Our first Caves of Qud run ended with a bang--literally. Season 2 is already in the works, & this time? We're doing a Loot-Through, where our gadget-obsessed Tinker, Poindexter, tries to survive with wrist fans and gyre irons.

Turns out trying to stop a mortar with your face is NOT a good idea. I'd say it was a noble death, but trying to be more honest these days...

ACE: Air Combat Emulator ACE: Air Combat Emulator is a Commodore 64 flight simulation game released in 1985 by Cascade Games.

This gem was my highway to the "Danger Zone!" And by "Danger Zone" I mean the "Lethally Crashing Into the Ground Every Single Time I Tried to Land Zone."

Blob bosses: mandatory in every game? Starting to think so... Not a complaint, I'm part blob, myself--thanks, pizza!🍕🦠

StarVaders really is fun and you should probably try it.

Look, you don't watch me for "expert play" or even "baseline competency."

You come for the moments where I equip my sword in the wrong hand...

Preparing to fire up my 🥔 of a computer to record another adventure with Havlap in the Caves of Qud! History's mysteries await.

As someone who can't afford new equipment, I, my wallet and my 2015 Mac are all very grateful for indie games.

In my 8 year-old mind, this was the equivalent of being Indiana Jones. #retro #indiedadgamer #memories #atari #pitfall #1980s #80s #activision

The single worst starting spawn in video game history? You make the call!

Oh Qud, why must I love you so?

"The Chatsubo was a bar for professional expatriates; you could drink there for a week and never hear two words in Japanese."

One of my faves. I hope they keep the tech retro...

Note to self: check your batteries BEFORE you shoot the big mutant goatman in the face.

Nearly a thousand hours in the game and THIS happens? QUUUDD!!!

FINALLY! I have nearly 3000 hrs in Slay the Spire, but I've only been serious about completing Ascension 20 in the last month. Level 13 is my first real plateau, but I finally broke through with Ironclad.
