It really was a lot of fun. Except for the time pad puzzles. Those sucked.

Happy breakfasting! I really need to go grocery shopping, as I am down to just a packet of oatmeal left in the cupboard for breakfast food. I just can't seem to muster up the enthusiasm to leave my AC cooled little cave to drive to the grocery store, don a mask, and deal with shopping during COVID today.

I am avoiding the hype around the PS5 and the new Ratchet & Clank game because I know I won't be able to afford one until there is at least one price drop. New consoles have a terrible tendency to cost more than a month's rent for me. I will eventually get one because of Ratchet & Clank. I can't help myself, even though the PS4 reboot was pretty meh.

It crops up for sale on a fairly regular basis in the PSN store. I think I paid half price for it.

Indeed they are, Matt, indeed they are.

I love how all of thatgamecompany's games have a similar vibe, but very different feel from each other. When Jason and I were still living together, he wandered out from the kitchen one night while I was playing Flower and watched for a little bit, then remarked that it was like watching poetry. I laughed, and told him that was what it was supposed to be, a visual poem.

I think Yonder may be a download only title, but I'm not sure.

I can find Switch Lites, but not the whole console. I tend to game at home more than on the go, so the Lite is kind of pointless.

The original three Ratchet & Clank games always put me in a good mood. Yonder is another good one, and Flower mellows out my anxiety.

It wasn't a bad game. I just expected better than I got, which was a dumbed down version of the first that tried to cram too many things from all of the games in.

Tempest in a teacup, I promise.
