It sounds interesting to me. Whether or not I would play it myself depends on knowing more or playing a demo since it’s not the type of game I usually play, but if someone I know or one of the few streamers I follow was into it I would definitely be interested to watch.
I think it’s important to make the game you want to make and trust your vision. It looks good so far and I’m following you on Steam now to keep an eye on it. Good luck!

Stop that. If you’re feeding them then you undermine the entire effort. Stop it.

3D platformer with some interesting mechanics and boss fights. Enjoying it so far. There are some mild collectathon elements, but nothing tedious. I like the art style a lot.

This is what I do too. If there is something really stuck on then you can put it back on the stove and add a little water which will sizzle and lift the rest up with minimal scraping.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. In case anyone sees this and is wondering, I picked up Assetto Corsa. The price was right and it looks like what I’m looking for, for now.
I also will keep an eye on BallisticNG and a few others.
Shout out to the kind Lemming who donated their spare key for Garfield Kart - Furious Racing to me. I’ll leave them unnamed in case they don’t want the attention. I’ve been playing and enjoying it!

Get comfortable talking to yourself / thinking out loud. You’re already thinking thoughts when you game, you just need to externalize them.

They have survived just fine without outside help, and acted hostile towards most attempts from outsiders to do so. They don’t need or want our help. They don’t need our technology.
Visiting North Sentinel Island is prohibited by the Indian government. Idiots still do it anyways and usually end up killed.
Leave them alone. They are living their best lives already. No need to interfere. No need to drag them into the misery of the modern world.

Thanks for having a sense of humour about the meme. I’m also a desk jockey. Be sure to stretch frequently and take care of your back! The tension has a way of sneaking up.

It’s not too late to edit your post and welcome answers from women, while specifying which topics you don’t want included.

You may be surprised to learn that women can have interests besides house fix up and makeup. Men can also be interested in those channels. Why not specify that you don’t want those types of recommendations, rather than ignoring answers from women entirely?
- Comment on Hesitating getting a Switch 2 (1st game console in 15 years)... 2 months ago:
So this is what I’ve been doing, but I always end up spending hours configuring the emulators, the shaders, everything… and then not playing that much! That’s why I was talking about the “plug and play” nature of game consoles (even though it’s less true now that you have to create an account and stuff like that).
Simple solution: don’t do that. Are you trying to game with your family, or force them to watch you tinker? I’ve encountered ONE game where I had to adjust a setting in the emulator to make it playable. And occasionally adjust input mapping when it gets wonky or doesn’t handle the way I want, usually N64 emulation because of those pesky C buttons. Never had a problem with Steam games using an Xbox controller or third party controller (8BitDo Ultimate 2C with hall effect sticks and triggers, $30). They are plug and play.
As for PC games, I never have the proper hardware to play in good conditions.
Well, not yet you haven’t. But you’re prepared to drop $700 on a Switch 2? And $100 per game? You can get a laptop or pre-built PC for the same or less that’s capable of playing most games. Some newer games with intense graphics will have high demands for specs, you might have to turn down graphics quality for those, but there are thousands of games that can run on a bare minimum consumer-grade computer.
Again, the “plug and play” nature of game consoles is appealing. A game you buy for a given console is working fine out of the box.
Every one of my Steam games is working fine out of the box. You said you like to tinker, but you also don’t want to tinker. Wouldn’t you prefer to have the option? Besides that, PC gaming is virtually plug and play. Install Steam. Plug in a controller. Plug HDMI into the TV. Same number of steps to connect the Switch 2 to a TV.
I really think you should do more research on PC gaming before writing it off, and especially before giving Nintendo more money.
