Replaying Final Fantasy X along with the @geeksandgrounds.bsky.social community over the next 2 months. I’ve tried to play through this game 2 times previously & feel off. Both at different points and for no specific reason. Feels perfect on the NS2. Really enjoying it. Gonna see it thru this time.

October's game is Mouthwashing, and the episode with @miladyconfetti.bsky.social is LIVE!
The game begins with "I hope this hurts" and it DOES hurt: it also provides much to dig into regarding the capacity for harm and "taking responsibility"

Comforting level design choices, a lovely and narratively insightful soundtrack, and a compelling story make South of Midnight an experience worth having despite its repetitive nature and lackluster combat. Our review: pentopixels.com/article/sout...
