Quoting: frykBut what I never want to go back to, is having to read all that conversation on screen. Voice-Over please :-)

Hah! I'm very much the opposite. Zero patience for voice. I finish reading. I click to skip.

Quoting: wit_as_a_riddleI wish they would do pixel graphics

Maybe I'm the only one, but I quite liked the style in Curse. The graphics, Murray, and the voice acting was probably the best parts of the entire game.

So I'm looking for my pants... in other words I'm running around in my undies all day long? This does sound like a game for me!

QuoteDropped support for RPi4.arm

Does anyone know what this means? It's not that they dropped support for the Raspberry Pi 4, right?

Probably just dropping support for the 32bit build?

The Darkside Detective is highly recommended. It does so much with so little. No voice acting, low res artwork, minimal animations and still manages to deliver!

The "Tome Alone" case was especially fun. You have to admire the mind that concocts a storyline with both Enid Blyton and Aleister Crowley. I'm not sure who was the most twisted of the two... eh, who am I kidding, it was certainly Blyton!

You know, some sort of work from home sim game might not be a bad idea:

Reach your performance target for the day whilst keeping up with the housework, pets and sick kids. Try to manage not only your own sanity and health but also make sure to keep your marriage alive!

* Mini game where you try to keep a straight face during zoom meetings when the flatulence issues of your spouse goes totally out of control.
* Do you sacrifice work hours to go grocery shopping or increase productivity by using your TPS reports as TP and risk getting piles?
* Pre-order bonus includes rare golden ergonomic office chair with +10 lumbar support!

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThis reminds me of a friend who worked for a security company. They sold alarm-type devices with software attached. They sold these in a range, three tiers I think from basic to deluxe, you know how it goes. The basic version was in fact the deluxe version with a few functions disabled. When he told me that I realized this was obviously not just his company, it is how things work.

Just how things works.

A certain car was sold in "1.8" (150bhp) and "2.0" (175bph) models. Both are in fact 2.0 litre engines with the same components. The only difference was the price and the software.

How topical! I spent most of the morning staring out the window at a crew digging up the street.

This looks very impressive and ambitious for an indie game. 15 hours gameplay, animations and voice acting...
