Merry Christmas 2017!

From all of us (okay, it's still just me) here at the tiny corner of the internet tubes that is this blog, plus my Youtube and Twitch channels, I hope you all have a Merry and blessed Christmas.

Marooner's Rock Game Review: Heliborne

I really wanted to like Heliborne, the first game from fledgling developer JetCat Games. Casual survey-sims are rare enough for any subset of aviation these days, helicopter focused sims even more so.

Unfortunately, what I found was a game that tries very hard to lock all its fun moments behind an aggravating progression system and inexplicable limitations on user choices. There's plenty of enjoyment to be had by players willing to invest time into unlocking the game's best moments, too many flaws to recommend it as a starting place for new fans of the genre.

Monday Vlog: Amateur Journalist

I got to wear my real journalist hat and do journalist things! Er, except I didn't sexually harass anyone, so I guess I'm still a rank amateur.
