Game Plans

Sundays:

A set of games I can play while watching the other streamers on the multistream and interacting with chat. Must fit the format of shorter (2-hour) streams.

 

  • Donkey Kong Bananza

  • Picross S (when I need a break: S2)

  • Power Wash Simulator (between games)

Choice Games:

A set of games I really want to play, whether by express choice or a sense of obligation. Twitch viewers can populate this with a points redemption. Presently, I am finishing series that I started earlier and then gained further access to series entries after finishing the set.

This set is on Mondays & Saturdays.

 

  • Final Fantasy

  • Hollow Knight: Silksong

  • The Legend of Zelda (on deck: Twilight Princess)

  • Metroid

  • Pokemon
  • Wonder Boy

Event Games/Etc.:

Games and other streams voted on by the community for certain events. Most often, this is for annual events such as my Twitch Affiliate anniversary and my streaming anniversary, or as a break between finishing game series. There can be more of these if Twitch subscription milestones are hit.

 

  • 5-year Stream Anniversary: Breath of the Wild 100%
  • Between Twitch series: model building
  • First Saturday monthly: Hollow Knight Randomizer
  • PSI Hope 5: Oct. 19: Hollow Knight Archipelago

 

FROM CALM TO STORM

I guess there won't be another divide.


The juxtaposition of the two zones is certainly intentional. They did that with The Divide as well, of course, with a jungle and a snow area, but it feels more stark with the paradise directly above the Tempest Layer. They say that they help the songbird to give them good weather by feeding it bananas, but I'm not sure what they think "good weather" means if it's still called the Tempest Layer. Certainly not the same as the Resort Layer's weather. However, they did say this was exceptionally bad weather, so at least we're agreed that tornadoes and lightning that specifically target apes are not normal.


DK has a way of feeling super powerful while also really wimpy. In every game I've played with him, his health feels not nearly enough for the challenges of the game. Mario at least gets two or three health in most games. (64 technically had 8 health, but in effect it was more like 3-4.) However, DK has exactly 1 HP in the original Country games, and he only gets 2 in the Returns set. While I do have about 8 hearts here, most foes and hazards deal 2 hearts of damage. As a result, while platforming and destruction are not challenges for him (unless you have a distance to jump), good luck if you need to tank any damage.


Given the statements from the Elephant Elder, I think that Pauline's special power is just the fact that her singing transforms DK. I have no idea how this is required for working with the Banandium Root, but... I feel like the Exploritone might actually be plot relevant. The end looks like it's coming up fast. Only one transformation remains, and then there's probably only one or two layers before the final boss.
