What a fantastic stream! Not only did I finish Road Avenger, I FINALLY played Time Gal and had an absolutely amazing time and finished it too!! Had some great conversations in the chat and had a general great evening! Keio Flying Squadron was also played but I only managed to get to Chapter 6.
On a crt TV is the finish screen for Time Gal on the Mega CD, congratulating the player for saving mankind and making the world a peaceful place again.

What a stream!! I setup Yumemi, faced expected disk problems, switched over to Road Avenger to only find out I was facing a console problem 😅 as my copy literally froze just before the end of a stage! Switching consoles proved successful until my controllers START button gave out 🫩 not my day 🤣
A bare ones stream window is presented, a game capture of Road Avenger appears to have frozen, the streamer looks on in horror, general information about the stream is present in the top right of the screen regarding it being a charity gaming challenge.

As much as I love Crazy Castle 3 (I genuinely do) it's getting a little frustrating further in, so I've been having some time relaxing a bit more with Breath of Fire on the GBA, it's allowing me to get some hours in on my @mndassoc.bsky.social challenge quite nicely! #gamingforcharity #gameovermnd
In a hand sits a black game boy micro encased in a plastic shell, being played is Breath of Fire, in the middle of a battle, Bob is lvl 4 and is facing some bugs.

Starting off today with some Crazy Castle 3 on the Nintendo Gameboy whilst enjoying my free birthday treat from Costa 😁 #gamingforcharity
On a table sits a tray with a slice of cake and a hot chocolate, in front of the tray is a hand holding a clear purple DMG Gameboy that is playing Crazy Castle 3 stage 7.

An absolutely huge thank you to everyone that tuned in this week, especially for all the donations to help out the lovely @specialeffect.org.uk Charity! We did it!! I finished Deep Fear with 50 mins to spare, allowing me to make a start on the atmospheric Enemy Zero!

Tonight we also have a special guest star!

Thank you all for those that tuned in for tonight's @specialeffect.org.uk screamteam stream!! I had lots of fun talking horror and gaming in general, we had some slow points and some ACTION! Not finished just yet though! I'll be streaming again tomorrow for the last part!

Thank you all for those that tuned in for tonight's @specialeffect.org.uk screamteam stream!! I did remember the ratio for tonight's puzzle, managed to get through an intense boss fight and an even more intense rush to get to the end of disc 1 with 20 seconds to spare thanks to some silly mistakes!
At the top of a screen is the numbers 21.76 seconds, a countdown in big red numbers above a crude 3D character in a room of pre-rendered textures.

Thank you all for those that tuned in for my @specialeffect.org.uk screamteam stream!! Whilst I may definitely be a bit less than 3 hours into the game, we killed a boss, we watched a friend die and we're ready for a puzzle tomorrow evening! Question is, will I remember 10.25!
A rather serious looking 3d character John Mayor from Deep Fear scowls at the viewer, he's very unhappy.

Ok we've upgraded to "Please wait" perhaps rather than try and play Deep Fear the real challenge for my stream is getting my PC to cooperate!

Currently hoping my PC will start back up in time for my SCREAM Team @specialeffect.org.uk stream this evening. Yes, I did boot my PC earlier on to stop this from happening. No, it clearly didn't help 🤣
In the middle of a completely blue screen sits a swirling circle and the words; "Getting Windows ready. Don't turn off your computer"

I've really gotta get with the program, but for now my fastest #SplashWaveRacing challenge time is 1'44"847 @sharkabytes.bsky.social @kitnibbles.bsky.social for PAL in AT, shall give it another go tomorrow after hitting a figurative wall this evening!

I was pleasantly surprised to have my copy of Farming Simulator 16-bit arrive this morning, I am an absolute fiend for simulators, so what better than having one that I could play on my CRT <3 very calming indeed, I'm halfway on affording my next map upgrade. It's simple but everything I wanted!
In a hand sits a boxed copy of Faming Simulator 16-bit Edition for the Sega Mega Drive. A bubble on the cover states that it's a limited green cartridge. On a large CRT TV sat on a shelf surrounded by various video game paraphernalia is the start screen for Farming Simulator 16-bit Edition, a lovely pixel farm scene with the options to Start a new game, load game, options and credits. On a large CRT TV sat on a shelf surrounded by various video game paraphernalia is the controls screen for a meg drive game, a pixel drawing of a mega drive controller explains various controls.

In a complete surprise turn of events (for context the disk drive mechanism is a bit bust and you have to tempt the floppies out so was convinced it was parts/nonworking!) it is fully working, and light years ahead of my MVC-FD7! 😍

I managed to find one of the later FD models this morning at a car boot sale for £2! I don't have high hopes of it working, but I'm excited to see!

Gosh that's so beautiful, what an absolutely gorgeous camera! When I found out about the Mavica a while back, I realised I couldn't resist buying one of the first models for those early digital looks, I even took it to Japan for photos. I need to take it more places!

Time for the final boss! That Mads chap was a demogorgan all along! Shaun has already gone down, and Berto is close behind! It's all getting a bit tense in our #GameBlast25 stream with boss music keeping us on edge 😰

Puzzle complete and we have now reached maximum implausibility and need to shut the fissures, the only way we can do so is assemble our past selves across the different universes and times to pull enough levers to close the fissures down!
In a card representation of a chamber sit pillars spaced out around the exterior, in the chamber is a figure of a Delorean and a TARDIS as well as our 28mm heroes In a card representation of a chamber sit pillars spaced out around the exterior, in the chamber area a host of 28mm figures, with two to a pillar, our heroes stand around a vortex looking spiral of which a figure stands in the middle

We find ourselves in a chamber, full of plausibility fissures, we can see the fissures take us to the different locations we've visited during today's session, it's a puzzle! Our first paper puzzle of our #GameBlast25 stream!

Now there's three sets of our heroes?!?! Not gonna lie, @monolithx66.bsky.social has gone above and beyond with this campaign for #GameBlast25!!

We're back in the void, out of a Delorean pops out a man, he looks a bit like a Doctor! We've got to go back again?! To the same time we did earlier on an hour ago in our #GameBlast25 stream 🙈

We're back in the Crystal Skull facing the Alien as we did back in 2023! But in our #GameBlast25 stream, our past selves have been so busy!
