Platinum #35 goes to #Cocoon! A trippy puzzle game to say the least. I enjoyed all four and half hours it took to complete and highly recommend the game. 💯 #PS5Share
Title screen for Cocoon. Start New Game, Load and Settings menu options appear. Shadowy geometric big-like creatures stand on lit pedestals in the background. Trophy screen for Cocoon showing 100 percent completion for PlayStation.

Kinda funny how much this anime has influenced my taste in music to this day.
A credits scene from the opening of Samurai Champloo with the text “Music: Tsutchie, fat jon, Nujabes, FORCE OF NATURE”. A stylized ink drawing, similar to Japanese ink paintings, of a praying mantis standing atop orange flowers is on the right side.

Found the Green Dye House so now I’m happy. #GhostofYōtei #PS5Share
Atsu in the Dragonfly armor dyed in its green variant while standing in front of the Green Dye House. Green fabric hangs drying in the wind all along the house and on clotheslines.

The writing, and now voice acting, are so good in Tactics. Truly one of the best to ever do it. #TheIvaliceChronicles #PS5Share

@erikaishii.bsky.social it’s only been a couple of hours with Atsu but I’m already loving everything about her. 🫰🏼Can’t wait to spend dozens of hours more time with her.

Keep on keeping on! I’ve completed my 32nd platinum trophy with #DeathStranding2: On the Beach. In a year of many greats, this story really resonated with me and felt very appropriate giving what we all seem to be facing. 10/10 would do it all over again @hideokojima.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp
