Martha Mason shows off the "interdimensional portal" in her basement. Just one of the many remnants of the Transdimensional Temple Cult leader who used to own it.
The Transdimensional Temple was a small cult in Columbus, Ohio, that disbanded in 1984.

Crash Bandicoot 4 Review â Bandicoots Are Forever
New Post has been published on https://videogaming.newonline.help/crash-bandicoot-4-review-bandicoots-are-forever/
Crash Bandicoot 4 Review â Bandicoots Are Forever

The increasingly popular reboot-sequel is a hard needle to thread. You have to create a game that hews close enough to the original to make nostalgic fans happy, while modernizing and innovating enough to resonate with new players. Crash Bandicoot 4: Itâs About Time balances the two effortlessly. It impeccably preserves the vibrant look and feel of the original Crash Bandicoot trilogy, while integrating new ideas and platforming possibilities. And like the original Crash games, the hybrid of Crashâs old and new ideas will test your platforming skills in interesting new ways.
Like its groan-inducing dad-joke of a subtitle says, Crash 4 is about time⌠travel. When the villains of Crashâs past open an interdimensional portal, Crash and Coco have to collect a set of quantum masks in order to set things right. As with past Crash games, small exchanges in cutscenes between levels do a lot of narrative legwork. Itâs not much of a âstoryâ per se, but Crash and his friendsâ charm fills in the gaps and makes you care enough to follow along.
Crash 4âs time-traveling story takes you to all sorts of times and places, including dinosaur-infested jungles, futuristic cities full of flying cars, and sunken pirate ships. Every place you go feels lush, full of color and detail, with a painterly quality thatâs simply wonderful to run through. My favorite is the Mardi Gras world, where Crash and Spyro balloons float in the background as you hop over neon-colored flames and trumpet valves. Occasionally, youâll run through an area and the camera will pull back to let you take in the scenery. The environments never failed to impress me with their visual depth.
The best thing I can say about Crash 4 is that it mostly feels like classic Crash. In my mind, Crashâs signature is in the way the camera moves to create different perspectives from area to area, giving each set of jumps a fresh feel. Sometimes youâre moving left to right, while other times youâre running away from the camera or bouncing straight up from box to box. Crash 4âs long levels are chock-full of carefully plotted platforming sequences, which require quick reflexes and the ability to think on your feet. The dynamic design changes things up frequently, making every level feel winding and unpredictable, with every new set of platforms presenting a surprising, exciting new challenge.
It still feels classic, even as it introduces new mechanics. Once you find each of the quantum masks in the campaign, they will start to appear in levels, giving you access to reality-bending powers such as slowing down time and reversing gravity on the fly. Though none of the four powers the masks bestow are wildly original, they are all used to great effect. Slowing down time at the exact right moment to create a clear path of platforms requires just as much thought and reflexes as jumping and spinning, and sequences with each power come with their own lessons to learn and quirks to master.
In addition, each world includes optional levels that allow you to play as some of Crashâs friends, including Tawna, Dingodile, and Dr. Neo Cortex. Each of the alternate characters have their own skill setsâCortex, for example, cannot spin or double jump, but instead has a gun that turns enemies into platforms and an air dash. Levels built around these skill sets create even more room for variety; youâll see new situations and need to approach challenging platforming puzzles differently. The downside is that switching from any of these characters to Crash or Coco, or vice versa, can lead to some muscle memory mix-ups and accidental deaths. Itâs a momentary annoyance, but one that creates a slightly bitter aftertaste whenever you play one of these levels, especially during the campaign.
And mastery is crucial. From early on, Crash 4 insists on precision. Many platforming sequences demand you land multiple jumps in rapid succession with perfect accuracy and timing. Sometimes, the difficulty is invigoratingâan action-packed puzzle for your mind and fingers. Occasionally, though, it feels as if the game expects more of you than it should. There are times when youâll land on the edge of a platform and fall to your death, only to wonder whether or not you should have been safe. Those frustrations are fleeting, though. More often, the next success is close enough at hand that youâll want to keep trying.

And merely finishing the campaign barely scratches the surface of the experience. Crash 4 is truly a perfectionistâs delight. Each level offers up gemstones and a character skin depending on how many wumpa fruit you find, how many boxes you break, and how few times you die. Each level also boasts a time trial mode and an âN.Vertedâ mirror level, which not only makes you replay it backwards, but also with a creative visual filter that may make it easier or harder. The N.Verted levels are especially interesting as they let you see Crash 4âs vibrant levels in a completely different light.
Even more so than playing the N.Sane Trilogy, which literally remade the original Crash games from my youth, playing Crash 4 felt like getting back in touch with the series. Itâs an injection of new ideas into now-classic gameplay that surprises and delights, even as it feels like a homecoming. Truly, games like this are why we come running back to long-dormant franchises with open arms.

My bad.

Wearing a mask is much more dangerous than death!!")Panel 2: (Kim, wearing a mask: "Hmm these alternate realities so many people are living in can only mean one thing...")Panel 3: (Kim, next to an open fridge with a swirling cosmic portal inside: "Oopsies, I left the interdimensional portal fridge door open again!")]

Iâm spiffing up my recent Disneybound outfit of Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls for convention use, and Iâm pretty darn proud of how the design of this patch came out! Â I based it on a screen capture of the activated portal in the episode âA Tale of Two Stansâ and a drawing in the published regular edition of Journal 3. Â Acrylic on black canvas, with a 'stay weirdâ glittery patch from Hot Topic that was lightly tinted with yellow paint to tie in with the color of the rest of the costume. Â I also added translucent glow-in-the-dark paint over all of the painted details as well as the otherwise unpainted geometric designs outside of the central disc. Â If I find a way to photograph the patch glowing in the dark Iâll update this post, but at the moment I havenât been able to capture the effect. Â Each side measures 8.5" long. Â

Today in Strangeness:
On November 26, 1885, the first meteor trail was photographed in Prague, Czechoslovakia. It was part of the Andromedid meteor shower. Observed over Oakland, CA on this date in 1896 was a "giant cigar shaped ship"; it was one of thousands of mysterious airship sightings that continued into the spring of '97.

Dialogue inside my head just now: 'So, what are you doin' at 1 am?' "Oh, you know, painting an image of an interdimensional portal to the Nightmare Realm. Like 'ya do."
