passion for video games, again since 2011. my praxis while i was studying art was mostly playing video games instead of going to exhibitions
(i played a good portion of the games here in 2023 but don't remember when i started playing them exactly, will try to change that from now on)

first (real) playthrough via android with fo2 exe
bloodborne pro skater 2
2nd day of playing: wanted to just play a tiny bit before bed, around 11:30pm...now its 3am...
honestly that this deckbuilder isn't fantasy/sci-fi based but rather plays on that "forbidden fruit" coolness of casinos, poker and slot machines is an immense alleinstehenungsmerkmal (i'm german and that word is way to perfect in this instance not to use it) and the reason why my extremely greedy -ss just said: f-ck it, i buy into the hype...and i don't regret it.
balatro sort of encaptures, atleast for me, slot machines and, in the players of balatro themselves, the mystical gaze of people playing with these machines in, for example, smoked in kneipen or even some kepab places of berlin (or any other place in the world). the sort of elegant but never tiring music, the brightness and shaking of the screen, the satisfying coin and card pop/draw sounds, the simple however extremely flashy art direction.
what i'm proposing here is sort of dark but:
knowing that games help with empathy, maybe this game isn't just a jolly good time killer. maybe it's a "risk-free" view into the mind of gambling addicts. those lost souls, staring into the grossly incadescent abyss of these obelisk-like machines, ad infinitum...
