Hexbear: why do so many people want to degenerate with us

Also hexbear: Spams every complaint in other instances with unrelated images

12 Minutes. It sucks because I was really looking forward to it - it's published by Annapurna which has an amazing track record, and the trailer and concept looked really interesting. But it just kind of devolves into a really basic point and click game with one location where you just have to try every combination of things until something works. And the story itself is just a trainwreck. I wasn't left satisfied or with any interesting thoughts, I was mostly just confused as to what the hell I was supposed to get out of it.

If you want a good time loop game published by Annapurna, just play Outer Wilds.

Kira please stop asking me to turn into anime characters

Fair can mean pale-skinned and maiden can mean virgin.

But you can get both editors on either de? It's not even like nautalus vs dolphin where you compare defaults since neither come preinstalled.

Yep, I wanted them to be easy to spot so they have lots of smooth curves in contrast to the environment, where I try to limit myself to sharp angles.

Thanks!

Thank you! It's hard with story-driven games, I think there's a reason why there aren't trailers for books lol.

Thanks for the wishlist! I've taken from a lot of stuff for this game. Naissancee (and indirectly Blame!) are the main ones in terms of aethetic. The strange liminal vibes of stuff like Inside and The Beginner's Guide is also something I want to capture.

I don't have a steam deck, but I'm developing on Linux so a native Linux port is a guarantee, and I'm aiming for full controller support. So it should work pretty well.

I played it a while back and it's one of my favorite games. The sound design is top tier.

Inside and Naissancee have a lot of moments that just gave me a huge sense of awe. They have some really haunting, yet beautiful scenes.

Thumper just makes me constantly question how the hell the devs made the game look that way.

Half Life Alyx is weird because it didn't so much blow me away with the huge things as it did with the small things. There's so many small objects and details everywhere that stand up even when you're physically shoving your face into them.

I've never heard of those books, just looked them up and I think I'll have to check them out! Thanks for the wishlist and the recommendation!

They've recently made some changes to the style that make it a lot more modern, mostly switching to the papyrus icon pack and making the accent colors more saturated.

Firefox gets so much crap for the logo when it's probably the best minimalist logo there is. People just mistook the more general Firefox "brand" logo with the actual browser logo.

It's always funny looking back at stuff like this. I remember looking at old articles about Catherine Tate becoming a companion in doctor who and people were furious - and in retrospect not only was she one of the best companions, but that was probably the greatest era of the show.

We should be able to see who's playing the game.

Put Gordon Freeman on one side of the board, and Saul Goodman on the other.

Is that a widespread problem with decks? I feel like for the most part they're lasting ok. There's always gonna be an occasional dud when manufacturing something, especially when it's as complex as a computer.

True but not all tech companies are so forgiving. Most laptops I get have their warranty expire after a year, and I doubt they'd replace anything without charging something.

I wonder if this is a big amount for Norway's government. After 3 years you've got 100 million dollars. Not huge but you could build a nice hospital or something with that.
