games i've been playing lately because there's no work atm (partial list)

kick master (nes) - it's a game about a guy who's really good at kicking, so good in fact that when he levels up he learns cool new kicks. i'm a big fan of platforming action games that give you a bunch of moves to work with, and as nes platformers go this one feels pretty good. gets really hard near the end so kids couldn't beat it on a rental, might be able to 1cc it?



sword master (nes) - it's a game about a guy who's really good at swording, he doesn't learn more sword moves but he does learn magic? 😓 both you and enemies can block high and low and the boss fights involve a lot of careful spacing, it's pretty satisfying to get better at, even though jumping overheads kind of dominate a lot of enemies. has a dark and atmospheric art style and some impressive parallax scrolling. gets really hard near the end so kids couldn't beat it on a rental, probably won't 1cc this one because the last boss is heinous.

shock troopers (arcade) - a++ neogeo top-down shooter. love the metal slug-like mechanic where when you attack enemies at close range you do a special animation and they drop an item, very satisfying. dnb soundtrack must've really stood out in arcades. pretty sure i can 1cc this.



13 sentinels: aegis rim (ps4) - 80% twisty sci-fi adventure game (think zero escape), 20% real time with pause giant robot strategy battles. stellar presentation, beautiful art and music, it's been a very entertaining ride. doesn't have credits! 👎

What's the cool weapon and MAG to use in Nier Automata? I bought a little sword with a big red spot in it, idk if its good or bad yet.

it gets crit chance and crits do like thousands of damage, so eventually it's crazy good

Dragoon armor and Gae Bolg? That doesn't give you a jump attack does it lol

I haven't played MHW since release, maybe I should check back in on it

It gives you a jump emote that can be used to dodge attacks with very good timing

There were a couple of fun fire fighting games on SNES that I played a lot but forget the names of. In one of the ones I'm thinking of it would show you a map of the building/the type of fire etc before you went in and you'd have to choose which equipment to bring with you - it was cool. The other one was more anime and played better

it seems like an underused video game setting but maybe people burning alive bums people out

idk if you do anything like that in Firewatch I think I heard it's a walking sim type of deal

The more anime one got a sequel on the ps1 with sweet fire boss battles

This weekend I beat Lufia and the Fortress of Doom. DQ clone with a very high encounter rate and constant menuing to recover because it's impossible to get though a single random battle without someone losing half their hp. Recommend playing a real Dragon Quest instead.

I also briefly played Castlevania 64, up through the cool Resident Evil mansion.

And I tried the dlc challenge levels for Spelunker HD. It starts you with 50 lives and I ran out in level 6. There are 100 levels.

And last night when I was supposed to go to bed I instead took 1 run at Hard Corps Uprising with the dlc sword lady. Game remains great.

everyone talks about streets of rage (and rightly so) but yuzo koshiro also made some bangers for revenge of shinobi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ekCndckJfU. i had the version where you fought spider-man and when you got him low he cocooned himself in webs and turned into batman, which they had to patch out because it was too cool for the rightsholders.

lot of great slow walking ninja music in shinobi games
