Interesting timing on this article considering The Big Walk comes out this week. Obviously the game is not as intricate as a Myst game, but it feels like the perfect mixture of a game where design really matters and reaction to what the mar

Where's the setting to make YouTube not display shorts?

You're the pro. But as a casual observer, games tend to have menus with lots of settings options. Every other bit of software I use has next to none. Totally anecdotal, so I totally understand that my view is probably skewed. Keep up t

I keep observing that accessibility features often contain the tools we need to make our devices and apps more humane. This is one area that video games have been way ahead on.

The dev explains more here: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/3716836/klaser-a-printable-... I bet you could suggest collection databases to include. Was thinking Discogs would be cool too.

Your collection or wishlist, printed onto standard 63 × 88 mm game cards. Movies, books, board games, video games, comics: don't look at your phone to decide what to watch next, when you can shuffle cards and let fate decide (*)
