This panel is forever seared into my brain for some reason. He's a helper.
A panel from 8-Bit Theater. A guy with red hair and armour is dragging a prone guy with blue robes and a yellow pointy hat along the floor by the foot. The guy in red is saying "I'm a helper!"

remembering when I played Megaman 7 properly for the first time and found Protoman telling me how to find hidden areas, immediately felt compelled to throw this dumb picture together

Credit to the devs though, this is definitely a good start!
Option screen for Destructivator 2. Options are English and Cymraeg (Welsh word for "Welsh"). Cymraeg is highlighted. Green text below the logo reads "Cyfieithiad gan Morgan Roberts (Menter Caerffili)", which is Welsh for "Translated by Morgan Roberts (Caerphilly Initiative)"

3: Easy Delivery Co. (26/01)
A picture of Easy Delivery Co., showing a snowy night-time scene. To the right is a large building, and an overhead light illuminating a sliding double-door. To the left is a chain-link fence. A white pick-up truck is currently airborne, rolling to the side as a result. Its cargo, a box of bottles, is also in mid-air, flying off into the distance. HUD elements can be seen in a basic font on the bottom of the screen. To the bottom-left is a fuel bar marked as half-empty, and an energy bar with two pips in it. The player has $9.26, and it is currently 1:53am. On the bottom-right is radio information. It is partially washed out by the overhead light. Text reads "fm 88.1" and "cat.wav"

2: Fallout 3 (25/01)
A picture of Fallout 3. Shown is a picture of an industrial scene, with water surrounding a central pillar. Text at the bottom reads "Colonel Autumn" in red. Text in the top-left reads "Critical Strike on Colonel Autumn" in cyan with a cheery-faced person next to it. In the centre of the picture is a collapsing pile of green sludge, and to the right is a figure in dark armour, slightly cropped out of shot. There is a vague blur vignette on the picture.

one of my favourite pics from Code Vein - the fella didn't even blink.
A picture of Code Vein 1. Shown is a pair of characters in a stone interior. One character is lying on the floor in a supine position, who is staring with a red light in their eye in the vague direction of the other character. The other character is wearing a purple outfit with mixed shades of purple, and is winding up an overhead chop on the character on the floor with a sword that is bigger than both characters.

fiddled with that new character creator that dropped for Code Vein II. took me two hours to make something appreciable, and it looks way different in the CC Void compared to "outside on a generic cliffside"
Picture from the Code Vein 2 charated creator. Character is standing with a mountain, a tower and the ocean in the background, staring off to the right, wearing a purple outfit with red and yellow highlights. Picture from the Code Vein 2 charated creator. As before, but the outfit is changed out for a more gothic-styled dress.

A picture of Enter the Gungeon. A guy with a gun is shooting at a bipedal robot shaped vaguely like a rat's head. Inside the robot's mouth is a rat-person.

one down! the rest won't be so bad (maybe) seeing as they're not roguelites (mostly), and I have a newfound appreciation for Enter the Gungeon - it's still a bit frustrating, but it's easier to really GET the game when you don't have the genre-defining child taking up space on the schedule.
A "12 for 12 Challenge" post from a comics site titled "League of Comicgeeks", edited to read "12 Months to Play 12 games Recommended by 12 Friends". All tiles have been filled in, and one tile has a picture on top of the initial game tile, showing art for the following games: - Hylics 2 - Downwell - Paper Mario - Cycle - The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog - Signalis - 1000xResist - OFF - No More Heroes - of the devil - Enter the Gungeon (which now shows the Game Complete screen for the Convict) - VA-11 Hall-A

1: Enter the Gungeon (21/01)
A picture of Enter the Gungeon. Shown is a group of characters facing off against each other against a blue background. On the left is a blonde woman with a fierce look wearing an orange jumpsuit, wielding a sawn-off shotgun and a pistol. On the right is a rotund bald man with a wild-eyed look, large eyebrows, a black moustache and a suit with a filthy off-white shirt. He is wielding twin pistols. Surrounding him are three white-armoured soldiers with red rifles. The text identifies the rotund man as "The Crooked Suit: Black Stache"

today in Fallout 3: my kidnapping was interrupted by Dogmeat returning with sandwiches after two weeks of wandering the wasteland.
A picture of Fallout 3. Shown is a pulse of energy going off like an explosion from another room. The quest information in the top-left reads "Escape from Vault 87" A picture of a mostly white screen. The text showing "Dogmeat" and a dialogue window with a single bark shows this is a picture of Fallout 3.

the game decided to be funny and drop both items next to each other.
A cropped picture of Enter the Gungeon. A blonde character in an orange jumpsuit is stood on a platform resembling a revolver's bullet chambers. To their left is an oversized gauntlet, and to their left is a red balloon.

LITTLE FELLA UNLOCKED

I went out to find a Vault in Fallout 3, and my beeline put me right over a crash site that sent me on a massive questline to escape. Took an age but I got it done. I also got to shoot an alien right in the face.
A cropped picture of Fallout 3. Shown is a human on the left, with only their hands in the shot wielding a cartoony space laser gun. On the right is a humanoid alien. Their hands have three digits, and they are wearing a spacesuit. Their head is completely obscured by a blast of energy.

very normal section
A picture of Fallout 3. The world is coloured in a washed-out greyscale, aside from the UI elements which are still coloured a bright cyan. The picture shows part of an old cul-de-sac; large houses with picket fences are inside a wooded area, with the further background showing a larger fence keeping everything inside.

top value for a weapon named after a particular poem
A cropped picture of Enter the Gungeon. Shown is the Convict checking out a shop selling mystery items. One is named Casey, valued at 12# A cropped picture of Enter the Gungeon. A delivery note with a repeating red-and-blue outer border with several bullets drawn on it is split into two sides down the centre. The left shows a stick figure holding up a weapon that looks like a mix of a baseball bat and a shotgun shell. This side reads "CASEY". The right shows a treasure chest, a mail-order ink stamp and postage shaped like a bullet. This side reads "HAS JOINED THE SHOOTOUT"

Got a clear on Enter the Gungeon! Not a "true" win, I know there's some stuff to do before that's available. But this is a start!
A picture of Enter the Gungeon. Shown are the portraits of the Convict (wielding a shotgun and pistol) facing off the "Ancient and Venerable High Dragun" A picture of Enter the Gungeon. Shown is a rain of flaming bullets, with small pockets of safety every so often. The High Dragun can be seen in one of these pockets. A picture of Enter the Gungeon. The High Dragun is shown about to perish. A picture of Enter the Gungeon. Shown is a book spread showing character stats and a big list of items, including a picture of a revolver with a barrel bent backwards in a U-shape.

all in due time - for now I'm relearning the Duns of the Gungeon
A picture of Enter the Gungeon. The player is shooting a green ray at the Beholster, a floating orb with one large, angry eye, a weird mouth, and several tentacles all wielding heavy weapons. It is doused in a green toxin, fired from the player's gun.

2026 rolls around and so it is time to make a tweet to make notes of the games that I've beaten of this year! I'm not gonna be playing THIS one again in particular, but it's a reminder to play Void Stranger every time I add games to my "completed!" list.
A picture of the intro for Void Stranger. Shown is a large, perfectly square pit in the earth. A person with short, dark hair, wearing a mid-length cape, currently stands on the edge of the pit. The picture is coloured in a couple shades of green and a shade of dark brown.

launching in full screen did not work. It launched, but stayed minimized and sounded Jank, to put it lightly. I have made do with it being in windowed mode instead, and so far it has seemingly only blipped out once, when I deigned to press Tab.
A picture of a Linux Mint desktop. Several icons are on the desktop. A window showing the Fallout 3 start menu screen.

last time I played this in earnest was 2011. I imagine Proton will wrangle the game quite well, but I shall see how things play out.
