Iām fairly certain u would be absolutely fine stepping on copyright w/ clothes stuff online, anecdotally there r 1 million ppl on etsy/redbubble/etc. doing that not 2 mention stuff like boot boyz or findsleep which is a lil different in that they have their own printing setup but stillā¦no legal issues and boot boyz released a āThiefā hat today - no way do they have the rights to that.

You can actually play the PS2 Chronicles version with replaces Dante with Raidou in English, and not only that, but your U.S. saves will work with it, as well, and is probably the version Iād recommend.
Maybe Iāll look into setting up a shop over the next few days. Iām not sure what getting shirts printed entails or if it costs any money upfront, but if I can make money off of the random T-shirts I janked together than thatād be wicked. I just need a name.
ETA: I wonder if I can call it
āJust Dupe It!ā

Does anyone have any Steam Curator account that vibes with them?
I like the idea of curators in theory, but in practice I havenāt found one yet that recommends things I would actually play better than the AI recommendation system
certainly not everything theyāve recommended is something iāve been interested in, but this is the only big curator i know who picks games like this and iāve found some stuff i wouldnāt have otherwise

The RG351v can mess with Pico-8 stuff in theory and wondered what I must check out? My guess is @loki @ellaguro and @username might have ideas?
you can play my aborted demo, āto bezier is humanā

Oh yeah like I can remember which games run on which enginesā¦
I donāt know that any of these are must plays, but if looking for Pico-8 games of some worthā¦
Pixel Session Vol. 1 is a collection of five high score chasing minigames that are all neat without any one of them being a big thing you can sink your teeth into for a long stretch of time. They all have a very noisey aesthetic that could turn some off but I dig. I was gonna use this as my entry in the high score threads we had going for a bit a few months back if BREAKER wasnāt an option.
Sophie Houlden has created some neat games with the engine, my personal favorites being the two short platformers (short as in a few levels long) Pumpking and Curse of Greed: ULTIMATE, the latter being the more ambitious of the two. She also did the kind of micro scale metrovania Dusk Child that feels more like their 8-bit antecedents. Those are all like 15-20 minutes tops.
I wrote about the odd Turn Chase in the bundle thread some time ago, it is still a flawed puzzle/strategy game that I think has some legit mid to late game issues and allowing grinding wrecks the difficulty curve at a point, but might be worth at least looking at and considering?
Interactive Portraits: Trans People in Japan isnāt a game at all but basically a few brief condensed interviews with trans people from various walks of life in Japan, they gave them all cute pico-8 graphics avatars that I found to be charming.
I keep intending to check out Pushamo but never actually get around to it. Itās basically an odd take on a faintly tetris-esque block clearing concept where pieces appear on any of the four sides of the playing field and you have to move them so that they form solid squares that then disappear from the playing field. There seems to be some sort of combo system in place, without playing it is hard to tell if it has enough depth to work but it is at least interesting looking.
EDIT: Oh yeah, Zepton is a kinda iffy to poor Star Fox-esque rail shooter that I wouldnāt recommend as a game but is maybe worth looking at for a few minutes just because it is technologically impressive in a āhow did they get this running in Pico-8ā kind of way.

Okay I am putting this here.
If you happen to get Elec351 for an Anbernic product like say the RG351v and cannot get ScummVM to work:
"So, I had the same problem here where ScummVM wasnāt showing up. And I found an issue that seemed to have fixed it.
In the ROMs partition, that has all the various system folders, there is a āgamedataā folder that is supposed to have settings for various programs (drastic, ppsspp, etc). The ScummVM folder had another ScummVM folder in it. Inside that it has folders (extra and games) and an ini file.
That folder structure shouldāve been gamedata\scummvm\ not gamedata\scummvm\scummvm. So if you just move the āextraā, āgameā folders and the ini up one level, it fixed it for me.
Hope that makes sense"

I just finished up playing Oxenfree and the game is dropping pretty big hints that I really should do another playthrough and taking a quick look online the fan community around the game says to as well but I donāt trust those faceless people as much as I trust SB folks soā¦ for those who have played the game is it something where I really should play through it again or am I safe feeling like I saw enough the first time through?
I havenāt gone too far into the second play through, but there are differences to the story almost immediately.

Is this something that is gonna require a walkthrough to see or more than just a second playthrough to get to, as this was a very fine game at 4+ hours that would not be so at a dozen hours.
At the risk of ruining any surprises, Iām just going to say not to worry about it.
Itās not a fantastic game, but I liked their decisions.

Alright, I started a second playthrough and will keep my fingers crossed.
ā¦the inability to skip repeated dialogue is a cruel cruel choice my god and I am already scared of what Iāve done.

Are there tabletop wargames more like FFT than Fire Emblem or Advance Wars? I want to field a handful of heroes rather than a whole army.
Games Workshop have produced a couple squad-sized games, Necromunda is the 40K-themed one and Mordheim is the WF-themed one.
Iām sure there are bunches of other more modern board games that scratch the same itch, Iām not too familiar with the scene these days though.

the first time i played dnd, my reaction was āoh, itās like shining forceā
(but mordheim is probably what you want. except that itās long out of print and super expensive)
