Bubble Burst, released in 1984 by Spinnaker Software for the Commodore 64, is an action-arcade game where you must prevent creatures called "Zeboingers" from popping bubbles in a bathtub.

You control a target to shoot bubbles at these bird-like Zeboingers as they approach the bubble bath. The game becomes more challenging as the Zeboingers can open windows or turn on showers, which further reduce the number of bubbles. Additionally, you have a limited amount of "bubble juice" each round to defend the bath, adding a layer of strategy.

The game offers two difficulty levels: Level 1 starts from the beginning, while Level 2 lets you begin at the 11th stage. I chose to start at Level 1 and managed to progress well beyond stage 11.

Enstars sure is an experience. Did I miss anything?

Best games for mental health&relax?

As someone who deals with anxiety and depression when I want to relax or am just feeling low and drained I’ll usually choose what others would consider “cozy games” because I don’t want any stress from shooters, strategy games, or anything that has a lot of stakes. I’ll do switch games for now since it’s my main console but I do have a 3ds, psvita, and my computer so I’ll make a list of those games later 💕

So my favorite games to relax to are:

~ stardew valley~ (you already knew this was coming) it’s just a really cute game with lots of options on how you can spend your time. You can farm, fish, forage, travel the mines, talk to the towns people, interact with love interests. There is just a lot to do in it and it has a really cozy small town cottagecore vibe that a lot of people find relaxing. Amazing replay value. I have like four different lives just so I can choose different farms, partners, things like that.

~ animal crossing~ (second most obvious answer) we all know animal crossing is a chill low stakes game that has a lot of similar elements I listed for stardew valley. You get to interact with cute little animals, decorate your house and character, forage, fish, find fossils, shop. It’s just a relaxing and positive game and is very popular for a reason. Idk about replay value because I really couldn’t imagine deleting my island tbh.

~ fashion dreamer~ if you like cute dress up type games this one is a decent lil game. It’s got lots of different styles for whatever your lil fashion heart desires and you basically walk around dressing up characters and they rate your outfits. It’s from the creators of style savvy and while it’s super cute I would wait for it to go on sale because it’s a bit overpriced imo. Style savvy is definitely the way to go if you have a ds/3ds. Still cute though. Don’t know about replay value because I’m fairly new to the game and haven’t come close to finishing or restarting anything.

~ unpacking~ this one is pretty cute and definitely a game that helps with anxiety. It’s a relaxed little puzzle game that unlocks parts of the story as you go along organizing each room to your home. You can try to solve the puzzles or you can just organize the furniture to your liking. Either way you want to play it’s super cute and relaxing and has some decent replay value after you complete it.

~calico~ super cute game where you run a cat cafe in a magical town with unique characters, little missions, and lots of cats you can pet and play with. There is magic, desserts, and you can ride giant cats like horses. Super soothing game. Character customization and decorating your cafe. The only drawback is it can get a bit glitchy but for the cuteness and the price I have no complaints. The music is really cute too. Not sure about replay value because my cafe is so cute I wouldn’t want to start over.

~coffee talk~ you run a coffee shop in the future and talk to all the incoming guests and learn their stories as you give them their coffee. This one is super relaxing and how I like to spend my evenings before bed if I want that extra cozy time to destress and relax. Cute art as well with different species and how they interact. I haven’t restarted yet but I’m sure there will be replay value with just how cozy and in depth the story is.

~rune factory 4 remastered~ this was originally a 3ds game they remastered for the switch and it’s so amazing that they did. One of my favorite 3ds games that is an offshoot of the harvest moon series with very pretty art, farming, cooking and crafting, romance, monster fighting, and just really fantastic story telling. Very cozy and hard not to get sucked into. Such a gorgeous game imo. Fantastic replay value.

~good pizza, great pizza~ you run a lil pizza shop and upgrade it to get better ingredients and equipment. Super cute chill game to pass the time and hard not to spend hours mindlessly making pizzas. Haven’t replayed it because I haven’t completed it but I imaging replaying it would be fun because you’re just making pizza and unlocking different ingredients. Relaxing game with cute art.

~monster prom~ cute game where you have to convince one of the monsters to go to prom with you. Funny writing, pretty art, and the ability to romance any gender while choosing your pronouns. It’s funny, the game play is question based, and it’s like little rounds of 15 mins and either you get them to go to prom or you get rejected. Then you get to try again. Replay value is obviously strong because I keep playing it no matter how often I’m rejected 🥲 being real though this game is funny, unique, and worth the price. I just have to beat the first one so I can try the second.

~what comes after~ you play as a character on a train of ghosts and you process the grief of passing to the afterlife and try to learn and console the other ghosts on the train who are passing. Pretty game that is mostly story based and worth a try. I haven’t finished this game so I’m not to sure on the replay value.

~little mouse’s encyclopedia~ a cute little game where you play as a little mouse exploring the outside and the dirt and you spend your time finding other little animals and bugs and plants and you read about them and what they are. Cute little educational game I purchased because I loved the art that ended up being super cute in the long run.

Honorable mentions:

- speed dating for ghosts (cute funny little game where you go on dates with ghosts. Short, sweet, and to the point. Decently priced for how quick you get through the game)

- cattails (you play as a cat that travels through its little territory you that you share with your other cat group. You gather little things, complete missions, scrap with rival cat gangs, and just walk around as a cat. Cute but a bit slow for my tastes.)

-rune factory 5 (don’t get me wrong, I love the fourth one and I’m sure the more I play this one I’ll learn to love it to. The gameplay is just set up a bit different and is a bit more similar to the harvest moon style than the fourth rune factory. The art is gorgeous though I was just hoping for more rune factory and less harvest moon when it came to the actual playing)

Games I’ve wanted and heard amazing things about:

The only reason I haven’t purchased and played these games yet is because games aren’t cheap and I need to finish the ones I’ve already purchased. That being said I’ve been looking at a lot of these for a long time and they are definitely going to make this list. I’m sure some of them would be ranked very high in the favorite games category as soon as I actually start playing them. Here’s the list:

* Spiritfairer

*Bear and breakfast

*Creepy tale

*Cozy grove

*Witchy life story

*Potion permit

*Hoa

*Littlewood

*Potion craft

*Gris

*When the past was around

*strange horticulture

*Lemon cake

*Wytchwood

*How to say goodbye

*Dreamlight valley

*Storyteller

*Cult of the lamb

*Little misfortune

*Night in the woods

* Sally face

And that’s it 🎉 sorry for such a long list but I wanted to include a bit of everything so you had lots to choose from. These are the games I play when I need a comfy happy place to go when life gets to be a bit too much to handle. I enjoyed making this list to be honest so there will most likely be more lists in the future. Maybe I’ll make a list of favorite otome games, anime/manga, kpop groups. Things like that. Anyway, hope you enjoy reading the list as I enjoyed making it 💖

Volume 2 features landscapes on episodes 3 and 4. Kazuki and Miri walking along the Naka Riverbank. It includes the first CD drama episode about Kazuki and Rei’s first meeting courtesy of Kyutaro. (—>> Part 2)

[Rei ran away from the organisation and then the hotel staff after finding out that his credit card was rendered “unusable.” [Probably because of his father.] He was homeless for a while and able to dodge a kidnapping/murder from other syndicate members [Something to do with ransom money, Rei as the hunted?]. Then Kazuki appeared per Kyutaro’s order. [It was, according to Kyu, K’s “last chance.”] K and Rei fought until the latter passed out because of hunger. Kazuki brought Rei food, who couldn’t guess what he was eating … In the end they introduced themselves like we heard them in the beginning. Kazuki: “Nice to meet you, Hikikomori”; in which Rei replied: “Nice to meet you too, Couch-crasher.” {Take note of the background graphics, I am seeing blueprints/stamps of musical notes, checkered sheets, French dictionary highlighting entries on philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau }Waiting for @marcarella-pizza’s translation if some of my hunches are correct.]

Here is Volume 1

If decarabian was a gamer he would have the most decked out setup imaginable. 2000+ dollar custom keyboard where nearly everything but the internal components are made of solid gold. Top-of-the-line pc entirely encased in various ornately decorated gemstones. He would have at least five monitors (bonus points if they also double as surveillance monitors.) His gaming chair would in fact be a literal throne. At times he thinks that video game logic must surely apply to real life mortal human logic as well and vastly overestimates how durable most humans are.

King of Fighters R-1, released in 1998 for the Neo Geo Pocket, epitomizes the essence of the celebrated King of Fighters series by SNK, despite the constraints of the handheld platform. This adaptation retains much of the original arcade series' spirit and character roster, albeit with necessary modifications to accommodate the console's limited control scheme and smaller screen. The game intelligently simplifies some of the series' intricate fighting mechanics, ensuring the gameplay remains deep and satisfying for fans.

The title offers players a chance to engage in combat with a well-known selection of characters from the series, organized into teams. Each character possesses unique moves and combos, upholding the strategic, team-based gameplay that is central to the series. Despite the handheld's inherent limitations, King of Fighters R-1 successfully captures the dynamic and competitive spirit of its arcade predecessors, providing an engaging experience on the go.

Initially, I underestimated the Neo Geo Pocket's capabilities, given its relatively small game library. However, this game was a delightful surprise, offering solid gameplay, appealing graphics and a challenging level of difficulty (I hate Orochi, lol). I remember being in my twenties, complaining about its limited moveset. I used to say things like, "A more extensive moveset could have potentially made it one of the best handheld fighting games of the '90s." Looking back, it’s clear the developers maximized the potential of the available hardware. Yeah, I was so naive, lol…

sorry the dalamud mention in the outfit one hit me like a brisk smack to the face i can't believe i never put 2 and 2 together but she would totally have been on ffxiv 1.0... may not be a question you have an answer for so apologies, but do you think there's any particular job she prefers playing as?

1.0 gamer toriumi is like my favorite joke KJSJHBFD i actually made it here first (but im gonna keep making it)

it would be so funny if 1.0 was her "home game" after ISO closed. shes like im never getting attached again fuck this 😭

evidence in the comic suggests she does still play xiv though. and i feel like shes enough of a level grinding enthusiast to have every job maxed. but i dont know what her main would be at all. so i'm opening the floor to my followers
