Ending screen for Ghouls n Ghosts on the Amstrad CPC
Once again the Amstrad port went hard! This version of Ghouls n Ghosts finally done after 15 hours of getting killed by firebats 🦇
I miss this so much. E3. Nintendo being hype. The genuine excitement. All of it.

Next time I see Tom I'm going to call him an idiot for putting his game on this steep of a discount, so go get it while it's cheap lol
There are a lot of Easter eggs hidden throughout HDGG: Mega Man. This is the only one I'll ever tell you about.
TotK should have been DLC
After days of countless back and forth because of a false copy right claim, i decided I'm tired of waiting.
NEW VIDEO! Please enjoy my slow descent into madness.

Oooh, check this baby out, narrated by @hprshredder.bsky.social , written/partially edited by Dr. Lava, and the base video edit done by yours truly (though I handled everything related to VO edits if you must know).
I think maybe @freezer.bsky.social 's hands show up somewhere. Lemme know.
When you see "HPRshredder" and "Simon's Quest" pop up on the timeline and you know you've got to set aside an hour to enjoy peak retro game analysis...
Thanks, man!

I need all hands on deck tonight
I will check this out!
Within the first hour of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Samus is imbued with psychic powers. From that moment onward, I spent my 16-hour first playthrough wishing I had psychic abilities, too. Not because I want to move things telekinetically or see into the future, but because I wish I could beam my thoughts about Metroid Prime 4 directly into someone else's mind. Your mind. Maybe I wouldn’t have to talk about this game--because, frankly, I think we’ve all talked about it too much already. Instead, you could know—feel—my experience with the game first-hand. If I had psychic powers, you would know what it feels like to have actively, stubbornly, held Metroid Prime as your favorite game these past 25 years, and the self-inflicted expectations I struggled against in the lead up to Prime 4’s launch. And you would know how it felt for all that to dissolve the moment I viewed an unknown world from behind the familiar HUD of Samus’ visor. If I could share my memories with you, you could trace in yourself the same shape of the emotions I felt while exploring Ice Belt--my awareness flitting between the unease in my gut and melancholy in my chest. The sense of scale I felt seeing the megalithic storm clouds of Volt Forge’s skybox. My surprise that Kenji Yamamoto and Minako Hamano somehow found such an alien electric guitar tone, but also chose to feature it prominently throughout the soundtrack. The familiar compulsion to break every green crystal and return to locations to collect lingering items, long before the game asked me to. The way a single unimportant scan in a Lamorn shrine evoked vivid images of the species’ final hours. How else, than with psychic abilities, could I convey the way the dissipating mist in Fury Green’s Cargo Launcher platform never lost its novelty? Or how it felt to look up from the depths of the Great Mines, see the gray sky peeking through the broken rock hundreds of feet above, and think, “This is all I’ve ever wanted from Metroid.”
And if I could invite you into my mind, then you, like me, would also question if the only reason these familiar “Metroid-y” moments meant something is because they’re juxtaposed against my frustrations with the story; my disappointment in the brevity of Flare Pool and linearity of The Great Mines; my lingering apathy towards Samus’ companions and underutilized rival; my skepticism about whether this is the direction I want the series to take, if it continues. You would see how these highs and lows blend uncomfortably, echoing the unpleasant dissonance I felt between the oversaturated orange and purple hues of Sol Valley against the dense, dark, moody atmospheres of the on-foot biomes. Or the ways radio calls and escort missions impinge on segments of sublime isolation and engrossing visual design. Maybe after all of that, you, too, would struggle to resolve these contradictions and distill the totality of this arc into a succinct statement of quality, much I like am. Alas, I do not have psychic powers, so these words must suffice.

I beat Metroid Prime 4 a couple nights ago. 100% items, it took 16 hours and change. It did weird things to my brain, and I needed to write about it. So enjoy this unplanned meditation on the fourth Metroid Prime game.
Please repost and share it around :)

Finally caught up with @hprshredder.bsky.social's Doki Doki Panic in-depth review. To play on the video title: don't take such well-produced and thoughtful videos for granted!
Very refreshing to see someone approach these games as a curious and open-minded newcomer.
