unlabelledView post →Gigasword (PS5, 24 hours): It's janky, it's buggy, it's a little too unforgiving, but this game has a singular quality. The top of the tower called to me. The plodding progression, the searching and puzzling, the heavy swing of the sword: I had to see it to the end. Particularly enjoyed the bosses.
unlabelledView post →since the next couple of new indie games aren't past embargo yet, tomorrow's stream will be a combination of demo playing and showing a bit of my work process (recording game footage and recording script). as far as demos, looking at Play Rough, Under the Island, Operation Zero, Glaciered, Gigasword

unlabelledView post →Metroid Prime 4 is the worst Metroid/vania game I’ve ever played. Control schooled it, and now Gigasword is, too.
unlabelledView post →Ultimately the reason I came back to GigaSword was the same reason I had trouble pulling away: it's a good game. I just didn't know what I was in getting into when I first started it. Gotta be in the right mood.

unlabelledView post →Video games, board games, card games, reading, writing, exercise, puzzles. Pokemon Ultra Sun, Faxanadu, Gigasword. Yes, yes, and yes. I don't have a favorite movie type. I like a little of everything. I don't like gore or gross movies. Music...video game OSTs, 2000s-ish rock, electronica.

unlabelledView post →"I love the game, but High Wall feels like a hundred screens of abject bullshit that's just there for 'difficulty'." As seen in the #Gigasword Discord server. This is the last area, which I'll be heading into the next time I can play. Cannot wait, sounds like a swell time. /sarcasm
unlabelledView post →Astral Band and Astral Owl acquired. This game continues to be so fun. #Gigasword
unlabelledView post →As it’s a game whose graphics and design very much emulate the NES era, I both wish Gigasword allowed me to mark where I’ve found things I can’t yet access and acknowledge that’d be too modern. Probably just going to find a guide (if such exists) once I’m close to the end of the game.
