  • Today I finally got around to playing the demo of Paper Apps GOLF. It's not quite as fun or dynamic as the other games in the Paper Apps series, but playing one roll between each timesheet review I did at my desk broke up the morning.

    I might return to the full version once I get through the more enticing Paper Apps GALAXY.

  • Last weekend at the library Celestine saw a group of kids making a craft involving using thread to make drawings. We didn't have time to stay and join them, but she kept the idea in mind all week. Today she made a cat and a heart on cardboard using that method.

  • There's nothing in the Switch 2 reveal so far that has me keen to get the new system early on. Increasing the size is a disappointment to me; I love the Switch Lite's smaller size but even it is bulkier than I would like.

    Maybe there will be a must-play launch title but so far I'm inclined to wait for a Switch 2 Lite so I have a genuinely portable system. I've been a portable-first gamer for a long time and I want to keep my playing easy to carry.

    With Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition coming in just over 2 months, at least I'll have my favourite game to play on my Lite for the rest of this year and probably into next.

  • @MidniteLibrary something I sometimes see neglected is mentioning that comics often have teams involved in their creation that may not be fully credited. Inkers, colourists, and letterers come to mind as roles that aren't often mentioned as part of the process of making comics.

    Excellent video essay by Aeviann (a treasure of the Xenoblade X community) on why the world building works so well.

    Note: It has a ton of world spoilers, neat things that would be a shame not to discover yourself. But if you know the game, or tried it and failed to engage somehow, this is an excellent watch.

    @NullNoMore this was such a joy to listen to! I didn't think I could be more excited to play again, but this hyped me up.

  • Yesterday I had surprise mail from @MidniteLibrary, much delayed by the Canadian postal strike.

    Matthew included a copy of the third issue of his zine Games on My Shelf (I Have Not Finished Yet) and sealed the envelope with a proper wax seal!

  • I finally bought Orchestre à Vents de Musiques de Films' concert recording for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and it's wonderful. "Where We Used to Be" was moving from its opening notes.

    @NullNoMore The new character and area got me the most excited. I still need to learn if cars will pass through me in NLA or not.
