Having trouble keeping focus tonight. So I’m declaring it an Open Thread.
Open Thread!
Cozy as Hell
I’ll be taking a break from video releases for the rest of the month to focus on my other projects. There will be a couple videos releasing next month, though they’ll be gameplay shorts. I spent part of the evening animating something a little less peaceful than the image above.
I did make a little progress in DOOM Eternal tonight; defeated the Kahn Makyr (not to be confused with the Karen Makyr) and now I’m making my way to the Icon of Sin. It was a nice, therapeutic run.
I’ve Been Given The Bird
I somehow managed to get past Chapter 11 during lunch… with a couple minutes to spare! Maybe I play better when I’m timed? Either way I got a couple of achievements, and I just finished up another chapter! I have Goffik Flappy Bird Power to work with now!
I’m three levels away from reaching the end! That will have to wait for another night. I’ve been grinding this game out the last few nights… time for something else.
Time For A Lil’ Makeover
Made some changes to the blog tonight! Replaced the RSS plugin that I was using for fetching my Mastodon posts with a more proper plugin, plus I played with the look of the site. I decided to lighten the colors up a bit since we have a Dark Mode to use as an alternative. 🙂 There are a couple more things I’d like to implement and change, but this will do for now.
I did get through another chapter of BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites, been playing it here and there in my spare time. Stopped on Chapter 9 tonight. This has to be one of the hardest Metroidvanias I’ve ever played hands down. I died so many times trying to get past pools of acid without missing platforms. It makes the Shantae series look like child’s play by comparison.
Dawning of a Dying Light
Got some cobwebs dusted off my eternal gaming backlog tonight, and kept it Spooktober themed in the process! Tonight I tested my mettle at Zombie Parkour in Dying Light. I made it past the first level, did a little city sight seeing and even grabbed a few achievements. The controls took a little getting used to, but it’s basically Dead Island: Parkour Edition (it’s even developed by the same company). It also has co-op and mod support! It’s also a Deck Verified game; I might have to consider adding it to my Steam Deck to get through it faster. I’ve already finished 9 games this year, and only a couple more months before the new one begins. Usually I finish 4, or 5 if I’m lucky.
I have a few other pix on Masto.
Evening Open Thread
I’ve mostly been taking it easy tonight. Too tired to really focus on one thing, and I haven’t been feeling so great today… feeling more sore than usual, and a little dizzy. Hopefully I can get through work tomorrow, then I won’t have to worry about it for a couple of days. I have a feeling this will be one of those died in bed weekends.
Open Thread!
Wandering The Spooky Land Of Evil Creatures
From our adventures last weekend. We had a fun time playing this!
Something Something Skeleton
For my lunch break I decided to play Breath of Death VII; a comedy RPG. I haven’t touched this in years, nor did I get very far on previous attempts. Something about playing it on a Steam Deck felt right though, aaaaaaaand my eyes are shot after a night of poor sleep. I’m hoping to change that tonight!
Despite being labeled Deck Verified I managed to get the game to lock up twice. Next time I play I’ll have to experiment with different Proton versions to see if I can fix it.
