atomcraft


This might just be the greatest thing ever in the history of the last five minutes. The Flash in Lego I tell you. The. Flash. In. Lego. In case it wasn't evident I love Lego I do. Toys and worlds you can build, its like Minecraft before there was a Minecraft. Or maybe Minecraft is just catching up.

Lego Batman just about blew my tiny little mind when that launched but this takes aim at what little remains and blasts that away too. Guess I'm down to thinking with but the merest bits of what's left. Wiring up all the remaining atoms together until they form a circuit and achieve the illusion of a working brain. Probably explains why I'm not so hot on the old thinking tonight.

It's all drinking tea and watching television. That's where it's at. Yeah you can keep your drugs and your alcohol. It's me and tea all the way, and Lego. Aside from that its a whole lot of nothing happening in the world of Dave. Work has left me depleted again so I'm on course for an imminent date with my bed. Night peeps.

anime hair and the end of days

I've just completed a game that, in normal circumstances at least, wouldn't generally be my cup of tea. A game remastered and released in 2021 but which originally arrived in 2010 in a somewhat 'adjusted' manner shall we say?. A game I meant to get around to back then but never did and now that I have finally gotten around to both playing and completing it, I'm not entirely sure if I liked it or not. That game is Nier Replicant or to give it it's full re-released title:  Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139... because clearly the game alone wasn't baffling enough....

horror movie mania 2023

Once more we return to my favourite time of year. The air cools to a brisk chill, the leaves go red and brown in that deeply pleasing way and the evenings grow steadily darker. This year it's slightly different for me as major non-threatening life events unfolded earlier this month but amidst a flurry of recent activity I have found time to sneak in that most precious of all October past-times, the Halloween-adjacent horror movie marathon.  This year I've managed to watch more than a film or two so thought I'd give my thoughts in brief on each one. These are mostly films that have been on my to-watch list for an age with an exception or two and there may be more than one movie called Halloween as it happens, maybe even more than two. To the hot takes...

gaming archaeology

There is an art to playing old games, a   mindset even. A requisite state of mind thats required in order to play through its history. It's often said that you can't judge the past by the standards of the present and this is true to a point. Beyond that point the present can very much creep into your judgements and I think this is fine too as long as you are honest about it. The present moment can indeed cast a harsh light on the past, revered classics may not hold up even if you can still see what made them tick way back when. Such thoughts have come to mind recently as I found myself playing through the original 1987 release of Maniac Mansion .
