Started playing Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, and it's probably the first game I've tried that could be considered a Souls-like, or at least a Souls-hybrid

So far it's been mechanically interesting, especially the idea of being able to try out many classes, and even switch between two classes in combat

Had my eye on The Caligula Effect 2 for a while now, after having experienced The Caligula Effect: Overdose, and I finally started getting into the sequel

Similar setting where protagonist + crew realize they're trapped in a virtual world and fight to break free, but there are subtle differences (e.g. first game centering around trauma, second game centering around regret)

What I stream

For now I'm just streaming my gameplay, but I would occasionally stream me doing live coding or even maybe doing art streams!

Started playing Undermine from a friend's recommendation. Turns out this game is really fun. Once you have enough stuff collected, a single run can take quite some time.

Started playing NEO: The World Ends With You, a sequel game coming in nearly a decade and a half after the first game. I remember spending hours on the original on the Nintendo DS, and it's pretty wild to see the super niche IP see a follow-up.

First impressions are quite positive: seems to have captured the spirit of the first game, which is impressive considering the move from 2D to 3D + the updated combat mechanics. Game oozes style in its aesthetic. Also has nice callbacks to fans of the first TWEWY game.

Finally started playing The Last of Us Remastered! 🎮 Some heavy themes right from the start but really enjoying it so far.
