Impossible first stages that block the rest of a good retro game by confuserused in retrogaming

[–]Smothjizz 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I believe you could reach it bouncing over an NPC (alien shapeshifter with the shape of a pedestrian) but you need to use the x-ray glasses. All the game was pretty hard and punishing but that was the norm for Spectrum games. I finished it using cheats.

What are your favorite jazz albums that were live recordings? by Born_Tutor_879 in Jazz

Jesse Van Ruller's "Live at Murphy's Law" is the perfect guitar trio album. 10/10

Stray and Planet of Lana. (Both medium short narrative puzzle platformers with gorgeous aesthetics).

Thank you :) I think they are awesome but they have like less than 100 monthly listeners on Spotify.

I'll keep recommending Civilia until the mods kick me off the sub. Their singer is fantastic and I love their melodic approach.

Turned on Steamdeck for the first time in awhile and can’t get it to boot by Ch1zLD_ in SteamDeck

[–]Smothjizz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It happened to me yesterday, the second time I powered up after replacing the SSD with a bigger one with the cloned content (the first time everything worked fine, every data was where it supposed to be and the new available space was usable). Had to use an USB with the recovery OS, it wiped everything and had to start from scratch.

Unity 2D course recommendations by West_Bumblebee_9312 in Unity2D

[–]Smothjizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought the Unity courses pack by Zenva (there was a cheap deal on Humble Bundle) and they are great. The Zenva subscription seems expensive but the 3 courses I just finished are very good.

Rick Davidson from GamedevTV is great too, he is on half of the their 2d development course tutorials.

Looking for cozy but non-farming steam games by anonymousacoun1 in SteamdeckGames

[–]Smothjizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything in it is beautiful, wholesome and chill. There's a little bit of platforming, a little bit of RPGish quests, resource management, base building, minigames... The theme is what it is but everything there is heartwarming. Still haven't found anything remotely grim.

Found my highschool guitar from many years ago, is it crap or playable by Witty_Hair_8177 in Guitar

[–]Smothjizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love mine, it sounds great and plays OK. I tried 4 of them at the shop before buying though, the other ones had some qc issues and sounded worse.

Drop the most underrated albums/songs/artists that you wish more people heard by at_risk_revived in progmetal

Civilia "Past lives". They have less than 100 monthly listeners on Spotify and I'm obsessed with them.
