This game has been on my list for a few years now. (I met the devs at a conference, I believe.) It's a visual novel, so beware that it's essentially 2 hours of me reading to you. It's a great game so far, if very cryptic.

I played [RimWorld](https://rimworldgame.com/), and had some great interactions with folks in chat. We discussed some of the weird gender politics in the game, which Rock, Paper, Shotgun has [written about at least once](https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/11/02/rimworld-code-analysis/).

I've been wanting to replay or finish it since the Enhanced Edition came out, so... why not stream it in a series? It's a fair amount of reading, and there's a lot more body horror than I remember, although if I had really thought about it, it would make total sense given the physical aspects of the Restless/Nameless One.

The first ep of the game is free on Steam, so it's worth trying out. You can definitely make different choices than I did. I didn't find that this game really _moved_ me in the way it seemed to be trying to. Unfortunate, but it was still a good game.

I didn't finish the whole game, and I found some of it disturbing -- glorifying a cop and a bad dad, to be specific. Plus, the game isn't as queer as I'd hoped it would be. But we (chat and I ) criticize it where it happens, so it's at least useful to engage with that.

I've seen snippets galore and read so many articles critiquing and referencing it that I feel like I know it well enough for purposes of conversation, but I've never actually played it myself. I put out a poll and asked folks offline for recommendations, and Bioshock came out strong. So here we are. As a heads up, the mouse acceleration is real bad in the original _Bioshock_, so this is tough to watch if you like FPSes (and annoying to play!). The next time I stream this, it will be using _Bioshock Remastered_ (which fixes the mouse issues) with my audio settings improved.

A so-called "dog opera" in which you play a German Shepherd trying to get workers to start a union. Deliberately difficult gameplay on a basic level (camera positioning, navigation control, and font choices) are combined with dramatic and referential bursts of interactions to make a game that explored cool ideas but was something of a nightmare to play, especially on stream.

You're in a car on the edge of a cliff, having a conversation with a deer/stag about, ultimately, the meaning of (your) life. It's really good and slow-paced and pretty.

I <3 them, and "Last Word" explores a pretty cool mechanic: verbal sparring using a balance of disruption, aggression, and submission to aggravate your opponent and get in the last word. It's an undeniably interesting take on a combat system. I discuss it during the stream, but a game that makes communication solely about getting things from people and being in conflict with them is a pretty tough sell for me, even if I think the way they're going about it is novel.

This is a gentle tale of moving forward with grief, and although I ended my session when I started to flub more jumps than I was succeeding at, this is a very gentle platformer. (I say this as someone who does not enjoy platformers enough to get good at them.) There were definitely sad moments, but this was nowhere near _What Remains of Edith Finch_ territory. Everything about this is lovely: the (implied) story, the art, the animation, the music, everything. I definitely want to finish this.

There are definitely some parallels with _Return of the Obra Dinn_, but without all the messy murder and death. It is, frankly, a fairly standard game of this sort, but I do think it has charm. I say at the end of the video that I'm going to stream the conclusion of it, but it turns out that I had the bulk of details that Chapter 1 is going to provide, so I just set the game aside. looK INside: https://en.unexpected-studio.com/lookinside Twitch: https://twitch.tv/averymd Mastodon: https://irrsinn.life/@melissa Music album "Petal" by Broke For Free Available at https://brokeforfree.bandcamp.com/album/petal Used with permission Music album "Monsters" by The Midnight Available at https://themidnight.bandcamp.com/album/monsters Used with permission: https://themidnight.bandcamp.com/community?sid=295813&st=smhttps://vids.irrsinn.video/streaming-playlists/hls/0e0e2b7c-189c-4019-8464-89e9d546a677/master.m3u8https://irrsinn.video/videos/embed/2JEBfqtos5gFMNzgxkXoiv12632062021-01-22T16:00:13.563ZlooK INsidestreamingvideo gamesindie gamespoint-and-click adventureYESMelissa's Game Streams & ClipsNOhttps://irrsinn.video/w/8C6jkecC84L5MmyTWoNLK6https://irrsinn.video/lazy-static/thumbnails/1fa33c60-23db-4de9-94ab-e1a38c55c1c1.jpgFinal Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor Stream - 2021/01/20This is, as the title suggests, my final _Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor_ stream.

For real. I'm doing a replay of it on PC (my first play was on Switch), and got a wild hair to stream my current place in the game.

One of them is "Breezer". I'd been practicing Expert at slower speeds, and then got a B at full speed before deciding to record. I honestly can't believe I can fuck up so much and still get an "A". 🤣 I'm told by someone who is quite good that once I work on my slashing technique, I'll get an "S" on that, no prob. We'll see.

Archaeology and linguistics behind some simplifying mechanics (she so quickly guesses when and where things are from! and why does this language not change for 1000s of years!) makes for a fantastic time. Even later, I'm not a huge fan of the river navigation controls, but the rest of the game makes up for it.

I'm not good at extended one-handed work in Beat Saber on account of my shoulders (especially on my left side), and this song throws some runs in after that lovely intro.

Next time I stream an expedition, I'll start it from scratch; it was difficult to keep track of what I'd done, and my freighter organization was _abysmal_ because I used the expedition as my way to get back into _NMS_ for the first time in two years. 😓 _NMS_ only gets better every time I play, and I love it dearly.

Generating cohesive narrative for random characters in a tactical RPG across multiple generations is no small task, and the system they're using under the hood is clever.

This game was phenomenal. It has such a care for death and the people involved, and such a distaste for capitalism. On top of being educational, it's visually beautiful and narratively hopeful.

Alcohol abuse, sexual assault, prostitution, violence and offensive language. This was a weird one. First: it has the best knees in video games, hands down. Second: it gets shocking towards the end of the stream when it switches formats of storytelling and gets kinda graphic in its descriptions of harm and death. The game is (according to the devs) about storytelling, and I begin to see some of what they're trying to do in that back half, but I wish the beginning had been a bit tighter in getting to the thesis.

I strained my left pectoral muscle playing _Beat Saber_ back in March, and while I'm not entirely pain-free, it's time to get some movement going. I'm playing super conservatively here when I need to swing my left arm cross-body, but overall, it felt good and I adore this song. Song: Dark Cat - Bubble Tea (Lyrics Video) ft.
