Right now, I am coming back to streaming on YouTube with Post Void for Short Game Fridays.

This stream will most likely be extremely short due to its intense flashing imagery and strobing lights. If you are photo sensitive or have a history of epilepsy/seizures, I highly advise you to skip this stream and take care of yourself. I will be back tomorrow night for more Banjo-Kazooie.

After having it languishing in my wishlist since Early Access, I’ve finally purchased BlazBlue Entropy Effect and now have to sing its praises after 3+ hours of play so far. Beyond watching a comprehensive lore video a few months ago I’m critically unfamiliar with BlazBlue as a franchise & have only ever admired it from afar as just a general Arc System Works fan who was more occupied with Guilty Gear. I’ve always loved the character designs but honestly might need to rewatch the previously alluded to lore vid to recall the bonkers story simply because of how I’ve been loving playing as the various characters in Entropy Effect. The game is a Roguelike yet has doggedly stuck to the fighting game roots of the main series which ends up genuinely turning the game into a fantastic Spectacle Fighter experience with various character combos that consistently end up producing the ballet of pain the genre is known for. It’s a joy to play every character I’ve unlocked so far with all of them having distinct styles that genuinely make me want to switch between different characters every run.

The game is also an absolute revelation on the Steam Deck; running flawlessly & serving as a perfect portable experience that one can tuck into for as little or as long as able - qualities I say all the best roguelikes have or at least should have.

Overall, it’s a hype as hell game that makes me frustrated that I don’t live in the timeline where Skullgirls is instead the underappreciated Fighting Game franchise that earns a quality roguelike spin off like Entropy Effect.

If you like fast-paced and varied roguelikes, Spectacle Fighters and/or are simply a fan of BlazBlue looking for a fundamentally unique spinoff from the series, then I cannot recommend the game enough! That goes double now that the game is in v1.0 with a potential roadmap that will bolster both the content & the roster of characters.

also there's something kind of funny in the fact that i've never really played deck builders or card games and i've never played roguelikes or roguelites or any of that

but

apparently roguelike deck builders are where i make my exception 😂 just gotta combine the two!(inscryption and balatro ftr)

Unfortunately, the collaboration between @hollyjollypaca and @jaykingwrites will not be happening tonight as Hollyjolly is currently not feeling well. At this time, we do plan to reschedule the Monster Road Trip collab to Friday, August 4th, at 7 pm CDT.

Instead, I will be playing @pixadome 's Chenso Club for Short Game Fridays. You're more than welcome to join.

Please make sure you wish HollyJolly a swift recovery.

The Rogue Prince of Persia launches in Early Access on May 27

From Gematsu

The Rogue Prince of Persia will launch in Early Access for PC via Steam on May 27, publisher Ubisoft and developer Evil Empire announced.

The game was originally scheduled to launch on May 14, but was delayed to later in May following the surprise launch of Hades II in Early Access on May 6.

Here is an overview of the game, via Ubisoft:

About

Experience a fast-paced, challenging but accessible roguelite as you master acrobatic moves and flow seamlessly between platforming and combat. Find new weapons, equip trinkets with special effects and upgrade them to make your own builds. Discover new characters, information and areas as you try to find a way to save Persia from a Hun invasion and become the hero you have always wanted to be.

Key Features

A Persia in Peril – Lead the Prince in his fight against a Hun army corrupted by dark shamanic magic and find your place in the royal family as you explore a vibrant reinterpretation of Persia. Put the pieces of the puzzle together and discover new areas as you enter the fight again and again, meeting a cast of colorful characters through non-linear story progression.

Become the Prince of Persia – Flow seamlessly between platforming and combat, using your acrobatic moves to outmaneuver and outsmart your enemies. Use the iconic wall-run to open new routes of attack, avoid traps and explore hard to reach areas. Kick and dodge to manage groups of enemies when the odds are against you.

Adapt and Improve on the Run – Choose from a variety of deadly weapons and equip new medallions each run to unleash devastating effects, giving you the freedom to change your fighting style as you wish. Secondary weapons offer even more options, from bows to shields to grappling hooks. Switch your loadout mid-run to adapt to new challenges.

Rise to Meet the Challenge – Unlock new weapons and medallions and learn from your mistakes to become more powerful with every death. New challenges await you each time as every level is procedurally generated, so no two runs are ever the same.
