Thank you. I really appreciate what you're trying to build and the work you do. I'm impressed

Surely, Baba Is You is horrible and awful! By which I mean very good. And either unreasonably hard or maybe I'm stupid. Avoid at all costs!

I'm sorry, I agree with you.

Fascinating. I do too, in a way - I find it helps to think about what help I need, in a way that is quite prayer-like (I believe ). For me, it's a way of reminding myself that I don't have to fix everything myself, not even in my own life. Sometimes good things happen for no reason.

Yes, I believe that's a part of it. Just the act of formulating "this is a problem that I don't know how to solve, please help" sometimes starts some kind of problem solving of my own.

But another thing that "atheistic prayer" does for me is that if/when that thing happens, I'm more likely to notice it. And a problem dissolving by itself, or due to someone helping me, is something I really want to notice.

"There's just us". It's frightening. It's inspiring. Sometimes it's comforting.

Yeah. I approve of the idea of shooters where the intended audience is my 78 year old mum though

As far as I could tell, the only way to succeed was by getting a specific set of items, which gave you a chance at freezing enemies... A crown, a smoke something and I don't remember the last one. Feel free to give me a hint if you care to, I liked that game a lot and I would love to complete it

And yes, I recognize your user name! The owl ate the lamb after all ;)

Lost Pig And Place Under Ground

An old-fashioned text adventure, one of the best ones I've played.

Pig lost! Boss say that it Grunk fault. Say Grunk forget about closing gate. Maybe boss right. Grunk not remember forgetting, but maybe Grunk just forget. Boss say Grunk go find pig, bring it back. Him say, if Grunk not bring back pig, not bring back Grunk either. Grunk like working at pig farm, so now Grunk need find pig.

Check it out

To each their own, I love it though!

It's metal, it's niches all the way down!

I have no idea about any of these games but I want to play all oh them!

katana zero goes on the wishlist :)

These guys are properly medieval

It's black metal with a strong medieval flavor, banjo (?) and a bunch of wood instruments, actual songs - and quite nice production as well. If you enjoy both black metal shrieking and some silliness, this is a gem.

Oh, sorry to hear that. I can see how it would be migraine-inducing. But I'm glad that we all now agree that it's objectively good :)

Thank you (I'm starting the game right now armed with your advice). It seems I found a way to exploit the mechanics in such a way that I never really needed the defense (until the final stages, where I died every time), and so managed to ruin the game for myself. Well well, I'm serial cheeser, what can I say? I'll stick to the narrow path from here on.

I love the sound design of this game. I don't remember what they are called, but you know, the horrible bastards that give off some sort of squeaky balloon sound? Genius.

Thank you for your generous response. I'll follow your advice... I just wanted to say that it feels great that someone has taken this much interest in my Minecraft initiation!

Max Payne Although I wouldn't be able to play it since I use crap PCs exclusively

I love Zachtronic's games too. TIS-100 is one of my favourite games of all time

did you finish Ring of Pain? Because I've come to believe it's impossible... You have to be realistic abolt these things
