After Era of Bloat, Veteran Video-Game Developers Are Going Smaller

    Penpot: An open-source design tool for design & code collaboration
  • I use Penpot for every personal project that I can. The new(ish) grid layout is just beautiful. Figma can't do that, can it!

    Unfortunately, there's a lot more Penpot can't do that Figma can. And for any reasonable complex project, or commercial ones, I have to go back to it.

    Hopefully Penpot catches up soon! My biggest showstopper right now is variable fonts. If it was possible to manually set CSS somehow, maybe that would help bridge the gap a lot!

    Thoughts on Bazzite for a desktop machine?
  • I installed Bazzite onto the laptops of two friends who have never used Linux before but were getting fed up with Windows.

    They've been very happy with it, and I've been very happy not having to worry about hybrid GPU support, or them misconfiguring something to breakage!

    Element X, Call and Server Suite are production ready
  • A way to group organize discover and control access to multiple Rooms.

    Here's an extra ironic Elements post describing them: https://element.io/blog/spaces-the-next-frontier/

    Element X, Call and Server Suite are production ready
  • Still no Spaces support. Even the short list of rooms I've joined are unmanageable when listed flat with no way to identify which Space a #general belongs to

    Steam Deck Won’t Survive 2025 Without A Significant Upgrade. - (Original clickbait headline and not my opinion!)

    YONO soft case - carry case compatible? Yes
  • I can't directly answer the question, as I don't use one. But I would like to mention that I put on a pair of joystick caps which are frankly pretty thin layers of silicon all things considered, and now the Deck won't fit inside the case unless I firmly hold it closed and then pull the zipper.

    The case is designed to fit it very snugly, it would seem! But third-party cases usually have more give inside for covers and joystick caps etc.

    What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?
  • Me too! My original discs for the sequel was unreadable even before I got to play it (it was a hand-me-down).

    I also found this mod on itch as well, after your post. I think I had to edit the configs to get the resolution writing for Nolf2 even on the revival copy (and, save files from different resolutions don't load!) If this patch can work around those issues that'd be great.

    Time for another playthrough of the series, on the Steam Deck!

  • Which is what the NOLF link in my post points to.

    Edit: no that's just NOLF revival. I suppose I shouldn't change it now, and thanks for posting ☺️

  • No One Lives Forever! Please and thank you.

    They're both fantastic games, but the original (in which you go to Hamburg and a space station) felt more adventurous rather than the more grounded sequel (in which you go to the arctics and even more exotic locale: my hometown of Calcutta). Set it in the fictionalized disco-themed cold-war with the lead jet-setting around the world, and we're golden!

    Also, only a single game, but: Arcanum. (At least this one's possible to buy on Gog and Steam...)

    Arcanum supposedly had a sequel in the works at some point: Journey to the Center of Arcanum, and frankly, while I'd prefer to see other continents on that world explored a là Around the World in 80 Days, I'd still be sold on a hollow-earth adventure any day!

    [Finished with the edits now!]
