We made it! It's the weekend, and it's time to play--uh, if you have the time!
This week I've been putting off playing Metroid Prime 4 by playing Deathsmiles again. On the rare occasion I boot up my Switch these days, it's usually to play Deathsmiles.
Feel free to use the thread to discuss anything you'd like!
I still haven't played Deathsmiles despite hearing about it at least once a week since I discovered the joy of shmupping.
(Side note: I got my first true 1cc yesterday. Yay me! I say true because some games let you change the number of extends.)
This weekend we're finally replacing a dresser that literally fell to pieces. I'm pretty happy that my socks will get a new home.
I'm also making a list of blogs that I plan on supporting over ko-fi or liberapay because I think a lot of bloggers deserve a tip from time to time.
Glad to hear about the 1cc! Nice work! (Love the idea of supporting bloggers, too!)
