@bb.wavelengths.online Thanks for highlighting Scarlet Hollow in signal check and ITA, it very much seems up my alley and I can’t wait to check it out!

Motion controls to activate AI, my two favorite things

If I’m being honest it’ll be incredibly impressive if Silksong, Hades II, and Mina the Hollower all nail it as ambitious, highly anticipated follow-ups to beloved indie titles (and WILD they are all coming out so close together, pending whatever this delay ends up being)

A demo is not representative of the entire game and on paper Mina seems even more up my alley than Shovel Knight — so I’m hopeful it just takes a little time for it to click. No matter what I’ll be playing it day one!

I’ve been anticipating the game since they announced it and… tbh the demo didn’t fully click with me. But I’m still very excited to play the full release and I hope it still makes this year. They said it’s not a huge delay so there’s still hope

Did you play the demo?

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

“If the car’s gone,”

“I’ll give you another cookie anyway”

“because I love you.”

Happy Columbo’s Day

I know that in practice nobody says Apple TV+, but the press release literally says "You can watch Apple TV on the Apple TV app on Apple TV" lol

Walking around after running 22 miles today (for the first time in years) feels like Baby Steps is real life. I could fall down and start cursing at literally any moment.

Played a bit of Baby Steps and it sure is… something

Now what the heck am I supposed to do

Hollow Knight Silksong Game Completion Percentage 88% Time 74h 42m 09s

I did the iggy

Update: there is no update, it’s still hard and I still haven’t done it

Can’t believe Pokémon Legends ZA is already here. Feels like its predecessor, Donkey Kong Banan ZA just came out

As is tradition, my wife and I are revisiting Mike Flanagan’s various Netflix series for spooky szn. First up is The Haunting of Bly Manor, which stars Benjamin Evan Ainsworth who will play Link in the upcoming Legend of Zelda film

What I presume is the second-to-last boss in Silksong is HARD

gonna be so mad if silksong doesn't even get an honorable mention brendon

I know there's been a lot of discourse about Silksong's difficulty and I don't begrudge anyone who finds it too hard.

But I absolutely love this game. For me I think it's better than Hollow Knight and even late in act 3, I don't think I've hit a moment where I didn't want to keep playing.

70 hours and 88% completion... trying to decide if I should go for 100% for not.

(and by "now" I mean "later" because it's about time to go shower and start the workday lol)

I'm at 87% completion in Silksong — all mask upgrades, all needle upgrades, so now feels as good a time as any to head toward the ending.

Wanderer Crest is best crest. Range is short but attacks are SO fast. Really helpful for demolishing a boss in the final phase — once I realize I’m not sure how much longer I can stay alive just go ham on the attack button 😅

I’m closing in on the end. What a ride.
