it’s very much borrowed from one of the reddit subs i frequent(ed) often, but the idea is to share what we’re playing weekly and hopefully create discussions around those games (or simply have a sort of “check-in”).

    I have been playing Tears of the Kingdom, but when my wife has been playing I have been switching in between Serious Sam 4 and the original Commander Keen.

    Commander Keen takes a little to get used to the game feel and style, but I am actually enjoying it pretty well. You can feel a lot of what would go into id shooters. Mazelike levels with a series of key cards, but on a 2d platformer instead of a fps.

      Oh man, Commander Keen! One of the first games I actually owned.

      I’ve been playing a bit of TotK, and also recently pulled out my GB pocket and started playing my old copy of Pokemon Red.

        I never owned commander keen until recently. So I would just play that shareware episode back in the day.
