I'm moderately compelled towards idle/incremental games, so I've played nearly 100 of them — but ultimately I don't find them satisfying and often just kinda feel bad afterwards, so out of all of those the only one I actually recommend is Orb of Creation.

Tho I do remember the first time I grudgingly admitted than an mp3 sounded better than the midi version — it was Time's Scar from Chrono Cross.

The IRC friend that had sent me the mp3 was so baffled that this was somehow surprising to me 😅

Me in 1999: "Napster", huh? I don't know why I'd care about that, I have all the Final Fantasy midi files I could want already

Really, we just need to manifest a Dropout version of Taskmaster.

I'm a historically picky eater who also recently went vegetarian but could manage many things okay under the right circumstances. Clearly I need to assign a decimal value to every entry on a scale factoring in as many qualifiers as possible.

I did hear one of the smaller names talk about it a bit: they were asked, and at least in their case it resembled a normal Voice Acting situation.

So multiple versions given, asked to re-do a jokey word "meow" with an actual meow sound, and gave meows for a few different emotions/situations.

Tho notably the actual length of the Curator review on Steam itself is still capped at like 200 characters.

Been streaming over a decade, play 100 different games every year, don't even like several genres or big-budget games so ignore them entirely, only finish half of what I try... yet I still have a *curated* backlog of over 150 interesting games.

Oh but that's the secret bonus: Coal *also* provides us with plenty of free American Radiation at no extra charge!

Easy to check if you're unsure — turns out I was registered as independent, so I went ahead and fixed that.

(I'll also note that I had trouble with the Captchas in Firefox but it worked fine in Chrome.)

I'm amused that this is Mark Brown's only credited game, because nobody has added the credits for Mind Over Magnet to Moby's database yet.

This is gonna be the reason you don't become a decamillionaire, Peter. This and the beverage center.

Still more meaningful than "adventure" 🙃

My computer was too weak to stream higher so my Spelunky early days are only 540p20! I *think* I was the first to do this obscure one on video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMey...

I'll note Hectique still streams Spelunky so may be a resource for rare tech + modern footage: www.twitch.tv/hectiquex

A screenshot from Discord, "Silly? No, no, no, no! You are just LAZY. Nothing matters to you. You think that FTL is just some silly goddamn game, just a simple thing. You lack the recognition of its importance, and thus you use your sloth to justify not doing anything. You help noone, and are unfit to do anything. How can this community live when the figureheads don't even care for the game is beyond me, however I will leave now. This is a travesty, it is disgusting and it makes me vomit every day that you can do this to this game, you monsters."

Oh wow — this happens all the time for Twitch/YouTube creators, but wouldn't have guessed it could be practically the same in skating. (Sometimes e.g. I play some music from Minecraft, then it gets copyright-claimed by some 100-view song using the MC melody as a backing track to a rap or whatever.)

Any idea if reviews tagged as 'key received for free' count in the algorithm's eyes for anything at all? I've usually not bothered posting Steam-side reviews for games which devs send me keys to stream, since my understanding is that they don't "count" for most purposes — but I don't know for sure.

Most people believe Sam is referencing people not being sad enough about the death of Charlie Kirk. The other possibility was backlash against CGE (in August) for choosing to use the Harry Potter IP for a new game. (In response, CGE has said they will donate their FULL profits to trans charities.)

Today I saw a Steam game with 8 reviews: one of them was negative with 0.1 hours played alongside a lengthy genAI review of the game. What are we even doing.

The other post I saw was referencing this: bsky.app/profile/soso...

I keep thinking “my god the people they’ve killed seem like exceptionally good folks” and I think the lesson there is that they’re not exceptional, but that wonderful people abound and that a baseline distrust in humanity is a shitty conservative trope that privileges power over collective strength

I have not tested and cannot vouch for it yet, but I did see this: purplesky.dremixam.com

Hovering a picture labeled 'LIVE' on BlueSky shows a pop-up with a "Watch now" button linked to the user's Twitch page

Relatively? I initially assumed I was supposed to click your avatar which is wrong, but on hover you're one easy click away:

When it becomes time to stop making no money and to slowly lose money instead 🥳

Very much in the category of "I definitely never want to watch this myself but I'm interested to see people like Jacob Geller/Campster/etc. talk about it"

Right??? I mostly stream and when I want to record static audio for YouTube or whatever my voice automatically shifts in this subtle but weird way that's _slightly different_ every time I do it!

Rome wasn't built.

A unique enough game to definitely have some charm overall, tho I dunno if it's worth revisiting to finish — The endgame is kinda broken (super hard by default but cheesable; implied intended route is worse because of this).
