Live in five with more Ghost Trick! twitch.tv/suchminutiae

This week in Grim Fandango on #SavingOften, @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I finally escape the underwater den of crime (and crimes) that is Year 3 and reach the last leg of our journey. The Number Nine awaits... https://youtu.be/qyhQIPzBpUs

Psychological horror is a good gateway drug for literary analysis because the text is so transparently symbolic that it compels the viewer to look beyond surface level meaning to have a basic understanding of what is going on.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Mallow's Courage

Say what you want about the Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games series but it gave us some great screenshots

Although never explicitly stated anywhere, I would like to assert that Petey Piranha from Mario Sunshine is a piranha plant variant called a Piranha Bean native to the Bean Bean Kingdom due to shared physical characteristics and naturally occurring speedo

what could possibly go wrong

Year 3 rolls on in Grim Fandango on #SavingOften! This week, @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I save Meche from a perilous situation and ruminate about what it is we actually like about these damned adventure games anyway. https://youtu.be/v9Py3koQ3sU

It'd be crazy if people were still making adventure games! Anyway, spellboundtraveler.itch.io/sandwichquest

everyone right now

Revisiting Reccetear This dialogue sure is dated to mid 2000s nerd culture

A personalized Valentine’s Card for Bibliophiles. My cartoon for this week’s @theguardian.com books.

It's deja vu in Grim Fandango on #SavingOften as @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I retrace our steps after a catastrophic loss of progress. Then, we reunite with some familiar faces at the edge of the world. https://youtu.be/fnFDk3vKj1c

Super Mario RPG comics #comic #mario

Bubsy is a better anti-mascot platformer protagonist than Gex because, even though both characters are smarmy and obnoxious, Bubsy games eventually embraced this characterization as kind of pathetic.

Playing the Dead Space remake, which is another phenomenal modern game that failed to meet some insane sales projections. Which is the fate of every AAA game now, apparently

This week in Grim Fandango on #SavingOften, @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I finish the last few tasks we have left before we can leave Rubacava! Then we wish we'd stayed. https://youtu.be/u17MzSeti64

One thing among many I loathe about the current political shifts is that it lays bear how many organizations cow to authority and how hollow their purported values can be.

Playing Prince of Persia: Lost Crown and it is a solid metroidvania that does the franchise justice, though what jumps out at me is that this feels like the first time the IP is actually drawing from Persian mythology instead of just making stuff up

Part 6 of Grim Fandango is live on #SavingOften! The Sea Bees want to unionize, but the cops are making that difficult. @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I need a lawyer - the best lawyer. So let's see if we can't blackmail him. https://youtu.be/wmspkOO7cw0

Right so I don't like to talk about the shit going on in the real world because fucking hell, just fucking hell, but sometimes it's necessary to reiterate: Trans rights are human rights, trans women are women, trans men are men, fuck racism, fuck homo/biphobia, and if you disagree go to hell.

Today sucked. Get you some games for free and relax. Here's ~150 picks and another 50 on the second tab waiting for details.

We're back with Grim Fandango on #SavingOften! Velasco's given us a few tasks if @prozdishere.bsky.social, @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I have any hope of getting aboard the S.S. Limbo. Let's see what kinds of adventure game sociopathy we can commit! https://youtu.be/a0Wplyuwv3E
