stg design idea: in a game with shot type pickups, have enemies that fire pickups as projectiles at you to try to reset your power / give you a bad shot for an upcoming section

One of my favorite games of all time, a title I think about constantly and that has influenced me in multiple ways -- there's no excuse now, you all MUST lose yourself to kamaitachi

Talking games | Kamaitachi no Yoru

Losing my mind searching for answers in 1994's influential obsession simulator.

things have been kinda bad again lately, loneliness coming down hard, idk how much is just seasonal depression stuff but work break isn't helping much either. I also still dunno whether being on here is good or bad for me... I have had a few urges to pull off again, but that's maybe worse long term

it's nice to have played two games right in a row that really had me challenging my past perceptions of them. it's nice to feel that change just a little

a little addendum: this wouldn't have made it onto this entry even if I waited til tomorrow, but I finished up a play of katamari damacy this afternoon. always Liked it an awful lot, and the soundtrack is sort of foundational to my tastes lol, but I think Keita Takahashi's Trick finally worked on me

enjoying how many of the japanese-learning resources I have are like "oh you wanna watch anime. you wanna watch SO much anime. I know what you are." and I'm sat there shaking my head so very politely

I've griped in the past about how it plays compared to my dearly beloved, but I just booted up pocky & rocky reshrined to keep my hands busy for a little and, yep. this is probably the most beautiful game ever made. easily my favourite non 8-bit pixel art and it's probably not particularly close

i do kind of miss using backloggd specifically as a logging site. kind of want to be as far away as possible from all the social media-y bits nowadays, but having all the igdb-driven info + list-making for memory aids is so nice. i swapped to backloggery but it feels so barren in comparison 😭

opened up hugetracker to make / re-render some sounds for our jam and immediately getting wistful for all the half finished projects in here. I'm absolutely no music composer or anything lol, but I miss playing around with all the instrument settings and effects to make cool sounds
