Maestro, do games w Patient Gamers - Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

"Hardspace: Shipbreaker" is now on sale at steam. So far it feels like a mix between relaxing work like "Power Wash Simulator" and the story beats of "Papers, please!". It's been pretty fun so far!

Ashtear,

One of my favorite games of the past few years. Really hoping there’s a follow-up in the same universe.

Have you done other characters?

You say “your style”, so my first thought is to wonder what else you’ve done since must’ve done enough to land on a style.

Edit: ah, found your other posts! Feel free to cross-post to gameart, we want to see and celebrate all the art that games both contain and inspire.

Thanks. Sure, i have many characters. I will post it daily (Or in few days)… One by one. ;)

I like your Heather Mason. You’ve found a perfect level of detail to make these work.

Like they’re just barely “too detailed”, making them just a little unsettling, the way horror game art should be.

flango, do games w Developer Interview: my Q&A with the dev who runs 'the' Switch piracy freeshop

Making games available to people that cannot pay is still a win for Nintendo… Nintendo gets money from selling consoles, games (sold in the traditional market) and cultural influence. We just had the movie “Mario Brothers” and it was a hit. The movie sells toys thus bringing more revenue to the company.

In the end, the DMCA strikes cost Nintendo’s money with little return.

Aatube,

Honestly "cultural influence" kinda sounds like "you get paid with exposure".

ReallyActuallyFrankenstein,

Yes, but it’s legitimately different when you are a huge company versus a struggling artist. A company like Nintendo has the capital and staying power already to reap generational rewards from embedding their IP into a culture.

wirelesswire, do gaming w The Illuminator Advert - Game Boy Accessory

I had something similar for my Game Boy, but it had a built-in magnifier as well. It made the thing top-heavy, so my hands got tired pretty quickly.

@onlooker@lemmy.ml avatar

Rookie mistake. The answer to that isn’t to remove the accessory, but to add EVEN MORE accessories so it balances itself out.

theskyisfalling, do games w Steam Deck / Gaming News #22

Do you have any more information on those manuals in terms of how they made them? (Or a link to where I could read the info) Things like printing process, materials used etc. I work in print so that kind of interests me and from the photos they look of an OK quality so I was just curious.

All the best with your health, I enjoy reading through your posts even if I am not commenting every time but health is always more important so I hope things take a positive turn for you!

You can find their LinkTree here, which

I’m unsure of materials or processes, since it’s not something I’ve gone into detail on (instead I just love the look of them!), though doing a search I did see a couple of Nintendo Switch-centric sites have done ‘articles’ on their work too, so it’s kinda known in the space. I do hope this helps!

theskyisfalling,

That is fine, I didn’t expect you to be as interested in the printing side but thought I would ask anyway. Thanks for the link, I’ll have a look around and see what I can find. :D

@PerfectDark@lemmy.world avatar

If they’re on a platform you are, ask them! They seem super approachable and really proud (rightly so!) of their work, so I’ve little doubt they’d enjoy chatting about the technical details of their efforts!

You’re welcome :)

theskyisfalling,

Sadly I don’t use any of those platforms and with a cursory view their website and etsy page don’t cover the actual materials and methods used to produce them (which is a bit weird for a passion project). I may have missed it though and will look properly once I’m not working.

Have a good day!

I’ve no doubts they’d love to talk details!!!

Do you have a special game planned for the year anniversary of your posts?

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Not especially. Some people have suggested a ‘best of’ post which I’m thinking about. I always have a certain handful of games that I’ve 100% over the course of the year which I think it might be fun to showcase my favorite screenshots from. I’ll probably draft this one ahead of time unlike the others. I might also do a normal screenshot as the “main” screenshot and then the body is the anniversary

ininewcrow, do gaming w I have a shelf of boxes that I just can't throw out...
@ininewcrow@lemmy.ca avatar

I usually hold onto the box of anything I buy brand new for about three months. After that you can get rid of it.

Electronics either work or they don’t, there is seldom anything in between.

If your device doesn’t fail or develop problems within a month or two, then it will last the warranty period and much longer if you take care of it.

I just hang onto the box for two or three months just to be sure.

The only other reason to hang onto the box is if you plan on reselling the device in a year or two. It’s a lot easier to resell for top dollar or a higher price if your device is clean, undamaged, has original manuals and the original box.

Nikls94, do games w Hesitating getting a Switch 2 (1st game console in 15 years)...

I have it and I like it. It’s the switch 1 but with the hardware of the steam deck.

Switch 1 accessories work with switch2, even all of the controllers. Games work better on the new console as well.

The 2.5 hours battery life are more like 2 hours if playing Mario kart with 120fps and high brightness. Games like Deltarune get ~4.5 hours.

Velypso, do games w Day 346 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Gonna be honest and say that Barony is so damn hard that I use some of the “easy” modifiers (keep loot on death being primary), and we still get our asses absolutely destroyed.

It has taught me to loosen up about dying in roguelites, though.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I believe my friend has keep loot on too. He said he had some easier settings on but i wasn’t sure which ones. Absolutely see why though lol

ILoveUnions,

It’s hard in a good way imo. I love jt

Th3D3k0y, do games w Day 346 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

I like Barony, I do not like the difficulty cliff it gives you.

Rhynoplaz, do games w What are your favourite single-player games without much fluff, grinding or difficulty spikes?

If you haven’t already tried Oblivion Remastered, that’s a no brainier.

Avowed was pretty straight forward with a decent story. It’s more linear than Skyrim, and sometimes I had to reload a save because I walked into a situation I wasn’t ready for, but all in all, I made quick consistent progress.

I played both on Gamepass.

Also, there’s no shame in turning that difficulty bar down when it’s available. I’m in the same boat as you. I don’t want to master the game, I just want to enjoy it.
