Whatcha been playing?

Still on a break from elden ring dlc. This week I played the metroidvania called 'Islets'. Really fun and short game with Great movement and fun bosses. Def recommend checking it out.

Also been playing more Pokemon emerald rogue v2!

Lots and lots and lots of Pinball. I picked up Pinball M (horror-themed tables, such as Dead by Daylight and The Thing) and a vintage table pack containing a few digitized versions of tables that actually existed when I was hanging out in video arcades as a kid. (Most notably, Funhouse, which had a ventriloquist dummy head that mocked you during the game.)

I also picked up Yet Another Zombie Survivors, which is a Vampire Survivors-styled game with a zombie apocalypse theme. It is a BLAST.

Total cost of all of these was $14 bucks during the sale.

It's a good time to be a PC gamer.

oh man. I remember Jeff Bakalar of Giant Bomb had a real-life version of that Funhouse table (he was indefinitely "borrowing" it from someone who was sick of it taking up space). The stories he told on the Giant Beastcast about that dummy head staring at him in the dark of his garage...

Oh yeah. It's super creepy.

And even better, they accurately replicated the voice in PinballFX. It's the 80's electric robot voice.

The only downer is that, even though I only own six of the 125 tables in the game, it was still a 38gb download.

Which I'm fine with for nostalgic purposes.
