Games

I totally understand this, and I used to feel the same way but then I realized that these creators probably need the support if they are going to go from early access to full release. It really helps, and it wasn't really that much, $14. I canceled World of Warcraft And Hulu for a month because there was nothing to watch there anyway. That was more than enough to buy it. But I don't blame you at all of you don't want to support early access games! I totally understand

If you haven't yet, definitely check out Core Keeper!

Sun haven was a pleasant experience. Rather than automating farming, I just cause earthquakes and rainstorms to plow and water respectively. My only complaint is my thumb hurting from constantly air dashing around.

Every time a shares something in the Stardew Valley genre, there's like a militant group of commenters who are outright hostile to that new game. And yes, I'm seeing that sprinkled in the comments on this post.

Oh definitely. It's really funny though because these keyboard warriors that keep criticizing any game that looks similar to Stardew Valley, doesn't realize that Stardew Valley faced those exact same criticisms when people said that crazy ape, the developer of Stardew, was heavily inspired by* harvest Moon. It was such a silly and absurd thing to say, but everyone started regurgitating it over and over again. Just because one game starts becoming successful people forget the other games that they were very similar to in the past

If people really wanted to go down the rabbit hole though, this all started when Farmville hit Facebook. That was the beginning of it all that I remember personally. Farmville made people lose their fucking minds. People were all over that shit, it was like cocaine. No one would shut up about it for years

I don't know how gaming on Mac works, but since I switched my home rig to Linux a couple of years ago, I have not once had a problem with installing a new game that doesn't have native Linux support^[1]. I wonder whether developers have learned that they can rely on Proton for their Linux support (for better or worse).

[1]: there was a point when Baldur's Gate 3 stopped working after a big update, but I fixed it by switching to Proton-GE, a forked version of Proton. https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom

What do you mean? Native Linux isn't that relevant these days. Most games run well through Proton, and some even better than on Windows. Judging by the protondb entry, you wouldn't notice on Linux that this was a windows game: https://www.protondb.com/app/2142790

This game works flawlessly on the Steam Deck, which, in almost all cases, means it will work on Steam for Linux through Proton, which is an emulation layer built-in to Steam

This is by far the highest reviewed one I've seen lately. 8k reviews with 97% is insane. Some of the other early access games I've browsed look like abandon ware or something else

Yes you can raise chickens

The storyline is more mystical? There’s a larger focus on skills selections and cooking in this, and the relationships are more varied.

You can swim? I love pixel games that let you swim!
