Day 2 of posting an indie game I found that I think looks cool - Horripilant ( store.steampowered.com )

I stumbled across this one while scoping out the Quebec Games Celebration this week, and the weirdness of the art immediately had me hooked. Horripilant is an incremental dungeon crawler (which I THINK is a fancy way of not saying “Roguelite”), with a strange pixel art style that also somehow manages to feel like hand ...

I never really got into game books, but yeah this looks pretty rad!

The more you know. Seems like it’s taking that into a dungeon crawler. 

Any way to make iOS more private?

Android users have a tonne of options, but is there anything an iOS user can do to make their phones more private. It was not my choice to get an iPhone but it’s what was provided to me so I’m rolling with it.

Weren’t they just accused of grabbing their own ad data? 

Need a solid daily driver browser that’s good for most things

I am trying to get better with my privacy, and I specifically want to try and avoid big US tech where possible. I know they there are many people saying you should use multiple browsers for better privacy and all that stuff, but I’m also being realistic with myself - I just want a solid browser experience that has decent ...

I was quite fond of Arc so the layout would work for me. How does the privacy compare to say Librewolf which is what others are recommending? 

I’ll check out their website. Would be awesome if they had a mobile browser. I’m not sure what to do there. I’m on iOS.

Thanks for the info. I’ve seen Librewolf recommended a lot but also found a lot of threads of “normies” complaining it was a pain to use daily. I’ll give it a spin!

Thanks for the links. I’ve heard of Librewolf but never tried it. Will give it a spin. 

hellerphant OP , 1 day ago

I will try it out this coming week and let you know. Appreciate the info!

I use 1Password so I’m guessing Librewolf handles Firefox extensions? Should be fine there. 

I don’t mind logging in every time actually, but yeah I can take a look at those settings. 

Day 1 of posting an indie game I found that I think it is cool - LOVE ETERNAL ( store.steampowered.com )

I am an indie dev and former game journo, and I run a newsletter where I share recommendations of cool indies coming out every week. I’m not going to link to it here but I thought I could drop an interesting find on here. ...

I plan to do it! I do a weekly newsletter that features 5 games every week so I’ll just post one a day over here with a little snippet and it should be golden.

I started the newsletter to bring more awareness to indies. As an indie dev myself, it’s really hard out there to get people to see your game these days.

Well you can’t leave me hanging, what was the game? 

hellerphant OP , 8 hours ago

CrossCode is a great game! I never finished it, not because I didn’t love it, I just had other things going on at the time. I need to go back though! 

Those folks are working on something new. I can’t remember what it’s called right now. But that is a studio who is very dedicated to their craft.
