You know I had to do this.

Screnshot from Persona 5 The Phantom X. It shows a list of guests for the Thieves' Den that includes Makoto Niijima, Makoto Yuki, Kotone Shiomi and Kotone Montagne. The list also has portraits of each character on the left side, the visitor levels on the right side as well as double arrow icons to swap characters.

Blessed by teacher, first time seeing a 5* dupe. As someone following the F2P route I'm never getting this lucky ever again.

Screenshot from Persona 5 The Phantom X showing the results of a targeted 10-pull. Among the different basic Persona pulls, there are three of them containing a single Leon, who is a 4-star character from the standard pool, and two Blitz, who is the newest 5-star character as of today.

After many ruined attempts thanks to rng (dizzy rng, enemies focusing their attacks on a single character...), I'm finally done with this. RIP Technician 39, won't be missed.

Screenshot from Persona 5 The Phantom X. It shows the results screen for Technician 39 with a total of 33306235 points, which is a new personal record and barely enough to get all three stars on this challenge. Below the score are the three target scores for each star and different button prompts such as a toggle for Skipping Party Selection, and buttons to exit and play the next stage, all on the right side of the screen. On the left side of the screen are Wonder on his summer outfit, and Merope on her Velvet Room concierge outfit, both greyed out and looking at the camera.

Perdona, es que estaba ocupado haciendo un doble KO

Captura de Blasphemous. Es la pantalla de muerte donde pone "Exemplaris Excomvnicationis" pero además también aparece el mensaje en inglés de expiación de culpa.

I was told this bug also happens on vanilla and it shouldn't last as long as it does here, but dang it felt so good haha. Sword Beam goes brrrrr!

ClovCG @clovcg.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

The reason why I decided to stream today. Yesterday's itch is gone :D

Screenshot from Blasphemous. The red silhouettes of both the Penitent One and Tres Angustias, a boss from the game, are visible on screen on top of a black background. This is the frame of the last hit on the boss.

Starting Flying Battery with a pretty clutch moment.

Partial screenshot of the challenge mode menu from the DA Garden Edition mod for Sonic 3 AIR corresponding to the time stone trials. It shows Knuckles next to a set of gold, silver and bronze medals and below a time of 0'12''76 on rainbow colors, which indicates it has beaten the dev time of 0'12''77, shown on the top right. Below the dev time are the times to beat for gold (with 25 seconds), silver (with 35 seconds) and bronze (with 45 seconds).

Been messing with Furnace Tracker lately, so as a way to learn the basics I decided to try and replicate Ecruteak City from Pokémon GSC from scratch. Not 100% accurate (also don't mind the name of the instruments lol), but I'm happy with how it turned out.

This is why you can't give me slopes right at the end of the levels.

GG! Twinrova here reminds me of this.

Frame from the original Sonic CD title screen where Sonic appears in a black screen looking at the player with just the right half of his body visible right before the actual game title and the background is shown. Sonic's arm is edited so he's not raising it to make his signature finger pose, which added to the lighting gives Sonic a kind of eerie feeling.

Shadow the Hedgehog is a game about friendship, promises and vengeance.

Ah yes, I guess rng gods blessed me yesterday.

Screenshot from Persona 5 Phantom X. It shows Minami Miyashita (code named Marian), a 5-star phantom idol on her phantom outfit, which is basically a nurse outfit including a first aid kit as her weapon, and of course a mask. Behind her it's her persona and beyond that a red background with a graphic of her code name on it.

First try at this screenshot so I guess it checks out! Signature ability: As Intended. "For the next 3 turns the party is immune to the negative effects of rng and marathon luck."

Screenshot from the gif of the post above. It says "What's your rpg class? First Trymaturgist".

The end-of-year gaming traditions are over. Achieved my first sub 3 on the Sando 100 with Shadow.

Screenshot from Sonic 3 AIR. It shows the final screen from a mod developed exclusively for the Sando 100 saying "Congratulations. Loops: 100. Total time: 160'36''47. Best time: 1'25''13.". On the bottom of the screen the speedrun splits show a total time of 2:55:01.9, which uses RTA. On the background, almost faded to black, is a frozen framer of the end of the level with the level clear results and Shadow celebrating on the right side.

Me thinking the 10 here was actually a number wrong or even 2 in binary because I thought this was part of the title of the cheevo. Turns out it's the number of points you get from that one haha.

A dialog from retroachievements with an icon with the number of the route (002) and a text saying "Unlocked: Prologue to World Conquest (10)" as in the title for route number 2 from Shadow the Hedgehog.

Felt funny today while playing around with Godot Engine.

A drop-down checkbox list for an option setting title "Music Volume" with two different options: "Normal" which is already checked, and "Loud" which is not checked but is highlighted.

Me to Makoto in P5X after pretty much single-handedly obliterating the 3rd palace boss while still being underleveled.

Picture of Super Mario looking at the camera with his right hand open and an edited image of a crown on top of it. There's also a caption on the top left that says "you dropped this".

The first day of my story route journey in Shadow 05 is already giving me content.

ClovCG @clovcg.bsky.social · 03/11/2025

Between this post and today I managed to lose my savefile (glad I went the F2P route) and I started once again, and this boss was actually soooo much easier with a proper team and 30 actions less than on the other time. Kinda mad, not gonna lie haha.

Screenshot from Persona 5 Phantom X featuring the end of the 2nd major story boss fight. The boss is already low on HP with Shun looking at him and ready to launch the scripted highlight attack that will end the fight. The boss has a dark red aura and is standing through a gray wall with golden symbols from which he comes and goes through during the fight. He's also wearing a purple outfit, purple wig and a golden armor set. The battle scene features a red cloudy sky, a circular golden floor and some big pieces of debris floating around the stage. The top of the game UI shows the order of turns of the characters in the fight, the boss health bar along with the buffs and debuffs, and the number of actions up until this point. The bottom of the game UI shows the chat icon, the different gamepad buttons you can use and its actions, the main party formed by (from left to right) the main character, Shun, Morgana and Kotone, and a text box showing Shun's highlight attack and its description: "Increase party's max HP (10.3% of Shun's max HP, up to 12000, 2 turns) and restore party's HP (9.5% of Shun's max HP). Deal Ice dmg to 1 foe (71.0% of Shun's max HP).". There's also the user ID on the bottom right corner.

Soundtrack for "The Swift and the Seething" movie in P5X. I'm laughing so hard.

ClovCG @clovcg.bsky.social · 13/08/2025

Yeah, I wonder who she could be... 🤔

Screenshot from Persona 5 Phantom X. The main character is inside Cafe Leblanc, a local restaurant that acts as the main hub and Ren's home in the original Persona 5 game. In this pic you can see both Ryuji (kind of in the background on the right side) and Makoto (on the center of the screen at the foreground), although Makoto is labelled as "Honor Student-like Girl", as if she were a completely unknown person. This is in fact true from the main character's perspective.

5. Lost Judgment Developer: RGG Studio Publisher: Sega Year: 2022 (Steam) Completion status: 100% Time played: 117h 31m

Kaito (the guy on the left) and Yagami (the guy on the right) perform a combined attack on the guy at the center of the screen. This is all happening on the street during the morning, next to a building and a tree. Both Kaito and Yagami have a blue aura surrounding them as well, which represents the current battle style used during this attack. Information about the main character's life bar, current style and EX gauge is visible on the top left while the enemy's life bar (completely depleted) and name is visible on the bottom of the screen.

ClovCG @clovcg.bsky.social · 02/06/2025

Not me looking at a speedrun of this game in particular to get through the Lost Judgment completion list faster.

Screnshot of Sonic the Fighters, which is featured as a minigame for Lost Judgment. It shows Knuckles at the center of the screen surrounded by stars in a room inside Death Egg II, which is the final stage of the game. Knuckles is chuckling with his eyes closed and arms crossed indicating he has beat Eggman, and thus, successfully completed the game.

This is what it feels to sink to a new low

Screenshot of Lost Judgment. The main protagonist is on a black background looking emotionally hurt and disappointed. In the foreground, on the very center of the screen, you can read the word "Ron" inside the area covered by a white circumference and a translucid art behind the word, indicating that he lost a round of Mahjong.

It has to be uploaded as a video for some reason.

4. Just Crow Things Developer: Unbound Creations Publisher: Unbound Creations Year: 2024 Completion status: 100% + All Achievements Time played: 12h 48m

The main character of Just Crow Things, a small crow named Crow, who is wearing a cowboy hat and a light blue scarf, stands on the counter of a bakery next to a croissant. This bakery is full of croissants behind the counter, which also has a cash register on it, making some of them not visible. The baker is floating over everything somehow. Everything has low-poly graphics, with some parts of the screenshot looking blurry and out of focus except the central area because of how photo mode works in this game.

Screenshot of Pokémon Yellow. The player is fishing on the waters of Cerulean City near the entrance to Cerulean Cave, protected by the NPC that looks like a royal guard. The color palette of the area uses blue-ish tints to match the city vibes and color reference. There's also a text box saying "Oh! It's a bite!".

One of the areas of Gris. It is a blue-colored forest full of rectangle-shaped trees with some of them being silhouettes in the foreground at the bottom of the screen. In the middle, the main character is running through some floating platforms made of water.
