You’re welcome! I’ve played it a bunch, it’s essentially FTL 1.5 and extremely well made. Hope you have fun playing it!
In case you’re running on Linux, be warned that you might have to add a SELinux exception. Hit me up if that’s the case, I’ll try to find the commands.
- Comment on Not the worst offender 1 day ago:
Unpopular opinion: most foods are better to eat with a spoon (as long as you don’t have to cut them, e.g. steak).
- Comment on One-handed games? 1 day ago:
Especially with the Multiverse mod!
(though it’s much harder to install on Linux than it has any right to be)

Afaik native speakers make such mistakes more often, since they learned far more of the language by hearing than by reading

- Comment on Anon fixes their games 2 weeks ago:
I’m not sure I agree. Just like Motion Blur, DoF is a real phenomenon, and we notice when it’s absent. There are lots of good artistic reasons to use it.
But just like Motion Blur, it’s really hard and costly to implement properly. Unless you have close-to-perfect eye tracking, it will be annoying because of what you describe. So until we’ve got that working well, having no DoF is much better.
- Comment on Anon fixes their games 2 weeks ago:
Not in the same way. Our eyes have lower resolution away from the center, but that’s not what’s causing DoF effects. You’re still missing the actual DoF.
- Comment on Anon fixes their games 2 weeks ago:
No, your eyes can’t do it on a screen. The effect is physically caused by the different distances of two objects, but the screen is always the same distance from you.

- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 2 weeks ago:
The answer is disappointingly simple: emotional satisfaction.
For decades, these people have been told that they are incredibly generous towards their allies, and that they get nothing in return. That their allies are abusing their relationships. Of course this is false, but they’ve been told so every day.
Now they get to abuse their “abusers” right back.

All of them are pretty great! I’ve played a bunch of Shenzhen/IO, and it taught me a lot about low-level programming.

Rumor has it that they got the same guy to come back to design the Recluse for Nightreign:
- Comment on At what point in the relationship should I move in with my girlfriend? 3 weeks ago:
This may be good advice if your goal is to keep your relationship as long as possible, but that shouldn’t be your goal. It should be to be happy.

Yeah, it just doesn’t make sense!
