New Gaming Video! Goldenheart is a game developed by @millenniapede.bsky.social that mixes a bit of Zelda with King's Field, and is a great reason why you should always lurk your Steam Activity Feed to see what your Steam Friends buy: youtu.be/U3sPSuhj2Lc #pcgaming

A new gaming video! Painted In Blood is a Retro-Style Horror FPS, being published by @perpgames.bsky.social that just released into Early Access on Steam! I really dig the art. youtu.be/Adm_gqPP6YA (You can also get it from @fanatical.com in the "Build Your Own Frightmare Bundle" for even less)

New video! I checked out the demo for Vultures - Scavengers of Death, a turn-based isometric survival horror game with a style similar to classic "Resident Evil"! Demo key provided by @firesquid.games Thanks! youtu.be/leYuNyRtdgI

New Gaming Video! I take a look at Super Fantasy Kingdom, a Roguelite, Auto-Battling Kingdom Building Simulator from @superfantasygames.bsky.social & @hoodedhorse.bsky.social which is releasing into Early Access soon! youtu.be/uWt64QjiV5w *Thanks to Hooded Horse for providing a key*

New gaming video! I took at look at Xenopurge an Early-Access Steam game that I picked up during the recent Steam Autumn Sale. It's being made by @traptics.bsky.social and is an auto-battling Real Tactics Roguelite. youtu.be/89giU650WR4

New video! I tried the demo for Nighthawks, a RPG in the style of a Visual Novel where you play the role of a modern-era Vampire. It's being developed by The Curiosity Engine & published by @wadjeteyegames.bsky.social . I'm also a backer, so I'm real excited to try it! youtu.be/FEIylV91IGI

New gaming video! I played the demo for Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown a Roguelike from Gamexite & @daedalic.bsky.social , and honestly, I can't wait to play more. I really liked it! youtu.be/I7hV_2mXL1w

A new gaming video! I tried out the demo for Whiskerwood, a city builder from @minakatadynamics.bsky.social & @hoodedhorse.bsky.social , where you try to build a thriving colony of Mice while keeping your Cat Lords happy! youtu.be/39UL0cnhYTY *Thanks to Hooded Horse for the key*

New video! I took a quick look at Dying Breed, an RTS in Early Access being developed by Sarnayer & published by @microprose.bsky.social which has some definite "Command & Conquer" vibes to it! youtu.be/9i22Uls5s9c

My gaming channel now has a second video! I'm a bit late to the party, but I checked out the demo for MENACE, an upcoming release from the developers of "Battle Brothers", @overhypestudios.bsky.social & @hoodedhorse.bsky.social Thanks to Hooded Horse for the key! youtu.be/-nLALx71cT8

#357 Sword of the Samurai Should you play this? Yes! Why? It's an excellent DOS-era historic strategy game! Starting off from nothing to becoming Shogun is quite the adventure, filled with big battles, duels, tea drinking ceremonies, cutting down bandits, and even choosing the right bride.

I don't usually do go live posts anymore, but to celebrate the new channel (in the pinned comment above), I will be streaming Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era's Demo tonight! Big thanks to @hoodedhorse.bsky.social for the opportunity! www.twitch.tv/doctorcdcs

My first video for the gaming channel is now out! Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era will be releasing into Early Access later this year, and I was given a chance to play the Preview! Thanks to @hoodedhorse.bsky.social for the opportunity! youtu.be/ePNoDykL3w8 #homm #pcgaming

I'm officially announcing a YouTube Channel for YT-centric content! www.youtube.com/@doctorcdcsg... There's nothing public right now, but it'll be home to future Let's Plays as well as First look previews pretty soon. Maybe I'll learn to finally edit videos!

#356 Death Gate Should you play this? Yes! Why? A quality DOS P&C adventure game! The story, music & pixelart is great and its all voiced! But it it has its flaws. The lockpicking sequences aren't fun, & has time-sensitive sequences which might be frustrating. I also did get softlocked once.

#355 Silly Knight Should you play this? Yes, if only for the fact that it's a NEWish DOS Game! Why? You read that right, it's a DOS game released in 2017. It's a very simple platformer that was made for a gamejam, but it's pretty fun, and you can beat it in 30 minutes or so!

#354 - Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer Should you play this? YES! Why? A solid sequel to a game that I never thought would get one! While the story is solid (& the ending does stick the landing), my standouts were the pixel art & the music, which are 11/10's. Great job @clifftopgames.bsky.social !

#353.) 1oom - Master of Orion Should you play this? YES!! Why? It's the OG Master of Orion (my personal fav) with QOL features & bug fixes. Plus, it's a free download (you gotta copy your original game installation into the directory for it to work)! Here's the link: github.com/1oom-fork/1oom

#352 - LABYRINTH OF THE DEMON KING Should you play this? Yes! Why? If you're in the mood for a PS1-style, samurai FPS w/melee horror fighter, then this is for you! There are some issues, notably with blunt attacks (both foot & weapon) but other than that, it's worth playing!

Time to play catch-up! #351 - I'm on Observation Duty 6 Should you play this? Yes! Why? Another fine, albeit an easier installment in the series, which continues to be a great time in a group setting. The use of AI-generated images however, is a con, & is a big distraction in the final level.

Hello! Today's stream will be a bit special, as I'll be doing a "birthday stream"! For today's event, I'll be changing things up! I asked a few fellow Twitch Retro streamers what their favourite DOS game was, and I'll be taking a look at them! I'm really looking forward to it!

Kathy Rain 2 is fire so far. I haven't finished it yet, but.. Buy the game or wishlist it. The pixel art is amazing! Gotta wait a whole week before I can play it again :(

Been waiting a long time to play @rawfury.bsky.social and Clifftop Games' newly released Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer. I finally picked up & I'll be playing it later tonight. I just won't be doing an eleven hour stream of it, like I did with the original!

Couple more games completed on stream! #349 - Tape to Tape (Early Access) Should you play this? Yes! It's still in Early Access, but it's Roguelike Arcade Hockey. It's great! #350 - Maniac Mansion Should you play this? Yes, but man you better be smart, patient, or both, cause I just stank at it.

Took me over year, but I can finally write this: #348 Final Fantasy XII Should you play this? Yes! It's flawed but the good outweigh the bad. Why? Loved the combat system, visuals, V/O work & OST. The not great? The overall story, no real reason to use summons or most magic among other issues.

OH BOY I'M SO BEHIND ON FINISHED GAMES WELL HERE GOES: Should you play: 341.) FAR: Lone Sails = YES 342.) Torin's Passage = YES 343.) Infinity Blade = YES 344.) Heart of China = YES 345.) Enclosure 3-D = YES 346.) Scratches: Director's Cut = YES 347.) GREENER GRASS AWAITS = YES There we go

I'm going to take a shot in the dark here but: I don't think "Mc Jug" actually created the intro theme to X-COM: UFO Defense/ UFO: Enemy Unknown. youtu.be/aDsXKBoThZk?... Totally unrelated: Guess what YouTube flagged for copyright on my X-COM video last night?

This Wednesday evening, let's check out a newer title that I hear is good: FAR: Lone Sails! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming #farlonesails

We return to Chewy: Esc from F5 tonight. Perhaps I was a bit to quick to rely on the walkthrough so easily and so early. I'll try to give more time to the game and its puzzles! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #pcgaming #retrogaming #twitch

Prior to the Twitch announcement re: long-form VOD deletion, my YouTube channel was... well... dead. haha After making YT the only place to watch VODs, In the past 28 days, the channel has grown by 1000+ views & gone over 150 hrs watched! Also, I hit 350 subscribers! Thank you everyone!

Torin's Passage continues in tonight's stream. That's good! It starts with me stuck on a sliding puzzle. That's bad! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #dosgaming #retrogaming #twitch

Final Fantasy XII has been one heck of a ride, but now I gotta ask: Do we continue that journey, or take that off-ramp to the end game? twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #ps2gaming #twitch #finalfantasyxii #retrogaming

For some reason "Chewy: Esc from F5" has been on my HDD for a while and I don't remember why it was installed So I guess I'll play it twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming #dosgaming #scummvm

Tonight we find out the ending to ZERO PROTOCOL You can actually buy it in a bundle on Fanatical (The Platinum Collection)! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming

Actual Final Fantasy XII storyline instead of side quests? Wow! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #ps2 #finalfantasyxii #twitch #retrogaming

What better way to spend a Friday evening than playing a game you just bought in a bundle! It's called Zero Protocol, and it's a ... horror game? Oh dear. twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming

Nothing better than spending an entire evening making YouTube videos public one at a time while also turning off the subscriber notification each time!

#337 Duckman: The Graphic Adventures of a Private Dick Should you play this? Surprisingly, yes! Why? The UI is simple, pixel art's great, the MIDI is chill & the voice acting is great (Duckman is voiced by the V/A who voiced Deckard Cain) and it's full of 90s references to make you feel real old!

Been a while since I did back to back streams of the same game, but it's time for more Duckman: The Graphic Adventure of a Private Dick! I didn't have high hopes for this, but it's starting to grow on me. The pixel art is crazy good too! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming #duckman

#336 Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Should you play this? Yes, but use a guide for castle maze & final area if you don't remember the movie. Why? A fun, but flawed early Lucasfilm/Lucasarts adventure. The castle maze & timed events are weak points. Music is good but sparse. Final area sucked.

#335 Unreal Mission Pack #1: Return to Na Pali Should you play this? Only if you need more Unreal in your life. Why? If you enjoyed Unreal, then the expansion is more of the same. Its story is a continuation of the original, & includes voice narration between levels. Did drag on a bit though.

#334 Star Trek: Borg Should you play this? Yes! Especially the remaster! Why? A solid Star Trek FMV game with John de Lancie stealing the show as Q. The end is a bit weak, otherwise it's a good time overall. Look up the remaster of ST: Borg and play it in a browser! P.S.: Don't listen to Q!

I've had this sitting on my hard drive for a while, so I guess it's time to finally try it out Duckman: The Graphic Adventure of a Private Dick is up tonight! It should be... good? twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming #retrogaming

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade continues! I also need to make some posts after the stream to list newly completed games on-stream! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #dosgaming #retrogaming

1.) Nice 2.) We return to Final Fantasy 12 tonight, and instead of hunts, I get to spend time fishing. Double nice! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #playstation #finalfantasy12 #retrogaming

I knew I forgot to do something! I keep forgetting to post when I'm going live on here. Well, I'm going to finish up Unreal: Return to Na Pali tonight, and afterwards... well... I hope you got EYE BALLS twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #pcgaming #unrealgaming

I should have done this a loooooonnggg time ago, but from today onward, as soon as a stream is done, it'll be migrated to YouTube and that'll be the place to watch any VOD content going forward. www.youtube.com/@doctor_cdcs I better start adding "Like, Comment & Subscribe" to the VODs now!

It's been a week since the Twitch "Highlight-o-pocalyse" was announced. I've been working on not only migrating VODs to YouTube at an accelerated pace, but also to archive my content onto external storage. (1/2) #twitch

The Final Fantasy XII Appreciation Group once again gathers to Appreciate Final Fantasy XII! Time for more side quests & Elite Hunts! twitch.tv/doctorcdcs #twitch #retrogaming #ps2gaming

#333 Mega Man (NES) Should you play this? Yes! But don't be afraid to use save-states if NES platformers aren't your forte. Why? It's fun, but hard. I had to use save-states as it was my first time playing it. There's apparently a glitch that makes the game easier, but I beat it without using it!
