Psychonauts 1 and 2.

Some of the most imaginative big budget games in existence, from themes to art style to level design

What have you been playing

Jak and Daxter 2 via opengoal on Steam Deck. Such a clunky game, but it runs beautifully (except I had to stop right now because it crashed in the middle of the mission, but that’s one crash in several hours). This game feels like a sequence of levels that are just hard enough to be infuriating, but without feeling impossible. And the characters make it more interesting and easier to keep trying the same mission 20 times in a row.

Thanks for doing these, this is some top quality content!

I wonder if Microsoft is making dev mode free because hackers got close to a working exploit in retail mode. There was one shared almost an year ago, but it required a specific app from the store that had been deleted since, but maybe it led to something behind the scenes.

We just got a pretty good Dead Space remake, so maybe

Download managers usually have more control over the download process, allow downloading same file in multiple threads to increase speed, have better resume function, better organization of downloads etc. If you don’t have a need for such things you don’t need to use it.

Or Canon printers. Or any inkjets for that matter

I like how terraria and minecraft mix premade blocks with procedurally generated terrain, also Spelunky has interesting level generation, they even had a talk about it.
