Fantastic game. My favourites were the twins, time traveller and the scientist.

The first one I saw.

E is now making notes. She's definitely my daughter 😊

Update: "This is AWESOME!"

Two kids playing Freddi Fish

Today I introduced our twins to Freddi Fish (Humongous Entertainment). Their first adventure game, and hopefully not their last ❤️

I forgot to celebrate my favourite Commander Keen game in December, so, belatedly:

Happy anniversary Commander Keen in Goodbye, Galaxy (DOS, 15 Dec 1991)

That's awesome. Happy New Year David!

Finally got round to watching this. I love that with every interview new things come out about the production. Such a nice, humble team.

Yeah, I found it difficult to articulate too. It was such a personal project - from the player's perspective and the devs.

I agree with this too. Though I absolutely loved Thimbleweed Park. But they are two different beasts really.

Completely agree.

Return to Monkey Island: musings on the ending My musings on Return to Monkey Island, finally.

This was a nice re-read. I'd forgotten all these thoughts and feelings. I'm a precious flower.

Happy anniversary, Return to Monkey Island (2022) 🥳 I was on holiday when it was released so I played it on the Steamdeck in a hot tub which was different.

I loved it. The ending was beautifully melancholic, relatable, and will stay with me for a long time.

Starting screen for the video game Unavowed

Hello gaming, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound... of Unavowed.

This is great. Particularly for Ron's tiptoeing around questions about the Secret.

David Lynch, Twin Peaks and Muholland Drive director, dies aged 78 Film-maker who specialised in surreal, noir style mysteries made a string of influential, critically acclaimed works including Wild at Heart and Eraserhead

Oh nooooo ☹️ RIP, David Lynch. What an incredible legacy.

It doesn't feel hugely relevant at the moment, but maybe there's just a lull!

Can anyone recommend a good retrogaming/adventure games/old games feed that isn't 90% Sonic or Nintendo posts?

Something that pulls in LucasArts, Sierra, that sort of thing.

TIA!

I'm on Tumblr now, by the way (piecesofkatecreates). Haven't got the hecky peck how to use it but feel free to follow me.

I should warn you that I'm using it pretty much exclusively for X-Files / fanfiction. Once I figure out what I'm doing.
