new sylvie game dropped Pog

Happy 17th...!!

Happy July 17th, friends!

wait yo this is kinda hype (i havent checked this place in 5ever) - have been playing some bingo related game slately tho

I finally played through Hollow Knight some months back and really enjoyed it.  Just a marvellous game.  I do enjoy metroidvanias but they can also be a bit of an investment sometimes, so I'm always a bit hesitant to start a new one.

I'm not sure if Maddy's older games are harder than Souls titles or not.  They're very precise and that would be difficult for a lot of people.  On the other hand, Souls games (at least the more recent ones) are more reaction-based, and that presents its own difficulties.  I think either could be difficult for people with low motor control, but both skills can also be improved through practice.

I've played so much of both that I really don't have that beginner's context necessary to evaluate it fairly anymore.

I played through Celeste 64 after finishing the C-Sides in the regular game.  I really liked the Mario Sunshine-esque stages.  Overall though I was content to put it down after the hour or two I spent with it.

I saw one of your SM64 runs on my Youtoobs.  I recognized some of the tricks, like the backwards bomb carrying.  It seems like a tricky but very fun game to learn speed tech on.
