Aywren reviews Flufftopia: Fluffmazing Edition—cute piggy-bank clicker town-building that runs fine on Steam Deck (tiny UI caveats), then quietly hints at a clever, darker twist and multiple endings. Syp talks about hitting an “ebb” in LOTRO—logging in more from duty than excitement—so he’s keeping play light until the spark returns, while enjoying touches like adorable elephants and the Grey CrazyKinux gets parachuted into a Fallout TTRPG set in a brutal Boston winter and rolls up a Mister Handy with a sketchy “security update,” joining a Vault pedicurist, scavenger, and lucid ghoul. Krista celebrates Starsand Island hitting Steam Early Access/Xbox Preview, pitching its cozy life-sim mix of farming, fishing, animal care, exploration, romance, and island mysteries—with community-sh Pixel One vents about a live-service edge case: a paid character transfer token fails, support follows the script, then closes the ticket as “resolved” anyway—KPI theater over fixing the block. RPG Codex flags that Sector Unknown is out, slotting it into their rapid-fire headline stream of RPG releases and announcements for anyone tracking what’s newly shipping. Wilhelm digs into No Man’s Sky Update 6.2 “Remnant,” where the Colossus exocraft gets serious customization plus scrap-world industrial waste collecting and Waste Processing Plants to toot at. Ghastly’s fed up with GOG’s generative-AI promo stance and points to DRM-free alternatives like zoom-platform and Fire Flower Games, plus preservation-minded exoDOS for old DOS titles. Roger lays out a UK household’s monthly budget reality—council tax, utilities, travel, groceries, housing—and why inflation and annual April price hikes make cutting costs feel like a grim puzzle. Jamie Zawinski marvels that you can effectively DoS a Waymo by leaving its door open, and dunks on the fix: paying DoorDash drivers about $10 to go close it. Bruce Schneier breaks down a New York proposal to add “blocking technology” to 3D printers that sca…

A screenshot of the Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle Chomp Champs webpage with the logo for the game and a message below which reads: We’d like to share an important update regarding PAC-MAN Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs. Product sales will end on November 1, 2025. Gameplay services will end on December 31, 2025, and the game will no longer be playable. Please note, times may vary by region. Thank you for playing!
This is what they took Pac-Man 99 away from us for. It's only been 2 years since the Pac-Man 99 servers went down.

I'm surprised that, with so many #LiveServiceGames, that the FIFA, Madden, and MLB franchise games are not live service games. All the publishers need to do is release them for free, throw in a season pass, maybe one or two new modes, update the rosters, and a few bug fixes, and they'll have […]
