We had Shufflepuck Cafe on our Macintosh Plus. Loved that game, but also infuriating

Was pong on the Telstar, along with Tennis and i think two more similar super basic games? That’s what we had
Holy smokes, I forgot all about that thing! Seeing a picture of it brought out some ancient archived memories
I loved this game! I’d send swarms of armored cars against my brother.
Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey. I only discovered it fairly recently and it has already become my go-to read whenever I’m looking for some peace and simple natural spirituality with a generous side of denouncing the absurdity of modern culture and overaggressive “progress” and development.
Boy, the trees are really sneezing today.
Every time I see the little “new content” blip next to someone I’ve subscribed to and it ends up being a short, I feel cheated.
I’m still on my Blizzard boycott that started with the Blitzchung thing. Family and friends have tried to get me to drop it to play with them a few times, but a boycott doesn’t seem like it has much purpose (or effect) if you just drop it after a while when nothing has changed.
I’m always glad when I see someone recommend Night in the Woods. It took me to a place no other game has.
Relatively recent arrival to Reddit, but this was the nudge I needed to really start diving into the Fediverse (via Lemmy). It’s been a ton of fun.
Right, I was actually hoping it would go through so I could potentially lift my boycott of ActiBlizz that I started during the Blitzchung incident and only solidified as more information came out about the horrible things going on at Blizzard with some of their employees. Weirdly enough, I really want to play Heroes of the Storm again.
I was surprised to see your post as the only result doing a find for Angband in this thread. I’ve played it casually for decades and never beaten it. Got a level 50 dwarf priest right now that I’ve been puttering around with, not really sure what to do in order to prepare for Morgoth, as I’ve never encountered him before.
I haven’t loved the direction of DCSS in recent years as it seems like there’s been a huge focus on removing things for being “not interesting”, but it seems like it really boils down to “not interesting for veterans who are interested in a low turn count run through the game”. And I’ll never forgive them for removing the chance to meet up with friendly angels in the Abyss if you’re a TSO follower. Apparently they’re always hostile now? That was such a cool touch, and I struggle to understand why its’ better to take away those neat little potential experiences. Ah well, still a fun game to play now and then.
Part of me wonders if this is just me getting older and well into the “back in my day” stage of life when I worry that things are getting significantly worse. But it really feels like this poor country is in a serious backward arc and I’m genuinely worried for my kids.
I love this so much. I need to break out one of those gameboy studio tools and take a crack at a game of my own.
Man, I miss the golden age of point-and-click adventure games. My brothers and I played through so many together. PC Speaker version of the MI1 soundtrack for maximum nostalgia: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=_cfPw3IL1sk
