Adrian Ricker

I hope you have a wonderful birthday, and that your trip was lovely. Safe travels!

Oh, me? Just a 38yo getting into Tamagotchi in 2025. Love this lil' guy.

It's possible it's been patched since, but Arco on Switch at launch had a lot of bugs that not only fully crashed my game a few times, but had effects on a few mid-game fights. It was ultimately fine, but worth knowing.

Really excited for the ep! This is a game I end up replaying basically annually ever since I got my 64 as a kid. I have a lot of fondness for it.

It's SO good! Really loving the Realis episodes.

I might suggest trying Beastieball. It's not trying to just make a pokemon again but with their own sprites (see: every other pokemon-like). It has it's own puzzle-combat, fun designs, and it's own fun energy while still feeling like the scope of the earlier pokemon games. I think you might like it!

Last Five GOTYs:

2020: Animal Crossing NH (runner up: Umurangi Generation)
2021: Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye (runner up: Gnosia)
2022: Elden Ring (runner up: Citizen Sleeper)
2023: Misericorde Part 1 (runner up: Meg's Monster)
2024: UFO 50 (runner up: 1000xRESIST)

It's a game I first played when I was like 10 and have replayed 4-5 times through my life. It's just fully fucked my expectations for games!

I LOVE City of Winter. It's such an interesting evolution of the idea, while also feeling fresh and new. Hope you can play it soon!

So excited for the full release!

Always happy to share Sphinx art.

It was such a fun game, and you two hosted the journey perfectly!

y'all ever see a take so bad you are forced to immediately go to sleep?

Enjoy your break! Just finished reading volume two myself, and you did an incredible job.

Adrian's 2024 Games of the Year

UFO 50 is my favorite game this year, but Arco, Animal Well, and Thank Goodness You're Here are all incredible in their own ways.
I wrote a bit about them here if you're curious:

Congratulations on the release! I'm really excited to dig in.

I just rolled credits on Beastieball, and what a delight! Y'all are in for such a treat, everyone should play this. I'm upset there isn't more fanart for these lil guys already!

No way, that's wild!

Spouse reminded me that @adrianricker.bsky.social and I's webcomic, Shamsee turned 10 years old this year, damn, wow

Halloween may have passed, but that doesn't mean we have to stop celebrating the spooky season! They're doing a ritual to push back the other holiday season.

Turn A fanart I did for a few Halloweens ago that I still like.
