slight good news in an ocean of shit

 

Three day weekend ... Messed up my schedule. Oh well, what have you been playing? I've been checking out a ton of cool playdate stuff, as well as more binding of Isaac. I also picked up a game called the roottrees are dead that I'm excited to check out! It seems like a game similar to case of the golden idol which is one of my all time faves

 

What have you been playing?

I'm almost done with Indiana Jones and have been absolutely loving it. Expect to finish it this week.

Also @[email protected] might like to know I finally got my Playdate yesterday! Been super excited to check out more of the season of games as well as your project! :) I also set up a dev environment today and am going to start making a small little thing for it!

How is that game? I've always been intrigued by it

UFO 50 without a doubt. Most creative bang for your buck that's ever been released imo

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Congratulations on the baby! And I hope your health issues have been or are being resolved ❤️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Oh awesome, I'll check this out. I've been playing the last couple days and the game really is good. Been running it great without rt and am almost done with the Vatican

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

They do have an app but it's only good for loading it. Their only currently supported way of a having a digital card is Google wallet (oddly not even apple wallet is supported yet)

Perhaps that'll change someday

Unfortunately my transit system's digital pass is not a pkpass afaik. It only works on Google wallet :/

If I can ever get a wallet app that I can put my transit card onto I'll switch to graphene

Yeah with my 3080 I'll be able to run it pretty well I think. Unfortunately I can't do the full ray tracing since it only has 10gb of vram :/

I believe it needs a minimum of 12 for full ray tracing

Been super excited to get back from my trip to be able to play this!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Ahh I see. I like that more I think. Cool!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I believe it's full coop. Not like from soft games. Seems to be a kinda 3 player roguelite thing. 3 players get random builds and weapons and make their way to a spot where a circle is closing in to fight a big boss together. Not a live service. Full game for one price

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah thankfully I have a built in group to play with haha. I can imagine randos being toxic
