rynling"I’m playing Salt and Sanctuary because I can’t keep playing Ender Lilies on an endless loop," I wrote a week ago.
Guess who is once again playing Ender Lilies?? Ender Lilies is so good. It is so so good. Now that I'm a bit more skilled at playing the game, I'm able to pay more attention to the background art, and I keep noticing new details. This is a hardcore dark fantasy game, so all the details are horrible, but still. I'm also starting to notice new details about the sound design as well. For the rest of my current playthrough, I'm considering turning off the BGM so I can enjoy the ambient sounds, which are like the white-noise nature sounds of the apocalypse.
Surprisingly, I'm still playing Ocean's Heart! I say "surprisingly" because the game was supposed to be short, but it's actually incredibly robust. What an absolute treasure. I think Ocean's Heart has the potential to supplant Link's Awakening as the lo-fi handheld Zelda game I play every summer. Or I could just play both?
Not to be weird or anything, but I love living on the same planet as video games.
