  • Nice.

    Great choice for an easy party game.

    Just One

  • Commissioned pieces that include the chosen people or subject-matter in the work.

  • 1999, at the first Homelands festival in Winchester, SE of London.

    She was Scottish and was there with a girlfriend. We were 4 guys from a different country, out for the night from our share-house.

    We talked and I was nervous about how graceful, intelligent and demure I found her. Hung out and talked, went home our separate ways.

    The next day I was at the Papillon bar-cafe with a friend and she came up out of the blue. She was distributing flyers for a gig, and placing some at the cafe. We talked and I was stunned and not confident again. Looking back, there was something there between us, but I did not initiate anything. We said goodbye with no numbers exchanged.

    Out of all of London, we bumped into eachother and I didn't read the destiny flags that were hanging around us.

    I am happy now in life, but I will never forget her, how she captured my interest and made me feel that weekend. I have no idea where she is now. I hope happy and fulfilled with whichever direction life has taken her over the past 25 years.

  • Luanti (aka Minetest) was constructed with a Lua API that makes the core-engine easily extensible, so that today hundreds of mods and gametypes have been added by a vibrant volunteer community.

    These mods have become more easily accessible with a new in-game frontend-GUI mod selector and downloader, added in the last year.

    I'm currently playing through the Glitch game-mod by Wuzzy.

    I think it is in the duration of hours, rather than minutes before wearing off.

  • Yes, it is worth getting into video games. Mental quickness, friends, and less Alzheimers are some benefits.

    People in this post are making excellent recommendations for quality commercial games.

    I can recommend starting out in videogames, by getting into Free Software (Libre) games.

    Libre Games cost nothing, have no spyware, and usually have positive, helpful, DIY focused communities.

    Here is a post I made that lists a few of my favourite free games on desktop and mobile.

    If any on this list are too difficult or hard to set up, just skip.

    Historical note

    The Fool's Errand game, from 1987, sold very well with women gamers. Over 50% IIRC.

    It is a tricky puzzle game with Tarot Card theming and an excellent sense of humour.

    Fool's Errand is not Free Software though, and way out of print. It could probably be emulated on a device that you have, PC or phone.
