My only complaint of the game I have is pacing. I found the routes between fights to be boring, and the weird 2D sections never really provided much else.

Unless I’m not seeing something, game production is expensive. Most studios are 1-2 bad games away from closing their doors. Games are expensive as hell to produce and as much as it sucks the “going public” option is sometimes the only way to go.

It’s easy to forget but most small (1-3 people) team indie devs probably aren’t even working a salary. They split the earnings from the game and either live off of that or reinvest it into their company but the moment salaries need to get paid, or office space needs to be used (not really necessary for small teams) that’s when expenses get insanely high. I’m not a business person but I can understand why you’d want to “trim the fat” (I don’t support it at all but to play devil’s advocate, I can see the logic despite the flaws). Growth means structure, and structure means expense.

To be fair the price includes 10 or so original indie titles which if you go by the store front’s average game pricetag ($5.36) that accounts for $53.6 worth. (And that’s really not fair to some of the games I’ve played)

Correction: The first season of games that come with the device total out at 24 so going off of that original 5.36 average you’d actually have about $129 give or take worth of game value, leaving the actual Playdate device at a $71 purchase for the device itself.

I’ve seen Obsidian and have been meaning to give it a shot!

IDK how spreadsheets work :( (thought I do plan to use this list to learn)

I appreciate that, I enjoy playing through an entire franchise or at least giving each game a chance even if they’re forgotten/subpar

I’m using LibreOffice but word would work just as well. I thought about Excel/the LibreOffice equivalent but I’m just not familiar with it enough to be useful with it.

And this is generally every game/franchise I own/want to own so it goes as far back as I can make it go back. I also plan to add a LOT of games via emulation that I used to play when I was younger.

Haha thanks I hadn’t gotten to that series at all yet. I’ll add it though thanks again!

And grass is green

80’s was peak change my mind

Oh it is lol, political cartoons?? There are entire chapters dedicated to those. Political memes are 100% going to be studied in the same vein

Okay, let’s see “God” come on down and do that. Until then I’m gonna continue being “depraved” fucking nut jobs.

One person benches

Chair. That’s a chair

What happens is some kid gets a gossip app which takes their contact data and then uses it to send this shit.

I used to get it pretty often too when I was in school.

Couldn’t you just say “Vampires hate them!” If you don’t know? Seems easier imo

Not nearly as much as my face that’s for sure

I do this, here’s why. Also I’m 23

I don’t like getting oils and sweat on my screen. I also don’t like putting my dirty screen on my face.

I can still talk to someone and do other stuff on my phone. If I want privacy or I’m in an area where speakerphone would be annoying then fine I’ll use it the old way, but generally I have headphones to bridge that gap anyways.

Transfem atheist in the south so yes yes and yes

That’s all well and good, but my community would probably kill me eventually so…I’ll stick to not talking to them.
