Thanks pal. Excited to lose dozens and dozens of hours again, after you got me on the Monster Train... train.

Does anyone know the game Gary keeps talking about loving? Is it Balatro?

Dunno if anyone has asked this question but I was curious if y’all have kept an eye on indie CRPG SKALd which just came out today. It plays and looks like those old traditiobal PC RPGs on Commodore64 and feels like a game Gary would probably enjoy.

Just wanted to say that the Rimworld creator being a controversial figure is based on one stupid rock paper shot gun article from 2016 that tried to paint him as a sexist based on what they found in the games code… he was quick to debunk the article with a lengthy post explaining why the code was the way it was. Not to mention the game was in early access. Not trying to have a go, but probably not a nice thing to propagate about someone

maybe not a “gritty” megaman per se, but it seems like there’s some class division between Light and the robot masters that could essentially cast megaman as a glorified Pinkerton.

I just got into randomizers by doing Hollow Knight item ones and I'm having a blast. They take a game I absolutely love and make me rethink traversal and boss strategy in ways I wouldn't have before not to mention the level of customization can make charm equipping extremely broken. Basically it just adds a new way to make the reward neurons fire. My buddy is also doing multiworld in Archipelago which is insane as it randomizes items across multiple games with multiple players. It was funny hearing him act relieved when we were playing a strictly HK multiworld and going "It feels good to open a chest and not be unlocking so and so's StarCraft 2 item".
