Y'aaallllll. I managed not to cry, but oof. I went into this game cold--hadn't seen a trailer, hadn't read a synopsis. That turned out to be a mistake, and I quickly began to dread every single segment of this game. Don't get me wrong, I _really l...
I love the aesthetic and interface of _[Subsurface Circular](https://store.steampowered.com/app/676820/Subsurface_Circular/)_. Per the dev's request, this is only sequences 1-3 of the game, as major spoilers and decisions happen after that. Ou...
Shelter 2 is _such_ a beautiful game. This is a playthrough of a single generation, and beware: there are some sad bits and many rabbits are hunted. The game is also insufferably cute, though, with excellent art and audio. NSFW: language (cussi...
I played two games tonight! One is [Space Run](http://www.passtechgames.com/space-run.html), which I had a hard time getting the rhythm of after a few weeks off, and the second was [Astroneer](https://astroneer.space/), which I haven't played sinc...
Pardon my outrageous fatigue in this stream. It hit me even harder than I expected. Transistor is still lovely, however. Maybe? NSFW: language (cussing/curse words) Transistor: https://store.steampowered.com/app/237930/Transistor/ Twitch: h...
Aaahhhh! [Tacoma](https://store.steampowered.com/app/343860/Tacoma/) was such a great game! I played the whole thing in one sitting, if you don't count water and cat breaks. This game is lovely in just about every way. NSFW: language (cussing/c...
I played a couple hours of this game a couplefew years ago, so I just restarted from the beginning for this playthrough. I love how gorgeous this game is and _every single moment_ of its music. It was so hard not to hum along. NSFW: language (c...
The. Final. Stream. Quite short, but it's the final two days of the game, and is a satisfying end. NSFW: language (cussing/curse words) Sunset: https://store.steampowered.com/app/287600/Sunset/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/averymd Mastodon: h...
Our third "Future Proof Plays" is a complete playthrough of Freebird Studio's "A Bird Story." This game was so adorable. **Beware of spoilers!** CW: language (a smidge of cussing/curse words) A Bird Story: https://store.steampowered.com/app/...
The revolution is fully in swing, and I'm steeped in fear, uncertainty, and romance. This is a long session, largely due to the fact that I was certain I was at the end of the game... which I wasn't. And I'm still not, even at the end of this stre...
Sunset now includes _journalling_. It's both beautiful writing and an excuse for some exposition. But--as appropriate for this game--my viewers and I talk politics, including recent events in American politics and significant news in climate chang...
This is our first "Future Proof Plays", which is just a way to have some synchronous access to our players. We decided to start with "[The Beginner's Guide](https://store.steampowered.com/app/303210/The_Beginners_Guide/)", and this is a complete p...
My next co-op game is [Mothergunship](https://store.steampowered.com/app/574090/MOTHERGUNSHIP/). It's a difficult switch after a game like Full Metal Furies--I miss the story, the puzzles, the feel of the shooting. _But_ Mothergunship has its fun ...
We finished! It took a few more tries, but we defeated Prometheus on the last attempt we were willing to make today. This also includes a credits roll, since they added interesting dev notes to it (concept art, mention of design changes and dev di...
Prometheus is a really hard boss! We backed off a bit to get our final items, including finally nailing our player-specific levels. With a complete loadout, we dove back in to fighting Prometheus. Spoiler: we don't win, but we make good headway. ...
Gregory and I are playing [Full Metal Furies](https://store.steampowered.com/app/416600/Full_Metal_Furies/), and we're so, so close to the end. These puzzles are weird and tricky, and this boss is definitely the hardest one in the game so far. ...
More Sunset! I really like this game. I'm trying to balance keeping the romance going with a few revolutionary tactics. Not sure if this is going to work out. NSFW: language (cussing/curse words) Sunset: https://store.steampowered.com/app/28...
My third time playing Sunless Skies includes a beautifully-creepy story of something worse than death out in the far reaches. And my own death and rebirth, of course. NSFW: language (cussing/curse words) Sunless Skies: https://store.steampow...
My second time playing Sunless Skies ends in a death and rebirth. That's okay. I know next time to have some paper nearby so I can keep notes on where things are. NSFW: language (cussing/curse words) Sunless Skies: https://store.steampowered...
Gregory and I are playing [Full Metal Furies](https://store.steampowered.com/app/416600/Full_Metal_Furies/) most Saturday mornings these days, and this weekend we were awake enough to stream! It was a fun session, although it ended with a tough co...
This is a continuation of my [Particulars run](https://hoot.video/videos/watch/342a33a3-7163-46fb-923a-b6841219b1bc) that started during #loveindies week. This is a slow-paced game, story-wise, and I don't think anything uplifting at all is going ...
I love, love, love [Cultist Simulator](https://store.steampowered.com/app/718670/Cultist_Simulator/) by Weather Factory. I'm not great at it yet, but you can see a complete playthrough of the game here. I'm going to be streaming this a lot, but it...
This is a solid Cultist Simulator run! I don't win, but that's okay. Dread takes Becky down before they can advance terribly far, although that's largely because are some systems in the game I still don't understand well. NSFW: language (cussin...
It's #loveindies week, and I wanted to try [Sunless Skies](https://store.steampowered.com/app/596970/SUNLESS_SKIES/) by Failbetter Games. It's as delightful as Sunless Sea, and even prettier. I'll definitely be streaming more of this. NSFW: lan...
