So my friend CK, with whom I do the podcasting, has redesigned her website and included a dedicated section for me/brony stuff. Which was really very cool of her. It's got my twitter feed, links to pony/geeky events I'm going to (or wish I was going to, so you should go to them in my place!) and some of my favourite channels/artists within the fandom (she even got some Youtube videos embedded using some kind of web-technomancy). It's cool to have a space to collect all that stuff, and I'll most

Never played it myself (yet), but I've heard good things and it was one of the earliest indie darlings.

Just FYI? Arachnophobes probably need not apply. Just a fair warning.

...

God. Dammit.

Now here's a rarity: an early-access game that's being given away for free. A 'kill the servers weekend,' as they put it.

And even more shocking, it actually looks really promising. A card-game with a really neat sci-fi take on the genera, and that's intentionally trying to avoid the Magic standard by mixing some RTS style stuff in.

I've promised this blog post and then I kinda forgot about it; luckily, one of the vehicles I got to work on today was a nice reminder. Like a sharp stick to the eye.

Just go figure out what the heck your Uplay login was, login, and there should be a banner near the top.

Not quite sure what the occasion is, but the offer lasts the week out.

So, three of my minor interests are military stuff, the culinary arts, and history.

So I'm tickled pink whenever I find something that's about all three at the same time. Like this dude, 'Steve1989MREinfo.'

As you can probably decipher from the name, he's a MRE (Meal Ready to Eat) effectionado. Ever played Metal Gear and had your ass saved by a Ration? Yeah, he reviews slash tries those things.

Jesus, ten years already? Gosh, I feel old.

Anyway, one of the best horror and sci-fi games ever made. The graphics still hold up shockingly well without being that taxing on your rig, and I've never seen a studio just completely grok sound in a vacuum on the level the now sadly defunct Visceral Games did in this series.

Definitely check it out, if you haven't already.

Chapter 2 of A Journey into Alchemy is in the works. I just wanted to let everyone know, since I do have a track record of dying and not respawning soon at all. When I say I'll do a chapter every week, the day of release will probably be different. It's less of a 7 day cycle thing, and more of a sometime between Sunday and Saturday each week. So, it may be a couple days, but I do plan to get it done! The first chapter is a little slow, but the interesting stuff is going to start

From the dudes that went on to make Observer.

Personally from what I've seen of both games Layers is the flawed but interesting prototype of the two... but hey, free game, right?

(Minor scares spoilers in the review.)

Steam store page. Offer valid 'for a limited time,' so be sure to nab it if you've got a thing for horror.

HELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

There's something going on at BronyCon this year where people are bringing physical books of their fics to sell! I'm gonna to do this! Yeah!

The question: does anyone care? I have a pretty good idea of what fics I'd include:

Know the dentist appointment I mentioned previously? The one I'm bad-ish enough to be looking forwards to?

Didn't get a reminder today, and my dentist has an automated system for that. Thus, worried, I checked my papers for the booking from last time.

It's... not August 8th. It's September 8th.

I somehow totally miss-remembered the damned date with a whole month.

See: Title.

Highly recommend you nab this one if you haven't played it, even if you've never heard of it.

It's one of those rare bits of media so good, that it basically killed its own genera for decades. Even today, you seldom see space-fighter games, and the very few that pop up almost unerringly get compared with this one gold standard game.

Heard great things about this one, though haven't played it myself.

(Can recommend that channel too, funny and insightful guy. Has pointed me towards some real hidden gems.)

Offer valid for ~72 hours.

Cross post from Discord:

Microids are giving away both Syberia 1 & 2 to hype up a forth sequel I had no idea was in-coming.

Pretty decent Adventure games. Used to be some of the prettiest in the whole genera, and I've heard some good things.

So basically for everyone who is wondering about me updating all stories with exception of
'Gray the Necromancer'
Well...
My muse just strikes hard and my insomnia allowed me to proofreading some more.
But i doubt i can hold this update streak for long on badicly all my stories with one chapter eatch.

As you see if you checked my last blogs, i started this year alone two new stories.

Work is hard, breaking the writer’s block is even harder. 2022 was a mess for me, but I aim to make my life in 2023 better, at least creativity-wise. I’m starting to get back into my writing groove, though. Possibly a new chapter soon, we’ll see.

If you’ve been waiting, bless you and your patience.

Heard some mixed things, but it's a very pretty little sports game. Definitively not flawless by any means, but there's some cool design stuff and locals in this game.

Free over on Uplay until the 23th. Just open the client, and there should be a pop-up near the top.
