The #bouldering gym owner was worried.
I finally found a #boulder problem that allowed me to do a reverse mantel. I've always wanted to do this move, but I never thought it would be possible.

I love this!!!!
Heck yes!
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social , I #JustBeatIt Leap Year, an amazing puzzle platformer that punishes you for doing the one thing you are allowed to do. This is peak game design. Right now on Steam there's a bundle with this, Ooo, and Linelith. Deal of the decade.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social (and @indiequestpod.com ), I #JustBeatIt Linelith. Never a faster beat from hearing about a game on IQ to purchasing to beating. I'm not someone who says up past their bedtime (of about 8:30), but this game wouldn't let up. Loved it.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt The Corridor, a short first-person meta narrative game that feels super influenced by The Beginner's Guide (and who wouldn't be; that game is fantastic). Time well spent.
Your friends AND me.... I'm not sure I enjoy that company.
Did it work?
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JistBeatIt Mcpixel 3. Never has the swing from "I hate this game" to "I love this game" been so great. The intro tells you nothing. The HUD is confusing. But then, funny stuff starts happening and... Suddenly I get it!
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Super Kiwi 64. About as basic a 3D platformer as you can get while still actually being pretty fun. The jank stays in the aesthetic lane, keeping the actual mechanics pretty solid. Recommended for fans of any bird species.
I'm with you most of the time :)
What if the fastest way to send your #bouldering project… is to try the worst beta first?

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Viewfinder. Another stunner in the first person perspective puzzle genre populated by games like Superliminal, Maquette, Manifold Garden, and more. A must play for fans of the genre.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Wanderstop... Which is weird to post about considering the game's theme is relaxation and incomplete-ness. Overall, an enjoyable enough time, but the narrative shows its cards way too early and stretches the premise thin.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt How Fish are Made. Following Mouthwashing, I checked into the dev's first game. It's probably too short to be a true game, but it did have a trypophobia warning, which I ignored and quickly regretted. 3 out of 5. Time of my life.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt And Roger. This narrative empathy simulator translates the symptoms and feelings of dementia in such a helpful way. My mother has dementia, and this game has helped me sense what she might be going through. Thank you @kodansha.us and TearyHand.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Aperture Desk Job. More an interactive tutorial for the Steam Deck than a true game, but entertaining and witty nonetheless. Valve didn't have to put so much effort into this, but I'm glad they did. And hearing Nate Bargatze was a nice surprise.
I stopped asking what’s ‘correct’ #bouldering beta. This worked better.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Mouthwashing. I don't fully get it, but I do fully love it.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Öoo. This search action thinker absolutely blew me away. A new favorite. I played Elechead last year, and with Öoo it's confirmed that I'll follow Nama Takahashi anywhere.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Monument Valley 3. Overall, a wonderful blend of vibes and puzzles, but maybe less on the puzzle side than the previous games. Fine for me, but better gamers be warned.
If your #bouldering project feels impossible, there’s a decent chance it’s not your strength, your beta, or your mindset.
Maybe it’s that you didn’t brush the damn holds.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social , I #JustBeatIt Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution. Another Shantae game completed. These games are always good, always surprisingly funny, always charming, and always packed with a great soundtrack. What can I say? Shantae is great.
Beta Break cards are back in stock!!
Order today for arrival before Christmas.
Order at betabreakgame.com
Just one deck available. First come, first served.
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #JustBeatIt Ghost of Yotei. This series continues to be the best open world games in the business. See a thing, go towards that thing, get distracted by other things on the way to that first thing. I don't Platinum many games, but I did this one.
Does the idea of rock climbing intrigue you, but you don't feel like your body type is right? Check out this conversation between me and @suckatslab.bsky.social where we discuss why you, yes YOU, can enjoy rock climbing.

The coolest I will ever look while #bouldering or otherwise
Yep.
Any fellow #bouldering people feel this?
