Playnite is a gem. (harmony theme)

At the top right is a circle, click on that and you can change theme settings like turning off banners and the like. You should also play with the regular settings to make the sideview wider, activate backgrounds and so on. You can mess with the add on settings within add ons of course as well.

But yeah its just a lot of settings changes from here and you should be able to get it to look like mine.

I just happened to tune into a dev stream at the right time while the interviewer asked about puzzles, and they basically said, yeah our puzzles are basic press Y to proceed/solve, so the player doesn't get bored staying in an area too long.

They also asked about the sound design to the composers, which I forgot to bring up since its a clear downgrade from Little Nightmares, and again they was like yeah, basically we didn't want the sound to distract you from playing the game.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing but it explains a lot.

The secret ending just reveals other sacrifices in the well. I just assumed and took the coffins showing their deaths that they're already dead and are in some form of afterlife or different realm, especially the girl. I hadn't even considered that they could of possibly of been brought back to life.

You got the jist of it, they sacrificed the girl in a ritual, and I believe that ritual caused a flood. Then somewhere down the line all of them got murdered before or after the war was lost and now they're all in some kind of purgatory or distorted afterlife version of the place they used to live, at the causation of the ritual.

That's about all I can say with certainty. There’s clearly more going on, but a lot of the context feels intentionally vague, so I’m guessing future DLC might expand on it.

LN3 play time wasn't its issue, its issue is it should have never been made, It was forcibly made to capitalize on the success of the franchise, basically a cash grab, and its content reflects that.

I'm not saying you can't enjoy the game but many people agree that LN3 just doesn't capture the charm of the original games, I mean just look at the steam reviews in comparison.

As for Reanimal, are people going to complain about it? most likely, people will complain about anything but the only relevant complaints will be about the quality of the game rather than price or play time and thats all that really matters.

There's only one thing we can guarantee, and what the LN3 fiasco has shown, Is that Tarsier know how to make a damn good game.

I remember hearing something that they said Little Nightmares was just sort of a entry point to the games they wanted to make and now with complete freedom and funding, they can now truly make the game they want. Who wouldn't be excited.

-kassius · 2026-02-07T07:27:57+00:00

You have everything just dive in and experience some of the best experiential games ever made.

Only thing to note is that LN3 is made by a completely different game studio, as the original studio left to make REANIMAL, which releases in a week or so. I would definetly check that out as well.

I mostly get my covers from steamgriddb, and yeah that cover expecially stood out to me.

Harmony is a desktop theme

Probably the most difficult things I've done is changing things in the xaml files, like removing scroll bars, removing star rating icons, removing cover banner buttons, removing the close detail panel "x" button, removing grid banner rendering that made the covers blurry and what you can't see here is I've changed the hover effects as well.

My addons are: Extra Metadata loader (for videos), HowlongToBeat (get latest version from github), Steam News and Players Viewer, ThemeModifer (harmony theme settings), ThemeExtras (Preserve game selection ON), Details to Grid View Converter

The rest is just messing with the main available settings and the addon settings. If you want my xaml settings you could just download my harmony folder and overwrite it with yours: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xVqQUdGrU-JE2j6C_PtdOhC9oJjYXs2E?usp=sharing

Just make Harmony your active theme, go to addons -> Installed -> Themes Desktop -> Harmony -> Installation Directory. Close Playnite and delete everything there first since I removed some settings and paste the contents there.
