That sounds about right. I remember the 360 being huge and nobody having a ps3, but now I'm not sure I know a single person who bought an xb1 or whatever the current one is called.

What do they do about devices that are still getting minor updates or fixes but not new major versions?

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 2 points 17 hours ago (4 children)

Say you released version 2023, 2024, and 2025, all of which are in support at the same time. It's 2025, but your latest release might be 2023.2, which looks like it's out of date to a user.

Date-based versioning sounds great in theory, but if you have more than one version in support at once then it can get ugly quickly

 

In this eagerly anticipated sequel of the game Clouds & Sheep, the cute sheep are finally on the loose again! Solve countless quests and fulfill your woolly friends' needs. Plant grass, flowers, and trees and shear your animals' different-colored wool to stock up your resources. Collect happy stars, harvest wood and flower petals, and use them to provide your flock with food, accessories, toys, and more! Control the clouds and make it rain to ensure your sheep never run out of fresh water to drink. If your sheep feel happy and content, they'll bring tiny lambs into the world

 

A simple Viking game where you and your crew sail around the 7 seas to plunder and kill. You can upgrade your ship to increase its speed, strength and much more, but be careful if you plunder too much, enemy ships will chase you and if they overpower your crew you will lose.

playtime is about 5-10 minutes, well technicaly there is no set playtime but that is usually how long it will take you to explore all the content the game has to offer as of writing this

Copying my own comment from when this was posted last year:

Every time I see this quaint but misleading image reposted it's necessary to make the same comment: the words attached to each image are do not exclusively represent those images. "Equality" could apply to all but the first; nobody uses "equity" this way; and most people use "justice" to refer to criminal justice and punishment.

Supposedly this sort of thing is why the sentence is "hanged by the neck until dead"

Yeah a little tenuous but it's not like I've posted anything better recently!

 

At the start of the Jazz Age in Paris in 1921, young French artist Jennifer Chevalier becomes embroiled in death, espionage, and revolution which takes her across France, England, and Ireland with the ghost of Oscar Wilde.

Jennifer believes the recent death of her father was no "accident." Finding a chained locket in her father's hotel, she attempts to use her childhood gift for talking to ghosts to call his spirit back. Unwittingly, the ghost recalled is Oscar Wilde, famous Irish playwright, whose secret affair with Jennifer's father has bound his ghost to the locket.

Jennifer and Oscar find themselves following a trail of murder and revolution through Paris, to London and Ireland, and into conflict with secret government organizations, a British occult spy network, and the Irish Revolutionary Army.

In a thrilling, witty, and melancholic adventure, Jennifer and Oscar uncover dark secrets, deal with the loss of shared love, and develop a deep friendship along the way.

 

Play as a wandering sheep on your way to a medieval carnival. Enjoy relaxing exploration, meet quirky characters, and uncover a hidden threat along your path

Featuring:

  • An adorable aww-aww-aww shpeep (Aye, that’s you!)
  • A shpeep-filled carnival (!!1)
  • A splashy, reckless furball (shhh… it’s a secret—play to find out!)

This game was made by a small team of 14-year-olds who really love silly sheep. It's our first big project - we hope it makes you smile.

You're not missing out, these element-combining games are a bit of a gimmick really

BTW I pressed "offline mode" and it hadn't tried to show me any ads (though I think I also denied it network access)

Your valor has won freedom for the people of Grove, and the manxome scourge has retreated into the shadows. Amid celebration, a stranger appears, warning of new evil that will ensnare your peaceful town. He speaks of ancient secrets locked within a temple, and of gateways to mysterious yet Undiscovered Realms. Of the temple's secrets, he divulges only the greatest: hidden within is an ancient tome, the Book of Fate, which maintains the balance between all realms.

The townsfolk look to you, their new champion, to take up this perilous quest and guide the stranger through the dungeon in search of the ancient temple. You will encounter new dungeons, pet transformations, weapons, monsters, and five completely new quests to test your mettle. New features include Hardcore mode (cheats disabled, more difficult monsters) and a level cap of 199. Import characters from the original FATE and continue your quest. It is time, once again, to determine your FATE!

The original is also still free
