Well here’s a month where I didn’t play as many games as I intended 🙁 I got a lot of other life stuff done, side projects, getting back to training with more regularity, but I wasn’t able to really bite into anything super deeply this month… I think it might be time to change out some games and make sure to get at least and hour a day of playing in again!
The Rogue Prince of Persia
This is a really fantastic Roguelite that I continue to plug away with on the couch. I think I spent most of my time gaming this month on this so I figured I might type a little about it. The animation is amazing, the music slaps, but the platforming and flow is what really stands out.
Weapon designs all feel really unique (I feel like Windblown succeeded in a similar way) and the displacement kick is an incredible feeling attack. I love the addition of storylines that can be completed run to run.
Lies of P
I hate this green swamp monster. I think it’s time to take a break from this thing
Animal Well
What a super neat metroidvania. There feels like there’s just so much here. I’ll probably keep poking at it from time to time next month but I’m sure I’ll be going to youtube to see “how deep this well goes” before retiring it fairly soon.
Hyper Light Breaker
Disappointment of the year! I’m leaving this here so I remember how bad this was. Sad bad Risk of Rain 2. Hope heart machine can get it together on Posessor(s)
