A mid-year plan refresh! Your new plan sounds like an interesting idea.

Ooh! That's awesome that you'll get a Switch 2! We did not even try to preorder one. We'll get it eventually.

I've always been interested in those Becky Chambers books but I have never once seen them used anywhere, which I guess speaks well to their quality.

It's always funny hearing people talk about game mechanics and not know what the mean (I know I do this on here too). Congrats on transcending all the bears! 

I thought of you when the big government job cuts started happening. I hope your job stays safe.

I have a hard time trusting games that are reliant on RNG, since they can so easily cheat against you. But if they are not trying to get you to pay additional money, then it ought to be balanced for fun but it doesn't always work out that way. Sounds like you're having a good time with this game, so that's cool.

I'm finally back to playing things. I just finished Shadow of the Ninja Reborn, which is cool because I played the orignal NES game back in the day.

Skies Above sounded really interesting at first but, yeah, sounds like the gameplay loop is too short and samey to keep you invested that long. I listened to a Dr. Who audiodrama once about space whales that was really cool.

I tried playing the first Persona game on PSP back in the day and couldn't get into it. A big part of that was that I HATED the battle music so much. At this point I just remember that there was singing and I HATED the song. I would have to be scraping the bottom of my impressive backlog to give that game another go lol.

I love the zany Saturday-morning-cartoon vibes of Zak & Wiki but I'm a little hit or miss with the puzzles. The logic is often sound but sometimes I cannot figure out what they want me to do exactly. But the biggest frustration is definitely failing late in a puzzle and having to restart. But I'm gonna finish it!

It's too bad that Nintendo hasn't greenlit any Picross crossovers with their properties lately. It's always nice to have a good theme!

I've heard that Rogue City is one of those games that is better than it has any right to be. I'm glad it did well enough to get a sequel!

That is a dizzying number of games and demos! I hope you went past the first few levels of Donkey Kong for Game Boy. It starts as a straight port of the arcade game but opens up after that to a 100-level tour de force of puzzle platforming goodness. For my money it is the best game on the original GB.

I'm glad you finally got to play that Bubble Ghost game! Sounds like it's pretty fun too.
