A random grab-bag o' MD from our collection!

LET'S GO MD FANS

It's taken three laptops, a *lot* of work, and even more stress, but I've finally cleared Shining the Holy Ark! Now all that's left to do is turn 16000+ words worth of notes into an interesting article...

I just want to hug Windows 11, gently stroke its hair, and tell it that it's OK to look and act like a PC~ You don't have to be a crummy sanded-down tablet-like "app" device that restricts my access to everything and assumes I'm terrified of file extensions, sweetie

put more mega drive games on the timeline imo

Anyway, the collection is newly organized for the time being. I’m generally not a fan of double stacking, but they’ll be fine like this until we move to new digs. (I need to pull Mahjong Cop Ryu for “on deck” status once my Popful Mail run is done)

Getting the important bits sorted… (I need some PSO-themed stickers…)

Urgh~ The random button on my site has randomly broken…

This is one of those games where it's really easy to mean to buy it and then wait for a sale and then "yeah maybe next time but you do look neat" it and all the other one-off games that could've followed it out of existence. It's worth the RRP. Promise. We need to support games like this.

Devil Blade Reboot is a spectacular game. One of the best shmups on Steam, without exception. Let me tell you why: ko-fi.com/post/Devil-B...

I, um, I didn't expect so many people to be invested in my laptop saga... Thank you for the kind messages! It's been tough at times*, but you've really helped me stay positive! *I know "fancy laptop stops working" isn't exactly a "real" problem, but I use these things for ~everything~, so...
