Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

Spelunky. My Vita was basically a Spelunky machine.

Cave story the og ... man what a game

Off the top of my head:

  • Against the Storm - I find the loop of those first 30-40 minutes of city building very satisfying.
  • Ultimate General Series - I love the land battles, it scratches that gun powder Total War itch.
  • Mount & Blade Series - Playing the Viking Conquest expansion while watching or listening to the Last Kingdom (Saxon Stories) might be one of my favourite gaming memories.
  • Sea of Stars - Reminds me of Golden Sun. And the soundtrack is just fantastic.

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (ASCII mode) and Neofeud hold a special place in my heart

Binding of Isaac. When it finally came out on the switch, I played it more than Breath of the Wild.

I played it to completion. Then Rebirth came out and I played it to completion (barring The Lost, because come on). I only recently picked up Repentance and I'm already another 200 hours in.

❤️, or perhaps I should say ❤️🤍🤍💙💙🖤💔

Inscryption

You are in a weird cabin in the middle of the woods playing a card game with your fate on the line. Some of your cards are talking to you and comment on how you play.

Then things get weird.

For those that like Inscryption, honorable mention for Hand of Fate 1 & 2

The Oregon Trail, Pong, Myst, Doom, Worms, Transport Tycoon, Tetris...

I played A Short Hike recently, and I was transported. It's a painterly little adventure in which you walk and glide your way through an archipelago, meeting people and solving small puzzles, mostly around platforming. It's amazingly soothing. First game my wife actually enjoys too, and she's not into games at all.

Does STALKER count? I love the atmosphere of the games.

If not I've sunk a lot of time in Mini Metro

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Hotline Miami. Would appreciate recommendations of similiar games.

Several hundred hours of Oxygen not included...
