Queer indie dev. Kinda feral.

I co-run a video game cooperative called Studio Terranova with @mabbees.

Ahhhh, Koudelka. I did a stream of it tonight and my god am I so glad I did. The graphics are gorgeous for a PS1 game, the voice acting reminds me of Silent Hill, and some of the music from the Shadow Hearts series is clearly inspired by Koudelka.

It took me an hour and a half to find the first save, which reminded me of how much spare time I had as a wee kid. Ah, memories, to be able to play a game without saving for a full hour and a half.

Dude for real. I remember spending days in front of my TV playing PS1 RPGs. I have a hard time revisiting the ones I'm unfamiliar with because I think I like 4 hours just learn the mechanics and have some grasp on the story. πŸ˜…

Same, haha. The second encounter in the game I got a monster that wiped out the party because I'd forgotten old RPG's don't have your party heal after a battle, so I had to start the whole thing over again. πŸ˜
