Not sure why folks here are so down on Pocket. I’ve used it on a daily basis since it was called Read It Later, long before the Mozilla acquisition. It’s a handy way to hang on to links temporarily, when bookmarking is overkill and I don’t want to have a million browser tabs open.

Very often I spot something on Mastodon (or pre-Musk Twitter) or one of my Discord servers and want to come back to it later. Maybe I’m on my iPhone and the site is something that would be better on my PC monitor. Maybe it’s a YouTube video and I’m someplace where I can’t play sound. Pocket does the job.

A Short Hike is a very charming game that’s included in the sale. If you’ve picked up one of the bigger charity bundles on itch.io in the last couple years you may already own it.

It hasn’t been that long since their last SF-themed release, with Gabriel Soma and The Singularity.

That being said, I love Alien and a Nostromo map could be amazing.

At a minimum, I’d want to be able to unrealistically change direction in mid-air.

I’d like to be able to double jump, platform video game-style. Mostly pointless in daily life, but imagine how good it would feel?

I’m not generally into racing games, but this is one series I miss. I was surprised about how it just seemed to disappear.

Kobold Press’ monsters are fun and original. Just be aware that they hit at their listed Challenge Rating, while many of the first party WotC monsters are easier/less effective in combat than their listed CR.

Jumpman on the Commodore 64.

Outlast is 2spooky4me. Got pretty far in, but then just couldn’t get past the dread.

Never played it, but Alien: Isolation is a cool-looking game I’m not going to even bother attempting.

I love the standalone Gwent game (which I played first), but hated the more primitive version they used in The Witcher 3. Never touched it beyond what they required.
