We hope you’ve enjoyed our game. We’ll wrap it up in the sequel.

I finished Kingdom Hearts yesterday, and it was quite an enjoyable ride.  There was no Psychonauts-style Insane Difficulty Jump at the end, the Disney-themed villain in the last world was a really nice surprise, and even the Patented Square Multi … Continue reading

Claims to manliness.

I have mentioned that one of the games on my far-too-neglected backlog is Kingdom Hearts, the Square-Disney collaboration that has launched a thousand disturbing doujinshi. I think I am approaching the end of the game.  At least, I’m currently in … Continue reading

This won’t help my GPA any…

Started Puzzle Quest today. I just lost four hours. It was just after 7 PM at latest the last time I looked at a clock and now it’s pushing midnight. And my stylus elbow hurts like crazy. I’m blaming aliens. … Continue reading

Jumpin’ Jack Flash IS, in fact, a gas, gas, gas.
