The thing I liked most about TIS-100 is being able to "compete" against friends to get the best instruction count/times. Really makes you think.

Both games are a niche market to be honest. You won't learn programming, but you may learn enough to understand assembly language a little more. Having an understanding of digital logic gives you a head start in Shenzen I/O, and that game is highly entertaining.

Seriously, be prepared to think, and think hard. You won't be solving these games puzzles in 5 minutes then moving on to the next.

Quoting: PompesdeskyDid Feral note how often the word "Dirt3" comes up in the comments on this site ? Certainly is a sign that this community likes it a lot ^^

Yes, we note many things in these forums and other similar places :)

I bet you noticed how often "Doom" comes up too :)

Can we kill that fucking penguin already? We desperately need a better, more professional logo of some sort - not a decades old mascot that looks exactly like it is decades old.

Logo! Not Mascot! (for the professional environments) Leave the mascot to plushies and fans.

Quite frankly the "elitest/snobbish/arrogant" element coming out in Linux gaming communities is pissing me off big time.

How about let's do something different - if you see that a developer has taken the time and effort to support our smaller market segment, and help to expand and grow it, congratulate and thank them! It's what I do on any medium that they are active on.

And above all, if you have the absolute inability to say things in a constructive non-fucking-wankerish way, then don't fucking say anything at all!

Don't be a cunt. It's that simple.

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionLinux very much needs it's own "F-Zero".

You mean "Wipeout"?

Motherfucking Doom!

And Dishonoured 2.

And Prey 2.

And Skyrim...


These games all seem to have something in common...

The Tux icon is fucking hideous though, and scales down like a lump of cow shit does to a rabbit dropping.

Quoting: lucifertdarkI made the mistake of adding Snappy to my system a while back, it took me two days of fighting to get rid of it, every time I removed it a stray piece would cause the whole thing to reinstall, it's worse than a bloody virus & I want no part of it again thanks. If Flatpak is anywhere near as bad as that they can keep it off my system.

FlatPak is a hell of a lot better, very self contained with few external deps.
