  • ooooh, this is a must watch. Indy:atlantis is pretty much my favorite game ever.

    Got the game when I was a kid, it came bundled with a soundcard & cd-rom drive. I had seen Indiana Jones movies but didn’t know they also came in game form! I struggled through the puzzles - english being a second language and I had just started learning it - but I did it, I managed to beat the game… and then started it again because apparently there were branching paths with different puzzles in in! Good times. I’ve played the game so many times, probably interacted with every possible thing in it, love it to death.

    I just wish we’d get a new Indiana Jones point & click -adventure, instead of platformers and fps games. But, p&c is a niche genre, I know. :/



  • Just finished Gunpoint - it’s a fairly nifty puzzler about a somewhat goofy private eye with cybernetic frog pants and ability to rewire building electronics with his mind. The soundtrack is odd mix of noir-jazzy electronica, and it slaps.

    And right after I felt nostalgic, so I started scummvm and booted up Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist. Did not remember laborious the start of the game is with what is essentially copy protection - mixing medicines to order. Beyond the copy protection shenanigans, the game is a Sierra-game through and through: vga visuals are neat, voice acting is goofy but well made, instant deaths… Though the game isn’t as malicious as some early Sierra games.

    I’d be totally down for a toggle. A mod is fine too, if there’s one, gimme!

    I just find romances entirely uninteresting. I just want to be friendly and not upset companions because the whole thing wasn’t mutual. And pissing them off because I “have to” turn them down kills me a bit.

    I guess turning someone down is a bummer for them, but man would I like to sidestep the whole issue without needing to be shitty towards them to keep the romance-meter from filling up by just being friendly.
