Comfort in the Dark: How Horror and Cozy Games Save Us

ziggychris @ziggychris.bsky.social · 23d

Really great to have one of my good friends on the pod, but also another chat about the healing power of games from the heart.

We may be only 8 episodes into this passion project, but it's an honour to have these chats and I aim to keep going for as long as I can :)

First week of the new NFL season done. I’m 1-0 in my fantasy league.
But the weekly waiver stress is back! 😅

The healing power of games is what we’re all about. So it made sense to chat with Gary Colman the Chairman of @gametherapyuk.bsky.social to discuss things in more detail.

Welcome to the latest episode of Saved By Gaming. 💜🎮

I won’t quite believe it till the window is safely shut, but with Newcastle buying that other fella and Jeff apparently saying no, could it be safe??

We just cannot sell Strand Larsen or there will be riots in the streets and I will lead them.

Also, Hugo Bueno must start next game for me.
Showed how much he deserves that spot with that performance.

I completed my first ever PC build! Go me!
Super proud of myself. And hopefully this will only help my productivity going forward 🤓

ziggychris @ziggychris.bsky.social · Aug 22

So my first ever pc build was going pretty good. I got it all together. Got windows installed and felt great.
Came back later to boot up and start my new of life only for no signal and no clue.

So close yet so far! 😭

More than a game: How Elden Ring sparked creativity and community

ziggychris @ziggychris.bsky.social · Aug 20

I desperately needed an upgrade. My old mac just can’t keep up with all my creativity.
So I have started building my first ever pc this week.

It’s a budget build but hopefully will be able to better cope and most importantly be open to future upgrades.

Fingers crossed! 🤞

ziggychris @ziggychris.bsky.social · Aug 18

Love these conversations and exploring the creativity that games like #EldenRing inspired in people, to the point it’s so positively impacted someone’s life is amazing.

Real conversations with real people. Every single episode. #savedbygaming #gamingcommunity

savedbygaming.bsky.social @savedbygaming.bsky.social · Aug 18

New episode day! Elden Ring has many facets. But saving lives? Sparking community?
Yep it does that too. As I discussed with my next guest in Saved By Gaming 🎮💜

I started playing #CallofCthulu off stream from my back catalog of missed games and so far it’s fabulous.
Really great atmosphere, bang on theme and loving the detective vibe. Wish I had picked it up sooner.

Totally. I love ongoing games, but some of the best experiences are short one and done tales.
Journey for example I remember doing in one sitting over an evening and it’s still one of the best gaming experiences I ever had.
Quality over quantity my friend 🤓

If that turns out to be how they truly ended the Cena heel turn then it’s truly disappointing. #wwe

#Lionesses did it again! Back to back European Champions!
And Chloe Kelly & Hanna Hampton. Just immense.

I mean… they have come from behind the last few games. Why not do it again in the final?

When will big studios learn not to launch games that aren’t ready.
Once again, all the fixes and update are too late to fix the damage done at launch.
