Gaming

I play a lot of genres of games and as a result like weird genre mashups, so Helskate really stuck out to me. Hades meets Tony Hawk's Pro Skater isn't a game I would have thought up myself, but it seems hella cool.

I just messed around with the demo a bit. There are some rough edges and no meta progression yet, but the core concept feels good. Landing a trick on an enemies head to proc stone effects and then following with a couple attacks to put them down is a super fun concept when you hit everything just right. A little bit of tactile feedback when you get hit and land things would really push the gameplay into the amazing territory.

I might give Backpack Battles a try. It doesn't look like my usual style, but I heard there's some good strategy under the surface, and I like that it's made with Godot.

Pacific Drive was interesting but short. Then went 0-7 on Tribes 3: Rivals. 🥲

Crow Country looks and feels really good. It's by the same folks that did a whole bunch of flash games back in the day, notably Detective Grimoire, which is getting iterations today.
