never seen somebody build this kind of chain before in my life

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir (flushed)

This might be outing myself as a scrub but the menuing to use items and plant consumables drove me up the wall. Apparently it made more sense in the original game whereas the faster pace of the remaster makes it less suitable? Oh well

SANABI (cyberpunk grappling hook platformer, ++-)

The last third of the game has you play through the past areas again, but with your full set of abilities, and it's really fun to flow state everywhere chaining grapples and enemy kills.

Game is kinda simple without all the unlocks though :(

didnt realize this debug menu existed. if i had known i woulda used it on the fightcade pp2 save state so you could pick tsuu rules on every stage background

i guess technically i can still do that, i don't really feel like redoing the effort to re-inject the custom RNG again though

Gunfire Reborn (furry roguelite fps, +-/)

Has the same issue as every other roguelite where the metaprogression treadmill is the only thing keeping any given run from feeling like a waste of time.

The core gameplay itself is... fine? but only after getting to the later branches of the skill tree.

had a great time at the TGM meetup at @eastcoastcandycrew.bsky.social this weekend. the venue was sick, staff was all super welcoming, plus i got to play a few games of jong on the autotable.

will try to make my way down there again in the future!

Valdis Story: Abyssal City (action rpg metroidvania, ++-)

I actually started this back in 2014 but dropped it <1hr in cause I got the bright idea to play it on stick (bad idea)

Felt like picking it up again on controller... and discovered that for some reason dashing uses a hadouken command input

really funny how they incorporated the gummy worm sponsorship into this deadlock tourney

draft TGM4 ruleset for frostys. kinda want to bump quota up to 300 points but I'm worried about timeliness, esp with controller setup being an unknown factor

the discourse has been the same as always it's just really funny that the asuka gm person was posting through it a few days ago

Tetris the Grand Master 4: Absolute Eye (tetris that makes good at tetris..? ++//)

With the addition of the x.1 modes, this is now the best TGM game to recommend by sheer virtue of accessibility and presentation.

But in terms of coherent vision and skill measuring MAN is this game a complete mess.

Shape of Dreams, demo (MOBA roguelike +/)

I don't really do roguelikes, but I still have a large PSO-shaped hole in my heart...

This isn't it though. Nice aesthetic and technically competent, but I can't imagine myself running this over and over. Maybe it'd be more fun with coop, but for how long?
September 21, 2025 at 11:28 PM
this technically puts me at the same PBs ive hit in unofficial games

any idea how 2.1 is supposed to compare with ta death? still can't hit 500 in actual tap yet but I think I might be able to pass torikan here with some practice
