Some other #TGS25 notes:

Played Tanuki and it was more THPSy than expected 🛹

PVKK brought their custom controller and it looks _wild_ 🤖

Hyperfunk had a demo, which I wasn’t expecting 🛼

Checked out the Genki Covert Dock 3 and it works as advertised with Switch 2, so I ordered one 🍄

Returning from #TGS25 ✈️

Capcom is killing it lately, enjoyed all of the titles at their booth (RE9, Pragmata and Onimusha)

Critical Reflex had an IRL setup for Buckshot Roulette - the queue was too long for me but it looked very cool

If you’re at the Tokyo Game Show, drop by the Polish booth at Hall 10 to chat and check out @afterburn.games titles :)

It’s been seven years, forgot how insane TGS queues are 💀

Opened our first Sanctum Door in Blue Prince yesterday…

the Blue Prince Discourse is a Thing, so we started a new save to verify our feelings and:

you can get pretty damn far even on your first runs as long as you *understand* how the game really works

(spoilers in pictures obviously; unless you already reached the Antechamber)

Blue Prince reviews are up and yep - this game is a keeper.

We’ve played an earlier build back in October and been thinking about this game for the last six months.

Can’t wait to be back in Mt Holly and check out if [redacted] leads to [redacted] and whether we finally find [redacted].

Also gotta love it when a game has me taking notes and they end up looking like this:

Went to a steak cooking workshop during the weekend and it was great! A very laid-back experience and the food was lovely (even better since we cooked it ourselves) 🐮

Finally tried making pulled pork; it went great but you need to start making lunch right after breakfast to make it in time 😅

Second pic: bourbon flambé for extra flavor 🔥

Day 3: still alive, and the eye was found (it was covered up by snow and looked like it fell out)
