One of my North Carolina regrets is not spending more time in Elizabeth city. It always seemed like both a deeply historic and yet warm place, surrounded by the splendid beauty of North Carolina's nature.

Sonic is Alone. at #SHC2025 is one of the most unsettling Sonic romhacks I have ever played and it proves that when it comes to horror less is often more.

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 3d

Sonic 1 The Super Challenges is a romhack featured at #SHC2025 in which players have to get through Sonic 1 playing as one of four characters in their super or hyper form. You have a timer and a set number of rings and once your rings reach 0 its game over. Highly addictive

Haven't played it yet, got to install a certain version of Sonic 1 first, but plan to later this week.
Each of the gals have their own move, which is nice. When going for character mods I don't want pallet swaps, but something plays different.
The creator also made it compatible with this mod.

This year's #SHC2025 includes a DDLC Sonic 1 Mod as well as a hack of Sonic 3 & Knuckles that includes some of the competition stages as one player zones. This SHC is looking like it is going to be a great one

The NC State Fair just released the new foods it will feature at this year's event and here are my picks for foods that I would try. Some look delicious, while others are so odd, i couldn't help but want to give them a shot, but that is the nature of state fair food.

Nature is kinky asf

As much as I hate to do this, as my "My Thoughts on SAGE 20XX" is one of, if not my biggest video of the year, I am going to have to postpone it. No video this week, been up most of the night with a fever. NGL not saying it is, but feels like dengue fever

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 9d

I attempt to play them all, but never do due to both space and tech limitations, but if SAGE gets any bigger I am going to have to refine my approach. I think I am getting a bit to old to play 230-250 games in a week.

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 10d

A lot of devs have felt like that this year. I can't say for sure the reason, but a lot of people are saying that new Sonic game that released during SAGE week drew a lot of attention away from SAGE this year

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 10d

Probably going to be mia on social media over the next two days or so, or not as active as usual. This video, is normally one that would take me a week to write, yet I only had yesterday and today to write. And all of this is due to SAGE 2025 having so many amazing games.

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 10d

My goals for this week:
-Get my video on my Thoughts on SAGE 25 out
-Get Next Week's video written
-Make space for SHC games

Big Mike @michael-dagreat.bsky.social · 11d

This is likely going to be one of, if not the most unique take on Sonic 2. You are off to such an amazing start! I look forward to seeing more!
