Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. The skill Zombie Officer Soul says "Jumping while taking damage restores health", but whenever I get hit while in the air I still take damage. It actually means you won’t get knocked backward by attacks - damage is unchanged! Too funny. #castlevania #gaming #retro #gba

I've continued my Metroid streak, finishing out Metroid Fusion on the GBA. Wow, this one was just as fun as Metroid Zero. I'm not even sure which is better. The mutating monsters and absorption of essence was a great addition. Fun game! What should I play next? #metroid #metroidvania #gba #nintendo

I just finished Metroid Zero Mission on the GBA. An amazing game and possibly my favorite of the series! If you're a retro Metroid fan, it's a must-play. As for my stats, I guess I missed a few powerups! #gaming #retrogames #metroid #gba #nintendo @omegametroid.bsky.social

In Metroid Zero Mission for GameBoy Advance (GBA) an easy trick to beat Mother Brain is stand on the tippy tip of her ledge, jump over her laser, fire 6 missiles, repeat. You avoid most turrets and circles. omegametroid.com/metroid-zero... #metroid #gaming #retrogames #metroidvania

I found an easy strategy to defeat Zangetsu in Bloodstained Ritual of the Night. Crouch in the door, lethal boots equipped, keep attacking.
This trick works in a lot of games! I've used this strategy in retro games like Golden Axe Warrior too. Bounding boxes! #gaming #PC #castlevania

I finished Oblivion Remastered. This was my first time playing through the game. It felt similar to an earlier Skyrim. This was a good game, but the scaling difficulty was a drawback. A wolf defeating a level 12 hero?! *shrug*
