Tremendous time podding this one. Also: if you're a fan of Obra Dinn or Her Story, don't sleep on Mind Diver (@minddivergame.bsky.social) - classy info-game stuff with an artful use of photogrammetry!

One Piece is based and a decent place to take some moral lessons from, but his understanding of it is idiotic (as well as his understanding of Jesus, another decent rebellious character, when he's not twisted into somehow being a metaphor for a billionaire 🙃)

This week I just played through all of Mind Diver. I really enjoyed this game. The narrative is quite wonderful with authentic and relatable characters. The system of solving through objects is excellent too, removing potential for UI to get in the way, or finicky text to be an issue.

Japanese singer Daichi Miura who made a song for Death Stranding 2 (www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJq0...) just played Mind Diver. I watched along with live texting and auto-translated chat. So wild!!! Greatest thing was how extremely nice the whole chat is, so wholesome www.youtube.com/live/9yUruwK...

Totally. Classic channels of discovery are so reduced or throttled for less mainstream games. No blame on people not knowing about those games!

Victor Breum (REVIEW MIND DIVER) @breum.bsky.social · 15d

As someone who just released a game that I thought would be a real treat for reviewers, but so far has only had a single review, I am feeling this majorly.

Really really hard to get any coverage for all non-major-hits right now, it seems. If, as you say, even Consume Me is not very covered...
