  • I actually enjoy retro gaming. Earthbound and mother 3 are my favorite games! The professor Layton serie is also great! The thing is, while retro games are a huge source of “free” games, they’re often too hard. I also found myself falling in a rabbit hole with an entire generation of retro games that nobody cares about anymore despite being full of great games : flip phone java games" (j2me). I highly recommend trying them if you want to play games on your phone without being thrown a billion ad and microtransactions. Just play the touchscreen variants and your golden. Some good games are : doom RPG 2 and Wolfenstein RPG, literally any game by digital chocolate.

    thanks a lot for recommandation, sea of stars and pizza tower look 👌! and yeah my machine isn’t capable to run bigger 3d games. Lol.



  • Tried braid and got bored real quick.

    Tried fez and didn’t even continue past the first 30 min

    Tried Undertale, but basically knew the story already from spoilers, and it was kinda boring, uninteresting and too hard.

    Played Crashlands and it was a grindfest that actually made me relieved that I finished the game, only to discover it was planet 1 of 3. 👉Uninstalled.

    Really enjoyed fear and hunger despite being shit at the game and ended up just cheating. (Was still freaking hard 😭)

    Finished and enjoyed Limbo.

    I just want a game with a great story, a gameplay with medium low difficulty that isn’t a grindfest and isn’t too long ( usually caused by the endless grinding).





  • High-tier Xiaomi phones usually have headphones jacks and really good hardware . I don’t know about lineage OS, but there’s a EU roms for Xiaomi phones that get rid of all their useless shit. The weirdest thing is that it’s actually a kinda-official custom ROM.

    nowadays, all the phones are pretty similar in terms of perf, unless you’re into mobile gaming/video editing/AI, it doesn’t matter. A 12GB Ram, 512GB phone is completely future proof. Heck, if there’s ever a desktop mode added on Android, it’s more than enough for 99% of regular computer usage.










  • The dev has 30 years of experience with c++ and a lot of it was on browsers.

    He tried to incorporate rust with the help of “JT”, one of the original rust designers/devs and according to Andreas it didn’t work that well due to the web being too objet oriented or something like that. They both worked together (well, mostly “JT”) to create a new safe programming language called “yakt” that transpile to c++, but the project is currently pretty much dead because nobody is really working on it anymore.
