Hey folks! I'd love to hear about what you're playing this weekend. I'll be digging into the Steam version of Earthion -- anybody else?

Now, about Game of the Month... the last GOM, post got no comments even though it was posted pretty far in advance of the end of July. It's totally fine, but it does suggest that people aren't really into the idea.

So I'm putting the GOM posts on ice while I invite the community to suggest some stuff that they'd rather see in its place, or a better way to handle it. Feel free to pitch in! I'd love to hear from y'all!

Have a great weekend!

I just picked up a copy of Earthion, and I’ll be playing it on my MiSTer shortly!

Excellent! I've been having a lot of fun with it.

It’s stunning!
