I deleted my only copy of Windows and reinstalled OpenBSD on my big PC. It’s way better in almost every respect but I miss video games lol. I’ll probably install Linux somewhere and boot that to play video games eventually but games on your native operating system are pretty convenient
Edit: thanks for all your recs, I am crashing from caffeine rn and have to log off lol, will check them all later
Battle for Wesnoth (turn-based strategy)
People would be paying good money for this. It has multiple quite long campaigns. Decent artwork and dialogue as well. If you like Advance Wars and such, you’ll like this.
Neverball (Super Monkeyball clone)
It’s a 3D physics puzzle platformer and a sort-of racing/speedrunning game in one. Instead of controlling the ball directly, you tilt the level. Works amazingly well with a mouse, probably better than the Monkey Ball analog stick control scheme.
XMoto (2D motocross)
Similar to Neverball, it’s a skill-based physics platformer, but in 2D, and also encourages replaying to improve your times.
