Crash 4 is a lot more fun on replay I think Because 1. you know which parts of the game are boring and best avoided, and 2. you know the bullshit placements of hidden crates

I'm thinking of speedrunning Phoenotopia again. That game's sooooo much fun to route

I think this is still my favourite screen in the game

I'm still having sooooo much fun with Touhou: Lost Branch of Legend Working on improving my consistency right now, which isn't great, and I still feel like I'm learning so much

I played a couple more stages of Stranger of Paradise and MAN this game's still so good

As it turns out, Higurashi is really, really, really good

I believe NEO: TWEWY made exactly one good choice: naming the team Wicked Twisters. It's SUCH a good name That's about it

It's actually really easy to not talk about things you don't like! You don't have to put them in front of other people's faces to say how much you don't like them This is a lie, it's actually REALLY hard, but once you get into the habit, it gets much easier

Quote Cavestory is one of the character designs of all time, huh

So I'm enjoying Higurashi a lot. On chapter 5 at the moment Funnily enough, chapter 1 is still the one I liked the most, that specific type of horror really works for me. But the rest has been pretty good, and the music keeps getting better

Yknow, we really need more rhythm games like A Dance of Fire and Ice There are waaaaay better ways to present rhythm gameplay than "notes move towards you along a track"

Really, the biggest crime Lightning Returns committed was not giving you any XMB themes like XIII and XIII-2 did

Thinking about youtu.be/YtXPCVTVX9o

Grayfruit hearing a sound and then immediately imitating it pitch perfect will never stop being hilarious to me

Watching a video that flip flops between footage of original Spyro and Reignited, and... I keep being surprised by how much I just, don't like Reignited's look at all. At first I thought it looked great, especially the first game, but now I'm like. Bleh?

Enjoying Rivals of Aether a lot, but it's honestly kind of bonkers that the character tutorials have you do stuff that requires jumping and quickly attacking, while jump and attack are by default mapped to _opposite face buttons_

You KNOW a Youtube video will be good when it busts out the Coconut Mall song

Can't stop thinking about Dedede's redesign in Return to Dreamland. He haunts me

FEACHER

Me: "Well, I really loved I Wanna Lockpick but I don't know if it will hold up on a replay" Me after clearing Chromatic Monolith again: "I Wanna Lockpick is absolutely my favourite puzzle game of all time and it's not even close"

I generally appreciate the sentiment behind advice that's like "you can be creative! Just grab X program and start messing around! It's that easy! Doesn't matter if it's good! Go make stuff!" But I don't think people realize how damaging hearing that is to people with certain mental health issues

Thing I am almost certain I've seen before but don't remember where: little Baba Is You style icons that say "HE HIM" and "SHE HER"

I appreciate that I still see people being horny about Sybil Pseudoregalia. May the trend continue for years to come

Me, staring at a puzzle in I Wanna Lockpick, a game I have 100% completed: "Wait. This one is seriously impossible. What"

There are so many people making so many cool videogames these days. It's never been this easy. I'm so happy I get to live in this point in the history of games

The reason that whole thing is on my mind is that I am watching a Void Stranger LP and I'm really loving it, it's great that I get to experience at least part of the game Because when I tried playing it myself it suuuuuuuucked, it's a game that is great to watch and awful to play

Replaying I Wanna Lockpick Man. If I had any video editing skills at all and also infinite time and energy, I would absolutely make a sort of "guided tour" video series on this game

Sometimes, you must simply become a lime IRL

Pretty much every outfit in Lightning Returns looks amazing, AND some of them have distinct victory animations and voice lines, this game rules so much

It's quite bold of Lightning Returns to give you SO many kickass outfits, and then make the one that you start the game with and that's on promo art and such also the ugliest one

Well it turns out Lightning Returns is just a dress-up game with an RPG tacked onto it [positive]

IT'S HERE 🐶 IT'S LIVE 🐱 THE TWELVE SLOT SALOON KICKSTARTER IS NOW! Thank you all so much for the support this far, it means the world to me we've made it here of all places!! kickstarter.com/projects/jam... #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart

Heck with it, I'm getting 1000xRESIST.

I really really wanna play Pokemon Battle Revolution. I find the whole concept extremely cool But man... the attack animations are just so painfully long

Me anytime I see a bunny: "Oh my god... bunny"

the next dark world has a place where neither boys nor girls can venture and kris can walk in just fine. susie and ralsei turn to the camera and go "wow kris, it's awesome you how you can just go in because you aren't a boy or a girl!"

It appears that the new trailer is too heavy for bluesky. So have a link instead: The new trailer I made for @nokogodo.com's RPG DIRECT! www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgNh...

Replaying a bit of DQ Swords It's a delightfully Wii game. Slow, inconvenient, gimmicky, and with lots of personality. It turns out I loved it for a reason

I feel weird about Bravely Default remasters. It's good that more people can experience them now, of course, but it's also such a good fit for the 3DS. If anything BD is the one game that I think best showcases just how _amazing_ 3D environments can look

Playing Dedede's Adventure, from Triple Deluxe Speedrunny modes like this are always fun, but one thing that strikes me is how much it relies on stage knowledge, and... memorizing stages is really difficult when they're so samey

Really gotta write a long blog post with my thoughts about the XIII trilogy once I'm done with Lightning Returns. I have so many thoughts, it's going to be hard to get them in order

Happy pride month to every doll, dog, and angel ^_^

Listening to this little sample of Phoenotopia's soundtrack is making me really want to play it again. What an amazing game youtu.be/lbJ3UobZWCE

I will never get over the fact that every party member in Stranger of Paradise has at most 4 letters like FF1... except Sophia They CLEARLY knew what they were doing. What the heck happened. Why Sophia

I've been thinking about @fishbonekiller.bsky.social 's Jojo

I've owned a WiiU for so many years and I continue to be surprised by how comfortable the gamepad is to hold

I keep having this problem with sokovanias where I enjoy them a lot for a bit but then they start getting really hard And solving difficult puzzles in a block pushing game is so frustrating

Trying out Dustforce after @lmaonadestand.bsky.social 's recommendation. The controls are kinda hard to get to grips with, but I'm really liking how it pushes you to keep your momentum Took me a bit to recognize where I had heard the music before. It was in I Wanna Lockpick, of course
