Love your write up. I feel similarly, and many many randomizer runs (Archipelago.gg is great for it), speedruns, and classic playthroughs later I still find the atmosphere and music incredible

That’s a great article. I like the answer to the 90 tick marks:
“I bet I just put my compass down and kicked every 4 degrees”
So I had shoulder surgery a few weeks ago. I spent a lot of one-handed time on the couch. Played some Shapez 2 with a mouse on the couch via the deck, I played some the Witness (goofily with one hand on my xbox controller), some Slay the Spire, and some Stray
Been nice to have the ability to not sit at my computer when it was too uncomfortable
Dude, same. The worst part of my recent should surgery was the lack of caffeine all day (bumped from noon to 4 pm surgery). That first sip of recovery room coffee was incredible
The real way is a generator inlet, which is a male plug that’s interlocked with the main. So the cord ends up being a normal male/female cord
I love re-deriving the train when people talk about autonomous cars/trucking and how they can already do the highway part easily
As am I, this is delightful to discover
Are you playing on an emulator? There’s a plethora of cool Pokemon roms based on fire red
That’s a cool read. I would much rather play a smaller passion-project of a game than a AAA one anyway, but it’s cool to see markets shifting that way on the large
I started one quick Pokerogue run on Friday and now it’s Sunday and I haven’t put it down
I didn’t even know that “BioShock Infinite good” was a hot take. I loved the story, and it’s somewhat open ended nature. That’s most of my friends’ takes as well
I just can’t put Hades II down! It’s not finished, and I’m running up against that more and more. But the polish is incredible!
Holy hype batman. I’m so stoked!
Done! Thanks for making this visible. It wasn’t too hard at all. Hopefully this will help everyone be able to continue spot passing
These all sound like emulator-ideal criteria to me!
There’s a lot of non-free versions of that which are super reasonable and meet all of your other criteria nicely. Stardew Valley, Slay the Spire. Games that are full games for a one time low cost.
That’d be pretty interesting if they could pull it off
Yeah, a few “natural disasters” or random whatever’s would add to the mid/late game. Once water is stable, it’s easy to thrive anytime. Bad water is a nice mix up for that for sure.
And yeah, big time machine energy.
I have about a hundred hours in it. Here’s some scattered thoughts:
–The devs clearly care a lot and it’s a labor of love. They communicate well, provide updates, listen to feedback, engage with the community. They’re lovely.
–the game has a fun series of mechanics, good visuals, good music, fun vibes. It’s a bit… Sandboxy, towards later in most runs. I don’t know what to do with my settlement come cycle 12-15 (cycle is 12-20 days or so). I wish there was a little more of a goal for it, like scenarios
–good mod support and map making. People have made some dope maps for it
I’m gonna continue to revisit it as campaign/scenarios evolve, as mechanics are added, and as I want to get my beaver vibe on
Okay tunic was better than I expected. The beta area and Dev commentary is so cool. What a wild game with so much speed running inclusion
Surely playing as Adeptus Custodes who guard the throne all day would be more boring.
But I feel ya, I would’ve loved some different characters.
