I was feeling pretty stressed out at work. Deadlines upcoming and all that. But I listened to the soundtrack for Gris whole working and I feel so much better. It's crazy how much music can help. I might replay the game this weekend. Listening to the music filled me with hope and DETERMINATION.

#RetroGaming Did you know?
- #WingCommander *didn't* hack a DPMI error when it closed. That's a myth.
- #Myst was written in HyperCard on the Mac, w/ a plugin for big 256-color images. Broderbund created a custom(?) engine to port it to Windows.
- #Undertale has some wonky code, but it still works! Good code is only important if you want your game to run on a 486 (I wish Undertale ran on a 486!)
- #SimCity2000 for #Windows3 had a use-after-free bug that #Windows95 was patched to accommodate.
@eniko please links to all of it. I know for you it's mildly traumatic, but I would loooooooooove some good fun.
My take is the opposite of the hypothetical authors. The fact that I have only like 1.5 games to play — #Undertale and #InvisibleInc, and maybe #DeusEx and #Thief (?!) is the legacy of white cis male fetishist #IdSoftware company and their senseless #DOOM (nb! I love #doomRL, I don't know what's wrong with me. nb! I've completed #DOOM, and I kind of liked it. But it actually contributes to the point).
The logical continuation of this were horrible, misogynistic #DukeNukem and racist #ShadowWarrior (I **loved** #ShadowWarrior as a kid, because I didn't see racism behind the veil of diversity, nor could I understand English enough to "appreciate" main character's "jokes").
Of course, certain people would miss this descent into the circles of hell (no pun intended)!
I want to live in a world where none of this have happened and Carmack was at most a hippie, not a filthy libertarian.

@eniko that's smart! I like it. It's kind of like the skeleton fight in #undertale where there's a strat of taking enough damage for the skeleton to get bored. I solved it myself using 1 fight and a bunch of consumables, proud of it. It felt so close. Ahhh. Undertale is so good :3
