I’ll cast another vote for the Yocan Uni Pro.
I’ll cast another vote for the Yocan Uni Pro.
I played this a while back and really enjoyed it. The story is heart warming, but the art style is the real star of the show. The watercolor styled environment is beautiful to explore. Would recommend!
I initially thought Sam was a fool for taking the hint on the puzzle box, but after I saw the solution…I don’t think I would have figured that out either.
Go Team Ben!
Thanks for sharing!
That’s a beautiful unit! I have Toad #017 and I love it, one of my most used portables.
Petition to bring back full qwerty portrait oriented keyboard sliders like this. I miss this hardware style.
Wow, brave! The display on my batch 2 Playdate has started to develop an issue where certain pixels are displaying in a black line. It still plays for now, but I’m saving up my dollars to get it repaired/replaced since it’s unfortunately outside the warranty period now.
HLT is still one of my most used. So simple but so good.
I didn’t realize Vapor Brothers was still around, these are old school.
While I don’t think I would actively recommend people over to something like VB today, it is cool that an original innovator in the vape space is still operating today.
I’ve been following this and am intrigued, but the combo of the high price, crowdfunding, and lack of even a functioning prototype to show off has me skeptical enough to not throw down money in advance for one.
If it actually comes out and they don’t go bankrupt during the design/manufacturing process, and if the phone is actually good, then I’d definitely consider buying one. I like the concept a lot.
Was the first vape I had ever heard of/tried. Followed closely by the original Pax.
How far we’ve come.
My favorite desktop is definitely the Herborizer. I love the design of it, and love the hits that it produces. I have other vapes that are technically “more powerful”, but for some reason the Herborizer just does it for me.
Portable wise, my favorite would be a close tie between the Tetra P80 and Morwood Toad. The P80 is the stronger performer between the two, but something about the Toad is so pleasant and enjoyable to use.
I’ve got the same green Grav mug, one of my favorites!
Payments ranged from $50-$1,000/mo.
I picked up a lot of games on the sale, so here are some thoughts on a few:
Mars After Midnight: I’m still early on in this, but this is already one of my favorite games I’ve played on Playdate. The art is fun, music is catchy, and the gameplay is fun. At $6 this is a must-buy for any Playdate owner IMO, up there with Bloom.
Bloom: By far my favorite game on Playdate. This is a fantastic game from both a story and gameplay perspective. I’ve played it start to finish twice, and likely will play a third time as well.
Taxi Trouble: This is a fun high score style game. If you ever played Crazy Taxi or Road Rage, this is essentially a top-down take on that concept.
Steam’d Roller: I thought I’d really enjoy this from the catalog page, but it’s only okay. The gameplay is very basic, and there isn’t much challenge here for a high score based game. The first time I played I got a score of over 300 before I just gave up and let the timer run out, out of boredom.
Greed: This is a basic dice game, but endlessly replayable. I like that this lets you play against both a computer, or to pass the Playdate back and forth with a partner.
I bought a few others that I haven’t gotten to spend much time with yet, but I’ll post those thoughts here later!
Mutazione & Saltsea Chronicles are two favorites of mine, from the same developer, which don’t seem to get much attention.
They’re both narrative focused games, with a lot of world building and character development.
I enjoyed both of them greatly, and if you like chill story based games, I think you’d enjoy them!
Maybe I haven’t spent enough time searching out accounts to follow, but I’ve found Pixelfed to be a bit lacking compared to Lemmy.
Lemmy successfully replaced Reddit for me. But Pixelfed is just too barren for me to be able to ditch Instagram.
Any update here? Would love to play your game if it’s ready!
What I find interesting about Life is Strange is that everyone has a bit of a different experience with the games depending on if the characters resonate with them, what they’re personally going through in their life at that time, etc.
I do agree with you that it felt like LiS2 was attempting to be topical, which is where I felt like it fell flat for me.
Whereas the stories in the other games felt a bit more timeless and relatable for most players.
The new colors look amazing! I’m certainly tempted, but I already have a black version so I will probably hold off.
