What am I doing wrong?05 Dec 2025 11:40 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3m7afpdssys2hhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3m6wdk2xxps24November was my month of Hades 2. I still haven't got the epilogue, but I did get the true ending, so I'm counting it as done, even though I'm going to continue playing it. In December I'm hoping to finally get to Expedition 33.01 Dec 2025 11:35 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6wdk2xxps24https://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3m4njpkcrk22hOk so October was a very busy month. I was very productive. Shipped a few new features for Wheel of Names and made huge backend changes. That does mean that I didn't finish many games, though. Only one, in fact. BALL x PIT was a great little Breakout-meets-Vampire Survivors game.02 Nov 2025 12:41 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4njpkcrk22hhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3m26avywhb22lIn September I played a *lot* of Silksong. But that's not all! I also played Planet of Lana and Granblue Fantasy: Relink. Going to finish up my sub 30h 100% steel soul run, then move on to Hades 2!02 Oct 2025 00:03 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3m26avywhb22lhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lypopeitlk2eHaving completed the true ending of Silksong, I've gotta say that it's an absolute masterpiece. Team Cherry cooked, once again. The wait was so worth it.13 Sep 2025 11:35 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lypopeitlk2ehttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lxrlggpfs22jAugust was fun. Only played A Way Out, In Stars and Time, and The Pathless. However, I did go to Gamescom with 4 of my friends! I went as Kelsier from Mistborn (we'll get a Mistborn game someday), and managed to play 4/8 games that were already on my wishlist before the event.01 Sep 2025 12:16 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxrlggpfs22jhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lvdhtzgpvk25OK so *technically* I didn't finish any games in July, but I'm so far through Octopath Traveler 2 that I'm gonna count it anyway. This is all my friends' fault for making me prepare for and then play the Destiny contest raid. Now I've re-uninstalled it and I am free once more.01 Aug 2025 10:45 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lvdhtzgpvk25https://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lvbmw647tk2gI've spent all month trying to work my way through Octopath Traveler 2. Now that I'm near the end, they go and announce Octopath Traveler 0. Can we chill for a bit? I need to catch up on all the other great games from the past couple years.31 Jul 2025 17:10 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lvbmw647tk2ghttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3ltuxvftksk2lFriends have convinced me to do one last Destiny day-one raid with them. They sherpa'd me through the most recent dungeon today and I got the exotic twice. Bungie really does reserve the best luck for returning players.13 Jul 2025 22:57 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3ltuxvftksk2lhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lsyw3txi3s2kJune was great. I didn't play many games, but among them were some bangers. - Nine Sols - Peace, Death! - OneShot (and World Machine Edition) - Tower Wizard I also completed my first Hollow Knight randomizer run, which was fun.02 Jul 2025 19:10 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lsyw3txi3s2khttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lrm4gfkzlk2cWhy are there so many great-looking games releasing in September?

The Room Three The Room 4: Old Sins Bastion Cyberpunk 2077 It Takes Two Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart The next few months will probably be for high priority games that I want to play before Silksong.31 May 2025 22:45 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqit6eojac2hhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lo32a5mnrc2tApril has mostly been a puzzle game month. Boxes, the Room 1 & 2, and most of all, Blue Prince. Also played Haste and Split Fiction to spice it up a bit. This has also been the month that I moved over to Linux for 90% of my daily computer use, including gaming.01 May 2025 00:23 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lo32a5mnrc2thttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3lls3xlvjyc2bHASTE: Broken Worlds is fantastic02 Apr 2025 00:10 +0000at://did:plc:b75q3rkg4roduzzojn5xz2tj/app.bsky.feed.post/3lls3xlvjyc2bhttps://blacksky.community/profile/gomander.dev/post/3llrzyu4bgc24Only finished Assassin's Creed Shadows in March, but I put over 20 hours into Two Point Museum, so I'm counting it as two games.
