Are you sure ? Can we trade this if we want to. Idk if I should get it

my configs, the most is what it was after i installed it, only changed things in resolution basically, the 16:10 is one of the things that help the most( there are 3 or 4 pics)

- GIF - Imgur

edit i make some other changes and the game became prettier and stayed with the same fluency, it was pixelated a looooot, it reduced it a bit

Finished "Empress of the Deep".
A game that could have been better.


The hidden object puzzles are bad. The objects cannot be good distinguished.
Regarding other puzzles: hints are not needed. But some puzzles are potentially infuriating.
Do you know the 8-queen chess-puzzle?
Some stuff is really well hidden. A lot has to do with the rather low resolution.
This is an old game.
But luckily the game helps. It tells you that an area is completed and marks it with a golden star.
A big minus of the game is that it is very vague in what possible directions you can travel.

And then the music, well better talk about the sound effects.
A little bit creepy, but it gives a lot of atmosphere.
Oh, about the story. You could see it coming from a kilometer away.

I will tell a little too.

Btw. free game on GOG:

it's also free on Steam, as some nice man mentioned here.
Wow, what an interesting thread!
I played this game and what surprised me the most is that it is completely free. If the developer is giving away a game of this quality for free, then what will they ask money for?
From the description and screenshots, it is difficult to imagine something, there they promise a short nice game in the bullet-hell genre, but in fact they deceive in almost everything. It took me about seven hours to complete because it's basically a top-down metroidvania with lots of places to explore and items and upgrades to collect. And when you run into enemies (sometimes it's just a few wandering enemies at the level, and sometimes it's classic arenas from which there is no way to escape), then the interestingly integrated bullet-hell mechanics begin to work. The patterns are good, you can remember them, it is also quite possible to dodge, the arsenal of countermeasures is wide - weapons can be modified and improved. Big bosses don't let you get bored too. The game is not easy, but it is not difficult for the sake of difficulty, and not difficult because of bad decisions and mechanics, it is logical and the game rewards effort. You can learn to act better in each situation, you can find something while exploring the map and improve your character.

play this, i finished it.

it is a short game and also free.

pretty nice , cozy and also sad.

( althought it is short, i ll never regret playing it)
Thanks for the recommendation! Also finished (literally, you just have to go there), yes, it is very, very short, about ten minutes, but I liked it too. I'm not sure if this story is sad, in a way it definitely is, but maybe I'm too old and it all felt... very realistic and real. Because in reality everything happens like that, I often catch myself thinking that way when I have to wander past places from my childhood. It's just that someone was able to realize it well and tell it in the form of a small video game.

after finishing the game, i searched about it, and it is a true story, the last resident there is that little girl(if i'm not wrong), that is also the one that made those dolls, and yes it make you feel and think about yourself but also about the story, that is why i describe it as sad and also heart warming

who needed her? catch.

Just double-check with who you trade in here, I personally never encountered that since I tried to avoid traders I do not know or have never seen. Sadly you can't see anymore from who you get the feedback which is a big downgrade.

I think this is a more wide subject to start since there is so much to talk about not necessarily bad, but interesting or stuff that can be improved
EDIT: Now I get a response 🤦‍♂️

She was looking for feedback for this site...go see if you can get a response out of our indiegala moderator thats not MIA and lmk how that works out for you, really, I'd appreciate it.

Vic, she was the only person i talked too on any other platform from Gala, I was able too see her online other places as well, till i blocked her because I don't like ghosts on my list.

Doesn't mean shes answering, show me a picture of her actually talking in the chat and I'll just assume she wants me to go the fuck away...and I will.

I can accept being hated online much easier than someone being there...not removing themself from my view in multiple places, yet ignoring me entirely for over a month.

I can't see someone like her not telling me to fuck off if thats what she wanted to do.

Well, that saves me from a ton of shit I really didn't want to do, especially to her. Kind of invasive no matter how you look at it.

And a disappearing act.

Think this time though, I'll go target someone else and get my shit together anyways...its been too long.

Not like i don't have a magic hat to pick a name out of :ROFLMAO:

Timely review, I literally just won this from Feudalife (a rare instance of winning a game I don't already have)

Since when?
IMG_20230520_1220115~2.jpg
I figured the browser tabs, but my desktop windows?

Whats next, are they gonna allow sites to use fucking SendKeysAndCrackers or the FindWindowExxx+ and PostMessageA_ndVirus API?

Ffs 🤦‍♂️

Everytime i open a browser, usually after some major security flaw, theres some new stupid security option that they likely allowed for ages without telling people....that likely had something to do with the security flaw--and it still sets the option to On by default :LOL:

So br00tal trailer!
Oh, actually... here's MORE:
F*B*I* protection disclaimer down

She not a gamer, she needed an accident proof tank with the convenience of a convertible, lenovo was definitely the right choice for her.

As much as I love IBM and they still have a hand in Lenovo products, I'd never buy a laptop period and if I did, it wouldn't be from them :ROFLMAO:

Not anymore...that was way back.

I still have an account from back then but i lost the f'kin password hahaha.


Oh I never used phone with discord and I just registered with email, don't know if something changed recently but if you go to registration page it doesn't ask for a phone Discord
I resetted the password many times because I use it few times and when I do it somethimes I forget the pw.
On this note, I might be going away for awhile, gotta play cat and mouse to find out what happened to a friend.

Out of all the chasing I thought I'd end up doing, this certainly wasn't on my list--but I need to know she left by choice and didn't get hacked herself.

Unfortunately I've been so busy lately I barely have any time to keep up as it is...adding this on the side in what free time I do have--idk how often i'll be dropping in.

I need to brush up my skills and figure out a way to be sure whats what, its honestly easier to outright go on an assault than it is just to dig for info.

Anyone catches wind of our resident feline, or has any emails or such she uses besides the obvious same name everywhere...if your ok with dropping me a PM with the info you have, it might help speed things up.

Just something I gotta do...can't say i'll even find anything, maybe she just wants to be left alone...but I need to try just in case it wasn't by choice.

I've been so ahead in the computer game for so long I barely take anything serious anymore and don't even bother wasting my time with this shit.

So i'm behind the times..its time to catch up.

I'll be on here and there...but PMs are gonna be the way to go, I doubt i'll be keeping up with the general flow much.

Sorry fellas, don't send out a search party for me, i'll be back...eventually.

Cheers my friends 🍻
Don't know what's going on but cheers mate! 🍻 we'll catch soon, I hope!
Thanks, got a nice one: Lady of Dreams ...
np KK, nice win :)

I won 7 or 8 games last month but nothing this month... I probably need to find some nice Irish girl to get some luck.
I don't have ANY girl atm, but...I guess it's my lucky month, all of a sudden 🤷‍♂️

Luck
Irish
Girlfriend

Was that a shot at me? :LOL:

Believe me, I'd like to hunt down pos too...but I honestly think I have a good idea why they left, its just a guess though and its not my place to go spilling our private convos or my theories about someone I consider a good person in public without being sure.

Like I said about luck, they can always drop in and post one word to put everyone at ease if they want...but thats a choice.
