I’m so sorry to hear what you have been going through 😔 I hope you’re able to get back on your feet soon!

@sharkabytes.bsky.social one you might be interested in as it was the fanzine that got me to try this game 😊

Game 56 finished and it’s Sir Noggin on the PC! An 8 bit style platformer with some colourful graphics and a huge sword! Only takes a couple of hours to beat but has some challenges too.

Game 55 finished and it’s The Room Two on PC. The sequel to The Room that I talked about a couple of months ago. More puzzles and the right length at 2-3 hours to beat.

Dare I ask how much that all cost 😅 but some awesome pickups!

Game 54 finished and it’s Coffee Talk: Episode 2 on the PC! If you enjoyed the first one it’s more of the same with some new ingredients, new characters and more branching storylines!

Game 53 beaten and it’s Alex Kidd in Shinobi World on the Master System! The game is full of charm and colourful levels, it’s not too long but until you learn the boss patterns and where to find/access chests it can be hard to beat. Definitely worth persevering on!

It looks like Pikachu has stolen Roo though?

I’m so sorry to hear of your lose. I hope you and your family are coping okay 😔

Game 52 finished and it's .hack//Mutation on the PS2! The second in the quadrilogy that I started last year! It's more of the same and I definitely recommend playing via an emulator instead of real hardware due to being able to save state in dungeons but depsite the repetition I had fun with it!

Game 51 beaten and it’s Simpson’s Hit & Run on the Xbox! An odd one, the license is lovingly used but the handling is a pain and there are some missions which screams we don’t want you beating this in a rental. It was hard to not throw the controller at the TV during those!

Game 50 finished and it’s Devwill Too Prologue on the Mega Drive. A homebrew platformer that’s surprisingly solid in terms of controls. You collect some upgrades but if you’re good at this genre you can get it beaten in half an hour.
