  • On Android:

    Godville is 24 MB, a zero player game where you create an adventurer who goes out and quests, collects loot and equipment, rests at town to sell things, tames a pet, joins a guild, etc. you can influence what they do, but they do it all automatically and you can just observe!

    Impossible Dungeon is 35 MB, idle non turn based dungeon crawler with incremental upgrades, I really like it!

    Not sure what you consider low MB, I couldn’t find any more that I’d heavily recommend at 150 MB so I cut it off there




  • I have had two Harley Benton bass guitars, a 5 string fretless, and a 5 string PJ combo, and they both shit the bed and ceased to work in under a year of light usage, both times it was cheap electronics (the pickups).

    That being said I have many friends with Harley Benton instruments and amps and they all work fine still, I just got unlucky. Of course, cheap parts are cheap parts and will be more liable to fail than better ones. It is still a lot better than it used to be.




  • I like psychologically interesting movies, though my favorites aren’t necessarily all like that. Some big ones for me:

    Spirited Away - Miyazaki film about a girl who stops off at an abandoned amusement park while driving to a new house with her parents, who eat food meant for spirits and become pigs. She is unable to escape and ends up in the spirit world, enslaved by a witch who controls a spirit bathhouse as the protagonist attempts to rescue her parents and escape

    Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - a man and woman break up in a very lightly sci fi world where it’s possible to erase people’s memories, and they choose to erase each other and inevitably the man regrets it as it’s happening in his mind

    Perfect Blue - animated Japanese film about an Idol who tries to escape Idol life by becoming an actress, which is an incredibly difficult and stressful process as she deals with a stalker and the film/TV industry at the same time. As the movie continues she becomes so stressed and tired that the lines between reality and the films she’s in begin to blur together and she starts to lose grip on reality.

    21 and 22 Jump Street - FUCK they’re just well written and well executed comedy.


  • Some single player games I’ve replayed often that aren’t roguelikes would be…

    Dishonored Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 Prey 2017 Hitman, but specifically the World of Assassination games Bethesda RPGs Grand Theft Auto/Rockstar, specifically for me 5 or Red Dead Redemption Dark Souls (I replay it on offline mode predominantly anyway) Dying Light Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor/War Halo MCC campaigns Mount & Blade series Katana ZERO Vanquish/other platinum games
