Just backed Devil's Hideout on Kickstarter and I'm happy to announce that I'll be the Associate Producer again like in the previous @cosmicvoid games! 😎
The Kickstarter for Devil's Hideout started today!
One of the largest rooms I did for the Hoagie Starterpack in 2007. It's Rob Harley's Music Store. Personally, I don't like it anymore and would improve it immediately.
This room has only been used once in the second episode of the #ManiacMansionMania trash spinoff Meteorhead.
What makes this show unique is the fact it takes place at the end of a legendary adventure, as the female elf protagonist (the latter is a rarity in anime) reflects on her experiences & memories during the decade-long journey with her closest companions.
The show is about love, regret, memories, moving forward, hatred & consequences of decisions. What I enjoyed about this anime is how each character had different perspectives—even hypocritical ones—& despite their flaws, they accomplished great things.
Another item I enjoyed about Frieren is that it is not another overpowered protagonist's show. While Frieren is powerful, she is also vulnerable (mismatches are the key to victory), as the show highlights during the numerous fantasy battles.
Many other characters in the show are fantastic, too, but it is best to discover that for yourself!
Although the show appears episodic at first, there is a clear destination in mind, & it is fun to watch Frieren & her new friends attempt to trek there on her journey.
I have way too many games to ever play, but still I can't help it. Today's haul: Othello (NES), Spinball (Vectrex), Colossal Cave Adventure (PS5), Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars (GBA). Read on for more details
So meine lieben, Lucy träumt endlich wieder schön. Was für ein cooles #Videospiel :-), die #Rätsel sind auch nicht zu offensichtlich (meistens) also eine klare Empfehlung von mir für alle #PointAndClick#Adventure Fans da draußen.
Happy #WishlistWednesday - here is the full scene art for the Broken Toy Cemetery, here to entice you to WISHLIST 'Sleepytime Village' - our forthcoming creepy point and click adventure!
Tonight I'll be streaming the point and click adventure version of King's Quest II... or should I say, King Saltine will be streaming their playthrough of King's Quest II.... I've lost my dang mind.
I'm not one for "New Year's resolutions", but I am one for overly ambitious projects.
For 2023, Project365 is "One New Game Per Day".
Given that I have 634 unplayed games in my Steam account and {mumble} unredeemed bundle Steam keys, there's a reason my unplayed collection is tagged "Pile of Shame".
I'll pin this to my profile, and give a brief summary here each day (or x, if I miss x days due to work or stuff).
I'll play 15-30 minutes of (at least) one new game I've never played before (or played less than 15 minutes of). I'll give every game at least 15 minutes, even if I hate every minute of it.
I'm also open to suggestions; if you reply to this thread with a game, I'll schedule it, or tell you what I thought of it.
One of the things that's come up is that I have a bunch of games that I've played once, and not touched again.
