The osu! Open Source Client, Lazer, Has Been Made the Default Download Option for New Users angielski

osu!, a rhythm game about clicking circles, has had a new client in development since 2014, aiming to fix some of the issues and “spaghetti code” the previous stable version had. The new client, Lazer, is open-source and works on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Lazer has finally been made the default download option...

Oh man, that’s big news. Lazer’s standard mode been essentially playable since like 2020. Recent updates have been chasing corner cases and adding features with no end in sight.

Really, how many people cared about or even remember the original? The original program was a flop but that hasn’t tainted the name.

Same. I don’t have any immediate need for any of the newly announced hardware products, but I’m hopeful they succeed because they indirectly benefit me as a Linux gamer.

Hell yeah! I have an upgrade path for my original Steam Controllers!

One under the radar feature of the Frame’s controllers is being able to use them without the headset as essentially a normal controller split in two.

The Index controllers have touch-sensitive sticks and actual finger tracking so they measure how far your fingers are from the body of the controller. They put touch-sensitive sticks on the Deck as well.

Yee, I got to play Bloodthief’s demo at a Steam Next Fest this year. I also spotted Bombun there as well, which I didn’t know was Godot. Last year’s also had PVKK, which caught my eye.

Oh, hey voidplaces! I stumbled upon that series of maps while playing Jazztronauts. In my case, I ended up finding voidmall and it was so cool to explore with friends. I briefly talked about it in my writeup on Jazztronauts.

SCP-4098 seemingly changes people spreading communication properly, specifically communication proximally Site-94 centered, procedurally. Said communication prohibits speaker’s choices, producing speech constructional primaries: SCP.

Don’t worry! I liked this game enough to spend the time to 100% it, so I wouldn’t have a reason to skimp on the effort of writing about why I like it and compiling pictures and videos.

The Soul Urn in Deadlock is very chatty and will constantly sass you while you’re trying to pick it up for your team.

I was beginning to feel abandoned.

You do know where you’re supposed to take me, right?

As usual, I haven’t even played anything yet. I’ve just been thoroughly browsing for games to put on my list, and it’s a long one this time. At the top of my list of games I want to try are:

Roughly ordered by my interest levels:

This is the 3D-printable replacement bumper mechanism I used in my controller. And by “I”, I mean my friend, who did the printing and installation for me. The click is a bit stiffer and sounds deeper than the original, but it works fine again.

For a game that’s themed as space battles and isn’t an action game, check out Cobalt Core. It’s a deckbuilding adventure about a space crew trying to escape from a time loop. The characters and story moments are fun and combat is like a turn-based puzzle of trying to position the ship to line up with enemy weak spots or to dodge missile barrages.

The hype has clearly faded from like 2016 when the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift were hot new tech. There are still games with great production value around and they’ll give you emotional and visceral experiences you’ll never feel in flat games.

Is it worth getting into currently?

For PC-based VR, you can get a used Vive for a few hundred dollars, and you’ll need a PC with modest gaming power. I’ve run Half-Life Alyx acceptably fine on an RX 580, a medium graphics card from 2017, which is often listed as the minimum required.

In VR games, everything feels more intense. Scary parts, sad parts, action-packed parts. Characters making direct eye contact with you feels really gripping. Being able to see and hear the game world all around you is a level of immersion you’ve probably not felt before.

Whether the entry price is worth accessing this niche of highly immersive games is up to you.

Today’s game is Guilty as Sock. I had a friend suggest playing it, and i saw it was on sale. So a decent chunk of money later (bye bye money i was saving) and almost everyone in my friend group had a copy. We played a good hour of the game. Each match is around 10 minutes for us. It’s a lot of improv though. It really brings...

From that big racial justice bundle from Itch, Lenna’s Inception. It’s the game Bytten Studio made before Cassette Beasts. A bunch of things from this game definitely ended up in Cassette Beasts as well.

I listed some decent Android games I know of in a past thread.

The real secret is to look for board game adaptations and stuff you’d normally find on Steam.

I also have expanded my list for when I have the Play credit and desire for more mobile games:

  • Golf Peaks, Pup Champs, and Railbound — more puzzle games by Afterburn, the same developers as inbento
  • Digital board game adaptations by Dire Wolf Digital, like Root, Everdell, Clank!, and the Fox in the Forest
  • Coromon and Cassette Beasts for your creature-collecting needs

In Sonic 2006, the entire game plot happens, but the solution to the core conflict is to do some time travel shit and cancel the entire timeline

Today’s game is some Mario Kart 64 (specifically the Spaghetti Kart version). I’m finally home back to my big fancy gaming rig. I was meaning to get to some Prey today, but i was wiped and even while playing Mario Kart i was passing out at the Wheel. Toad is lucky he wasn’t in an accident with me driving. Somehow, despite...

Sitting is required. Sometimes you need to lean to look around. Scenes are only shown in the 180° in front of you, so you never need to spin around.

I recently started playing BallisticNG, having never played the Wipeout games. I’m finding it hypnotic and the controls feel great. I’m still on baby speeds by the game’s standards.

Out of curiosity, I looked up videos of the PS1 Wipeout games for reference and they looked slow in comparison!

What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? angielski

You fell in love with a game and it's characters, sunk hundreds, maybe even thousands of hours into it. It became a comforting, immensely satisfying part of your daily life. Then you heard a sequel was coming and got really hyped but when it came out it was utter rubbish......
