My cute little puzzle game, Marshmallow in Fruit Land, is on sale for $3.75 until the 26th~! [Link]

I've only played a little of it, but I've enjoyed it thus far. I actually found sprites from it about 15 years ago, but had no idea what they were from; I just liked them. It was great to finally find out what the hell game they were in. No, right now, the budget's on lockdown, and probably will be at least until my lady is working enough hours to get benefits; her monthly premiums are currently more than an entire paycheck of hers, so there isn't much wiggle room.

I'm glad that you feel that way. If/when you ever feel like talking about anything, I'm here for you.

Okay, just as long as I'm not going crazy...er.

You seem like a Nintendo nut. Allow me to add you to my tap.

Agreed with the Devil situation. I've always found a few other bosses to be more annoying than him. Baroness Von Bon Bon was a slight example. But real-talk, I was really raging through Grim Matchstick and, god forbid, Dr Kahl's Robot!

In other words, have fun with those Zelda Oracle games. Those two are my most favorite Zeldas to play on the go. Even though I've yet to finish the other half of the whole story (I've beaten Seasons, but made small progress through Ages).

Since you haven't done the Color Dungeon yet and have the Magic Rod, it absolutely destroys the Color Dungeon boss.

Eagle's Tower is a doozy on the first playthrough. I think it's the one time I gave up for a while when I first played it back in '98.

Congrats on that Cuphead win!
I swear, when I beaten The Devil back then, it was extremely satisfying. I'm currently working on early Expert Mode, but I'll try livestreaming the run if my laptop can handle such a game.

Also that wait for the DLC is going to kill me. As per that E3 announcement just yesterday.

I suppose it is on the obscure side; it's almost well-known among the translation circles, but not much else. Engine, eh? I'm starting to wonder if I might take a crack at game design, myself; I'd probably be more eager if I had any kind of artistic talent. I live with an extremely talented artist, who unfortunately, has zero sense of urgency, so I can't really rely on her. But hey, good for you; I hope you sell a ton!

I wouldn't mind at all, and if there's ever anything you want or need to talk to me about, I'll always be here for you. I'm not the best at responding quickly - some days, I'm Cooking Mama; some days, I'm more Whiskey Mama - but a lot of people come to me to talk things out, and they always have my undivided and heartfelt attention; you would be no exception. Yeah, maybe something like this: [Link] but in a different color; I wouldn't go with green.

Hey, if you enjoy it, you enjoy it; no shame in that. I just don't feel the same is all; I'm not sure if that's a social anxiety thing or a self-loathing thing or a combination or what, but I'm currently trying to think of a nice way to tell my coworkers that I'd like to pass on next years confetti fucksplosion all over my desk. I don't want to hurt any feelings, and I do appreciate the thought, but I'd really just rather pass on the whole thing.

Oh wow; did I really not notice the stripes in the hair before? That's great! I like the other one, too; very seductive, but in a subtle way. And of course, since it's called Socks, I have to link this: [Link] My favorite living writer used to write for them, and maybe still does. Aw, what a cute little witch; I love her!

Well, what can I say? You got the old bag of wind blowing.

I certainly did! That's part of what reminded me of Sutte Hakkun, only yours is less blocky; motion seems much more fluid. Okay, good to know! I saw some other games I'd like to pick up there someday, if that is the case.

[Link] This is the hand towel that she bought for our bathroom. Okay, so ours is a pale blue, but you get the idea; she doesn't really care. I'm not ready to be completely out in person just yet, but some day, when I don't have to worry so much about money, I'll definitely get there; in certain circles, I'm the goddamn queen of sass. Oh, not me; if I had psychokinetic abilities that could keep it out of my way, it'd be absurdly long. I might even wrap it around my waist like a belt!

It doesn't include mine, but I couldn't be convinced to care about birthdays, to be honest. It's not even freaking out about being old - I don't mind being old - so much as it's a day when people pay so much unwanted attention to me. It's really not a big deal to me that I survived another year, because I'm pretty resilient; when the bombs go of - and they will - it's just going to be cockroaches, Twinkies, and Keith Richards and I fighting over the last pack of smokes. I've always liked the beach, maybe because it reminds me of better days that I spent on the island.

Very cool! You might be one of the few pop artists I actually like; there's something about your take on the style that really does it for me. I tried to make a Final Fantasy hack many years ago, but eventually gave up, mostly because I'm a terrible artist. I wanted to make everything from scratch, and I just don't have the talent or patience to do that.

Hey reminder I have a twitter account I'm very active on, if you didn't know! [Link] I have extended commentary on the games I am playing there, alongside screenshots/video clips where applicable! Also a lot about my personal life on there, but I'm sure all y'all on here would be most interested in hearing more of what I have to say on the games I'm playing, haha!

I guess they just made my playthrough a lot easier for me so I assumed they did for everyones sorry. I just remember taking most of the major bosses out really easily and fast with Super and Multi Bottle Rockets but it might have also been other factors that may have made it easier for me

Did you end up using the Multi Bottle Rockets a lot or did you just beat the game normally? Also in terms of for me I was originally planning on getting all the items that have a drop rate of 1/128 but after getting Poos Sword of Kings from the Starmen which took 2 hours I determined it wasn't worth it. So I just put getting all photos taken for my personal goal. Also I agree with the person below me Mother 3 is a pretty fantastic game its definitely on par with this one, but after Nintendo announced they weren't having the usual Virtual Console on Switch I'm losing hope for it coming any time soon.

Yeah, no problem. I'll definitely let you know when I play it!

You've got an SNES classic? I've been thinking about getting one since I love so many SNES games. Once you've played Earthbound, make sure to play Mother 3 next if you haven't before! Also a fantastic game.

That's adorable! It reminds me of a more action-oriented version of Sutte-Hakkun! Unfortunately, I'm relatively broke at the moment, and need to build up my funds, but it's on the wishlist! I've been browsing itch.io, too, since I never really knew what it was. Are the games there DRM-free? I saw some of the things on my Steam wishlist there, and I'd definitely rather buy them DRM-free, if that's an option.

Speaking of Steam, I tried to sign up for Steam Gifts the other day, and it told me that I haven't spent enough money to give things away. What is this: Breath of Fire 2's Church of St. Eva? BUT I SUCCESSFULLY REMEMBERED MY PASSWORD!

Oh, I'm pretty hardcore into the collection aspect, too, which is exactly why I only really like the first generation of Pokémon: the number of pokeymanz is juuuust right. I think they should've had no crossover between the generations, just starting over with a new set of 100-150 new creatures each time, because my OCD won't let me NOT catch all... however many thousand they're up to by now. Otherwise, I think I'd like it, since you can play dress-up and everything. Yeah, going to jail is bad, but going to Mexican jail is worse.

I certainly imagine that it can be, but when it comes to emotions, I'm not exactly playing with a full deck. Throughout my life, various emotions just shut themselves off (permanently thus far), so I don't have quite the range to be able to test that theory, even if I do have the license; we have a pretty open relationship, even if that usually just translates to her groping random women's boobs now and again.

She's really something else, that's for sure. I think the best part is that she dyed it rainbow the first time right before we were dragged to Easter Brunch with the conservative side of the family. I used to have mine pretty short, too, not that long ago, but it's pretty long at this point. If I flip it forward it completely covers my tits, and behind my back, it's most of the way down my spine. I'm going to stop it at waist length, because as awesome as it'd be to have hair down to my ankles, like some kind of over-the-top anime villain [Link] I think it'd drive me nuts to be able to sit on it.

That's lovely! Seems that we have the same favorite season for almost the same reasons; I love cinnamon, but I was born without a sense of smell, so I can't like it for that. People go batshit nanners over pumpkin stuff, and while I like that, pumpkin needs to move the fuck over and share; it's also apple season. As for the beach, I haven't been since we went to Aruba probably 4 years ago; it was neat, but the air was so thick that I couldn't really even breathe until about 1 in the afternoon, so my lady and I were mostly nocturnal. Also, they only had showers; shaving my legs was one hell of an adventure.
