It's controlled by the d-pad in your controller instead of the analog. The trigger is technically the run button, but the way it's built, you can run in a straight line by only pressing it.

I feel like survival horrors could entirely justify tank controls if they did what Shenmue did, which is make possible moving towards any angle you wish with the joystick, but make trigger running in any direction a thing of maximum ease. It's the best case of split controls I've ever seen.

Finished The Excavation of Hob's Barrow. Excellent point-and-click Victorian horror with a smidge of Lovecraft. Feels like an Eggers film at times. Fully recommended for slow, cosy horror fans. I comment @cloakanddaggerg.bsky.social and can't wait for their next game.

Just finished reading the Hall of Records in The Neverhood.

I love this game and its enormous lore wall.

Had it on my account for a while! Time to give it a go.

I love it, didn't even know about this version of Double Dragon. Ever since playing The Crimson Diamond, I miss this sort of limited palette aesthetic. Might try and find some of this era's stuff on GOG.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is such a cool game. Following the guy who killed your whole clan into the afterlife, so then you can join forces with your entire dead clan to raid his fortress is just the raddest thing you can imagine.

It knows you're there and would like to offer you a fulfilling experience of an overly detailed Norman Reedus face.

Adventure game masterpieces. Wish Kojima went back to making these kinds of games.

Aaaaaand finished Herdling. Beautiful journey from beginning to end, always with a sense of worry over the flock. Amazing achievement.

It must be the work of Robbie Rotten.

Finished Princess Peach: Showtime. While a game that's much simpler in design than Nintendo's usual core titles, it's still very impressive on its variety of styles and gimmicks, and it delivers a ton of fun with the theater play sets. Hoping more Peach games can be made.
