Gaming-centric account. My "real" world account is at mlabowicz@bigshoulders.city

I'm into #steam gaming on my #steamdeck and my #ubuntu #linux home computer. I like many different types of games including #fps, #openworld survival #grandstrategy and #metroidvania games. I also enjoy playing #boardgames with others, especially #strategy games like #Scythe

Enjoyed our game of #cascadia last night. It's a fairly simple game to learn, but can get complex when considering all scoring variables. It also helps that I won twice in a row now 😂 #boardgames

@256 I was forced to use this in college at the computer lab to do my programming assignments... the UX was beyond terrible

Another year has gone by (a bit too quickly)!

Please enjoy our, slightly overdue, third Annual Stats Overview!

The Top games stayed the same. Our Most Popular New Game Award 2023 winner Heat: Pedal to the Metal stayed strong and was the highest new entry in the lists!

These are stats over the period April 2023 through March 2024.

@BGStatsApp how do you collect the stats?

Played Bunny Kingdom for the first time with my son and wife. I found it to be an interesting worker placement game with some fun moments resulting from the requirement to pass your hand to neighbors. I ended up winning from being way behind after taking advantage of the end game bonuses. #boardgames

@isthereanydeal thanks! Is there a possibility of getting a "top deals" feed where only the best deals are featured? The current feed has 5k+ posts a week according to #feedly

sirmikester,
@sirmikester@mastodon.social avatar

@isthereanydeal I was thinking deals that involve a significant discount (> 25%) on games that are relatively popular (e.g. on many watch lists), or games from AAA studios like EA or Activision

Playtron plan to launch PlaytronOS, a Linux-based system for gaming (like handhelds!) https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/03/playtron-plan-to-launch-playtronos-a-linux-based-system-for-gaming/

@gamingonlinux their whole business model assumes valve won't spend a lot of effort to make steamOS on non valve hardware a thing...

@boilingsteam@mastodon.cloud avatar

Big news in the world of Linux Gaming, with Playtron coming out of stealth, with a Linux-based OS running X86 games ready to run on multiple types of hardware (including ARM) - they have hired the Box86 dev, the ChimeraOS dev, as well as other prominent devs in the Linux world: https://www.theverge.com/24090470/playtron-gaming-os-linux-handhelds-exclusive

sirmikester,
@sirmikester@mastodon.social avatar

@boilingsteam we'll see, they seem to be counting on Valve not making steamOS available for other hardware

A coop PvE game for two dads and three sons?
A shooter, preferably. Any recommendations, #mastodon guys? The youngest lad is 10, so as little violence as possible. Thanks 😉
