Escape Velocity: Override is getting remade as Cosmic Frontier: Override via crowdfunding. The development for this is going slowly, but I am super excited for it to come out! I have many great memories playing Ambrosia SW games and reading the forums. One cool thing about their games was their support for content creation with drag and drop plugins that you could download from their official site.
There is also still a community for Avara with Avara Online

It is the sequel to Sim Tower, but had to go with another title due to not being published by Maxis.

The app is leading me to build healthier training habits. I never really took warm ups, cool downs, stretching seriously and the instructors are pushing me to keep up with those.
I am making sure to not burn myself out by not riding every day, which has also led to me taking some yoga and strength courses. While not as great as the cycling courses, they are keeping me active while resting from cycling.
I also am trying to not compete against the leaderboard. It was mildly demoralizing to see myself in the lower half of 50k riders. Instead, I shifted my mindset to compete against myself. One caveat is that I try to listen to my body and push myself on days when it agrees.

As someone who greatly enjoyed collecting things on Animal Crossing, the collecting and hunting in Dinkum exceeded my expectations. My only complaint is that the human villagers are very odd and off putting. I am glad to see that the game is receiving support still! +1 to the recommendation.

I think this is great, as long as the content inside doesn't get modified. I prefer to keep things organized and this seems a lot less hamfisted than deleting the whole post, as long as it is appropriate and follows general rules.

Some Kind of Monster
Most bands go through some forms of conflict, especially if they have existed for many years. Some Kind of Monster was filmed to show Metallica making a new album. Instead they got the singer going to rehab, the bassist quitting the band, producer stepping in as a band member, and a "Performance Enhancement Coach" (basically a therapist for professional environments.)
