Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 04/10/2026To finish this trio off, I'm also covering this series final IGAvania: Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. This game is more serious than the last two, not just in artstyle, but also in story. That said, Shanoa is probably the finest woman this franchise has ever had. 110
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 03/10/2026To follow this up, I'm also doing a playthrough of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. I thought this was bit more charming of a DSvania. A sequel story to Castlevania's one and only Sega Genesis game (the first Castlevania I've ever played, too) AND you get to play as a cute witch? No problem! 210
Reposted by Carls493David Piskorowski @pd-cgt.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Fleritz Preview is done! But, I wanted to fix some things before stealth-dropping on you guys. Stay tuned. Changed the tilemaps from skewed perspective to head-on. Fixed some visibility problems I was having with the game and made things 'pop' more imo. Sorry MM8 fans :/ 14210
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 02/10/2026October is back, so I have more Halloween-themed playthroughs to announce. The first of them is Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. Based on the Dominus Collection. Still the last in the whole CV timeline, you get to play Soma Cruz one more time after he learns he was going to be the next Dracula. 110
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Cuphead turned 9-years old today. So I'm starting a playthrough! TBH, I already had its first few vids ready for months, but decided to hold them off until now. What a great game of rubberhosing, devil dealing, and journalists that suck ass at tutorials!

Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 10/09/2026September 9th this year was Crash Bandicoot's 30th Anniversary! So I finally started a different Crash playthrough. It's The Huge Adventure for the Game Boy Advance. It takes a lot from Crash 2 & 3 and turns it into a full 2D game. Simple, but competent. Playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... 000
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 06/09/2026That previous hairdo was pretty iconic and memeable, for what it was worth. But now he doesn’t even have that on him anymore. Probably a sign of worse to come for him (I hope). 000

Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Star Fox does not need this kind of nonsense right now even if you rejected the Switch 2 remake of 64. I know these PC recomps and decomps are pretty hot to do right now, but the best ones lately had more work put into them than just “vibe-coding”. 030

Reposted by Carls493Christian Whitehead @cfwhitehead.bsky.social · 15/08/2026It is now 9 years since Sonic Mania came out 😱... another trivia nugget: at one point we had a screen that showed you the animals that were inside the Heavies giving them their personalities! It didn't make the cut (maybe didn't comply with brand guidelines or there wasn't enough time IDK) 5733031116
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 15/08/2026To finish off this bulk of Sonic playthroughs (for now), here's JUST ONE MORE RACER for the hedgehog. Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity! Something more modern!

Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Here's the other Traveller's Tales Saturn Sonic game I wanted to cover. Sonic R! Sonic finally runs for his races in this one! But you're probably going to be here more for the magical soundtrack this game has also by Richard Jacques but sung by TJ Davis. Playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... 000
Carls493 @carls493.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Next, I wanted to cover some of the only Sonic games on the Sega Saturn. Starting with... the Saturn version of Sonic 3D Blast! This was mostly an excuse to hear its Richard Jacques soundtrack in its original context. I like both Rusty Ruin themes, here. Playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... 000
