  • When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game?

    Jump

  • This was my exact answer too. So many conversations with Monaco and Esquie are genuinely laugh out loud funny.

  • What piece of media would you like adapted to another?

    Jump

  • Oooh. I want the cartoon mini-series Over the Garden Wall to be adapted into a stage show. With the way the episode are written, it already feels like it’s divided by scenes and acts, and it has some existing musical numbers. I think there’s a lot of room to have lighting effects and other traditional theater elements, and have longer versions of the songs to make an enjoyable version of the story on par with the cartoon in a new medium.

  • What the heck is wrong with my succulent?

    Jump

  • This lengthening of a succulent is a process known as Etiolation. It’s not getting enough light, so it’s stretching out as much as it can to try and get more light to each petal. The color change is also likely from the lack of sunlight as well. I’d suggest moving it to a window where it gets more light.

  • What's the worst video game you've ever played?

    Jump

  • Hard disagree. You just need to play it long enough for the Stockholm syndrome to kick in. Once it has its claws in you, you can’t stop playing it. Trying to figure out what makes this garbage puzzle box tick.

  • Anyone still giving a name to your car, and what is it?

    Jump

  • My current car is named Lizzie, after Tin Lizzie, despite the fact that it’s in great shape. The first car I had was a rusted out ‘93 Impreza we called Tin Lizzie. So when I got my newest car and the license plate started with LZZ, I took it as a sign to bring the name back.

  • What are your favorite Nintendo 64 games?

    Jump

  • Superman: The New Superman Adventures (AKA Superman 64). It’s a baffling time capsule of poor management, crunched game development, and lack of coherent vision (mostly due to the management thing). Is flying through the rings tough? Yup. Do the missions make no sense? Yup. Is there a charm in firing it up and remembering to be grateful you’ve lived to yet another day where you can play Superman 64? Yup.

  • Listen to your heart. No.

  • The huge life-sim Life by You from Paradox hits Early Access on June 4

    Jump

  • With how the past few Paradox releases have been, it’s hard to get excited about anything they’re promoting these days.

  • But do you practice trumpet every day?

    Jump

  • I’m so torn on this comment, because Christmas Wrapping is great, but so is Wonderful Christmastime.

  • Compared to Metroid Prime 1, does the Metroid Prime 2 environment feel bland?

    Jump

  • I think this is a problem with any sequel to a game that features multiple biomes as locations. Metroid Prime had a lot of distinct locations: a volcano, an icy ruins, abandoned villages and temples, a crashed ship/underwater section, etc. So if when making a sequel, you have to consider if reusing these types of areas will make it feel too much like the original.

    I do agree that the environment of Metroid Prime 2 is kind of bland, but there are at least some distinct parts I can remember, like the swampier area, or the dessert. I prefer that to every game being a march through the same cookie cutter areas every time.

  • What driving concept you feel that most drivers don't understand?

    Jump

  • My brother always likes to say “Remember, it’s All Wheel Drive, not All Wheel Stop” when reminding people about driving in the snow.

  • Today in "Things that exist instead of a new Castlevania game"

    Jump

  • Now have at you!

  • Relatives were visiting over the weekend and we played Tsuro with the kids. It's really easy to learn, quick to play, and has some strategy to it.

    Jump

  • My copy of Tsuro is so beat up at this point because it’s been my go to starter game for people who don’t play a lot of board games. I love that there is really only one mechanic to understand, giving new players a chance to only have to consider a few things in their turn.

  • Do you use any score tracker application?

    Jump

  • I second Board Game Stats. It’s got a bunch of great customizing options too. You can do things like set the scoring method to things like players vs. game, or if you are playing a game in small teams, you can add multiple players onto a team to collectively track their score.

    I’m also a sucker for data and stats, so it’s always fun to be able to look at previous plays, game statistics, player win rates, and other things. It is always a little bit of a bummer that it’s my score keeping record and my win rate is only about 30%.

    Jump

  • PlateUp! is a somewhat recent release that I love playing with groups on my steam deck. It’s a multiplayer restaurant sim (think Overcooked) mixed with a roguelite. It doesn’t have as fun unfair chaos as Overcooked and it feels great to play when you have a nice rhythm going.

  • Almost a year later live updates and dynamic island are amazing

    Jump

  • I really like having music/audio thumbnails in dynamic island while I’m using my phone. It’s nice to be able to tap onto the thumbnail and jump straight to the app playing audio.

    I’m really hoping for some more cool things to come to the dynamic island, but it all depends on if Apple continues it for the next model of iPhone.

    Jump

  • Gato Roboto is great. It’s a fun little Metroid style game which attempts some unique things and doesn’t overstay its welcome. Collecting the color pallets is also a fun concept.

  • Even old New York was once NewsLand/Edam's.

    Jump

  • Why they changed it I can’t say.
