The image consists of a game review formatted as a form on a old piece of paper.

The "boxart" for the game shows a scarecrow with a flaming pumpkin for a head. He is accompanied by a crow.

The game is titled Pumpkin Jack, developed by Evil Raptor, is a 3D Platformer, was downloaded from GOG, and was played from September 30th to October 4th.

The Quick Thoughts section of the sheet says, "It’s always pretty interesting to go back to a developer’s first game and see how much they’ve improved since then. Other than that, it’s just an okay Halloween 3D platformer."

The gameplay was rated 6 out of 10, the story 6 out of 10, the presentation 7 out of 10, and the stability 10 out of 10.

The highlights of the game were getting the gun, some of the puzzles, and the gluttony boss fight.

Overall, the game was given a mixed rating.

#DREDGE #Steam #Gaming 🎮
The image consists of a game review formatted as a form on a old piece of paper.

The "boxart" for the game shows a boat sailing near a lighthouse as fish and tentacles are under it.

The game is titled DREDGE, developed by Black Salt Games, is a Fishing game with horror elements, was downloaded from GOG, and was played from September 30th to October 2nd.

The Quick Thoughts section of the sheet says, "Honestly, I just kind of wish this was longer, because trying to fish while keeping an eye out for any nearby dangers was a really fun gameplay loop."

The gameplay was rated 8 out of 10, the story 7 out of 10, the presentation 9 out of 10, and the stability 10 out of 10.

The highlights of the game were fishing at night, keeping a track of sanity, the serpent in the Gale Cliffs, the Stellar Basin, and the Bling Anglerfish.

Overall, the game is recommended.

Got through Acts 1-5 of Homestuck. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit, more than I was expecting to really. I’ll probably take a long break before reading Act 6 though, especially since it’s half of the webcomic. #Homestuck

Gameplay: 7/10
Story: 9/10
Presentation: 8/10

Highlights:
The Eyes And Mouths
The Painting Puzzle
The Final Chase

Finished a Subnautica replay pretty recently. #Subnautica #Steam #Gaming 🎮
----- GAME REVIEW -----

Title: Subnautica
Genre: Survival
Platform: Steam
Start/Finish: July 2nd – July 16th
Thoughts: 
Even after all these years, this is still an incredibly beautiful and atmospheric game. It especially helps that the progression is really engaging whether I was going deeper or scavenging wrecks. It wasn’t really as terrifying on this replay though.

Gameplay: 8/10
Story: 8/10
Presentation: 9/10

Highlights:
Building My Pretty Little Sea Base
Getting Jumped By A Sea Dragon Leviathan
(Almost) Beating The Game Without The Cyclops

----- GAME REVIEW -----

Title: Super Mario 64
Genre: 3D Platformer
Platform: sm64coopdx
Start/Finish: July 8th - July 15th
Thoughts:
I can definitely see why this was such a landmark tittle back when it released, especially when a lot of it still holds up extremely well.

I just wish the camera control wasn't horrible.

Gameplay: 8/10

This guy gets it. 👇
A segment from the article:

“I'm gonna know why I'm hating, and I think people need to realize that. It's the same pathway as love. It's an intellectual pursuit. It's lazy to just hate-to just be mad. It's the only criticism I get that genuinely frustrates me. People are like "He's just negative for the sake of it." Fuck you, no I'm not. I'm negative for very defined reasons that I will list at length. I have many reasons I'm negative about this. I can talk about them for hours. That's my job.”A segment from the article: 

“But whether the topic is games, tech, or whatever else, one truth pervades: To be a good hater, you must also, at your core, be a lover. You've got to be equally studious whether you're obsessing over something genuinely cool or something that deserves to be ground to pulp by a thousand garbage disposals. In that spirit, we also discuss our greatest hates and our greatest loves. And of course, we decide which JoJo from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is
the biggest hater.”

Just went through episode 2 of Fallen Aces. Pretty great, but definitely needs polish in a few areas. I enjoyed the new guns and the much wider levels, but found it unclear what I needed to do at times. Pretty glitchy too, with me clipping through the wall more than once. #MediaList #Gaming 🎮

Checked out Fallen Aces this past week. Good combat, open levels, and a lot of environmental interactivity? This is definitely my kind of game. #MediaList #Gaming 🎮

Watched Gru VS Megamind today. Pretty good overall, though it felt like there was another part of the fight missing at the end. #DEATHBATTLE

Been playing through Clay Jam recently. Pretty fun overall. Perfect game to play while riding the bus home. Missions can be pretty rough though, especially the color streak ones. #IOS #Gaming 🎮

Finished replaying Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. Still really good, even if the story/dialogue is pretty rough. I love all the ways you can interact with the environment and enemies, especially when it comes to throwable items. I hope it gets a remaster to get more eyes on it. #Replay #Gaming 🎮

Just finished watching Cell VS Metal Sonic. A great send-off for DevilArtemis. Fight was pretty good overall and I love how they showed off Metal’s power copying. I also thought that the analysis/conclusion was decent, even if not as good as some other episodes. #DEATHBATTLE

Finished Defunct yesterday. A pretty short & enjoyable experience. Kinda of reminds me of that one Landfall game about running down slopes to build speed. #Switch #Gaming 🎮

Been playing Mad Age & This Guy. Kind of a standard single player Bomber-man clone that gets stale really fast. Kinda frustrating at points too, especially with how random the enemy movement can feel. Probably gonna drop it from my backlog. #Gaming 🎮

Huh, didn't expect to find the secret level entirely by accident. Guide to get there in the alt text. #ULTRAKILL #FRAUD #Gaming 🎮
The door to a secret level. The enterance is blocked off with a "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" sign and barrier.

If you want to know how to get here, you have to go into the elevator in "8-2: Through The Mirror" and press "42412" on the pad. It will then take you to this room.

Just finished Bad Dream: Coma. It was alright. Not really all that scary, though that might be because I got the good ending. I do like the art though and the final 2 chapters are really good. #Horror #Gaming 🎮

Watched Ichigo VS Yusuke today. I liked the Hollow cameo and both of them not fully giving into Hollowfication/Mazoku. Kinda wish the death was a bit better though. Other than that, it was just a alright episode overall. #DEATHBATTLE

What's your favorite unused area in a game? Personally, my favorite is Room 274 from Undertale. It has this unnerving atmosphere, mostly due to the room just being a black void and the game over music playing here. that's not even mentioning the strange NPCs that wander around. #UNDERTALE #Gaming 🎮
