I streamed these games, so go buy them.
(If you liked them.)
We may remember Chants of Sennaar, but maybe something a little further back tickled your brain that you forgot about? The Steam Spring Sale is live, and while not every game is a recommendation, this list is a bizarre sampler that dodges my sci-fi shooter phase to take you on a trip through time. (Most of these games were released after 2014.) You know Commander Shepard already.
We translated, we transformed - both full of color. You know them.
Chants of Sennaar (25% off; $14.99) / Gris (75% off; $3.75)
The future of American McGee's Alice franchise has been a recurring channel topic, and I'll always love my little region-themed planets. Hey David Hayter, how's that TV adaptation going?
On the flip-side of video games and adaptation: another subject of discussion, Eidos-Montréal, saw itself sold to the Embracer Group after the release of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, and has more recently seen layoffs alongside news of a now-canceled secret Deus Ex game. Hit new Spider-man game? We have a Mahvel game at home!
Alice: Madness Returns (85% off; $2.99) / Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy (75% off; $14.99)
We ask: how does The Beginner's Guide emotionally impact people who experience it today? Come be our guinea pig and experience the game unspoiled if you never caught it yourself. You may recognize "The Stanley Parable", the game previously made by the developer of this 2015 title.
Action-adventure cleaning? We had to take a tour of this planet and solve some puzzles.
The Beginner's Guide (50% off; $4.99)/The Gunk (65% off; $8.74)
The took a boat ride a new years back... While Sea of Solitude does not have you captaining a pirate's ship, we navigated our fears and past, largely through climbing with our feathery body and trying not to succumb to the large beasts embodying our family and fears.
Call of the Sea had us solving puzzles by lush jungle as we followed the footsteps of our husband to discover that we might have more of a connection to the island than we thought...
Sea of Solitude (75% off; $4.99)/Call of the Sea (60% off; $7.99)

“autism wouldn’t have been difficult before capitalism” “nothing that caused me burnout existed before industrialization” well what if your boots feel weird against your skin. and your cape is itchy and too heavy. and your brooch keeps making an annoying sound everytime you move and this party is too loud and you’re hungry and there’s pigeon stew but you can’t stand the texture of pigeon so you ate some olives and now your hands feel oily and gross and you drank a little bit too much wine (bc there’s no clear water. also it was too bitter) so now your head hurts and you feel a little hot but not hot enough to take your cape off and you promised this time we leave when I asked, Aurelius! you promised! and don’t forget we still have a three hour ride back home you promised it’s not going to be like last time! or something of the sort.

monkey man promo interviews r just like oh yeah dev patel broke multiple bones during the action scenes and he simply shoved a screw into his hand and moved on and the sets kept burning down and the cameras were malfunctioning and we spent half a year editing a segment in a scene and we were trapped in an island for months and the crew was marrying n divorcing each other in total soap opera fashion but whatever we made it because if there's a will there's a way <3

I love Ramón and Tubbo's relationship so i made up this self indulgent AU where Tubbo gets de-aged through some means or another and it turns out he was a little eggy as a child. To be clear I don't think Tubbo is or should be (regarded as) an egg (child) in canon, I just thought it would be fun to draw :]
Anyway, here's them slapping each other

"and Fit thinks cats are also spies! this is normal Dapper! i've got more of a mind (more inclined) to believe Fit, cause when he tells you shit like that, you are like 'okay! Fit, i believe you, you've been through the worst shit imaginable'" - qPhil to Dapper
this made me a little bit insane actually. the trust these two have in each other. qVeterans my beloved
both qFit and qPhil believing each other with almost no second thought
and qPhil acknowledging the horrors qFit has been through makes me crazy???
qFit himself doesn't acknowledge the seriousness of his trauma, most of the time using it as a joke and laughing about it same
and i talked about it before, but qFit, when confronted with someone distressed, never does not believe them
like with qMike and the naked slenderman
when qMike accused qFit of not believing him, qFit hurriedly corrected qMike, saying something along the lines of "no, no i believe you, i believe you saw something"
and with qPhil himself, qFit instantly believed that qPhil saw something, that something was wrong
like the friendship between qVeterans means so much to me i miss them when will they come home
and seek duo too,, i miss them so much o(-(
