Neat, I have no shame in admitting I picked it up, I've never played any of these - but if someone tells me I can't try something (or tries to block access because of prudish reasons) I want to immediately see what the fuss is about.
So, anyone recommend one of these to start with? How would you recommend I try to run these on Linux? (It's also my first experience with GoG, but seems neat!)
from what i have seen, many of the games are done in renpy. usually these ship something like run.py - should be easy enough, if you have python installed.
