We finally managed to escape The Creche! But not without seizing the sun, or in this case, a weapon that looks the part. I had fun disarming the traps to get to it, in a good way. My lockpicking skills have pretty much ascended Astarion’s at this point.
Video Games
Booty Call
I didn’t have time to start the next bounty, but I did have fun hunting for booty and chests! Tonight I had fun taking my jetpack to new heights! (Pun Intentionally Unintentional). Currently backtracking in the slums, found a few chests and destroyed some generic baddies. It helped quell my vengeful soul this evening, though the tea might also be helping with that.
This Game Is On Fire
It was another productive day. Got off work and continued spring cleaning the desk area, and then rewarded myself with a bit of Kena while enjoying the scent of cherry blossoms and sipping blueberry green tea on a comfortable spring evening. I only played for about an hour, but I covered quite a bit of ground. Found a few more Rot, cleansed a couple areas and explored new found territory with even more to uncover on a future session.
I was going to do some animating tonight, but after spending most of the day on my feet between work and tidying I opted to futz about instead. It’s my weekend now after all, and anything is possible… except finishing a game in March. Oh well, at least I had plenty of adventures along the way with plenty more on the horizon!
Flying Air Overlord
Made two perfect runs tonight in Whisker Squadron Survivor! Even with the cursed choices I had to select during the run I still managed to make it through every zone, twice! Maybe one of these nights I’ll Twitch stream it! I was looking at additional Twitch plugins and I see that it has one for Whisker Squadron Survivor that allows the audience to choose my fate, when prompted of course.
I didn’t have time to do anything adventurous gaming tonight, been continuing my spring cleaning session. This time I cleared the upper part of my desk. I’ll probably clean the rest of the desk tomorrow, it has a lot of surface area to clean. That and reorganizing… I was looking at the collection of software I’ve accumulated over the years, and some of it I see no reason in keeping anymore. Programs like Adobe and older stuff that I have no reason to use anymore, thanks to better and more modern Open Source alternatives. Those will have to wait for another day, much like what remains on what feels like an infinite to-do list. At least I’m never bored tho. 😛
An Hour Of Alice
Made it a couple levels further!I got abducted by The Mad Hatter, and now I have to find him and kick his ass. I did manage to find a deadly game of jacks. It made taking down new enemies really entertaining, you just have to make sure never to play with them alone… for reasons. I might pick up on it again tomorrow, have to call it an early night. At least I got some more animation done. 🙂 Will probably work more on that after work tomorrow as well.
You’ve Got Spirit Mail
My motion sickness went away, but I’ve felt pretty dead and shaky for most of the day. Got comfortable the moment I got home, and continued my spiritual journey if only to prevent myself from napping (yeah, that’s the ticket). I collected everything in The Forgotten Forest, and I’ve parked Kena at Rusu Mountain for now. I also delivered some spirit mail back to the village and opened a couple new areas for next time. Not sure if I’ll continue tomorrow or if I’ll go on a different journey as part of my weekend getaway. So far I’m glad to be making a bit of progress, night by night and bit by bit.
We All Float Up Here
It was another successful day of spring cleaning. Dusted another area, and got my cups and bowls sorted. Now I can access them with ease AND they’re all in a more elegant spot. Then as it got dark I got a little more comfortable with Kena, some cherry blossom tea, and a candle to match. This time I decided to return to The Forgotten Forest to find what I missed during my first visit. So far I’ve managed to find a hat, a meditation spot and a few Rot. Already left a future note for myself in case another game distracts me… with my library you never know! 😛
The Nitty Gritty
Today was a productive day for getting some animation done AND progressing through a dark and twisted Wonderland! The Centipede Boss Battle was more annoying than it should have been, the hitbox for defeating him was tinier than Hank Hill’s Urethra.
Stopping in the Red Queen’s Kingdom for the night… just in time for a failed rescue attempt! We’ll see how that unfolds next time I make it in to play. I’ve focused enough on retro for the last few days thanks to Tomb Raider. This week I’m going to be giving some other games attention, and taking a break from animation and video editing. I have plenty of other things to focus on this week. Was thinking of getting started on some spring cleaning after work tomorrow. The dust is at a point where I feel like I need to do something, it’ll make game time a little more rewarding tomorrow night. Not sure if I’ll pick up Toren again, or maybe pick a Metroidvania… decisions, decisions.
Into The Underdarkness
As the sun set on another lovely lighted day, we ventured into The Underdark and completed a quest as well as a BBQ with a couple of Minotaurs. We’ve since gone topside, did some looting and called it a night. We’re planning to continue the adventure tomorrow, as is the current weekend tradition Yutram and I have decided to take on. It was a wonderful evening of Pizza and Magic that we both shared between two countries. Now it’s only a matter of time before the Watermelon Oolong Tea wears off and allows me to enter sleep mode.
SFM Update: We Be Cookin’
I’ve been putting along with my animation, slowly but surely. This probably won’t be finished until April, was hoping to get it out this month but I’m pretty sure it won’t be happening. The beginning sequence has been completed, now I’m about a third of the way through the end sequence. Yesterday I didn’t have time to work on it, but I did manage to export some audio for the next bit of animation in my lineup. That one will also be a lengthy bit of animation, and the ending I have written for it will take even longer than yesterday’s two minutes that I extracted. It’ll be fun once I get to it. 🙂
