There's a (great) game called Disco Elysium, in which you play a semi-amnesiac recovering alcoholic detective who is only partially attached to reality. The character pictured there is your partner, who constantly questions why you do things that may be mundane, like browsing fantasy novels in the bookstore, but are in no way helpful to the murder you're supposed to be solving.
Assuming it's using pure blacks for its dark mode and you're using an AMOLED display, it could save a bit of power, depending on how frequently you have that page open and how much screen space it's occupying. AMOLED displays illuminate each pixel individually, and pure blacks mean those pixels are just turned completely off, and aren't consuming any power.
The difference is pretty marginal though, to be perfectly honest. You might see some improvements to battery life on your phone using dark mode, but that's pretty negligible for most use-case scenarios.
I was a huge distro hopper until I started using immutable distros. One thing no one tells beginners is that you do have to maintain your system more on Linux than other OSs because Linux gives you the rope to hang yourself with. I would always bloat my OS and things would get unruly, everything would slow down or become unstable and I would lose track of how I had everything set up. Immutability make things so much cleaner.
Just spent the last hour playing and it is awesome and addictive!! I tried both the Genesis and TurboGrafx versions and I preferred the TurboGrafx because of the better use of screen real estate. Also, the USA version has some of the satanic imagery censored, so I’d suggest getting the uncensored Japanese version instead (which is also in English).
I’m glad you’re having fun with it! When you get tired of it, there’s a sequel to it called “Dragon’s Revenge.” It’s just as fun as “Devil’s Crush.” So nice to enable people to try retro games they hadn’t played before. I had no idea it was on the TurboGrafx as well as the Sega. Most people understand it was developed for the Sega. Interesting!
