One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Needs a good 2d spiritual successor in my opinion!!

Kicking around in the starting area for a ton of time and then going north through many empty systems to suddenly realize there were entirely different - and vast - alien civilizations to explore remains one of the great holy poo poo moments of my young gaming brain.

EV Nova was what made me convince my dad to upgrade our G3 tower to OS X, because it came in a .dmg that I couldn't do anything with.

We didn't have a relationship with Ambrosia, but we really wanted a spiritual successor to EV too and were able to convince the studio heads to make one. It was available for the early-mid 2010s, then our studio got eaten and digested by a much larger one and now its IP is locked in a vault somewhere. All the games were delisted when Apple made a compatibility-breaking OS update and no one was in a position to resubmit them.

Yeah, Ambrosia was the other good Mac-focused game company (after Bungie) and they had a ton of great 2D titles in the 90s

it's really fun. the one thing i'd mention as a caveat is that the game is much less story-heavy that it might seem based on the marketing but the actual turn-based combat/base-building loop is really good, especially for a portable game

I think Twisted used EEPROM for saves so it should be good to go for a while, though I could definitely be wrong

I'm more curious if there is any water he DOESN'T like. Or does he just love every manifestation of water in video games?

Fired up Star Wars: Squadrons again on a whim, and I was pleasantly surprised that i could find multiplayer matches. Game is still a lot of fun and now that I have a new hard drive, I don't need to keep on uninstalling it to make room for other stuff. I definitely want to get back into it more.

Before she got into the tank, you see girls 'pretend' to pull their hair into ponytails, but they don't. That's what she did.

Keep in mind though that they still don't have even a vague timeframe for the PS5 release, so I'm not buying a cheap version until they do.
