- • 100%www.gamingonlinux.com Open source evolution sim 'Thrive' adds sprinting, visual upgrades, more competitive AI
I love watching Thrive continue to grow. A free and open source evolution sim where you start off life as a single microbe. The latest release version 0.7.0 is out now adding new gameplay features.
>This release marks the completion of the 0.6.x roadmap. Next up we'll be working through the items on the 0.7.x roadmap. For this release the major features are a new auto-evo algorithm based on miches that should generate much better AI species, and there's now a convolution surface algorithm which gives macroscopic creatures a "skin" in the prototypes. There's also a lot of smaller new features and tweaks to the microbe stage as usual. The last roadmap items to be completed where engulfing balancing and fixing as well as allowing continuing as a related species in easy mode.

Discord announcement Since the last anniversary update a lot has been added to the project to setup a strong foundation for building gameplay features on. In February <@397824651696537612> created a sleek launcher for LTR which installs and updates the game. Also in February <@397824651696537612> created a blog for more in-depth information on specific systems & updates. Back in April we created a game design doc which will be used to help prevent scope creep as well as work as a reference for prioritizing feature development in the future. We are on track to begin work on gameplay features starting next year.

- adeptus7.itch.io "Dominion of Darkness" - interactive fiction, story of the Dark Lord by Adeptus7
Text-based Simulator of the Dark Lord/Lady. Use your armies, cunning and magic to conquer Free Peoples.
(I am an author of this game. I am not a shill, game is 100% free, there is no premium content, full game is avalaible without paying - this is work of passion and feedback is my main motivation).
"Dominion of Darkness” is a strateg/RPG text game in which the player takes on the role of a Sauron-style Lord of Darkness with the goal of conquering the world. He will carry out his plans by making various decisions. He will build his army and send it into battles, weave intrigues and deceptions, create secret spy networks and sectarian cults, recruit agents and commanders, corrupt representatives of Free Peoples and sow discord among them, collect magical artifacts and perform sinister plots. Note – one game takes about 1 hour, but the premise is that the game can be approached several times, each time making different decisions, getting different results and discovering something new.
Game is avalaible for free, online: https://adeptus7.itch.io/dominion
I am constantly improving the game, adding new content and mechanics, so Your feedback would matter.
