Herdling Review - Wordless Journey, Cherished Bonds - MonsterVine Herdling offers a heartfelt, wordless journey with your Calicorn herd, blending beauty, danger, and emotional storytelling.

I reviewed Herdling for MonsterVine!

It’s a beautifully rendered, compact experience with a poignant story accompanied by a gorgeous soundtrack. At the end of the game, I cried.

Minor spoilers threaded below.

Great, now I have to share my wedding anniversary with the death of Hulk Hogan. Can I not have anything?

Sour Soul by Ghostface and BadBadNotGood is my all-time favourite hip hop album. Would also highly recommend Run The Jewels for something contemporary and either Del or Tribe Called Quest for some classic vibes.

So I'm looking to ramp up my freelance work after my hours for a client got slashed. 💀

I'm available for reviews, mock reviews and guides, as well as LGBTQ+ and HoH consultation. I'm an award-winning writer with experience in narrative design and PR. aimeehart.journoportfolio.com

RTs appreciated.

I'm thinking about doing a video game journalism. Just as a little treat for myself.

I realise this seems weird without context, but context would take a lot to explain. Long story short, I just got clamped for visiting my dad in the hospital.

I can say this with some authority having spent more than six years working in the car park industry, Apcoa are a shower of heartless bastards.

I'm not 100% sure it's true, but I've heard that this whole trend came about because DXRacer started out manufacturing racing seats for cars, needed a new revenue stream, so they just stuck legs on their existing seats and branded them as gaming chairs. Very silly.

Armor King in Tekken 8

Right, that's Tekken 8 saved for me

I use a Mac for my new job and the built-in ability to convert webp to jpeg is honestly enough to convert me to apple products entirely

Why are so many people following me? I don't even do anything anymore.

Except the @startmenu.bsky.social Podcast, go check that out

Maybe I'll post about my farm animals
