    On the one hand, I really liked Returnal and seeing a new game that continues a lot of what made that game play great is exciting. On the other hand, I'm a little disappointed that it appears too similar.

    I think part of what made Returnal so great was the creative story, the beautiful visual style, and the unique take on Rogue-like game play elements. It felt fresh and very well executed. Part of me hoped that Housemarque would take that strong creative vision and move to something more different.

    That said, I'm sure I'll play the heck out of this game when it comes out!

    This was going to be my suggestion also. I figured someone would have already mentioned it. 👍

    I can second this comment. The tool (or collection of tools, really) is great but is still a work in progress. There are quite a few "current" releases with nothing truly being fully stable.

    I've spent countless hours in the past month or two experimenting with different release versions through Docker and I haven't successfully had it up and running doing everything I want it to (like pulling my pinboard.in feed or others daily, not having Chrome fail in the background, etc). I've had fun doing it to be sure, but it's not quite there yet. I really love the full text search (Sonic) for drilling into an archive, and the ability to make subsequent snapshot over time.

    My goal is to have it run silently and dependably on a Synology or old Mac Mini, but that's still a work in progress due mostly to weird bugs.

    Very cool. Checking it out now. Haven’t been on Gemini in a few months but have been meaning to get back. This looks like may give me a reason to visit more regularly
