Pyro, do games w AutoForge - Game that combines Terraria with Factorio?

I also see a lot of parallels to Oxygen Not Included in the screenshots.

PersonalDevKit,

In art style maybe, otherwise the main gameplay is very different.

There’ve been a few great games to recently release out of Early Access, so these:

  • Secrets of Grindea, a SNES-style action RPG with tongue-in-cheek writing and open character progression
  • Spiritfall, a platform fighter roguelite
  • Spell Disk, a roguelite with an interesting, intricate spell chain system

Still on Ace Attorney trilogy. Might take a break before heading into the second trilogy, but I’m about halfway through the third game.

While I’d played the first and some of the second game before, third is entirely new to me. The second chapter was pretty funny, even if it kind of went on a little too long.

I burst out laughing several times at how ridiculous it all was (which is saying a lot considering how ridiculous the series is), but the double jeopardy line at the end was the icing on the cake.

Like, I absolutely should have seen that coming because it was far too easy and I knew something was strange because of how obvious it was. Yet, I still carried on until a realised “Wait, what the fuck? I’ve just been played like a woodwind at a symphony.”

DeLite is one of my new favourite characters. Unintentionally hilarious in the best way.

SmoochyPit,

Ayy, I just played the first game for the time recently! I really enjoyed it. I’ve been meaning to continue, but I’ve been pretty busy. Would you say it’s worth playing more?

comicallycluttered, (edited )

If you enjoyed the first one, then yeah, definitely worth a shot.

It’s basically more of the same, but with some added character development (Edgeworth in particular) and a bigger narrative arc going on in the background which starts after the first case in the second game.

The entire series is really good about balancing some more serious moments with over the top crazines as well, which I like.

There are two new game mechanics introduced in the second game, which some people like and some people find annoying. I don’t really mind, but it does occasionally result in a bit of backtracking.

Also, if you like domineering women with whips, the big prosecutor you go up against for most of the second game is more than happy to whip literally everyone in the courtroom (and out of it, really).

SmoochyPit,

domineering women with whips

I cleared my schedule. I’ll be playing this asap.

I’m generally having fun with Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, but unlocking and upgrading all the weapons is a huge chore. Also, every time I’m finally blasting my way through all the bugs, the run is basically over, so I wish there was an extended or even endless mode, so I can just mow down everything for a while.

Then I played some more Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin, tried out a few different builds, but nothing really stuck with me. I’ll give it a bit more time, but I might take another break soon.

Finally, I picked up Dyson Sphere Program again. I’m still really early, and the beginning in these types of games is always a bit slow for me, so it takes me some time to really get into it. However, if I get over this hump, I’m usually really addicted for a while, so let’s see how it goes this time.

Just helping sentient taxis find their way home and other miscellaneous gigs in Cyberpunk 2077. Making slower-than-usual progress on this one, even though I’m enjoying it a lot, because I’ve been busy lately (and have a really good book that’s stealing my time, ha ha!).

Also it’s more like what I’m planning to play, but I’m definitely going to start a new playthrough of Stardew Valley once the 1.6 update releases. I haven’t even done most of the 1.5 stuff, so I’m looking forward to a starting up a new farm!

Very cool! I’m looking at the pictures now. It reminds me of part of the City Museum in St. Louis.

I’m sorry I didn’t see it when I visited SF some years ago.

God damn, that looks great. I wish we had a local arcade where I live but sadly they all shut down.

Hey! Friday I went to a place in Montreal that has a working Dr Who table. Montreal Pinball Arcade

It’s actually a store that sells and rents the tables. Some days they open up to everyone, you pay a few bucks for unlimited play.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s awesome! I’d love to go to a store like that!

I thought the Doctor Who game was a little disappointing overall, but as a Doctor Who fan, it was still fun to play.

Looks cool, and I like the synthwave music

PlasticExistence, do gaming w What are your experiences with Famiclones?

Most are system-on-a-chip implementations with only okay compatibility. Color palettes will be slightly off or sounds will be a slightly wrong pitch, won’t support all carts, etc.

Your best bet for playing your games on a modern screen is to get an FPGA based system, a top loader NES modded with HDMI output or simply use a cycle-accurate software emulator on a computer.

sleepybisexual,

Yea. I’m getting a retroid for my next device.

An FPGA would be cool but carts are expensive

Terraria is a classic, but this game has som real nice potential too me thinks

Nice find, I love management games and my gf loved Terraria/Starbound so maybe we just found our new timesink

Ah Starbound brings back memories!

Thanks for the share. Just checked out the demo for half an hour. Really nice game, already seems super polished.

I really like the helpful control tips, it does an amazing job of teaching you the controls. Every time I was wondering what the key was, bam there it was on screen.

Looking forward to the full release, I’ll definitely play the demo more when I have time

U welcome 🤗

ThatFembyWho, do gaming w Simcity 2000 feels.

I think it’s hilarious that people are still using DOS in 2024!

Sim City 2k was the first time I used Windows 95. One of the teachers in my sixth grade class had it on their computer, and they let us take turns playing it. It seemed really amazing to those of us who grew up with more primitive computers, like Apple IIs, even Macs, various x86 clones running DOS, or occasionally Windows 3.1.

My first PC in 1998 even had Sim City 2k “Network Edition” pre-installed. Played the shit outta that game!

wahming,

Nobody’s using DOS, but emulators exist

GrindingGears,

If you think about it, DOS still would do pretty much all you need. Everyone’s friggin too lazy anymore though, and enjoys being bombarded with bloat.
