Interesting, thanks for letting us know. It looks like Steam made it default to Proton. I did a quick comparison between Linux Runtime vs Proton and it looks like Proton is faster for some reason. Startup time: 31s vs 35s.

Take a look at RimWorld's storyteller concept sketches from back in 2013. Cassandra Classic looked like a teenager. Randy Random looked even more insane.

(Final versions added for comparison.)

Steam Deck defaults to Proton

Back in the day, games were often based directly on fiction or reality: Submarine captain, city mayor, airline pilot, wizard adventurer, galactic conqueror, etc.

Nowadays almost all games are based on other games.

We lost a lot of originality in that transition.

Quality shines through in sales numbers. Reviews in the last 30 days:

I have the ambition of making RimWorld something worth playing for at least a few people in the 22nd century.

What games will people still play 100 years from now?

Count both games that get continuously updated, and games played in original form.

Counter-Strike is approaching the quarter-century mark and is still going strong.

Sometimes I think of game design like putting each idea on trial. I am prosecutor, defense, judge and jury, each in turn.

Write it. Bolster it. Question it. Attack it. Try to replace it. Make alternatives. Recess, reconvene. Judge. Sentence. Implement, discard, or deep freeze.

Still in 2022 there's no good software I can find for managing game design tasks that's better than Google Docs.

The solutions out there are so featureful but so fatally clunky due to the weight of their features. Can't decide if they want to be used by creators or managers.

Nice of them to make this decision on 4/20.
