GammaGames,

Towerfall was one of our favorites in college, so much fun if you can get a full game! Fuck brambles 😤

GammaGames,

I played a bit of a closed beta I’m not really allowed to discuss in detail, but I had a blast! Looking forward to the full release.

Also got part way through episode 2 of Walking Dead, I forgot so much of this story. Handing out 4 pieces of food to 10 people (well, 2 to 8 since the kids were guaranteed) isn’t easy 🥲

And story time: My partner and I were down 146 to 149 in Destiny 2 crucible. We were separated and each crouching with glaives so they wouldn’t see us on radar.
I waited around a corner and filled someone with stab holes while she simultaneously killed some guardian with a sword (which kill in one swipe), since we were holding 2 zones it gave us the 4 points to steal the win! Glaives are so much fun in pvp

Camping sounds fun, I’m jealous!

GammaGames,

I didn’t know they redid Ethan Carter! The original release used photogrammetry and was GORGEOUS, was one of my favorite walking sims

GammaGames,

I’ll have to check it out, thanks!

GammaGames, (edited )

Let’s compare circulation numbers:

I’d say they led by a few copies (edit: for the mid-2000s!)

GammaGames,

I read the digital edition in high school, the covers were a lot more fun in print!

GammaGames,

Fair point! Looks like Nintendo Power had well over a million throughout the 90s and Game Pro sat around half a million. GI didn’t start until 1991 so it would’ve been significantly lower, but it started getting pushed harder by 2000.

We’ve probably done more research in this thread than the person writing the article lol

GammaGames,

People are losing their jobs

GammaGames,

(According to my hastily-done internet digging)

It was mostly distributed by FuncoLand, and only really started to pick up when they included it in their Fan Club subscription. B&N bought them in 2000 and pushed it hard while expanding stores, eventually they got big enough that they could get exclusive reveals.

So it’s a case of pretty much always being bundled in with another service!

Trying to remember a video game trailer about managing a big walking living tank in a fantasy setting angielski

It’s driving me nuts that I can’t remember, but I saw this trailer that I think was posted here a couple of months ago. It had a steampunk-ish but bright fantasy aesthetic, and it was about managing this giant walking tank as it walked towards the right of the screen, going from place to place, with the occasional battle...

GammaGames,

Maybe this post? lemmy.zip/post/16899846

GammaGames, (edited )

Dang, it has a dev commentary? I think that’s worth replaying for. I’ll have to pick it up… sometime!

GammaGames,

Oh absolutely, I just listened to the clip and he said they did commentary “at a much more thorough level than anybody’s ever done it” 🤔 I wonder how that could possibly be true

GammaGames,

Knife fight!!!

GammaGames,

Boss Fight Books is releasing their AC book later this month! bossfightbooks.com/…/animal-crossing-by-kelsey-le…

GammaGames,

Beat Wolf Among Us! I played it years ago but loved the replay, now I’m on the Yhe Walking Dead

GammaGames,

Wow, right after a price hike? Who could’ve seen that coming!

GammaGames,

They raised prices for gamepass and made it so the lower tiers don’t include day 1 releases

GammaGames,

They do! Better than nothing

GammaGames, (edited )

It sounds like they’ve got some plans, though I’m not sure there’s anything I’d actually be interested in:

“And this is an area that we’ve been able to move in quickly in a particular space, which is interactive narrative games. These are easier to build. And we place those in a narrative hub that we call Netflix Stories.”

“I think the idea of being able to take a show and give the superfan a place to be in between seasons and even beyond that, to be able to use the game platform to introduce new characters and new storylines or new plot twist events […] I’m really excited to see where this goes.”

GammaGames,

I hate it! Would be so much better if they funded regular devs to make regular games that are sold like normal

GammaGames,

Hell yeah!!!

GammaGames,

I’ve only really used it to try out new games, it’s a great deal if you only use it for a month at a time!

GammaGames,

The new standard option also include online console multiplayer access, which is something that Xbox Game Pass for Console lacked previously.

The standard tier sounds decent, loss of release day games but I’m guessing they’re expecting CoD to push people to the higher tier.

GammaGames,

You’re right, it’s a pretty big downgrade and probably reason enough to cancel for a lot. Especially with CoD, they could save the subscription for a few months and then buy it and keep it.

GammaGames,

thanks I failed pokeschool

GammaGames,

Been playing a lot of Destiny 2 lately! Having a lot of fun with smgs in crucible

MODERN WARFARE: How Call of Duty 4 Changed a Genre Forever (Documentary by Ahoy) (youtu.be) angielski

A documentary not only about how CoD 4, but how CoD came into in the first place. I’m currently a few minutes into the video and want to share it here. Documentaries by Ahoy are always enjoyable, without too much fluff and jokes. Highly recomended....

GammaGames,

Watched it last night, great video! I’d forgotten about IW’s tumultuous start

GammaGames,

People give discord free access to their screens whenever they play a game? This will be much easier to use than nvidia’s (and obs) since it has controller support

Multiplayer Arcade-Style Indie Game Recommendations? angielski

I’ve been playing a lot of blazing beaks with a friend of mine, and I’ve been interested in other indie games which take this arcade approach of being infinitely replayable whilst still being a multiplayer experience that I can maybe take on a goal to play with a friend...

GammaGames,

My partner and I like Boomerang Fu, Stick Fight, and Towerfall. I think there are a few more but can’t think of them right now. There’s not much of a goal other than competing though

If you want to test your friendship you can try 100%ing Super Bunny Man!

GammaGames,

The full title is PVKK: Planetenverteidigungskanonenkommandant

GammaGames,

I am fucked

GammaGames, (edited )

Their last game was in Godot and the engine has a small vr modding presence, so even if it’s not official there’s hope!

(If this one is in godot, not sure about that)

GammaGames,

Love to see it, thanks for the confirmation!

GammaGames,

You should educate yourself on the subject 👍 you appear to be defending death threats while not actually saying anything substantial or relevant

Wow, there’s an article on the subject right there! How convenient

GammaGames,

You are appreciated 🙏

GammaGames, (edited )

Walkscape! It’s like playing runescape but instead of sitting in front of a monitor for hours you walk around

I spent the afternoon walking to the mountain and am mining copper ore as I do chores, tomorrow I’ll smelt them and make some upgraded tools!

The History of Tetris World Records [by Summoning Salt] ~ a 2 hour documentary (youtu.be) angielski

I just watched an excellent 2 hour (just needed to edit title, as I noticed it was 2 hours and not 1, wow time really flew away!) long documentary. The build up in stages and showing the evolution of the best players achievements, is intense and very well edited, narrated and written documentary!...

He’s got a bad case of dramatic video essay voice. Thanks for the tip, 1.25x speed still sounds natural and hides a lot of the dead air

Can somebody explain why game makers don't start their own companies together? angielski

It seems like every other week a game studio is massively laying off employees; sometimes after years of development. What I’m reading is that it’s a quick way to lower expenses and pad the investors’ pockets, flooding the market with developers and reducing their value, to then hire them back a few months later at lower...

GammaGames,

Which means using up your savings and relying on your partner to support you

GammaGames,

If I had to pick all time? 3DS! It has sooo many games with supporting the DS and 3DS library, DSiWare, and of course homebrew.

If I’m picking my current favorite I’ve got to go with the Playdate. It’s portable and has a lot of fun small-scale games.

(yes I like handholds why do you ask)

GammaGames,

I never had a n3ds! Couldn’t bear parting with my animal crossing poptart edition

GammaGames,

I think that discounting the 5th best selling game of the year (plus all the awards) because you like games on other platforms is a mistake.

Graphics aren’t everything!

GammaGames,

What makes you think it’s a handheld game? It was originally designed for and did release on the Wii U, a console

A personal argument for a benefit of gaming

I grew up hearing all the talking heads (media), religious groups and parents strongly criticizing video games. You’ve, probably, heard some of this. For example, video games involving any type of violence causing people to become more violent, etc. As far as I know, the academic community has failed to produce any negative...

Unfortunately, Let Me Solo Her has retired
