Ah shit it didn’t even occur to me to even try wasd :D I’ll give it another try now that I know. I just thought “well this seems super inconvenient”

I thought it was a very interesting idea, I love games that experiment with new things and game mechanics, but it quickly went from being a fun idea to mostly frustrating, especially since you can’t change the controls. Using the mouse and stretching the other hands fingers to control arrow keys and then jump with space is not really that different from playing a piano/keyboard piece that your hands are nearly or just a little too small for. I tested this on a trackpad, but I don’t see an actual mouse making that big of a difference, while the possibility to change the controls actually might make a big difference.

Just here to remind everyone to report that shit as well!

I always feel guilty after reporting, because it’s such a different environment, especially over here at beehaw, but I don’t think there’s been a single time that I wasn’t positively surprised that the “housekeeping” agrees there’s no place for shitty behaviour here. Always reaffirms that I definitely joined the right place.

Silent Hill 1,2 & 3 (and not just the OST’s, in-game background music as well);

Castlevania: Symphony of the night,

Alundra,

Faxanadu,

practically any Zelda,

Castlevania 1, 2 & 3

Most of the time it’s just YouTube and last.fm (I want something similar to something I like or find something new I like - I go through similar artists).

A little less, but still a significant amount - Radio Garden, I have a handful of stations favorited (Shoutout to ‘Radio is a foreign country’, they’re on YouTube and soundcloud as well among others), but sometimes I just “roll the globe” and point and check out what they have on in like, Ghana or something.

Another internet radio thing is SomaFM, though out of their stations I tend to stay on DroneZone the most for some great ambient picks.

Open up! It’s the thought-police! We have reason to believe you are reading with intent to commit a criminal act! You are under arrest! Anything you say or think can and will be used against you in the court of law!

Ooh I totally forgot this one! Osmos is seriously an amazing game, one of my favorite games of all time.

Pathos - Nethack Codex, a very playable traditional roguelike based on Nethack.

Unciv, an open-source Civilization V remake.

kids told us that it was important for Furby to…

…meditate…

Ok I’m aware that traditions are different in different parts of the world and such, but now I’m picturing that times have changed so much kids are meditating and it’s an important thing to them. I mean I started kind of out of the blue as a kid without outside influence as a pasty white European dude, but I got made fun of for it when people found out.

Kind of really cool if kids are meditating these days.

I’ve had Ocarina of Time on the backburner for most of the year (I hate the water temple so much) just waiting for me to get back to it, so meanwhile I’ve been playing Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead without tiles (couldn’t get em to work on a Mac and gave up) and I feel like I’ve finally been getting a grasp on it and it feels like an awesome nostalgia trip to playing Nethack as a kid and suddenly seeing through the Matrix. There’s just so much more stuff going on than any roguelike I used to play. This game is absolutely massive.

Yeah the reason I joined this instance was because I thought there was supposed to be less hot air bullshit like this. I think people got this hateful take already when it was shoved down everyone’s throats everywhere for a couple of years now when it’s not even relevant to the discussion. That horse has been flogged all the back to Hades and back a hundred-fold already.
