Can't wait to get working on that puzzle concept! Just got a few priorities to wrap up in the HOMECALL project first, but I'll post an update here on Bsky when I've started on the pool table puzzle mechanics ๐ฑ
As always, thanks again for the amazing art work @sylzayz.bsky.social !!! You rock!! ๐ฅ

I know right?! The most underwhelming game case to date ๐ Plus I had been building up my personal excitement towards this one because it had been sitting on my desk, factory sealed, until I got to it. When I finally allowed myself to open it, my excitement kinda fizzled...

I know right?! Plus, the most ironic thing is that this game had been sitting on my desk, still factory sealed, until I beat RS2. When I finally beat it, I was so hyped to finally open my next game that had been staring at me for the past few weeks, to then be slapped in the face with this ๐

Is it just me, or does the excitement of opening a new video game sometimes feel underwhelming these days...? ๐ซค

Link's Awakening for me as well, as a kid it was my first and only game on Gameboy for a long time too. Fortunately my brother also had a single game, he chose Mario Land 2 which was a perfect combo for swapping cartridges once and a while

What was the first game that was so "scary" that you had to turn it off and couldn't finish it?
Playing Dead Space back in 2008, I remember literally having to put the controller down at one point because my heart was pounding so hard ๐ฌ
I was impressed though and had to finish it, amazing game.

Hahaha! I know the feeling ๐
I really liked playing in co-op for that reason, each player focuses on their own science and tech, feeling less spread out. Does Switch2 have online co-op like on Steam?

I bought CP77 again even though I own it on other platforms because I wanna re-play on my Switch2, but it went directly to my backlog. Was it a good purchase? Yes.
