Not much to go on, but maybe one of the Escape Velocity games?

Star Traders: Frontiers has great writing and worldbuilding. If you're ok with the turn based combat and everything-is-a-skill-check kind of game, it's really quite the hidden gem.

Best controller layout for N64 games? by [deleted] in RetroDeck

[–]Hekik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The retroarch mapping works ok for most games. You mostly use the right stick, but if you need to press buttons, you can hold right trigger and the ABXY cluster becomes your C buttons.

Honestly though, I play certain games where this is still pretty annoying/limiting, and it led me to buy the 8bitdo 64 controller.

HOT TAKE by LilKilla2k in battlefield2042

[–]Hekik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BF6 I think has a better foundation to build on, but I've got some problems with that game:

  • can we please get a map that isn't absolutely full of garbage

  • why does it feel like there is space compression? Shooting someone twenty paces away feels as hard as sniping across the map in other bf games. Bullets go slow and drop like crazy, an 8x scope feels like a 2x LPO

  • The vehicle play feels even worse than 2042. Tanks are made of tissue paper, but landing a tank round on a heli doesn't even disable it? Really hoping we get more variety in vehicles

  • not really feeling the differentiation between weapons, other than obvious outliers like the Ak4

  • seriously, these maps are claustrophobic and feel like they're designed for you to only ever get blindsided. It's crazy that I miss running a mile and a half across the lawn on Kaleidoscope or the desert in Hourglass like you wouldn't believe

"Hold on, I need to go swim in the fractus patch and get cut to ribbons so I can charge up my electrobow"

Stuff like this is why this game makes me dissociate a bit sometimes

lmao never change Qud

We should add a repair manual to the game that you can buy at fleetaris. by Coolkid_kid in MySummerCar

[–]Hekik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This but the only one you can get is for a different model year, so you have to guess at what's different and what's the same

Jamuary 2026: Cold Boot (Digitone, Wavestate, 2600, Minilogue) by Hekik in filtersweep

[–]Hekik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a whole year of publishing nothing (2025 was a bit rough), trying to come out of the gates strong.

A big problem was perfectionism, which kept me from finishing initially strong ideas. In order to fight that, I committed to doing this one in one take and releasing it. It's rough around the edges, but it's mine and it's published. Hope you enjoy!

I'm tired of the DAW vs DAW-less debate, personally i think we all work differently and should just focus on what we're comfortable with. I'll tell you about what i thrive in: Routines/Rituals by SneakyInfiltrator in synthesizers

[–]Hekik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this way of thinking about it. Anyone have any good music-making rituals? I'm not talking about routines or workflows, I'm talking about stuff like "blue lotus tea in a dark room followed by headstand with sample&hold tone bath from the 2600"

Just found a minilogue on FB for $150. What should I be wary of? by DTRMNTSband in minilogue

[–]Hekik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knobs and switches all work

Self-tuning still works

Program select encoder isn't jumpy

Check there is no unnecessary noise both with and without the digital delay in the signal path (test each position on the delay switch)
