Why the hell can't you double jump while standing still?????

I am genuinely shocked at how it ever got past any sort of QA. I was inadvertently killed by it so, so many times.

Has to be one of the absolute worst design decisions I've seen in any game ever.

Everything else about the game is very good, but I'm probably not gonna see the rest of it, at least until I try picking it up again :C

I'm not exactly sure it's possible to really express my love for this game. So, so many playthroughs, and yet Stardew Valley remains my absolute favorite game to return to over and over again.

In 3 days, it will have been 5 years since I booted this game up for the very first time, and throughout those 5 long years, I have made countless precious memories. Whether it be staying up until 4 am, discovering something new, or simply just enamored by how lovable everything in this game is.

Thank you, ConcernedApe. I am so so so excited for Haunted Chocolatier.

You have not truly lived until you’ve been down to your last pokemon against Leon, seeing him gigantamax, with you following right after, having the (unfathomably good) music on full volume, and just BARELY coming out on top with but a few hp to spare.

I am not exaggerating when I say I felt more emotion during this final boss than I have experiencing nearly all the art I’ve ever encountered in my entire life.

This game is one I started all the way back in 2019, when it first released. I played for a couple hours, but things got in the way, so I sorta just stopped playing. I then completely forgot about it.
A shitload of things have happened in my life these past 4 years, continuing this save file has left me feeling a lot of different emotions.
And finishing it left me nearly crying.

What is there to say?

CrossCode is an absolute masterclass of game design, and in just ~10 hours, its dlc manages to build upon so many aspects of the base game that I won't hold back in saying it may even surpass it. If you liked CrossCode, there is no possible argument I could conjure up that would make me confident in saying you won't like A New Home.

As I was fighting a certain incredibly difficult end-game boss, getting further and further each attempt, I found myself thinking but one thing:



"God I fucking love video games"

I honestly don’t know what I’m supposed to feel playing this game.
Deltatraveller advertises itself as a silly fangame centered around “What if Kris and Susie suddenly appeared in undertale?!” And, thinking that was a fun premise, I tried the game out. At some point through it, however, I began questioning what this game is trying to actually be.
Deltatraveller keeps attempting serious and honest story beats and character moments, and it REALLY clashes with the comedy aspect. It’s difficult to take the story seriously, and it’s difficult to just let yourself revel in the absurdity of the bits.

Fucking sucks giving this 2 stars. There’s obviously a lot of love that’s gone into this free fangame, but I just don’t really have that much fun with it.
