Do you have any weird gaming / sound memory combinations?
It was 1998. My brother got Tenchu for Christmas. He also got the Phil Collins' Greatest Hits CD. Which is why I can't play this without singing Easy Lover.
I recently designed a Frollo dress after Daisy's boutique opened, I don't think it's as good as my Jafar one, but it's a start. #DisneyDreamlightValley
I've had a new game sent through today - Let Bions be Bygones. Film-noir detective point and click puzzle. It seems very dark at the moment but I'll be doing a giveaway for you Soon™
One remembers only an ugly, cruel game, but watching this played by an expert is so rewarding. Stunned to rediscover how much of my lifelong mental background-music playlist comes from this game. #videogames#retrogaming
A tiny visual novel which can be played (with slightly weird formatting) on Android or on a computer.
The concept of sentences in the game, but new words completely changing the meaning of the sentences when they're added after a couple of runs, is really excellent.
Highly recommended.
From the authors, there are content warnings for:
Violence and Death - specifically text descriptions of violent death with so
I fell all the way back in love with XCOM 2 on last night's stream. Do you have any top XCOM tips?
I always colour code soldiers. Red for Rangers, Blue for Specialists, Yellow for Grenadiers, White for Sharpshooters (to easily see how abilities can be used on the battlefield).
If all #VideoGames were offered as free OR paid on Steam, how would you prefer them? Would you prefer to play all games for free or would you prefer to pay for them to have them delivered to you via Steam? Note: Free ones are installed solo. No launcher, no achievements, no cloud save, no friends list, no Steam year-in-review, no hours played counter, no Steam Workshop, no Steam cards, no game decorations in Steam points shop, but you don't have to pay for any game, ever.
@ChrisBoren I mean it's software... You can apply whichever license you want. There are a ton of GPL video games out there. Literally, a ton! It's just that almost none of them are on Steam. I only know about Mindustry and Battle for Wesnoth. Both are well crafted!
Oh lovely, helpful people of the internet. I am Natalie Imbruglia'd (torn). Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun, or XCOM 2. I love both of these games, and one of them will be streaming tonight at https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits.
Some more incredible games on my playlist today. A little retro gaming and a little virtual reality! Though Resident Evil in VR still scares the PANTS Off me.
Castle of Illusion was mad but so much fun. I remember being in hospital for an extended period back in the early 90s, and this (and Ecco the Dolphin) really helped me through! One for the Retro Gaming fans here.
Started playing Batman: Arkham Asylum recently. I last played the game in 2015, and I've never played any of the sequels, so I figured I'd go back and give the original a go before continuing the series.
So far, it's held up pretty well! I'm not too great at the combat, but it's fun enough. Love the sort of Metroidvania style of the game—although maybe it's closer to The Legend of Zelda, with the different buildings acting as dungeons.
@LadyMarth01 You’re probably waaay past that point but one of my favorite moments in this game is when you enter the batcave for the first time. It’s just a one time thing but when it happens, it’s gorgeous. At least to me. Really just an effect but it’s so well done!
Also upgrade all your gadgets and keep button combo hints (or whatever they’re called) visible, those make combat way easier.
The following games are excellent, too. Larger in scale of map than this.
One of my dinky and unique bits of Elite Dangerous memorabilia. Pinched (not quite stolen) from the Frontier board room. And they'll never catch me mwahahahaha etc.
