I’ve been playing The Axis Unseen. Framerate can be a bit rough at times, but some patches fixed the worst of it and made it playable.

Started playing Animal Well the other day. It’s quite good.

I didn’t migrate yet because I was five years into a project that I can only work on in my spare time, but you can bet that if I ever start another game, I’m looking at a different engine.

I got myself mildly addicted to Mindustry. Wiping out enemy bases can be pretty satisfying.

Imprisonment for simply saying something that in no sane world would be considered a crime.

I haven’t played The Outer Worlds, but the screenshots look to me like just a regular old sci-fi game (not necessarily a bad thing though).

But Outer Wilds actually impressed me. If you plan to play it, don’t watch any gameplay videos. Go into it with zero expectations.

That’s how I felt after finishing Outer Wilds.

I kinda miss doing those relatively simple physics probems like finding how far something goes based on velocity and shit.

Does it seem unethical to anyone else that Experian reports credit scores and also has a service to boost your credit score? Like “pay us or else we’ll tell people you’re poor.”

I’d love to try it, but I don’t want to buy yet another console. If I could play it on Steam Deck, that would be ideal.

I’m kind of an idiot, you see.

As someone who released a game on Steam, I had no idea what to put in as the minimum requirements. I basically said “screw it” and put in the specs of the PC I started developing it on because I had no way to test it on anything else.

• Praey for the Gods
• The Upturned
• Your Spider

My mom once said “flat bowls” when referring to plates.

I still use TortiseGit just for merge conflicts. The editor is more intuitive to me.

Have you played La-Mulana or the sequel?

It’s full of insane puzzles and traps, but it’s a great metroidvania with some great music. It’s one of my all time favorites.

I used to like the music in some of the Mega Man games.

It’s not really a survival game. More of an exploration puzzle game. It doesn’t explicitly tell you where to go or what to do. You’re pretty much on your own to find clues and figure out what happened and how to end the time loop you’re stuck in. It really is a fascinating game. I haven’t played anything else quite like it.

There was the original Clock Tower game for SNES that had a patched version available somewhere to translate the text to English. No clue where I found it, but that game was great.

I have a laptop rocking Win 2k. Unfortunately I couldn’t back up the Program Files folder before the hard drive failed. But at least I got the original La-Mulana playable on the desktop.
