Kinda looks like a Rareware game, although maybe I’m just making that connection because I played Donkey Kong 64 as a kid.

It’s the Orbit clock in the Kvaesitso launcher (one of the stock options). And yes, the icon pack is Arcticons, although I also use Alembicons to create icons for apps that aren’t currently supported by Arcticons.

I do something similar on my phones. The screen turns on to a blank page with just the time and alarm/media playback information.

To access my applications I swipe left. I’ve made the icons monochrome and removed their names so I rely on search to find and open the app I want. This makes app launching less of an addictive reflex and more of a conscious decision each time.

I was also on the fence for a long time because I detest console shooters as a result of playing a lot of PC shooters (inability to aim as consistently or as quickly just feels terrible to me), but at the same time, the novelty of a Nintendo-developed PvP shooter always interested me. In the end I couldn’t make a decision myself so I put it on my Christmas/birthday list and a family member bought it for me. I’m glad I tried it, although I don’t like it enough to play regularly.

The average person thinks Hollywood producers = historians.

The earlier flips were even better in this respect because the outer screen was so small it basically only functioned as a clock and notification panel. It’s kind of a shame that style hasn’t been retained by at least one manufacturer.

DeX was first released in 2017.
