Hi my brain got taken over by YT recommending ANTIVILLAIN by ivycomb & Stephanafro and kind of was perfect for the “2023 vs 2024” energy thing I was doing. Granted I have something specific I wanna do for that but OOPS
What would Simon think of their future self? What would the vampire think of its past self? I think this would be pretty accurate if somehow that interaction came to pass
Okay now I’ve done this incredibly teenage lyric posting I really gotta work on badges this was a quick aside

PictoQuest: The Cursed Grids
I picked up PictoQuest a while ago, I forget the specific reason but I think it was on a ProtonJon stream? Eitherway I picked it up in 2020 and then unceremoniously dropped it and I’m not sure if it was because I got bored, got frustrated or because something else grabbed my attention later.
It’s not a bad game though, it’s exactly what it claims to be, a nonogram puzzle game (or Picross if that’s the name you recognise more but that’s a licenced name for video games as it’s owned by Nintendo) with the twist of adding a vaguely RPG mechanic to it with “Monster Grids”, where enemies attack you as you solve the puzzle on a timer (or if you make mistakes) but you can slow down the attacks and ultimately defeat the enemies by clearing lines until you complete the puzzle. There’s also items you can buy via gold you earn for beating the Monster Grids as well as the grids with treasure chests etc.
My issue with PictoQuest is that I guess I’m slower than the devs intended and I always felt like I was being rushed along on the larger puzzles. I did it mind, I 100% cleared the world map! But it did leave a bit of a bad taste to me lol. Not the fault of the game though, PictoQuest is doing exactly what it set out to be in the end!
It’s worth it if you like Nonograms but if you like doing them at a leisurely pace, it might not be for you.
Sunshine Heavy Industries
This honestly won’t be very long as it’s a short game but a delight all the way though. You can see how the humour and ideas in this moved on to Cobalt Core, which is very cute. Plus now I know that Dracula is non-fiction, and he requires vast chambers for, liquid! Me too tbh.
It’s a great game if you want to kill time and build silly, I’M SORRY I mean perfect ships that make complete sense!
Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove
Okay technically I did Shovel Knight’s campaign, “Shovel of Hope” before the other campaigns were added so really this is about Plague of Shadows, Specter of Torment and King of Cards! Not Showdown though as I’m not too interested in that currently.

So given some changes that happened after I got bitten by a vampire just before new years and the fact that it caused Identity™ to happen to me, I broke that promise I made to myself at the end of 2023 to not do any references in 2024. OOPS. Granted this one didn’t take as long as DarkOverord’s reference, just two months between poking commissions and other things, though I’d have gotten it sooner if I didn’t go “mmm bat too :)”
So there we have it, it’s now Super Official that I’m a very sharp fangy creature! As if the fact that I hadn’t dropped this after almost four months didn’t make that incredibly obvious…

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition
Steam Page (The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages)
So I forced myself to actually beat Skyrim. Not in a negative way but in a “I’ve put more than 300 hours in to this game and never beat the main story I REALLY SHOULD” so I finally did. I mostly always got distracted by new releases, which Stardew 1.6 almost threatened to, but this time I said I’d finish before I do anything else so I did!
It’s uh. Skyrim! What can I say about it as a review that thousands of other people, some of which it’s their job, have said before? I do find it more fun than Oblivion, I think it’s fun to run around as a lizard, and so on. But… well here’s some things I guess?
- The main plot is, neat I guess? Kind of dull!
- The Civil War plot is just dull at best, and not good in general. If you’re playing as an Argonian or Kjaiht you have no reason to join the Storm Cloaks, but also the Imperials are shit too! I finally did it (Imperial) to finally say I did it
- The good stories as always are the side stories, be it major like the Thieves Guild or more minor ones like the Daedric quests.
- Never play it without mods
- I never use the shouts! All these abilities and almost all of them feel inferior to… being a werewolf! Or stealth kills! Or the bow! Wow!
And that’s it really! Woo! I did it! Only 450 hours before I finally did! I hope you didn’t expect an actual wordy view of the game. Again, it’s Skyrim, there are people who have made much better posts about it than I.
