It's the isolation. Quite a special situation that ruins my thinking thingies in my brainium.

So...was the game something special?

Remember...if everything fails you can always time travel. YES, THAT'S NOT HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME, yadayadayada. But if you can't be bothered to do all fishing today but don't want to wait three months for another contest...the option's there

The fishing contest highlights a lot of issues Nintendo needs to fix...

Started planning my island with the Happy Island Designer. Here's a first rough outline: I will most likely rearrange everything in the lower left corner. I'll start with my mountain of glory first. Definitely need to fit in a river somehow.

Oh, I will still go for 100% if a game is worth it. The Messenger definitely fits the bill. The collectibles so far were a joy to get. The platforming is incredible. Reached the twist and it turned into a Metroidvania game. Pretty nifty Whenever I reached a door to the shop I entered just to see if there was new banter to read through. I burst out laughing quite a few times Will get back to it later tonight

Yeah, it's pretty great. Noticed an error on my part. It's not a roguelite. It's just a deckbuilding RPG. Guess Slay the Spire slipped into my mind. For whatever reason.

Bought it this morning. Played it for about an hour. I love it. Spot on platforming action. Tight controls, sweet retro graphics and the music...oooohhhh that music. The writing is bloody hilarious. And this happened:

SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech complete! A short and sweet deck-building RPG. Two things stopped it from being awesome in my opinion: It's too easy. Most of the final 3 chapters' bosses are uninspired, to say the least. Enjoyed my time with it, though That makes 20 games finished in 2020 so far. Not bad. I completed 8 of them in the last 4 weeks. I wonder if the pandemic has anything to do with this higher than usual number. What to play next... Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is now my "in between game". Thinking about getting The Messenger. I could get the Switch version for 7€. Seems like a great deal. But then there's One Step From Eden. I've been following this game for quite a while and it seems right up my alley. Decisions, decisions... Edit: What the hell? Mods/admins, feel free to delete 2 of those 3 posts Edit²: I hid them. Not sure if that actually deleted them.

This is exactly why I will never play it. After watching videogamedunkey's video (which was hilarious) I didn't need to experience this game myself. I had enough after the 5 minute long video.

Thanks @Tales Think I'm set for a while with the amount of bells in my savings account

I see there are lily seeds for sale. Gonna get me some

Here we go

Ohhhhh, still have some turnips left. Mind if I visit, too?

HappyIslandDesigner In case you want to plan out your terraforming endeavours.

I should watch WALL-E again.

Indeed. The mechanics, writing and audiovisual presentation are keeping me engaged, though. Pretty sure I'll say the same once I'm done. Haven't played Heist, though.

Reached chapter 11 in SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech. No idea how far I'm in. Battles have been on the easy side even on the highest difficulty. Now that I've built one of my characters a support deck, my damage output isn't as high but I can survive pretty much any fight easily. I'm enjoying it still, but I could use with some challenging encounters.

Looks slick. Really happy with the design.

Avoiding everything FFVII Remake related but I will never avoid FamilyJules

Thanks to @Katie I managed to achieve this: Thanks again for putting up with my 3 trips to and from your island

Ohhh, I may want to visit your island sometime to buy some

@Katie On my way again Actually had 6 roses planted so I can bring you 3 @Esequiel Do you have rose, mum or cosmos seeds?
