/gmg/ game nights
It is going to be at 6:30 pm central time on Friday-Sunday. We will try to get together to play. The plan will be to play one game and stick with a game unless people really want to pivot. I'm planing on doing a rotation of the games as follows based on votes:
Doom
Jigsaw Puzzles
Gamecube Games/Wii Games
SRB2K
The Binding of Isaac
Archipelago
Slay the Spire 2
Games will be removed when they are beaten or people lose interest in them. Feel free to suggest more games. Below is some guides to help get set up.
How do I get Doom?
https://rentry.org/vrbin#how-to-play-doom
Is a good place to start. You will need Doom 2 and Zandronum. Make sure you update Zandronum or you won't be able to connect.
How do I play Jigsaw Puzzle?
Jigsaw puzzles is browser based.
How do I play Gamecube/Wii games?
Download Dolphin and the rom of the game going to be played. The US rom most likely unless said otherwise. You may have to turn off Dual Core for some games like Mario Golf.
How do I play SRB2K?
Download it here https://mb.srb2.org/addons/srb2kart.2435/
We will try to play on US-IL The Waggin' Wagon.
https://github.com/Indev450/SRB2Kart-Saturn/releases/tag/v8.3
A separate fork of the game which allows additional HUD options, 60FPS/unlimited frames, and better manages performance.
How do I play The Binding of Isaac or Slay the Spire 2?
Buy it
https://store.steampowered.com/app/250900/The_Binding_of_Isaac_Rebirth/
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2868840/Slay_the_Spire_2/
Note: To play online in Isaac you need the latest DLC and that means you need the rest of them.
How do I play Archipelago?
Go to https://archipelago.gg/games look for the game you want to play and make a file with the settings you want. Then give me the file or let me know what settings you want for the game. It is recommended that you pick a game you can normally beat in a few hours that you know somewhat well.
