After Metal Gear Acid 2, I wanted something a bit less brain for my #PSP #RetroGaming times, so threw in SSX on Tour which I picked recently.

I was kind of expecting just a straight port attempt, but it's a weird hybrid which has so far only featured courses from SSX3. The slimmed down control scheme is fine, but they stuck with the generic "build your own player" with very limited customisation. Kind of wish they'd gone back to specific characters like in 3.

Just watched the credits roll on Metal Gear Acid 2 on #PSP. Definitely preferred the first one, I think no. 2 somehow diluted the gameplay. Chain linked cards always seemed to catch me off guard, and whilst upgrades for cards is a sensible Idea, it just seemed to make deck sorting kind of hard work. Didn't really mix it up for the whole game. Still enjoyed it though! #RetroGaming

Wait?? Is Labyrinth Zone a perfect analogy for my job?

• slow to make progress
• often getting dragged in directions that I don't want to
• I can often see hazards coming slowly towards me, but unable to do anything about it.
• sustained by periodic bubbles (of coffee)
• an elusive boss that I just can't seem to catch?

Idea: we all get one extra day off a year and in exchange, that's the only day that apps are allowed to have a "How are you finding this app?" Pop-up.

I finished #Firewatch. I was right the last time: it took only about 20 more minutes to see the credits roll.
Sadly, that also only left me with the big reveal. I'm...maybe disappointed? I don't know. Everything resolves nicely, but I can't help but think that playing the whole thing in one or two longer sittings would have made it hit harder.
I basically ended the game the last time with one big puzzle piece and found the smaller second piece today. 😕

Creators of Metal Gear Acid 2: " oh yeah, and we're going to have a 3D mode with a special cardboard 3D viewer for it"

"Okkkkay.... Why?"

"So we can include 3D videos of bikini clad models of course... That are completely unrelated to the actual game"

"....."

I always forget that Metal Gear games are like this. 😕

I bought shoes for myself because I thought they looked cool/cute, which I never do, and they arrived... But they're like cycling shoes with the clip things on the bottom and now I'm both disappointed and feel like a fool

...and exactly why isn't there an epic open world game based on Disney's Robin Hood??

... Every so often I remember that I made some games for #arduboy years ago... And then I try and play them and... I suck at them. But some super awesome people made online emulators, so you can try them too! (Although I'm gonna say that they're way harder with touchscreen controls than the original hardware.

First up is 'Not Just a Hatrack' which was just me messing around with how platformers work. You gotta believe me, it feels tighter with clicky buttons. 🎩
