There's now a long-form character feature on my blog about Mashu'ra, the little kitten demon that lives inside the main character's top hat in my novel She Hunts Demons.
There's now a long-form character feature on my blog about Clayton Simmons, the private detective partner of the main character in my novel She Hunts Demons.
Just about every example of Film-Noir uses a classic trope: the Femme Fatale.
In She Hunts Demons, this role is filled by a teenage girl by the name of Isabel Grant.
She initially presents herself to Little Miss Secret and Simmons as a terrified victim of the demon, Otto Vogerath, but she soon has them wrapped around her little finger.
Hello Mastodon! As it's a Sunday, that means it's time for your weekly dose of #TombRaiderRemastered! Today we're back in Peru taking on the Lost Valley, where things start to get a little weird.

Clayton Simmons is the private investigator partner of Little Miss Secret, in She Hunts Demons. He affectionately calls her 'the boss', because she's been a part of their agency longer than he has, though she actually plays the role of muscle, while he's the brains and face of the operation.
The half-demon protagonist of She Hunts Demons has no known name, but instead a series of nicknames. Her friends call her The Boss, Little Miss Secret, Little Miss or LMS, while her enemies call her lots of unpleasant things, the least offensive and repeatable of which are half-demon brat or simply brat. She calls herself The Hunter.

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.

Black Skylands is game number five in the March Humble Choice Bundle; it's a top-down pixel-art steampunk-themed... game. It's a category mash-up that's part-twin-stick shooter, part-open-world-action-adventure, part crafting-sandbox.
Within that mix of genres, I had trouble situating myself within the gameplay that I connected with it.
It's another game that I'm going to give another shot and see how I feel about it once I get a bit further into the game.

I didn't skip over reviewing the 3rd & 4th games in this month's Humble Bundle, I just decided not to add extra workload on what was already an incredibly exhausting week.
