Whatcha playing!

I 100%ed Astro Bot in just a couple days lol. But really outstanding. Up there with Rayman origins as favorite platformer.

Now I’m kind of waiting for more stuff to be out. Super excited for the new Zelda and cautiously optimistic for the sh2 remake

    Lunacid, great lil’ game until you decide to try and get all the achievements.

    Ending spoilers

    The one thing I don’t really like is how all of the world building is more or less inavlidated by the classic “it’s just a dream bro”.
    Yes, the dreamer is supposedly an eldritch being, but I’d like to appreciate all the tiny little lore connections you can find without the looming threat of “this doesn’t make sense because it’s all a dream”.

    Like with skeletons.
    Why skeletons?
    All enemies in the game have some sort of explaination, from the simple “this is a fog beast” to “holy knights cursed themselves and became abominable horses, tainting vampire cattle and turning their captors into the puddle of harm that currently stands in your way”.

    But skeletons?
    They don’t have any explaination, unlike the mummies of the Temple of Silence - they’re just nondescript undead enemies where undead enemies thematically fit. The dreamer put them there, because it’s a dream.
