This is really cool that it's still running (look at the version number!).

I tried really hard not to put every single Sierra game that marked my childhood but only the most important ones, it doesn't mean they were the best games of all time, just that they shaped me the most.

9 game covers showcasing Space Quest 1, Hero's Quest aka Quest For Glory 1, King's Quest 4, Police Quest 2, Phantasmagoria, Doom, Descent, Half Life and World of Warcraft

I wish the US-Can economy wasn't so messed up right now cause shipping this here would be insane, but if anyone is in the US and a fan of pixel art, this is a steal, consider supporting and if not just liking makes a big difference!

New indie game release today! I'm not saying it's spicy, but it was banned by 47 countries for a while (*might be inaccurate retelling of what actually happened)

So only 4% of people that have game pass use more than 5 hours a month? They made that statement thinking it would calm people down but it only made it look like they're bleeding users and desperate for engagement. *Laughs in Linux*

This is an amazing demake, even if you don't want to play the whole game, get it so you can just walk around for a while, it's great to experience one of the best selling Sierra games "what if" it had been EGA

From DOS (Space Quest was my very first game) to Windows 10 before migrating to Linux. I've been using Linux Mint on my old computer turned into a media and game center for my tv, and CachyOS for my main gaming computer. It's been liberating and made me fall in love with computers again.

Tikanjiah @tikanjiah.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

This came out in my mid teens and the fact that Canada banned the game for a few months before it released (and changed their mind once they saw the final product) only made it more enticing, I had to get my parents to buy it for me because they needed parental consent for anyone under 18.

Did you know that in Space Quest 1 if you stand below the acid pool, you can drink from it, and... perish. Cool animation. I didn't know this till today because if you just type 'drink' when you stand to the left of the pool the game just gives you the generic 'That does not compute.' #spacequest

Why I mostly play retro games: -AI? Nope -DRM? Mostly nope (a few exceptions for online games but things like Denuvo absolutely not) -Publisher comes from an oppressive country? Nope -Publisher has 6 sub companies to hide the fact that the main money comes from an oppressive country? Nope

I was today years old when I learned that AI is getting to the point where it can break encryption, guess who you are online with almost no effort (compared to humans) and break VPN privacy by analyzing packets. Do we really need more reasons why AI is bad? 😂

I've been on Linux full time for more than two years now and chuckle at the little things that remind me of Windows, like a tutorial article on how to get a VPN working was about 2 pages worth of scrolling for Windows and less than a few lines for Linux Mint. I don't miss it.
