Picked up:
  • Nina Aquila: Legal Eagle - Native. Loved the demo, cute, funny, great artwork and you get to shout OBJECTION! a lot.

  • Dogs Organized Neatly - Not native, but made with Godot. It's a very simple game, but I loved Cats Organized Neatly for the artwork and the descriptions of the animals and these seems like heckin' good doggos!

  • Unavowed - I do love me a good adventure game and Wadjet usually delivers. Native and so fresh it still got that new Linux port smell....

Considering that I'm currently playing a game (for the first time) I bought on release date in 1998 I guess I'll get around to these somewhere around 2044....

Quoting: EhvisNice. Last night I went through my library to remove a bunch of "windows" tags from games. Looks like I need to do it again. Not complaining though.
Remove the windows tag from more games! Let's try to invert this whole cause-and-effect thingamabob!

We'll always have Paris is a narrative adventure about loving someone with dementia

Quoting: a0kamiWorry not, am just yet another french dude mocking how cliché it is to word any love story related title with Paris in it, you can keep scrolling.
I'd guess that's a fair criticism but I think it's more of a reference to Casablanca and the way life sometimes forces people apart.

The backstory to Firewatch deals with the same issues. Just the short introductory sequence in that game had me in tears so I think I'll skip this one...

I'm a bit curious though if the game is based on a personal experience? It's not a subject matter I would like to dwell on, much less base a game on, but people have vastly different ways of working through these things.

I remember being very excited about the Serious Sam ports! Then bitterly disappointed with how buggy they where...

In the end I guess it was a good thing icculus didn't have time to finish them (back then) as it meant he was too busy actually being employed to port so many other games.

Anyhow, lovely article as always!
