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, (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!...

GammaGames, (edited )

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...

GammaGames, (edited )

Unfortunately, Let Me Solo Her has retired

GammaGames,

Agreed. I loved the first but I’m not going to install epic for one game

GammaGames,

I primarily play on TV and VR so big picture is already my interface of choice

Edit: does it even support Steam? They’re not advertising it on the FAQ:

Support for launching games from the Epic Games Store and GOG

GammaGames,

That makes sense 👀 how’s that thumbnail db looking nowadays

GammaGames,

https://media.tenor.com/CCiP_z843YUAAAAM/kronk-its-all-coming-together.gif

GammaGames,

Nowadays you can pick a collection and install it without having to worry about compatibility, someone else already figured it out! I think that’s worth using vortex

GammaGames,

Wabbajack is how I always dreamed it would be

GammaGames,

The season is really fun, enjoy!

GammaGames, (edited )

Bit if a long doc, but I thought it was worth the time!

GammaGames,

I’m so glad someone took the time to put together a doc about them!!

Game designer created a Playdate game to pop the question to the love of his life (beehaw.org) angielski

Game designer Aaron (Pikaaroon) today showcased how he built a game to propose to his partner. Having previously worked on Sea of Thieves and Warcraft III: Reforged, he’s no stranger to creating colossal playable experiences. For this incredibly important moment in his life, though, he chose to work with the Playdate. Which I...

GammaGames,

Oops! I thought the post UI was letting me add an image and a link, not replacing it. Fixed!

Any Playdate owners in here?

Hi, all. So I just made a semi-impulse purchase of a Playdate console. While I’m waiting for it to arrive, I would like to hear from you guys. If you have it, what has your experience been? Is it as good as some reviews make it seem? How big of an issue is the lack of backlight? Any favourite games?

GammaGames, (edited )

I love mine! The catalog has a ton of awesome community games, itch has hundreds more, and the sdk is really accessible if you ever want to try making something yourself. The season has a lot of variety too, I played through most of it slowly but still have a few of the longer games to finish.

I use a book light at night so don’t have issues with the lack of backlight.

As for games… Factory Farming (source code available!), MDMA, and Hand of the Divine are my current favorites. I’ve played a ton more though, I’d recommend looking through catalog

GammaGames,

I’d bet part of it is the new engine

GammaGames,

Pretty much every gas station I’ve been to the past week had a box of glasses

GammaGames,

People Make Games released a decent overview of the child labor exploitation a few years ago

Unsurprisingly, people aren’t okay with that behavior. It don’t help that Roblox tried to pressure them into removing the video

GammaGames, (edited )

Almost beaten Mars After Midnight, it’s a great little game!

I’ve also been playing the SW Battlefront rerelease on switch!

  • I like 1 more than 2, 2 has way too many people rolling and I like the maps from 1 more
  • 1 is also less balanced. I got 30 kills camping next to a gonk droid and recon droning orbital strikes over and over
  • There’s not many players, the most I’ve played with on one map is 20
  • Multiplayer crashes are annoying but otherwise I’ve been enjoying it
  • Galactic Conquest is as good as ever
GammaGames,

You’re right, it started as a harassment campaign and they used ethics in games journalism as a recruitment tactic. Most of the people roped in were (at least initially) useful idiots

GammaGames,

I played a bit of Bootstrap Island tonight, it’s fun! It’s a vr roguelike island survival game, monsters come out at night and it’s pretty fuckin scary
