I looooved Simon The Sorcerer so much as a child! One of my favourite point and click adventures.

I find it super fun! Basically even without programming the behaviours the game is very playable but the programming aspect is a big part of the game and makes it really fun. I feel like the game has kind of gone under the radar and deserves a lot more attention.
Desynced kind of feels like Factorio but without the belts. So instead of placing belts and splitters and such you define behaviours for your units and buildings. Another plus is that it runs quite well on the Steamdeck!
Ah that clarifies a lot actually. I do miss the days where I'd go to a store and buy a physical copy of a game. Then again, they do end up taking up (physical) space of course.
Not sure how it works nowadays, actually! As a child I would borrow PC and PlayStation games from the library. They were physical copies of course. But with Steam keys and all I'm not sure!
Oh this sounds super interesting. Reminds me of Desynced! Added it to my wishlist.
So the game was abandoned? That's too bad! I was considering buying it once it got more features (since it was still in early access)but wasn't 100% sure yet. I ended up getting Foundry at the time but still wanted to try Techtonica at some point.
Oh so you can't buy the physical copy of game for Switch 2? That's lame.
It looks super fun to play in co-op!
How often do they generally release major updates for the game? I almost bought it at (EA) launch but I think this kind of game might be the most fun (to me) if I play the full release, or would you say early access has plenty of content right now? I'll still wait at least until co-op is out. Played Elden Ring with my husband using the co-op mod and really loved it. Watched the gameplay videos of this one and it looks really good.
I think this could be a really nice addition! I wonder if they'll also simulate passengers getting on/off the bus?
I was going to say exactly this. When I have to take a break from exercising and need to get back to it it's not easy, but I remind myself of all the benefits that come with exercising and how much better it made me feel and that gives me the motivation to get started again. The easiest way for me to force myself to exercise on a day I really don't feel motivated to do it (or I've been out of it for a while) is by putting on my sport outfit and readying whatever I need for my exercises, telling myself I can still change my mind and not do it whenever I want. But by the time I got changed and everything is ready I think "I might as well just do it".
And it just really takes that one time to fully remind myself of how good it feels afterwards and it gives me the motivation to keep going. Sometimes I'll end up enjoying it so much I can't wait for my next exercise session and no, it's not the actual exercising myself I enjoy, but how I feel afterwards.
I've seen this pop up on websites a lot lately. Usually it takes a few seconds to load the website but there have been occasions where it seemed to hang as it was stuck on that screen for minutes and I ended up closing my browser tab because the website just wouldn't load.
Is this a (known) issue or is it intended to be like this?
