Credits rolled for DK Bananza. The number of layers stretched a bit, but the final few battles were great. Couldn't help but bob my head when the music started rolling.

New books have arrived.
One of them describes the staff engineer, a role that isn't commonly defined in the games industry.
The other is chef Edward Lee's book about his travels through American cuisine.

Credits rolled for Crashlands 2. There were some really great peaks in their humor. The music towards the last few hours constantly reminded me of a Muse track.

Been spending my evenings for the past week playing Crashlands 2. It's such a fun and goofy game.
Butterscotch Shenanigans sent out a newsletter with their Discord link. While tempting, I want to avoid spoilers. A feeling similar to the modern day strategy guide that I don't want to open?

Crashlands 2 released yesterday. A humorous survival crafter adventure.
I played it for several hours today on iPhone with a Backbone controller and everything works great. It's not apples to apples, but I appreciate the lighter weight and grip compared to portable gaming consoles.

Dead Talents Society was tonight's viewing. A low-key release on Netflix today of a horror comedy produced out of Taiwan about ghosts chasing fame. Very goofy and funny.

I'm thru the first few episodes of Frieren. It has a very gentle and heartwarming storytelling style, similar to Natsume's Book of Friends.

Ben: "It's not 'responsible' to set yourself on fire to keep others warm. Pete, I lived a long time and said a lot of stuff. You're gonna hold me to that one thing? I told your Aunt once I didn't like pineapple. I love pineapple! Why did I say that? I was probably in a mood. Anyway, go get laid."
