I played Mother 1 and 2 for the first time in high school (still need to get to 3, lost my save file.)

It's hard to convey how, like, it really IS that good. (S)NES games aren't supposed to make you cry, dammit!

earthbound is one of those overplayed, overhyped and oversaturated classics that you play and realise it's actually underrated

RaisonDetriment @raisondetriment.bsky.social · 7d

Playing Earthbound for the first time ever in 2025 is fascinating, actually. You're just a kid and the world's gone mad. All the adults are useless at best or trying to kill you at worst. Everyone talks like a crazy person. Everything's too expensive. Your next door neighbor wants to be a dictator.

Shoot, that would have been a good addition. It's definitely going in the spreadsheet.

If it's any consolation, the long-form version of the word is indeed part of this update.

WordScoop has been updated to version 1.0.3! This version makes a few small tweaks to graphics and visuals and a few big tweaks to the in-game dictionary!

Played the demo for this one at SAGE! Screenshots and videos don't do justice to how nice this game feels to play.

The Cave level has also been populated by NPC's! It's not as lively as the Fjord on account of it being, well, a cave, but you'll still meet some interesting folks here.

Development on Chapter 3 is going smoothly! This stage revolves around the wall kick move, which lets you climb up any wall in the game (so long as it's not covered in spikes.)
