8 Xmas stockings finished! As my first piecing projects, I have learned a lot making these. They are nowhere near perfect, but will do just fine for the family.

The Xbone really struggled to keep up, frames dipping into the single digits, the sound getting crunchy. I persevered tho, and rolled credits... But it's got several endings, so I'll likely go back to it soon. It's got a good simple art style, and the sound design is great. Metacritic has it at 73, and that feels right. It's good, worth the 4ish hours, but def a little rough around the edges.

Wow. This debut game from Jumpship feels like the sequel to Inside. No surprise; Jumpship is co-founded by ex Playdead CEO Dino Patti. Play as a dad having The Worst day ever, trying to escape an invasion and find his family, acquiring strange powers along the way. Like Limbo and Inside, this is a no dialogue puzzle game. Unlike those, this outing feels unpolished. One hard crash that even crashed my Xbone. Several moments... 1/2

@sazemisery @StonePiggy Could have been 4, but the other 3 were helping πŸ˜‰ me play video games.

Getting this beautiful piece ready to be a throw blanket. I love batiks!

@Skyye yeah, pretty annoying πŸ˜€ They have their moments tho. Usually when they're asleep.

Late post. Here's 2 of our 4. On the left is Beans. He's being used as a pillow by Mack, his cousin/sister? (it's a long story lol).

More this evening. Hunter main hit lvl 64 woo. Still in Moria, lol. Have finished off all the "regular" quests except the leave this dank place already one. 3 more of the Epic Book quest chain (that prob lead to more so I got a little more to do). GF due home soon and needs to go to bed right away, they scheduled her close/open, boo. So I'ma hop off the PC, free it up for her or white noise. Think I'll get on the and some before my bedtime.

I finished "I Am Dead". 100% Platinum Trophy even. The ending was a bit.. odd. Game seemed to be leading somewhere to me but I assumed incorrectly. Wasn't bad, just not expected. Overall it was a fairly cute, cozy experience.

Time to figure out what's next up from the Backlog of Boundlessness.

UPDATE - counter.social is now back online after 2 hours of unscheduled capacity upgrades, including a 10th server added to the cluster. Woot.

Spent most of the day doing my best to ignore the US tire fire. Played for a few hours. Still grinding through Moria. Jumped over to I Am Dead in the evening. I'd have finished it, but my curiosity got the best of me and I started checking results. It's not as bad as predicted (don't trust those anyway) but it sure ain't great. Oh well, I'll finish I Am Dead tomorrow.
(the OG) for bedtime as usual. Got all the seasons on my storage drive lol. They're my bedtime white noise.πŸ‘

I Am Dead (, PS+ Extra)
Interesting take on the hidden object game. Play as recently deceased Morris, tasked with finding a new Custodian to save "his" island. As a ghost, you can see inside almost everything. Read people's memories for clues to find objects you need to awaken other ghosts to ask if they'll become the new Custodian. Bright cheery simple art style, cheerful music as well. Which is a little odd for a game about ghosts. Same feel as Spiritfarer.

I am here to be social and relax with like-minded individuals. The rest of the internet is full of political content and people obsessed with watching [insert entity] burn.

This is why I am extremely grateful for the filter feature. I can curate my feeds to reduce the noise, and give myself a little haven. Now if only people would use hashtags on their image posts instead of just a period...

I made more progress on my quilt. Then I got distracted and made a little quilt for Alien 😸
