Animation Lead on Wanderstop! She/Her & Transgenderrific! Past: Radial Games, Gaslamp Games



  • Terra Nil - Okay so I started this during IGF so I've already seen a bunch of it so I'm going kinda slow on my replay. Still love this tho. It's so FUNDAMENTALLY different from the rest of the sim genre. I'm kind of hoping this encourages others to think about what else you can make in the space that isn't just citybuilders - as much as I love citybuilders!
  • Sunless Skies - Finally mustered myself to beat this. What a good game. I'd forgotten how much it improved on Sunless Seas' UI until I saw zandra play the latter a bit. I really, really hope failbetter makes another one of these sometime, because there's so little like them out there. In the meantime, there's always another run, and also...
  • Fallen London - I'm trying it out again. I'm not a F2P person by any means but while in 2014 the game seemed like it constantly wanted me to pay money it seems downright generous compared to the exploitative gachas that define the genre on mobile now. It's fun so far but I feel like I'm awful at it. Maybe that's the intended experience. Anyway time to get exiled to the tomb-colonies again
  • Get In The Car, Loser! - Played through DLC2 recently. Still a great game that I feel was seriously overlooked by basically the entirety of games - only 50 reviews on steam is seriously dire. Trans as fuck, queer as hell. The music's great, the dlc is a really solid extension of the main campaign, the game has a lot to say about modern fascism. Seriously, yall need to play it
  • Hypnospace Outlaw - playing this at my friends' place and it's maybe the best group experience imaginable. What an incredible love letter to the 90s internet, and one that's surprisingly immediately relevant-feeling when you look at the way modern twitter is collapsing. Also tons of incredible music. I will never ever get the granny cream song out of my head.
  • Snowrunnner - My new podcast game. Between this and Death Stranding i've become extremely into the 'genre' of "getting around, but it's hard". Really, really smart design in this one, I'm super impressed at how much flexibility it feels like it has. There's never Not an option, if you're willing to put in the effort.

Small Bits

  • Hitman WOA - Roguelike mode continues to alternately consume and destroy me. One day I'll beat it so I can join the winners' club with @ticky.
  • Atelier Sophie 2 - I've been getting back to it, if only because ryza 3 is out so I'm late af on it. Still on track to be my new top recc on the atelier doc tbh
  • Orb of Creation - Me getting back into idle games is usually a bad sign but this one's pretty solid so far. Very active, not really much in the way of idling. Which is maybe why everyone likes it so much.
  • Grimrock 2 - chugging along on this but starting to remember why I fell off. I love grimrock but it can be a slogggg sometimes. Esp when you're not sure where to go.
  • Urbek City Builder - Strange but entertaining puzzly citybuilder with the unusual distinction of allowing you to build up anarchist communes, among other things. I love a good weird eurosim.
  • Labyrinth of Galleria - backburnered because it's literally a 100+ hour jrpg. Love you galleria but you're SO LONG

Ouch, I didn't know Get in the Car Loser doesn't seem to have done well. 🙁 I'm a fan of Love's previous games but Get in the Car has been sitting in my "to play" list for ages since my life's gotten really busy and I haven't played many games in general for the past couple of years. I really gotta get around to it.
