Feels like they’re still figuring out how they want to do this, themselves. Every now and then i’ve been visiting the art themed pixelfed to follow people with mbin, and the explore page is sometimes there and sometimes not.

Looking forward to it further down the road in development. I do wonder why these dollhouse sims are so rare, since they’re so popular.

How big is that? It’s cool!

I’ve heard of it before and considered playing it, but I have a tough time committing to play a game with sexual violence as a theme. It’s nothing against the game, which looks interesting. If anyone knows of a good let’s play for the series, I’d love to experience it in some way, even if it’s a dulled experience.

Immediately recognizable likeness. Great job!

They’re pretty strict about depictions of violence against minors, right?

One thing I really loved about it was even though the character models were as weird looking as you’d expect from the era, the backgrounds were beautiful and when i played it years later with more modern sensibilities, I still was fond of them. The story took advantage of the fact that the main character was an artist, so there were a number of colorful or visually interesting segments.

The whole experience felt so vast, and even not being a child any more (which can make stories seem vast because of your own imagination), there still feels like there’s a lot to both worlds. And history to characters, just out of view.

It also lives up pretty well to its name. There’s a lot of it. A lot of lore and locations and puzzles. Some of the puzzles are obtuse to the extreme, and silly. There’s one that’s almost legendarily bad, so it has that bit of history if you’re interested lol.

It’s tough to say what’s nostalgia and what’s my preference and what’s genuinely great. You’d probably have to play it to find out!

My nostalgia faves are still The Longest Journey and Grim Fandango. My love of stories told with games started here. I do need to think about what my all time favorites are, though. That’s a big question.

This sure isn’t true lol

I don’t know if it’s amazing writing, but I was cringing less often with this one than i was with ‘it takes two’

Not the kind of game I enjoy playing very often, but it’s been great watching streamers try it out. It just looks fun.

I’m really hopeful about this project. This kind of project seems like so much work for little reward, but they’re plugging along

The only thing I can find about that is an article from someone obviously transphobic and some reddit discussion about the article.

https://www.reddit.com/r/LinuxDrama/comments/1ewj6cs/ladybird_web_browser_developer_attacked_by/

I wish i had evidence from a source less likely to ignore anything that goes against their bias. what’s there plus the stuff that happened afterwards mentioned in the reddit thread makes it seem more like the developer is ignorant but eventually came around. but there could be a lot more i don’t know about.

Okay, cool. I was hoping it was an opinion thing, but the “Mod” next to your name made me concerned this was more of an official opinion and you wanted to discourage the posting of articles like this one. Thank you for the clarification!

(Btw, I can’t see the red shield on my instance, but it’s clear when I go to the original url. I’ll have to see if federating that is an upcoming thing for mbin, or if I’m just missing it somehow.)

First off, is this the perspective of Uplifting News as a community? I posted an article from an lgbt oriented news site on this community before, and got a similar question. You’re a mod, so if you think we shouldn’t post articles from queer news sites, could you let us know that?

I’m queer, so I read queer news all the time, and sometimes there’s something that cheers me up a bit on those sites instead of depressing me, so I’ll be like “i should share this with that uplifting news group!” If it’s going to be a debate every time we post from lgbtnation, pink news, transvitae, etc, then let us know. They are always going to autofill with headlines about the group they are writing news about and for.

I appreciate them and their work so much. They must all have a thick skin to deal with users every time stuff is broken.

I’ve heard them called “search-action” games before, for people who dislike “metroidvania.”

Probably better to use a more general community for the time being, yeah

It might be nice to have a community or something where people link interesting blog posts or blogs. Maybe there is one? (plz share the link if there is!) I always used to find new blogs from people who did like weekly good post round-ups.

just read it as ‘flow market,’ realized it was german, and looked up the word. it doesn’t look weird at first glance.
