Local goodies.

This is incredible.

Caturday sunshine.

I made tostones.

Some quick and easy Seared Organ farming. 🪡

Beat Teslagrad 2 in about 2 hrs. +Intriguing world / art style +Clever platforming puzzles +Fun traversal upgrades –Floaty / imprecise movement –Very short –Best upgrade is almost at the end A fun, linear little jaunt, but they could’ve cooked it a bit more and made it into an 8 hr metroidvania.

Teslagrad? More like TeslaRAD.

Excited for everyone diving into Hades II today! I’ll be patiently waiting for the physical release in November.

This cured my tension headache…

How is it that the world is falling apart, and once hallowed art forms are shadows of their former selves, but video games just keep getting better?

Moses is a standup dude, and the single most passionate SNES RPG connoisseur I have had the pleasure of knowing. This is a rad project, and is sincerely worthy of your attention and support.

Pre-orders launch on October 1st for The Definitive Book of SNES RPGs Vol.1. Make sure you're signed-up to bitmap.news so you don't miss out. #SNES #RPG #booksky

Decided to take a short break from Silksong before I dive into the “post game” and Teslagrad 2 sucked me right in. It’s no Silksong of course, but it’s a nice little puzzle platforming metroidvania-lite with lovely music and interesting ideas. It’s on sale for like $4 on the eShop right now.

First credit roll/completion down, 39 hours. On to Act 3? 🕷️🕸️

I’m at the final boss in Silksong and I’m just… exhausted. I get it, it’s part of the narrative, but wow this game can really just take it out of you.

“Well unless you’ve got a go-kart hidden in the fat folds of your neck, I can’t help you.”

Found this in the wild, NES game #142 and one step closer to having all the NES RPGs.

Tried out the Trails in the Sky demo for a little bit, and just couldn’t shake the feeling of “man, I could totally be playing Silksong right now.” So I went back to Silksong. 😅

Caught Jasper watching YouTube with me last night. 😆

Needle felted Flea from Silksong. Awooo! #art #handmade #needlefelt #Silksong #gameart #cuteart

How am I supposed to tell the difference between Dangarompum, Pokoropocom, Dinkapopa and Popanronpia?

As a Metroid fan, I’m finding it weird that I’m not at all excited about Prime 4, despite the original Prime being one of my favorite games of all time. Maybe I’m just feeling 2D games more right now.

Goodbye for now, West Coast. You were good to me.

Went snorkeling in La Holla Cove with about a dozen leopard sharks. I feel alive.

The little Ditto-human is deeply unsettling.

Bless.

Local shop pickup.

Not thrilled that we’ve normalized announcing paid DLC before the base game even comes out.

Hades II trailer gave me goosebumps.

Just landed in San Diego and was immediately greeted by the Bananza bus. 🍌

About to be trapped in a tube in the sky for 2.5 hours, time to lock in and beat this Silksong boss.

PC Gamer resorting to straight up whining in place of worthwhile content.

Please don’t take it personally if I unfollowed you today. I still love you. This is a positive mental health space for me, and I already have enough unwanted political noise in other areas of my life. 🧡

Tomorrow morning I have the insane privilege of flying to San Diego and meeting up with BOTH of my siblings to go see Grandaddy on the opening date of their Sophtware Slump 25th Anniversary tour. I’m getting emotional just thinking about it.

I lied, my pie in the sky wish would be Clair Obscur for Switch 2. (Not gonna happen.)

I think the Luddites need to come back and start breaking shit.

After thinking about it for a bit, I actually have zero wants or expectations for this Nintendo Direct. Between Silksong and three other Switch 2 games I haven’t even gotten to play yet, I’m entirely set for the rest 2025. They could announce a 2027 release date for Prime 4 and I would be happy.

My film school thesis will be “Dick Shots: The Luddite Themes of Robocop”

Good morning. 🪐 youtu.be/dppcuKJrqbE?...

My 9 year old has watched me play Silksong a few times now so she asked if she could try. She just beat the first boss and she’s hooked. Can’t wait to see how far she makes it.

I just lost 600 rosary beads, I think I’m gonna vomit.

She thinks she missed the train to Mars She’s out back counting stars
