Just beat When Them Demons Cry, a Higurashi-inspired Doom map. I was a little disappointed that the gameplay segments felt pretty disconnected from Higurashi (aside from Rena's hatchet being the melee weapon) but it's really pretty and overall a neat riff.

What do you MEAN dying to the final boss of Ninja Gaiden 1 sends you all the way back to 6-1? I'm breaking my no-savestate rule to leave a state at the start of 6-3

instead of making a media thread for 2026, why not try a media blog?
- retro
- stands out amidst a sea of media threads
- not constrained by arbitrary character limits
- encourages you to write more
