Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital in c/games@lemmy.world

Maybe this is what it will finally take to get some of the bigger game communities off Nexus. It's a decade overdue.

Turning a boarding school near Portland Oregon into an intentional community with a partial focus on sustainability (codwell.org)
 

I'm working on a project to build a group of intentional communities in an old boarding school west of Portland. The property has fresh spring water, on site waste water treatment, orchards and a vineyard, and 20-30 acres we could use to grow food. I'm hopeful that one or two of the communities we organize to make use of the space will be focused on sustainability and renewable use of the resources available. If anyone here is interested in the project, I'd be happy to talk more. We're looking for potential co-owners, residents, community organizers, investors, etc.

Seeking pitch/plan creator (lemmy.world)
 

I'm trying to raise money to buy property in Oregon (USA) for a live/work intentional community. I need to find someone with experience in investment/lending pitches to distill my ideas and plans into something that investors and banks won't balk at. I'm open to referrals to anyone with this sort of skillset.

Requisite downvote, but also mention that the devs of Tin Can are about to start alpha testing of their multiplayer sequel named Space Chaos.

It's a Block Pushing Game is a sokobanlike from the creator of Baba Is You. It's relatively short but has multiple novel mechanics. I enjoyed it enough to create a curses client for it.

PS: If you like Baba Is You, Hempuli publishes multiple new games per month, mostly clever sokoban-likes, at https://hempuli.itch.io/

Anyone else playing on a 5-20 year lag? (xkcd.com)
 

I tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not "retro") games, particularly PC games?
