I was going to eventually pick up Unbeatable, but I would be so infuriated to not get to beat my head against a difficult battle that I am glad to have read your review here. On the other hand, I now get to add Mixtape to the Skeppomended list with Wandersong and Wirewalk!

God, I hate it when games force you to skip over content involuntarily! One of my biggest pet peeves. It sucks ass that UNBEATABLE sounds so... boring. Sounds like a bunch of small issues piling up and up until the experience ends up feeling crappy. It looked really promising to me.

When it's good, it's really good! It's just, you know, not as often as you'd like.

Sure grandad, I believe you, now lets put this plastic guitar back in the attic next to the Donkey Conga drums and I'll make you a cocoa.

i always find it interesting to find differing opinions on games that i personally love. UNBEATABLE released an update that fixed that strange "no retry" thing, so you can simply choose to retry instead of it forcing you out of the fight. personally, i found the exploration rather interesting, the dialogue was fun and when the game hits, it REALLY hits in my opinion. i am wondering what chapter you got to? the first-

vistas-save-room's avatar vistas-save-room 1 month ago

and second chapters are pretty mediocre in terms of gameplay, but the midpoint of chapter 3 is where the game heavily picks up in my opinion. chapter 4 is FULL of rhythm game segments and it does make me wonder why they couldnt have done that for the earlier chapters too. could be the lack of money and time, i have no clue how this game was really developed

I made it to the coastal town, just past the lighthouse event (which I think I failed too, but at the time it seemed like a forced-lose section). I doubt that being able to retry a section would make it more *fun*, just less frustrating. Maybe the back half is a better game, but I feel so deflated at this point that pressing on would take more effort than I'm willing to give.

Thanks for being my first follower! You're a legend. I might need to make a Negroni to celebrate!

Earlier this year I spent literal *days* trying to find a web-based writing app I liked, but I was disappointed by every one I looked into. How the heck in all that time did I not see a single recommendation for Ellipsus? I have to play with it some more, but so far it's checking ALL my boxes. Many, MANY thanks.

Aaaaaaaaa I'm glad to hear that my ramblings helped someone find something! You're welcome. I think they mainly advertised on Tumblr? That's where I first saw them but I don't know if they are advertising themselves elsewhere but it's mostly word of mouth afaik.

Makes sense, it does seem like a newer app. I'm already thinking about upgrading to Plus—those writing insights are pretty nice!

Holy whatThe Sneeze was the place where None Pizza with Left Beef came from?? There was clearly too much internet back in 2007 because I never found this one at the time. Wasting my time with crap like Go Fug Yourself instead.

I just had to click on the video because I found it hard to believe that a 5 hour deep dive on Mountain Dew exists. And was then even more surprised that he just gets right into it. Not explaining the need for a 5 hour Mountain Dew deep dive, or why you should care about it. He just assumes those two things are covered and plows right ahead.

I would say, "What loser watches 5 hours about Mountain Dew??" But several months ago I bought a mechanical keyboard and watched many hours of videos about mechanical keyboards. I don't know why I did it, especially since I have no interest in modding a keyboard or anything. The fever dream passed and I somehow remain very ignorant about mechanical keyboards and have lost a few days of my life.

I saw Mountain Dew donuts at a gas station last weekend. I’ve never been a Dew fan, but I was tempted before I thought of all the sugar. I guess the novelty flavor marketing works on people who are intrigued by a gross idea (me).

I am the loser who watches 5 hours about Mountain Dew, but I'm also running out of extremely long videos about topics I actually care about. I wrinkle my nose at any video that isn't at least an hour and a half. Youtube won't take the hint and stop showing me shorts though.

The one thought running through my head while reading this was "wow, there's another world out there, and in it, no one has worked to make a viable vegan baja blast gelatin treat."

That video is either from somebody I've seen before or somebody basically identical to somebody I've seen before. That said, I'm sure somebody's said that about me before, too.

By the way, I really enjoy how your navigation images jitter around eagerly when you hover over them. That is such a fun effect.

What's the point of a redesign if not to give you ideas for a new redesign when you're half-way through?

Welcome to the club... my site has never had one design, always slowly morphing into its next form. it's a curse (or blessing), makes it feel alive
