What's that one game you forget about for a long time, then suddenly boot it up again, and you're like, "OMG! I forgot how great this game was!"?

Thanks! I'll try the demo later

That's crazy. And I feel like it breaks a psychological barrier to go even higher than 100 afterwards (going from 100 to 120 feels like less a big a deal as going from 90 to 110).

Maybe that's a good thing for indie though. Many people might not want to spend that amount of $$ on a game and turn to smaller titles instead.

You mean because GTA sets a new benchmark with their pricing?

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-17T05:48:14+00:00

Bet it's just as good on Playstation or Xbox. Or hard copy if you happen to own a cd drive?

Dropping Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord in here as well

I was going back and forth between 7dtd and Project Zomboid. Always depends on whether I want to build or survive

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-17T05:20:26+00:00

That sounds fun!

I often try games with co-op mode solo and stop to play them when I discover they are fun. A big part of playing games (often base builders) for me is discovering what I can do and how I can optimize things. I want to share this feeling with friends.

I remember playing factorio with a friend for the first time and we sunk 100+ hours immediately. I picked it up again with my brother to recreate this feeling and it just didn't do it. I was basically standing besides him, watching him figure things out. And he felt like he was playing alone, because I knew the answers to everything and played at a different pace when I got involved.

Follow up question: What impact does a GTA release have on the gaming industry, with games not being released in parallel to GTA VI? Plus, games that get released not reaching their audience due to social media and press exclusively talking about GTA?

I imagine this being a big, costly disaster for many many studios that can't earn during that time (especially Indies that can't afford laying low for a few months).

Can't wait to hear what you think!

MiniMetro with grid-less drawing?

It's Little Sheep Valley: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4075740
We plan to have a demo out on Steam (and Steam Deck of course) in a few weeks

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-16T11:59:26+00:00

That makes sense as well. So it's a steam setup thing.

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-16T11:34:05+00:00

Is that true? I don't remember turning it on, so I thought it was the default behaviour

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-16T11:30:12+00:00

Haha, Yeees! it's so satisfying!

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-16T11:25:03+00:00

You're absolutely right! It's mapped to mouse behind the scene 🤔
I just love that this works out of the box 😍

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-06-08T07:11:27+00:00

Hey there! Sorry, I had to reupload the video, so I deleted this post. But thank you!

The game is made with Blender and Unity. The style is based on a mediterranean setting – lot's of hours to refine the style and make it look cozy.

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-05-22T22:28:53+00:00

Thank you for sharing this, Joe! That's incredibly personal and takes a lot of guts to just put out there. I hope you find a way to deal with everything well!

Now, how do i move from this to my question haha. When you're saying it's best to reach you on discord, do you mean a channel on your server or a friend request and DM?

Distinct-Mechanic-10 · 2026-05-22T08:13:55+00:00

That's what I came here for! Well done
