I've been playing a bunch of Rusted Moss lately. It's a Twin Stick Shooter Metroidvania, which is appreciably different from the Hack and Slash type I normally play. Getting used to mouse-and-keyboarding a platform heavy game took a bit. And boy are there platforms.

While elements of Metroidvanias are there, this game leans way further into the platforming. I would say it's closer to Celeste than Hollow Knight. Imagine Celeste, but instead of a magic dash and climbing gear Madeline had a gun and a chatty grappling hook.

Anyways, I've been enjoying the heck outta this game and wanted to share. While you're here I will accept any and all Metroidvania recommendations. Except for Cookie Cutter probably.

So many books have characters remark "it was well past moonrise", or something else equally ridiculous, to show the passage of time at night. ~~The moon cycle is a month long (~27 days), not some paltry 24 hours.~~ If you know any authors please spread the word. Together we can stamp out this astronomical disillusionment!

[EDIT]

A smarter than me commenter below pointed out that, due to the way days work, it does indeed rise and set once a day. Hard to do a complete rotation and keep a celestial body in the sky. Womp womp, I am silly.

I should have instead argued that moon rise and set are not linked to sun rise and set, and that the moon doesn't exclusively rise and set at night. It is possible to have the moon out during the day time. They are on different schedules is all.

Sgt. Fern Spellman couldn't stay for any more questions as there was a report of a caricature artist welding a pencil two streets over.

Seriously, I don't think that thing was sharp at all.

This looks great. I love the raccoon take on classic RPG classes like Mess Magus (Wizard) and Dumpster Diviner (Cleric). You can get the PDF for as little as $10USD.

My precious kitty loved laying in cat food flats and on pizza boxes.

This unofficial series follows human progression into the solar system. Starting from putting a base on the moon and going all the way to discovering ancient alien ruins outside our solar system.

I think it's pretty neat how optimistic and diverse it is. There's a prominent Native American character. Fantastic!

Caveat, some women get thrown in fridges pretty suddenly and for seemingly no narrative reason. Not all women though, so kind of weird.

You ever just want to eat a stack of meat? Want it covered in cheese and sauce? You're in luck! Check out Versato's. If you've ever had Vern's Pizza then this is similar.

These pizzas are heavy, and they are very tasty. The prices may seem high, but keep in mind that there's a lot of toppings per slice.

Happy National Indigenous Day!

Aysanabee is an Oji-Cree musician from Northern Ontario. I dig the heck outta this song.

Here's a Radio Edit without the spoken words if that's your thing.

I had one of these growing up, they were great! I also got the Pokémon Pikachu 2 GS version when it came out. Personally I preferred the Digimon D-3 Digivice virtual pet, but they were all fun!

This website plays lofi tracks 24/7. There's multiple channels each with a different vibe. I like to have it on when I'm doing super fun paperwork at my job.
