Been playing Atom RPG: Trudograd, and am now waiting for some new content :-) The references to The Usual Suspects are great!

I have also been getting into Into The Breach. Frustrating but a very engaging strategy game.

Finally, there's always time for some Mario Kart 8 on the Switch with my daughter!

I got into RPGs playing the Eye of the Beholder series in the early 90s (all pirated, but now I have legit copies!).

My favourite series of that era was the Might & Magic games, though, which I started with M&M 3. Currently, my all-time favourite RPG is Skyrim though I am really enjoying the Atom series :-)

Hope I'm not hijacking the thread, but I was speaking with some teenage Windows gamers online earlier on and the actual response of one was, "Stadia? Yikes!". They all agreed!

They had the opinion that it was way too pricey for the service offered and that they would be more interested in GeForce Now (though one chap was showing off his AMD GPU!). They also liked the idea of Linux but still were under the impression that there were no games available for our OS :-)

The Maker's Eden seems to be missing files at the moment! Amazing bundle, though :-)

Quoting: tuubiThey seem to have also added some interesting Linux games I didn't see there before, like Lenna's Inception and Mewnbase right on the first page. In fact, there were 25 pages of games the last time I looked, and now there's 34 pages. :O

Now 48 pages! I won't play them all, but there's more than 1400 games on the list now :-)

I saw the word Driller on the thumbnail preview and was immediately thinking of the 80s '3D' Spectrum game. Sadly, I don't think it is :-)

Have recently been playing AoF: The Undead King GOLD and also have just started Depths of Peril. My current favourite, however, is Indivisible. A great-looking platformer!

Serious Sam 4 announced for August, confirmed for Stadia (updated)

I am very disappointed, but I will still support Croteam when the game is discounted. May I also add my support to the "I don't want it on Stadia" movement? I like my games installed locally, even if they require online authentication.
