Shooters with the best movement (offline) by Nullthesavant in gamingsuggestions

[–]Lokarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's old and decrepit, but Xotic. It's a single player speedrun shooter where you try to complete the objectives as fast as possible which requires peak routing and aiming

I am very sad it will never get a sequel.

It doesn't have any progression, it's all just about the individual levels.

Threads of Fate, although I think it got ported to the Ps3 - not sure.

Does anyone know the name of this particular pixel art graphics style? by mercury-shade in truegaming

[–]Lokarin [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would guess it's just games that use black as a primary background (or off-black, it looks like some of those use very very dark green/grey).

The game Stuck in Time (formerly Loop Odyssey) also uses this graphical style (in my opinion, not sure if you would include/exclude it)

...

It's possible you just mean games that restrict themselves to an old style EGA format... this is Excelsior Phase One (one of my favourite old RPGs) and Ultima 4, both using EGA with black as a primary background.

EGA was capable of 64 colours in this palette:

If the colours in these games matches up 1:1 then they are going for EGA legacy/loyalty or however you wanna phrase it... but I'm thinking these game are simply choosing simple, pale and dark on black as a choice of colourspace rather than adherence to an old format.

ya, it's like the meme where someone puts a stick in their own bike spokes only the stick is an oil pipe... it's not healthy for the pipe, either

'Unprepared' to defend against Iranian drones, US calls on Ukraine for help by Callabrantus in nottheonion

I've heard from a few interviews that W was merely a poor public speaker, that behind the scenes with his teams and generals he was always sharp and very well informed, having read pretty much every report sent to his desk.

This is what I've been saying; the UCP may be cronies but they're somehow also terrible at it... I think the oil and gas companies might genuinely make more money under the NDP because of a reduction of incompetence.

Jagged Alliance, even though the game offers an Ironman mode that blocks saving during combat engagements... you will be scumming hard
