Hello speedfriends, glad we have another excuse to spend a week inside this summer!

This DS3 race is surprisingly chill for, well, a Dark Souls race??

So, speedfriends, bad news. The entire city/county is without power. That's about 150,000 people.

Knytt Stories is coming up in a little over two hours' time.

It's a cute and cozy metroidvania without combat but with super tight jumping mechanics (a lot like Celeste!). It's pretty much my favorite game ever and inspired me to get into game development. The dev, Nifflas, is a really cool and did a live Skype commentary of one of his other games, Within a Deep Forest, at GDQ. He was also speedrunning the game himself right after release.

He's also partially responsible for the super chill soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwXsUbKfCWA.

You'll want put the kettle on for this one. :comfysamus:

Also I couldn’t focus on any runs for a while there, I got an email about some temporary work starting next week and at the end of August so I was filling in forms about employment history and whatnot to apply for that.

I hope I get the work even though it’s only a couple of weeks but it’s work I enjoy and I could really do with the extra money :pray:

Good luck speedfriend, I'm sure you'll land that job :)

I should probably play this and the original Knytt Stories levels again sometime this summer.

That said I fully respect the opinion that Sonic games are overrated

Sonic 3 & Knuckles has a :krad: soundtrack though and there have been some neat tricks in this run where they unload parts of the stages.

SPARKS need to do the soundtrack to a Sonic game.

That.... would be interesting. There'd certainly still be a strong melody but the sardonic undertone would just have the player questioning the necessity of going fast.

There's something about the nice bright graphics and big sprites in Mega Man II on Game Boy that makes it way more appealing to me than most of the NES games.

I Wily's base is all trippy with melting clocks and...

I’ve been needing to get a new chair because mine is nearly collapsed and I have no idea what might be good or comfortable because I’ve had this one for over 10 years now and change terrifies me

Na meant the interview armchairs, I'd rather not try my luck with another gaming chair with sweaty fake leather.
