Even just the two hour drives between all the coastal cities is gonna be nice (weather is not meant to be TOO rainy), but I'm trying to divert to various mountains and waterfalls as well and save some things that are a little outta the way (Brecon Beacons, Llŷn peninsula, Holyhead) for another time.

I am now planning this trip as it's literally next week and holy moly there's a Lot of Wales. Optimising it to get in all the things I wanna do is difficult but I'm up for the challenge.

Other Picross games trying to make a focussed campaign are mid (except Murder by Numbers, my beloved, and Khimera Puzzle Island was short and solid Picross). Cinicross tried roguelike picross and was brutal, so demoing this game was a relief haha.

Played this at an expo and it's super promising. My gripe with Picross (and lots of rhythm/puzzle games) is there's no short term goal, it's often 60 hours of similar puzzles. I'm not massively keen on roguelikes but it IS a way to streamline the experience of playing increasingly difficult puzzles.

Feel so at home at indie events like this and I'm so glad they exist. Great selection of games. Played rat cricket and a great roguelike picross. And it was on a freakin' boat!!

Not only are certain games difficult to preserve in comparison to other media, but certain games IN VR are next level difficult?? Because there were so many attempts and emulation just isn't out there yet for the obscure ones from the looks of things. Niches within niches.

After enjoying the video games go choral concert yesterday I really wanted to try out So Let Us Melt But it's a Google Daydream VR game... for a specific set of phones between 2016-2019 that were compatible alongside a controller. So... you can't buy it and it seems a pain to play? What a shame 😭

Ancient Ruins from GG Aleste 2 but what if it's on the NES?? Maybe the most beautiful Game Gear chiptune ever made??? Tried to recreate it on 2a03 pretty faithfully but with a few fancy tricks here and there.

Can't recall off the top of my head but I trust. Reminds me that Shovelware on GB(C) also slaps (tbf they might be decent licensed games). Smurfs. Funny hippo guy. That NSync game.

I enjoy supporting obscure stuff but I swear regardless of that, sincerely, some of my favourite music is from the most random of games. SHMUPs of the early 2000s, the sicko VNs, shovelware for the SNES, sexy PC-98 games They didn't have to go so hard. Well, except for the sexy PC-98 games

I've spoiled myself on how Fire Emblem's three act structure works and it feels a lot less daunting now. I didn't want a 100 hour game and it turns out you can just have it not be that long. Cool!

Bought Valkyrie Saga on a whim as it was under £3 on eShop. Very fun four hours! Much exploration to see if you can brute force climbing with only a few jumps and a big tooth. Bit of a janky final boss but that fits the vibe. I understand there are many secrets but I'm quite content.

Wow, didn't know the writer of Hotel Dusk/Another Code wrote for a new game called Dark Auction. It's apparently about helping people bid on Hitle- sorry, "Dictator X's" estate? And... the people are like man, X was a cool guy. And some of the stuff you bid on was AI generated??

OG here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxCP... I've tried covering other tracks and kept trying to add more bass and samples but that kinda took away from the ethereal vibes? So I added a BIT more bass, some triangle lead with DPCM shenanigans to control the volume a lil, and some tiny embellishments.

Remembering the GG Aleste 2 OST and just holy shit how did they make it so good in those limitations. It's got some sick solos and rhythms, catchy regular motifs, and is simultaneously some of the prettiest chiptune I've heard. www.youtube.com/watch?v=36-I...
