It&#8217;s a little rough around the edges, but it&#8217;s still so much fun and I hope that Game Freak makes another one in this style, but with just a little more polish. I was going to write a full review, but then <a href=\"https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/?p=9600\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"9600\">wrote about potatoes<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Horror Adventure<\/strong> (PS4) &#8211; So bad that my PS5 refused to run it. Quite possibly the worst $2 I&#8217;ve spent on an indie horror game, and I feel like that&#8217;s saying a lot! The gravest sin it commits is having terrible controls: your character doesn&#8217;t always move in the direction you press the stick, and the turning speed is atrociously slow and cannot be changed. At least it only took 20 minutes to play through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Banjo-Kazooie<\/strong> (N64) &#8211; I haven&#8217;t played this game since it was released on Xbox 360 back in 2008, and it was nice to re-visit. For the most part, it holds up pretty well, but some camera improvements would be appreciated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Sinking City<\/strong> (PS4) &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/?p=9655\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"9655\">Many words<\/a> <s>coming soon<\/s>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Donkey Kong Land 2<\/strong> (GB) &#8211; Perusing my 3DS library after the notice that the 3DS eShop is going to be shut down, I decided to finally play this. It&#8217;s the only Donkey Kong game by Rare that I&#8217;ve never played before. It sticks a lot closer to DKC2 than Donkey Kong Land did to the original DKC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>~ Progress Notes ~<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cyberpunk 2077<\/strong> (PC) &#8211; Side-jobbin&#8217;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>~ Game Over ~ Vampire Survivors (PC) &#8211; This game is still in Steam Early Access, so it&#8217;s likely not really over, but I&#8217;ve won a few rounds and unlocked everything, so&#8230; yeah.
