I like souls-likes, but the talk of taxes in the story makes me scared that it's libertarian cringe.

Also how does it run on Switch?

This is why I don’t condemn shield use because you still need to be cognizant of your stamina usage. Just because you blocked an attack, that attack you blocked took a chunk of stamina and also exposed the player to further vulnerability if they are attacked in succession. Movement and timing are as vitally important when using a shield in the same skillset of two handing or using no shield.

Parrying although requires correct timing to pull off which puts some vulnerability on the player because if a parry is timed wrong you can get hit but you also lose stamina on the hit, the timing is generally forgiving in all souls games and the only focus is really on understanding attack windows and nothing more. With that successful parry you trivialize the game by effectively taking advantage of the parry’s advantage which is being able to riposte the enemy for a large chunk of their health. Rinse and repeat until they are dead.

Parrying is a skill lacking technique which trivializes the games

Chris Roberts' vacation fund has reached a new milestone. soypoint-2

so-true With your help we can get this up to 1 billion, which will ensure that Chris gets to visit more places and can enjoy more of the local cuisine. Oh, yeah, and it helps the game get finished sooner, of course.

In other news, they finally reworked the game's UI after 12 years of R&D, and it now looks worse than it did before. Progress. soypoint-1

These days, Indies are really popping off IMO. Gems like Animal Well are coming out all the time. What are your favorites?

A take on the current Palestine-Israel crisis using the Fallout-games and TV-show as a framework to understand some of the complexities!

These include human violence, colonisation, genocide and of course power.

A original unique wargame almost entirely by me, Ilazie.

Hi everyone! In my spare time, I've been developing an incremental/idle browser game, working title: 'Do Idlers Dream of Electric Numbers', or colloquially: D.I.D.O.E.N. From the title, you can guess it is a cyberpunk themed game. It is strongly inspired by other similar games like 'A Usual Idle Life' and 'Progress Knight'

Its currently just an Alpha version, meaning the core mechanics are pretty much complete, I just need to flesh out all of the content, the story, add an end game, and fix any remaining bugs after that.

Its currently in a playable state, but mostly just the early game things. Currently developed for desktop browser, but mostly works in Mobile as well, minus some UI issues. The general gist of the game, if you haven't played anything similar, is that you slowly level up your jobs and skills over a lifetime, then when you die you start over, having gained permanent boosts to XP and various other things. And so you slowly improve every cycle until you reach the end game. Its mostly something you leave a tab open on in the background of your browser while you work or do other things and come back to check on and make changes and such.

Please let me know what you think, and if you find anything that looks like a bug. The game is entirely written in C# Blazor, compiled to wasm, so no javascript going on for game logic. I eventually plan to open source the game after a while, though, if you wanted to look at it.

I'm very welcome to any suggestions as well, especially regarding gameplay, the title (I'd welcome a better pun), or anything else.

Thanks!

Edit: Just FYI, i've changed the url to https://xenkogames.gitlab.io/DIDOEN/. I've also made a save-incompatible change unfortunately, so you will have to restart the next time you play. Going forward, there shouldn't be any more breaking changes to saves.
