Stop Killing Games throw weight behind California bill that would force companies to either keep games working independently after server shutdowns or issue refunds

The Californian legislation cited in Stop Killing Games’ latest progress update on Reddit is dubbed the “Protect our Games Act”, and was initially put forward by Chris Ward - a member of California’s State Assembly - in February this year. Stop Killing Games say they had a hand in “advising on the drafting of” it. Funnily enough, the latter’s also the date of a European Parliament public hearing about Stop Killing Games’ citizens’ initiative - the petition the group recently submitted to the body. Finally, Stop Killing Games organiser Moritz Katzner noted that he was called in to advise the UK government’s Department for Culture, Media & Sport on unspecified matters related to the campaign last week. He added that Stop Killing Games are “planning to build a stronger presence in the UK”, but didn’t provide any more details. 🖊️️🤖

ridge/lutris-minus-ai: Lutris desktop client. Forked from the last commit before AI was (to my understanding) used in the project.

LutrisAbout this forkThis is a fork of Lutris before AI was included in commit logs. Running LutrisIf you have not installed Lutris through your package manager and are using the source package, it is recommended that you install lutris at least once, even an older version to have all dependencies available. Via the website, it is also possible to sync your Steam library to your Lutris library. The Lutris client only stores a token when connected with the website, and your login credentials are never saved. Configuration files~/.local/share/lutris : The client, runners, and game configuration files There is no need to manually edit these files as everything should be done from the client. 🖊️️🤖

[Early Access] 2DOM! by Oka’s Games

As a solo indie developer who dreams of working on games full time, I am unable in today’s job climate. If the game is profitable early on, that may result in me converting to part-time or full-time, meaning faster updates and more content! Players have access to a puzzle level editor which you can use to build, test, save and load your levels. 3 free post-release content updates are planned which will add more spawnables, more campaign branches. Early Access price is $4.99, with the launch price being set at $6.99. 🖊️️🤖

For me, I am hoping to see discounts on:

  • Steam Deck OLED

  • Fantasy Life i
  • Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
