Actually, you can still get the full Steam game for free at https://www.sega60th.com/register
I’ve only actually played the first game, but as I understand it, NiGHTS is a high-ranking Nightmaren just like the monstrous bosses they fight. NiGHTS happens to be powerful enough to be independent. Whenever the other Nightmaren mug a dreaming visitor, if the visitor keeps hold of one of their Ideyas, NiGHTS finds it more fun to help the visitor wreck everything instead.
Edit: corrected NiGHTS to they/them pronouns (and while I’m here, you can still get the Steam version of NiGHTS for free)
would’ve been fun if the local magazines were somewhat more active.
I originally chose Kbin/Mbin over Lemmy because of the added support for Mastodon-like posts, but it’s still suffers from wonky early adopter stuff. I still rather like Mbin’s interface more than Lemmy’s defaults, though Lemmy’s support for third party front ends is very cool. Whichever way you go, I’m happy that Mbin and Lemmy have access to all the same content. Mbin could grow more if some of a magazine’s custom CSS could federate to other instances, or if it supported bots like Lemmy.
Oh dang, I’m gonna have to look into PieFed, though. That looks good! I’d like to see how my community looks, but I think a registered piefed.social user has to do this community lookup for federation to begin.

It’s close, but I give it to Ocarina of Time. Both were genre-advancing technological achievements of 3D and cinematics. Neither of them are the best in their series, with better games before and after these. But Ocarina of Time is more fun in combat and in glitches, so it’s better.
The better debate is what’s better: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past or Super Metroid. Both, of course!
August 7 is the deadline. The problem is my state, Ohio. By law, the Democrats must nominate someone in 17 days or be left off the ballot. It’s way too fast for a special primary election.
This is certainly going to face legal challenges in red states, too. The orange one will probably run unopposed in states like Florida.

Fascists should be afraid to show their faces in public, but this particular fascist needs to live long enough to spend time in prison.
Apparently people died there today. That’s probably bad. Don’t just assume the dead were worthless fascists. I hope it wasn’t some innocent media person covering the event for their local news or something.
no English localization
That’s a shame. I loved Working Designs’s voice acting in the Sega CD version. They even added voiceovers to lines that weren’t voiced in the Japanese version. I wonder who even owns the rights to that localization nowadays.
Ooh, nice! I haven’t heard of Ventoy before. I’m gonna have to try carrying Hiren’s BootCD PE, Linux Mint, and Batocera all bootable on the same flash drive in my pocket.
Come to Mbin! We have active developers!
Cool! Thanks for the Floating Is Fun shout out! I wish that CSS would federate to other instances, even if it’s just a header image like Lemmy communities get. You Lemmy users can still use interfaces like Photon and Voyager, and it looks great on those.
As for me, I like these ones: !wordle@lemmy.world - I comment my puzzle results in there everyday !news@beehaw.org - Good reliable world news that covers important events !usnews@beehaw.org - I’m American and this is better than most of our news outlets !comicstrips@lemmy.world - Good single-serving comics in my feed !vgmusic@lemmy.world - Sometimes I throw video game music at them @MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz - Not a community, but I end up following MentalEdge to a lot of the communities they frequent
True, it’s not that easy to find the good ones. Try browsing around RetroAchievement’s hubs, click a category you’re interested in, and then sort by “most players”. The popular games there might surprise you.
Losing interest? How about some shorter games that are super high quality all the way through?
So, what kinds of games do you normally play? We can help you more if we know where you’re coming from.
I thought Soft Garden’s boss Jackle was a good fight. He tries to zone you out by throwing tarot cards at you, and it’s satisfying to slip through his cards and hit him.
I tried writing alt text with the image on this post on August 9, and I thought it wasn’t working. On mine and other Kbin instances, alt text does load but Firefox just doesn’t show it when I mouseover. In the page’s source, it’s an “alt” argument instead of a “title” argument, and Firefox users can’t see alt text if the image loads successfully. It would work better if Kbin allowed users to input title text instead of alt text.
I didn’t notice until just now, but that post’s alt text works perfectly on Mastodon! It simply duplicates the alt text into the title text and I can read it when I mouseover the image.
That leaves Lemmy which seems to have no alt text support at all. I’ve inspected the page and my alt text simply doesn’t federate to Lemmy. But Lemmy apparently has working spoiler tags and Lemmy users are considering using that to describe images. The Lemmy spoiler tags don’t work anywhere else, though.
Everywhere but Lemmy will just render this as regular text. My Wordle-playing friends would be sad.
Nice work! If Kbin ever gets a mascot, someone will have to draw it flying with balloons so I can make it @FloatingIsFun 's new icon.
I’m a Reddit refugee and I’ve been moving all the pictures and videos from my old niche subreddit to my new niche Kbin magazine. I’m afraid Reddit will collapse, and the collection of floaty things I’ve been building up will become lost media if it’s not reposted somewhere else. I like the Fediverse’s mission and I want to see how the Fediverse develops. Also, I want to have a complete and functional artsy magazine on Kbin to show the others back on Reddit that it can be done well.
For the past couple days, some of my posts have been making Fedia’s home page and apparently other instances’ home pages too. It’s good to be seen, but I’m afraid I’m getting more attention than I actually deserve. I like seeing art of fantasy worlds and interactions, and I’m not alone in that. But, I’m afraid I’m corrupting your feeds with stuff you aren’t looking for, just because I’m doing it first.
Here in Ohio, FuncoLand and Electronics Boutique were the national game store chains in town until GameStop bought them both and took over their stores. Funco was known for their lists of trade-in values in magazines in the days before VGPC. Now it’s come full circle and GameStop is turning some stores into the 90s FuncoLand stores they replaced.
