That’s One Hot Dinosaur

We made it a few more levels into Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light! Together we solved a few challenge tombs, and died everywhere else over and over again in a variety of comical ways that may hopefully provide some potential footage! There’s also a sliiiiight chance that we might have also solved areas in ways we weren’t supposed to… I’ll have to look up some gameplay footage just to compare. 😛

It’s looking like we’re not far from finishing the game. I only have a few more achievements to get and then I can add another one to my completed list! It feels so strange finally being able to say that I’m actually finishing some of these games. Between my Steam Deck and our Weekend Jam sessions I’ve been completing a large selection of stories, and setting myself up for plenty of new ones. More pics can be found over on Mastodon!

Tonight’s Distraction: Ion Fury!

Been sight seeing in Ion Fury the last couple of days. It started with me playing it on my Steam Deck during lunch, and then these last couple of evenings I’ve been uncovering secrets and destroying cybernetic wannabe jedi cultists. Apparently I drank 20 cans of soda, and I even earned a rare achievement for doing some extra exploring!

Another Bloodstained Sunday

Made it to a little over 80% completion tonight! I beat David Hayter (Zangetsu) in combat, and he rewarded me with his sword. I also defeated The Carpenter, thanks to Zangetsuto! I’d play more, but this is a short weekend for me. Most of my co-workers are on vacation, and they’re making me do the splits this week – I don’t get another day off until Saturday. As a silver lining that does give me a three day weekend, so there is that. 😛

I’m glad I was able to make some more progress, the last time I played it didn’t feel like I got very far. Now the next time I play I’ll know what to look forward to! New things to find, and probably more death and powerups!

Venus Flytrap Better Move Over…

For some reason playing all that Hades this week made me think about Bastion, it made for some very intense gardening. I guess this has been the week of roguelikes for me? (though this isn’t really a Rogue Like now that I think about it…) Either way I made progress, picked up a spear and some pistols, and moved between different battlegrounds.

Flying Deep Into The Purple

I came sooooo close to conquering all 10 zones tonight! Oh well… on the bright side this is the furthest I’ve made it so far. Give it a few hundred more deaths and I’ll get it! Tonight’s run had all the fixin’s; chain lightning deaths, siphoning energy from destroyed enemy ships, such upgrades, much enemy destruction!

See you, Space Cats.

MOAR INDIE GAMING

Wow, it’s Wednesday and I somehow managed to make a short video AND play three different games… and they’re all indie! Started out with Outland during my morning lunch break, then played a round of Hades and then finished off in Whisker Squadron Survivor. What can I say? I’m versatile. 😛

After murdering a green cube with my laz0rz I think I found The Matrix for mechanical insects. So far this has been one of the harder alternative routes to take. I still haven’t beat a run – I clearly need more practice!

This time when I re-entered the House of Hades, my faithful Doggo Cerberus was nowhere to be found. There were also a few other characters missing, and Meg was getting “Promoted” by Big Hades himself. I get the feeling I’ll find out why on my next playthrough! 😛
