Started playing Batman: Arkham Asylum recently. I last played the game in 2015, and I've never played any of the sequels, so I figured I'd go back and give the original a go before continuing the series.
So far, it's held up pretty well! I'm not too great at the combat, but it's fun enough. Love the sort of Metroidvania style of the game—although maybe it's closer to The Legend of Zelda, with the different buildings acting as dungeons.
My kid has been unwell for 2 years (Long Covid), & watching her dealing with so many ups and downs & pacing herself whilst still learning & creating has been so impressive. She's doing well as a beekeeper, and now she's working with a friend to make Fortnite creative maps.
If you or your kids play Fortnite (the game is rated age 10 and up), search 'Slime Tycoon' for the most chill, fun, and wholesome gameplay experience.
This could and should have been a great moment in League history.
Instead Riot decided to monetize the shit out of it.
I ain't paying over 400 € for a bundle that shouldn't have been more than a hundred bucks.
This is insanity.
In other news, I gotta admit that I didn't think I'd like the new Rainbow Six Siege subscription Ubisoft announced.
Sure it's not a 100% cool and I am not the biggest fan of subscriptions..
BUT it's actually a worthy successor to the year pass I've missed so much, this year.
Plus it's actually worth the money, if you know you'll buy the battle passes, anyway.
At least if you pay the reduced price per year.
Morning Folks! Yesterday I tried the whole "get to 25 and then just do raids" thing for alt leveling in #WorldOfWarcraft#PandariaRemix and it is very much "not my jam". My appetite for chain-running raids does not appear to be what it used to be. This also feels like a strategy for maximizing bronze gain and not necessarily levels.
Hey Bandits! Hope you've all had a wonderful bank holiday Monday (if you're in the UK).
Sorry for the quiet one, today. I have been sinking myself into a family outing, but I have also been delving into Theme Park World and wanted to share some memories with you 🥰
I’m having way too much #RetroGaming fun with this Miyoo Mini+. Installed #OnionOS this morning which adds so many useful features. Nice theme switcher where I found a fave, which you can see in the video.
Also got hooked up with RetroAchievements, a website that creates and tracks achievements in these old #videogames. This was $70 well spent and I’m just getting started! (Literally… with the original Legend of Zelda)
Awhile back I had some odd physics ideas but was having trouble finding user-friendly tools to try them out.
Somewhere along the way I stumbled across Principia, & while the base version wasn't capable of what I wanted to try, I appreciated it regardless for being a cool, user friendly physics toy.
Sometime maybe I'll try modifying it to try out my odd ideas. Give it a look if you're into digital toys!
Mildly confused by @itchio's lack of activity around here. They have around 5x the followers here as on Bsky, but are more active there. Around 37.5x the followers here as on Threads, but some more recent posts there.
With the last one I suspect that may be related to how recently Threads came out, & with Bsky, I'm guessing it's a mix of recently opening up & simply not being a Facebook product making it more appealing.
The sit down version of Spy Hunter was particularly cool, not least because of the speakers blasting the theme from Peter Gunn right by your head, but the upright cabinet was far more common. I spent a lot of time playing this game very, very badly.
Today will involve much #laziness! I'm planning to do some #coloring, maybe some #painting of a few 3D prints and sitting on the couch playing #videogames ☺️
