Game on a Vega 64

Play some good dancing music and have an active party (even if it's just yourself), of course. :)

Not in, but thanks for pointing out to this game, went totally under my radar in the last 10 years even though it seems a bit cozy. xD

Listening to some Tori Amos.

(also not in - have it on humble)

I am not in but like to contribute some ideas.

Check doors for gaps and place a towel or carpets to close them
Check the windows and cover them with insulated curtains
Cover the keyholes
Keep doors between rooms closed at all time
Avoid staying in open areas if possible
Keep the lid of the electric stove open after cooking to warm up the kitchen
Eat lots of heat producing food
Wear thermal clothing, underwear, socks, gloves and cold weather headband
Do isometric or other physical exercises
Spend as much time as possible in museums, theaters, the community library, window shopping in the local mall or other cheap and warm places

Your friend should consider to move to Indonesia, Málaga, Loja or any other country where cost of living is low, appartments are cheap and the weather is nice and pleasant. With the money your friend would be saving would allow him or her to live it up like the royals.

I just looked at the Windows Weather app: 21°C right now. But hey, maybe you live on the north pole... where people post vague Quora questions on gaming forums.

Forget the other recommendations. Get a Tauntaun and a lightsaber.

Not in.

Ah! a seed of doubt! ^
Whatever I will reply to this it will only indicate that you live in different surroundings than a person in need.
This is an honest topic, thanks for questing, 12-8*C at night, high winds, and heavy rains, and it`s just starting...
I`m fine, my family keeps me activated :D, and have no time for any other portals or forums, social media, etc. sorry.
plus I really like this game!

The person in mind lives alone, in an apartment/flat, and refused gas installation because he could. Smart or not, now is looking for innovative/alternative ways to heat/keep warm his place/himself to feel at home. It`s better to think now rather than in a few weeks. He helped me a few times... c`mon stop making me do this already ^ Alright... I am pushing a game to people I could choose a different one but I like this. The situation is real.

Anyway! In 1 hour, I will present it, and find the answer. Got my own favourite already.

Attaching a screenshot from the game : )

edit: It would be really nice and clever if Gog.com could offer some charity options like other companies.
e.g. add 1% for a charity when getting a game.

you made it more interesting : ) thank you!

I just wanted some more context/background.

As some have already mentioned: cloths/blankets are the cheapest, but not the most pleasant way, to stay warm. There's also the risk of mold when your dwelling is insufficiently heated in winter.

If that person rents the apartment, the heating situation should be discussed with the landlord. The only alternative I know of is a mobile electrical space heater.

Post number 9 is my favourite, yet for personal reasons, a person is living on his own, and can`t use this solution in living together manners.
2. Lan party in a small room sounds convincing to heat up a place.
3. Long John already in use in a different form, proved successful until the next morning.
4. Warming room with a computer already
5. Airing rooms yet have to keep windows closed eventually to keep warm and amounts of food within today`s market are too heavy for a pocket. Tried food.
6. Bed ＆ hot water in use for nights
7. Good idea for bathroom window, and insulation overall.
8. Exercises in place, (or just in mind : ) Charity is warming up truly.
10. Two cats in place, sheep wool stuff to be ordered, heavy bathrobe in place, poorly insulated appartament in place
11. Flannel pajamas to be ordered, and kitties in place.
12. Wheat bag is a promising alternative!, With clothes and a blanket in place, the blanket is occupied by a cat. Hot chocolate to be tried (with a pinch of chili)
13. Would if could, can`t leave some people.
14. Very interesting, electricity is on top up, in case of cut off great stuff. Sleeping tent.
15. Heavy curtains in place, airflow kept to a rational minimum, memories from the previous winter plus some anxieties topped, portable/economical electric heater to be ordered, it`s for sitting still on long winter eves
16. Multiple layers to try instead of the thick stuff, draughts to be sealed, wanting to seat in warm instead of drunk excersising in many clothes if so will close curtains to save the view. Thankful for cheering up.
17. Heating up the room with a computer already, the better graphic card could warm 'im up
18. Dance! on the list to try with a blanket on.
19. Tori Amos or Why Kant Tori Read. Definitely self-healing with a piece of music. Warming up ears due to big headphones.
The person plays guitar too.
20. Insulation, covering the keyholes, closing internal doors bit claustrophobic, opening the stove great idea, and spending time in cheap warm places under serious consideration, a friend is not a rich person and can`t move yet thankful for good props.
21. Different temperatures take different measures, the person believes video games players are smart people but will check elsewhere as well
22. Faithful warm mount and sword! That`s certainly warming up.

...in, are...
4,7,8,10,11,12,13,14, 15,16,17, 21

to be chosen between sheep stuff, wheat bag, sleeping tent, insulating, many clothes, and drink, exercising and spending time in cheap warm places...

All answers are great and helpful and give hope for good times. Thank You!
In this case, Sheep wool will be the best solution, wool long johns John! I will get you a pair with all recommendations from all posts!
The game is going to Matterbandit.

Thank You! Good Night! and please Keep Warm soon! ^

My awesomely wholesome GOGlyte buddy, Seb7.9... :) I'm happy that your friend with the heating issues liked my personal winter life hacks for staying warm in a cold apartment. I do wish your friend luck and warmth (I know what it's like). However, I think you may not have noticed that I stated "not in" when I posted to your giveaway thread? LOL! Forgive me, buddy, I sometimes laugh when feeling awkward. ;) I sent you a private message via chat as well. I know you meant well, Seb7.9 :)

God save us. You said you were not in. I must have been stressed or late. Never too late to make things right.
I wanted to give you a game in the community giveaway two weeks ago, it was a different game but please accept this as a good one ^ ...and the idea and assumption of wool long johns will get wider echo this winter! : )

Hope it`s all entertaining. : )

Why not draw again? More fun. Is it Halloween Today? Even more fun. Thank you for having fun with a chaotic person, a wild mage. bipolar nut, a weregog?
Surprisingly I have two more keys for Little Inferno... the answer remains valid, but I like all answers so have to use a ... Wheel of Names! What a day! Can you feel the excitement... I do...thanks to things that have happened, where are still here! Good Luck! ^

...aaaand... the lucky winners are ....Ciemnogrodzianin and Truhlik .... ! If you think you are surprised you haven`t seen my face this morning 😶︎

Screenshots attached.

Planning Christmas Giveaway with wishes instead of questions will prepare better.

Thank You again for your valuable ideas!

Happy Halloween? Possibly! ; )

Thank you!
And now let me burn it all! (:

Thanks a lot, Seb7.9!
And now we can sing "The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire" :)

ROFL! :D Reading your funny comments and the way you brilliantly handled this situation just made me forget the shitty day I had at work today. What a comeback, Seb7.9! This second draw was even better than the first, if I may say so. xD Thanks for being such an awesome person!
