trying to power scale gamer's slayer and ridley... you think about it for one second and it's like obviously the slayer would win right? but if you think about two seconds, ridley's ability to come back from death is a godlike feat... it's even sadder when you think about how ridley comes back again just to die again... so probably they're evenly matched, repellent to each other, yet secretly both of them hoping the animals get stuck on zebes
love how the games built on each other and culminated, and the ways they were different but thematically linked. but more importantly, kas and neb are my friends now
never imagined I'd feel emotional about the gnostic battle between game's and slayer's. may we continue to fight every battle and keep our brilliancy

genius level design and giga genius boss fights. if you're not familiar with homebrew and romhacks, then you'll be surprised by the slim margins of success here. but in those margins are new frontiers of action game's. don't be afraid to die, keep trying, for every narf!
the frame story was a nice touch, classic & makes you think about the "real" parts going in and out. when the lyric poetry started I was awake, really appreciated the stylization there. very cool game
really enjoyed the limited, perverted domesticity, as the floating vignettes give a better sense of alterity than anything else. when you have something untouchable, unlike anything else in the world, it might be gone a moment later, when it starts to resemble something else
wow, the underwriting... or the overwriting... of the source was impressive. a dense text that makes me think about the distance in language and values, a love decoded into sickening empiricism
making me think about different layers of reality, or how many interfaces u do, each mediation of technology in succession. making me think of all the lonely hearts and hopeless wishes along the way
