Apropos of nothing, here’s a few indie games that blew me away lately (some may get videos in the near future)

I’ll be honest, a close family member is going through stage four cancer

Life’s been real tough lately

DK Bananza is also excellent

It’s even more free form and lackadaisical than Mario Odyssey and I am *here* for that

Don’t need to tell *you* this but…

Hades 2 is phenomenal

We need quality shows like Small Wonder back on TV

A robot maid girl who sleeps in a closet would really heal the nation

Pretty much want a Switch 2 just to play Hades 2 and Silksong on a bigger screen

And Bananza too I guess

Noticed my 9yo downloaded Disco Elysium to his switch

Not sure whether to be a good parent and tell him that’s for adults or be a *great* parent and let him loose in Revachol

Started a new game in Baby Steps for some more footage (SO many hats I missed) and I feel like a gosh darn speed runner

Whole areas that took hours, breezed by in minutes

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
