The Koreans invade the United States, and you are a freedom fighter who hides behind invulnerable cover in an on-rails playable cutscene.
alt-F4 as soon as I was placed in a “home base” which forced me to RP-walk everywhere. Inexcusable.

An underclass punk, returning from a ten month flight from the country, happens upon a suicide that reveals that she is part of a larger picture.
The lead actor is particularly good, as is all the acting. The story is poor in a number of places, and it is particularly jarring to have literal-faggotry forced into it. I don’t mind there happening to be gay characters, but when they’re gay characters being gay because gayness yay gay gay as opposed to just being people who happen to be gay, it’s so obvious and so insulting as to taint the whole fucking show.
I’ll flag this as liked and lightly-recommended. It’s really not all that awful, but it rubs me the wrong way. It’s like girly science fiction drama-whatever.

A simple volume icon for your taskbar’s tray.
Works great, no dependencies for me, and does more than what I want.
I got this working, because fbpanel‘s volume plugin decided to not show up again.

A bog-standard 4X space game, but with a tiny font.
Overwhelming, and with an annoying interface.

A semi-roguelike tower defence-ish game.
Utterly impossible. Doesn’t make a lick of sense. Unlimited waves of stuff, for some reason. Can’t build enough, the resource limitations are obscene.

So cute! Whenever I play a game with a little fox type thing, I will always think of Okami – (2006 game).
I ended up getting stuck at the winter/summer level, trying to go east with the spirit. I guess I’m the first person to ever play this, ever.

An oldschool music player.
Has potential, but is missing critical features and its development appears to have ceased. Only good for playing ASMA (Atar) .mus, .str, and .wds files.
