@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered! That old school gameplay with a shiny coat of paint! Still buggy, still fun! Felt good to cap this one off after dropping it years ago on the 360. No credits roll, so plz accept a humble Platinum trophy 🏆

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Metroid Prime Remastered! A really solid remaster! I hadn't played since it came out on the GameCube, but it was still just as fun as I remember! I hope Nintendo drops the updates to the other Primes before 4 comes out!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog! A charming, little whodunnit mixed with an endless runner! And free! Not very tough or long but it's a good few hours of fun!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Yoku's Island Express! Such a joy! Cross a Metroidvania with pinball and voila! I really liked the art style and music; it makes you feel like you're on a tropical island! Definitely worth a play!

#JustBeatIt Astro Bot, an amazing follow-up to Astro's Playroom! The platforming is smooth and the levels have lots of variety! It was also fun seeing all the PlayStation memorabilia they throw at you! The game isn't overly easy either; some levels had me sweating! @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Undertale but I didn't get the good ending! Honestly I wasn't a huge fan of the bullet hell gameplay, but it was a goofy little narrative otherwise! I may or may not go back for the pacifist route; let me know if it's worth it!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Theaterhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call on 3DS! I'm not great at rhythm games but I can't say no to Final Fantasy tunes! The gameplay is a bit simpler than others in the genre which helps!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga! If you love Star Wars and the goofy retellings that the Lego games do you'll enjoy this one. The gameplay is a bit shallow, but there is lots to do with all 9 movies! Tons of collectibles if you're into that, too!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Final Fantasy IV (DS)! This one was a longtime coming. Dusted off a decade+ old save and polished it off! Tough time last fight! FFIV itself is a classic and if you love a vanilla jrpg, it was one that set that standard with a grand story and excellent music!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt The Messenger! Got halfway through a few years back but dropped it halfway through. Gave it a restart and wow! A challenging game, but still doable! The music is banging with tongue-in-cheek writing!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt I'm the last person on Earth to beat Portal! What a treat! Just a genius game and it made me smile to hear all the cultural references the game spawned. Looking forward to the sequel!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt Batography free on Steam! Very charming, quick beat! A great pick for the 'If everyone else jumped off a cliff' bingo square if needed!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt I beat Chrono Trigger again! It's been a few years since I've played it and I was craving something cozy! I don't think one of the greatest games of all time needs any further review; just go play it or replay it!!!

Howdy @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Torchlight! Lots of the first Diablo DNA. It doesn't have much more depth than its inspiration, but it's not too long. If you're jonesing for a game like that first Diablo it'll satisfy that craving!

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #JustBeatIt The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom! The echo mechanic was fun and a neat twist to the traditional puzzles and combat. The art style of these last couple Zeldas has also been real charming. Def worth playing for any series fan ❤️

Weird-ass Wrapped this year.

The most embarrassing thing about this post is I that forgot Gadget’s name and so I googled “Hot mouse from rescue rangers.”

Now that I’m here in bluer skies I’m happy to say again: I am the Ghost of Yōtei. 💛

About to start my first round of chemo 😩
