Peter Molyneux has made a proper game again rather than a monetization experiment, and I really hope he finishes it

Masters of Albion is a new game by Peter Molyneux, set in a whimsical version of Albion that features British humor and art reminiscent of the Fable series. The game includes unexpected tonal shifts, such as a humorous exclamation during a zombie attack. It is currently in early access and is Steam Deck ready, but players may experience frame rates around 22 fps on low settings. The game allows players to interact with the environment in amusing ways, such as picking up subjects and dropping them into the ocean. The writing is noted as superb, and the visuals are appealing on high settings. The development cycle is projected to be 12 months by 22cans, with hopes for the game to become a notable title since the Fable era.

I just found out the creator of Windows Task Manager accidentally left his phone number inside the app

Dave Plummer, the creator of the original Task Manager at Microsoft in the 1990s, encountered an issue where CPU utilization readings occasionally exceeded 100%, which he suspected was a bug in the kernel. Despite being a user interface designer and facing skepticism from the kernel team, he implemented 'asserts' in the code to diagnose the problem. One assertion specified that CPU usage should not exceed 100%, and he embedded his name and home phone number in the code for anyone who might encounter the issue. No one ever contacted him about the bug, and it remained unresolved until the kernel developers identified and fixed it later.

Masters of Albion does what Peter Molyneux promised, “it brings joy”

Peter Molyneux, the creator of Masters of Albion and founder of 22cans, aims to bring "joy" through his latest project. The game combines elements of god games, strategy, and fantasy RPGs, where players revitalize an old English town using divine magic while defending against undead threats at night. Daytime gameplay involves exploration and quests in a third-person perspective, reminiscent of Dungeon Keeper. Combat mechanics can be inconsistent, and building systems may lead to gaps in defenses. The town management system allows players to assist villagers and create recipes for critics, encouraging creativity. The game features humor and clever puzzles, creating a lighthearted atmosphere similar to the Fable series. Masters of Albion is currently in early access on Steam for .99, with a launch week discount bringing the price down to .49.

Rust has a ‘horse shield’ meta problem, so one enterprising player has come up with a ‘horse baiting’ meta to fix it

In Rust, the "horse shield" tactic poses a significant challenge for players on foot, making them nearly defenseless. The game's developer, Facepunch, is aware of the issue and is working on solutions, but the vanilla version still faces this imbalance. YouTuber Fyx has devised creative traps to counter this tactic, including: 1. Concealing landmines around the horse to eliminate unsuspecting players. 2. Setting up a false floor rigged with shotguns that activate when players approach the horse. 3. Using a pressure pad that triggers shotguns when a player mounts the horse and moves forward. 4. Employing a sleeping bag as a decoy with a remotely triggered C4 explosive underneath. These strategies showcase the game's mechanics and aim to help players combat the horse shield meta.

Will you like Graveyard Keeper if you’re a Stardew Valley and farm sim fan?

Players manage a variety of machines and crafting stations, unlocking blueprints through tasks like gathering flowers or chopping trees. The game features dark humor and a Halloween-inspired theme, with quirky characters such as a talking donkey and a sassy skull. However, interactions with NPCs are transactional rather than emotionally deep, focusing on reputation. Graveyard Keeper is known for being grind-intensive, with players often sidetracked by multiple tasks and complex crafting requirements.
