You know how the refs go to Toronto for a review, but somehow it takes 5x longer than it should, and then they still get the call completely wrong? Same bozos.

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social My niece got to experience her first ever CRT gaming experience today. She loved Super Mario Bros, she thought Bubble Bobble was just OK, but she helped me #JustBeatIt on her first ever TMNT game, Turtles in Time. Fellas, we created a beat-em-up fan! Cowabunga out of 5.

"It's supposed to be difficult," they say. I retort, "Difficult for whom?"

Columbus Dispatch, I am begging you to stop putting this ignorant filth in my newspaper and on my feed or I am going to go elsewhere for my Ohio news.

I think the defensive play call was sound, but Lorenzo Styles Jr just had a really bad 15 seconds. That was his guy.

CrossCode might be my favorite indie game, but it has a rough, confusing intro before it sings. The combat, puzzles, and story are great, but the accessible difficulty options are a real star, allowing you adjust both combat damage and puzzle timing by 10% increments. 90% was just right for me!

Jason Schreier @jasonschreier.bsky.social · Aug 8

I've been replaying CrossCode (2018) and I think it's become one of my favorite games of all time. It's an SNES-style action-RPG inspired by Zelda and Secret of Mana set within a fictional MMORPG. Strong combat, good jokes, devious puzzles. If you haven't played it, you should

If possible, consider changing 3 things BEFORE you move all your stuff in:
1) walls - do you want to paint any rooms?
2) closets - do you want to install shelves/organization solutions?
3) floors - does any carpet need cleaned or replaced?
All of these are much easier to do in an empty house.

My go-to genre for getting out of funks like this is simulation games. Get lost in something like Civilization, Planet Coaster, Two Point Museum, Rimworld, Dwarf Fortress, etc.
