Tried a couple of classic NES shoot 'em ups -- Gradius and Life Force -- back-to-back.
And I just gotta say: if you beat either of these games back in the 80s/90s without emulation, know that you have my utmost respect!
I had fun, sure, but only because good ol' Rewind had my back lol.

I got a couple new Funkos. I don’t get a lot of these anymore but I like to grab one for my birthday and Christmas. They still make me smile when I look at them on my shelf 😃

If you're anything like me, you enjoy seeing a new indie, top-down Zelda-like enter the scene. And as it turns out, *two* of them dropped pretty recently: Isle of Reveries & Draco and the Seven Scales.
I haven't tried either myself yet, but the mere fact that they're a thing makes me quite happy.

Recently tried out Project Reignition, a fan-made PC remake of Sonic and the Secret Rings.
As far as 3D Sonics go, I still find Secret Rings itself very... okay. It's fine lol. Great music though, as per usual.
But this fan project *does* provide nice control modernizations & graphical upgrades!

All caught up on the latest Nintendo news. So nice to see how many of y'all are excited for stuff!
I'd say my highlights are Ocarina Remake & Kirby.
I'm in the minority that thinks most of the new OoT aesthetic looks pretty good, and open-world Kirby sounds like it could be interesting.

Hey, Bsky fam. Been a hot minute since I checked in. August had a lot of emotions attached to it, but y'know, I'm still hangin' in there.
Starting the Dungeon Crawler Carl book series has helped. Some of y'all spoke highly of it & I can see why! Strong "Lit-RPG" vibes for sure, and I'm hooked.

Kept tabs on this indie game for a while, but lost track of its release date. Pleasantly surprised to see it came out recently!
Skilled dev of a couple *great* Rayman fangames recently finished work on an original 2D Rayman-like:
Connie and the Essence of Chaos!
Rather cute & enjoyable so far!

Got in the mood recently for some Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped.
Crash 2 is one of my all-time faves, but I honestly can't remember if I ever finished this one, even a casual run (how I prefer to play Crash). So I felt it was about time to compare the two a little more in depth. And so far, so good!

Been reading "Console Wars" lately -- a pretty good book on the Sega/Nintendo rivalry of the 80s & 90s -- and that got me in the mood to do a run of Sonic 2, because why not?
I'll go on record with my hot take of preferring 3D Sonic to 2D, but this is still a classic for a reason. A fun revisit.

Recently started the newly released cinematic platformer Lifted.
I've heard it's the brainchild of a former Disney ride engineer & I totally believe it. So far it's rather breezy, very charming & visually appealing.
One of those games you play for the fun story rather than a ruthless challenge.
