Aha, it's a very valid train (👀) of thought, I feel - always very tricky for adaptations into such different genres to hit right with everyone. I haven't played this myself but saw bits on YouTube and it does look properly spooky - and there are plenty of games Sasha and I try that end up not tat!

Aha, the music is definitely one of the things I remember most fondly from Sasha's and my play-through of it, and this song sure is even more of a banger than I had in mind!
We have a vinyl of the OST and this gave me an excuse to whip it out and enjoy it a bit.

So for those wondering about the hoo-ha there is a well meaning campaign to boycott Youtube channels running ads for ICE, the American department of disappearing. Unfortunately we can't really control that, the pictures attached represent all our control short of turning off ads and views -> 0. 🧵

A Japanese ad for Pikmin 2 with rendered characters on a real-life kitchen tabletop with a tin of salmon and various things like bottle tops and can openers, and some other bits of household things being carried away by Pikmin. A cat is peeking up over the edge and looking amazed, potentially horrified.

Captain Olimar and a new form of strange life - one keeping a good eye on the tin of salmon being carried away.
What a cute ad for Pikmin 2.

Cooking Guide (DS) – In Retrospect

One of our covers, features Lum with her iconic tiger pattern bikini and long green hair.
A snap of our itchio listing gallery of covers.
A fresh heads-up that my partner and I put out a regular digital retro gaming and anime 'zine, Between the Scanlines, that not only aims to capture the spirit of those of the past but also preserve anecdotal memories.
Plus, it's a cosy read. 💜

Aww, Kit and I just finished Salt and Sanctuary, playing it co-op with me as the sellsword.
Kit played it in the past on the Vita, but this is her first time playing it all the way through.
Wonderful 2D Souls-like with such a compelling plot and world.

Aha, I can't remember if you played Death Stranding or not but a lot of the time when I'm down I try to go by the adage the protag often repeats, namely "keep on keeping on" - hope you keep it to heart yourself! 🐱

I do hope you've enjoyed it, Timmy, vague memories and nostalgia when firing it up recently quickly gave way to realising just how tough as nails it is, aha!

Hollow Knight feels like one of those 'special' games - played it in a flurry and went up to 100% (not quite fully complete since it goes up past that but yes), can't wait for Silksong!
