Hey shmup friends! Happy weekend! Welcome to the Open Thread! Feel free to discuss any topic you’d like!
I’m trying a little experiment in scheduling posts. (You might have noticed this is being posted via my Piefed alt.) We’ll see how it goes!
Mostly too busy for games. Warrior Blade was on sale so I got that. It is part of the Rastan saga and filled with lots of fun ideas for a mythical Conan-ish beat-'em-up like a rather impressive horse riding stage, a dragon riding stage, a surfing like that one level in Turtles in Time, optional routes, and really nice sprites and animation presented in widescreen à la Darius II.
I got roped into a situation at work not unlike the one mentioned in the most recent Honkology video where I was tasked with making spreadsheets for every teacher I work with for each class they teach. And renaming them. And getting them on (effing) Teams. And then concatenating a bunch of audio files. Then fixing PDF files. This, I suppose, is what being the resident Millennial means? I will bill them for the extra time, but my managers are the ones getting the thanks.
Looks like the scheduling worked! (Wish I could have done this from my regular Lemmy account, but alas.)
Been keeping busy with work this week, but I did get a chance to play a little Batsugun Special. I’m not sure I’ll ever get a 1cc on it, but as long as I’m having fun I’ll keep at it!
