  • Lynx was as much “the Epyx console” as it was “the Atari portable”. Epyx had so many high-quality games on Commodore 64; I have not played all of the Lynx ports but I can tell you that Electrocop was a sequel to Impossible Mission, in spirit. All of “The Games” (unlicensed Olympics) series were pretty great on C64.

    Early on, one of Epyx’s founders got sick of just reusing the Apshai engine over and over and left to found Free Fall, who created Archon - one of Electronic Arts’ first games.





  • You said Ubuntu three times. /s

    AUR is supposed the last resort, after distro repos, building from source, Flatpak, and Appimage. Ubuntu’s equivalent to the AUR would be PPAs.

    Personally, I have fewer problems gaming on Arch than any other I’ve tried.

    Edit: Snap is bad for software freedom. I won’t touch Ubuntu anymore; if I use apt, I meant apt and not snap. Hijacking my command is Microsoft-style rug-pulling.
