    Yes it was designed for mouse point and click. I guess you won't be able to play user generated content on the Switch version. It's too bad, there are some pretty good content.

    I've enjoyed the series a lot. Returns was the first effort of the team and it's showing: Dragonfall and Hong-Kong are generally better liked. I've actually published an adventure for Dragonfall (available on the Steam Workshop).

    Finished Evoland 2 on my phone. I haven't played the first one. This one is an action-RPG centered on time travel, with each epoch having its own graphic style (low-res 2D, SNES-like 2D and 3D) and many different game styles (mostly action-RPG but also platforming, beat them up, shmup, etc.)...

    All them tiny Handheld who shall not deserve its own Thread

    Yes there's zero chance anyone will check your handheld, unless the police is actively looking to pin something on you (for example if you've insulted them or they suspect you of committing a crime but can't prove it). Since you're white, you should be fine. In any case the regular police can't...

    The Communication Cube

    It's not like the US AI companies are innovating in any way. They kept asking for more money and resources that any project ever had and delivered little to no improvements and a small Chinese company with a fraction of their resources was able to come up with something much more efficient at a...

    Release Pcsx-Rearmed

    I haven't played Chrono Cross but the few PSX games I've played on the Pandora, both 2D and 3D, worked fine. I'd suggest: - Trying another 3D driver (I don't remember the one I use) - Making sure you have the latest version or, if you have, trying to downgrade to an earlier version

    Recently won a game of Midwinter (with bombers and mortars disabled) and I confirm my appreciation. It's really well designed. For example I've realised that the "ice-age" world isn't just a pretext to have untextured white floor everywhere and a more oppressive atmosphere. It makes travelling...

    Box86 - Linux Userspace x86 Emulator

    Wow, better than Rosetta on a M1? Doesn't Rosetta benefit from some help from the hardware? Does box64 benefit from them as well are you just that much better than Apple's software team? And box32 is a great idea. :)

    In Japan, a special hardware called the "Rez Trance Vibrator" was sold for that game. It was a small rectangular USB device that vibrated in sync with the music.

    I've recently re-discovered Midwinter (the DOS version). An early first-person open-world game that I guess could be seen like a proto Far Cry (2+). Set in a post-apocalyptic world covered in snow you play some kind of militia member who discovers that a general is attacking the local federation...

    A few questions about the Pandora.

    In the box86 thread, Ingoreis posted a video of it running with box86+wine. It wasn't that smooth but apparently he was running the Windows D3D version and performances could be better with Linux version + OpenGL

    A few questions about the Pandora.

    1. There were a few attempts at running Android app, but they're old. Plus the Pandora has a 32bit arch and most Android apps are meant for 64bits. But there's a port of Moonlight 2. It doesn't have a port of wine, but you can run wine with box86. It requires some manual setup and some fiddling...

    The Communication Cube

    That's what bosses would like, but it's not really efficient. Code reviewing is harder (and less interesting) than coding, and if the AI codes very quickly, this means you'd have to review a lot of code, which makes it even harder to stay focused. Imagine a "self-driving" car that requires you...

    The original Deus Ex is great, but it's more of an "immersive sim" than a FPS. It's first person and there's shooting but it's not centered on the shooting. Human Revolution isn't a bad game but it doesn't have the depth of the original and it doesn't bring many new things to the table (at least...
