Game Review:
Yet to finish as most of my friends can’t stand horror games but I got one to play for a bit with me!
I am not good at video games, like really bad. I have multiple issues that affect my coordination and hand movements but this game was accessible enough. It really only uses the mouse and WASD, plus it’s possible to pause in a safe starting place.
Mechanically, I adore the camera and flashlight. One player can use a flashlight to shine on and scare away monsters. The other, can banish them by taking photos (as long as the light shines for long enough on the monster!)
Visually, I love the twisting, pixelated, almost 2D till you get close enough map design.
Conceptually, I adore the trying to build this body objective (literally putting flesh on a skeleton) combined with the visceral, literally just body parts, monsters. It’s rated 18+, for, warning, pixelated genitalia. If that is something that isn’t a dealbreaker for you then, honestly, this game does a great job at derealising the biological.
Pros:
Free!
Co-op
Basic WASD and mouse controls
A variety of steam achievements
Pixelated visuals for distinct style
Cons:
When you die you have to completely restart
Apparently it only takes 20-30 minutes to play through in one go
Might not have the best replay value
Overall: 4.5/5

I’m realising I have so many bizarre Shakespeare related stories. For English, we had to do a ‘fun’ summary presentation. Somehow one guy ended up convincing our group to write and later perform to the class a parody version of uptown girl. This was accompanied by my recently ex-boyfriend of two weeks (who still was not speaking to me or sitting any less than three seats away from me - even if no one else was sitting there) playing the song on flute. ON FLUTE.
I would say that luckily that no one could hear us over the damn flute. However, another girl had made a karaoke style PowerPoint video creation, so that everyone could see our terrible lyrics on the screen clearly.
a sample of what I can remember:
Capulet girl She's been living in her Capulet world I bet she's never had a Montague guy I bet her momma never told her why
it is the most dreadful thing I’ve ever been a part of and I did high school theatre .
And I know it's true, that visions are seldom what they seem

I need you to know that I’ve submitted a story of mine to watcher for the nest season of too many spirits - like if my story gets picked I’m going to making a whole separate blog for Shaniacs with ghost experiences - and will be publishing asks lol
Also yeah - go Shane! Go all of us! Like whether or not you believe in ghosts I always think experiences are just fun :)
okay so I’m going to try and make a poll here goes nothing -
(and if anyone asks me to define ‘experience’ ;-; it’s literally just want any believer would define as evidence for ghosts/supernatural/paranormal/other-worldly - use your brain or at least your blood imagination’
very useful - I’m just getting back into art (admittedly I’m doing it digitally rather than on paper now) - also lol - some relatives of mine have straight hair on half their heads and curls on the other. It’s something for sure.
I got an ask from someone who felt timid about drawing curlier hair and wanted some advice! This is by NO means exhaustive and is mostly just my thought process for my own stylization. There are tons of resources for drawing more textured hair, so for this I just wanted to focus on curls. hope it helps!
