Nice! I have a soft spot for Baraduke especially!

Frankly, I'd be too shocked to respond!

And back home afterward.

 

Thanks to BillyClark!

Ah, but have you considered a cannon?

Maybe, but I think a lot of Sontaran might comes from sheer numbers: "In the Sontaran Military Academy, we have hatchings of a million cadets at each muster parade."

 

Another week in the books! Hope you've all been holding up okay.

As per usual, the weekend brings about another weekly open thread! All topics welcome!

I had a pretty busy week so I didn't get a lot of play time, but I did manage to squeeze in a couple of runs of Shikhondo: Youkai Rampage. So far, so fun, but I haven't really dug in.

How about y'all? Play anything interesting, lately?

 

From Steambase:

A revamped version of Tales Gear, originally released in 2007, featuring high-resolution support, new systems, and rearranged background music. A full-fledged 2.5D vertical-scrolling shooter characterized by the Tail Pod, an optional weapon that combines offense and defense.

For more information on the original 2007 version see this article. The game itself is no longer legitimately available anywhere, so this HD re-release is good news!

I mean I was already in, but that was just icing on the cake (if you will).

Ah, but hand signals are the equivalent of indicators/blinkers, and the part of the brain responsible for remembering to use them self-destructs as soon as your license arrives in the mail.

*THUNDERSTRUCK*

 

Over the course of my playthrough, I ran into a borderline comical laundry list of bugs, glitches, and errors: game crashes, textures bugging out, missing combat effects with visual artifacts, the camera breaking and not following me, missing vocals during cutscenes, dialogue lines attributed the wrong character, character vocals not matching up with the in-game script, vocals where actors flubbed their lines, character models snapping into default positions during cutscenes β€” the list goes on and on. When I reached the final boss, it was completely missing all of its sound effects. So much for an epic conclusion.

Score4/10

 
 

Same, honestly.

We talk a bit about Video System. A very competent vertical shooter with a certain goofiness - the game with the Dolphin!
