When you start playing Crumble, one of the first things the game does is to recommend that you use a gamepad. Despite this, I played through the whole game using keyboard and mouse. After achieving this amazing feat, I’m beginning to regret this decision.
Playing My Steam Library
So many unplayed games in my library… Let’s play them all!
I Finished Overload’s Campaign
After some effort, and lowering of the difficulty, I’ve finally finished Overload’s main campaign. Here are my final thoughts on the overall experience, and musings on whether I’ll continue to play this game in the future.
Another Speedrunning Game
I was getting frustrated with Overload after a huge difficulty spike in the last few levels, so I decided to take a break from it and try out another game. Crumble is a simple game with a simple premise: keep rolling forwards.
Overload: A Frustrating End
I’m getting close to the end of Overload’s campaign and it’s hard. Really hard. I don’t mind this, as games are supposed to get more challenging as you progress. There are, however, a couple of strange design decisions that are making the experience a little frustrating.
Overload’s Titanic Difficulty
I’ve been playing through Overload and having an extremely fun time. It’s not perfect by a long shot. The game can get frustrating to play at times. But when you start getting a grip on the mechanics the game can prove to be very rewarding.
Overload: Sphere-Strafing
This week I started playing Overload, a new space shooter from the creators of Descent. As in the original, this game allows you to move through all three dimensions freely. It’s supported by a simple story and interesting combat.
Exploring Turok 2: Seeds of Evil
Turok was one of those old-skool shooters that I didn’t play much when I was younger. I played a bit of the first game on N64, and I knew it as that “Dinosaur FPS.
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
Hotline Miami 2 is an extremely violent top-down shooter. It’s one hell of a lot of fun to play at first, but there comes a point when you start to feel the flaws and trying to get through each level becomes more about luck than skill.
Mordheim: City of the Damned
When I first played Mordheim: City of the Damned, I fell in love. After my first session, I wanted to keep going back to it. Unfortunately, when I booted the game up for a second time I found that I may not be able to continue playing my campaign.
Letting Go to Save the World
Whispers of a Machine is a point-and-click adventure and a cyberpunk murder mystery. It follows the story of Vera Englund, a Special Agent of the Central Bureau. As an investigator of Violent Crimes, she is sent to the small town of Nordsund to investigate a series of unusual murders.
