The #Switch2 has me energized and I want to get some thoughts in before retreating back into my cave to finish these book essays. Folks in #indiegames or the third-party space making Switch 2 games or enhancing previous releases, I would love to talk to you for articles on Forever Classic Games.

The world is scary and I'm having it rough transitioning into a job outside of #gaming but I was gifted a healing experience by my partner that made things so much better. I got to pet and hang out with Capybaras at Sustainable Safari in Maplewood, MN! They're so cool and calm.

ICYMI - Silent Hill 2 is a deeply important horror game. We were surprised with just how good the remake from Bloober Team is, supplementing the original work. Our only hope is to see the original SH2 be made available, though fans have done well already. foreverclassicgames.com/reviews/2024...
